Taking Care of Myself

A stomach virus has been going through our house.  Nothing serious but it is slowing people down for a day.  Yesterday was my turn.  I laid down around about 11:30 am hoping to catch a nap and shake the virus off.  It soon became very obvious that a minor nap was not going to work in this case. 

In the years past I have put on my face of steel, sat down at the computer and worked like always.  This would be followed by our normal evening routine.  Yesterday, however, I remembered all of the sick leave that I had accumulated and stayed in bed.  With D home, I let him cover the rest of the day with the kids and I napped on and off. 

Now morning all seems normal though I have not yet ventured downstairs for something to eat.
