Last week I had the flu ,body ackes coughing fever. Now I am not the sickly type and usually just keep going, not this time . Had to take 2 days off .Maybe I am getting older but I felt it this time and then it turned into the croup . Luckily it was cool and that helped me breath . It is the only thing that works for the croup, cold air and musinex . Even feeling as bad as I did I still did the BBQ and this week finished the floor and exterior walls at my daughters place. Now it is sheetrock time so I took today off . I hate sheetrock and this is going to be 30 sheets worth of hanging and mudding . but it is also the last big project to getting her place done.
If I had to choose between the flu or sheetrock I would take the flu. Both will leave me sore and coughing .
Take a few days off, the older we get the faster and closer we get to the edge of no return.
ReplyDeleteYea any illness is worse as we age. Adding into it a physical workload is a disaster. But I see the light at the end of the tunnel. ( it could be a train) Postponing sheetrock EASY .
