12 hour virus - I hope

[MickinMD ★]

I went to sleep around 1 am feeling fine after the Monday Night Football Game.

I woke up around 4:00 am with a very sore throat and soon decided I needed to get up and make some hot tea with honey. I had McNulty's loose-leaf decaf AprIcot Tea on hand. I couldn't find the honey for about 10 minutes and felt drained looking for it.  I drank down 25 oz. watching the morning CNN News and felt a little better.

Around 8 am, I made a nice, soft, ham and cheese omelet and hot coffee and by 11 am the sore throat was almost gone.

At 1 pm, I made oatmeal with soft fruit for lunch and more hot coffee.

Now it's 2 pm and the sore throat is gone, though I feel drained - probably from little sleep.

I feel good enough to run to the store for a few things, including chicken thighs to bake for dinner.

If the sore throat returns this evening, I'll make a hot toddy with more tea, honey and some rum.

I hope it has cleared up: I have my annual wellness exam on Thursday.

Hope this turns out just to be a quick bug. I had about a 2 day bug a month ago which wasn't covid, but made me wonder  until I got tested.  Hope you're feeling better soon!
