I am sick of being sick
So I am lying here in bed coughing up a lung and I am totally tired of being sick and not being able to get better. Ever since earlier this year when I got the stomach flu something terrible I have not been able to physically recover. Now it's like any time I come into contact with germs, which, is pretty much every minute of my life since I work wit small children who all have green goo coming out of all of their orifices, I get ill and can't get over it. I have had this sinus infection, bronchitis thing for weeks ad weeks now, and I continue to use my Sinucleanse, drink tea and Emergen-C, I eat oranges, try to eat healthy in general, but nothing seems to help. But I know antibiotics are over prescribed and I am sick of taking them and suffering the side effects of them also, but I am getting to the point where my ears hurt, and my head feels likes it will explode from the snotty pressury build up going on. Of course my mom recommends whiskey, lemon juice, and honey, so I am laying here sipping what I can trying to let the whiskey warm over my soul and lungs in order to finally fall asleep while watching Polar Express on a cold winters eve. ..
