Cough Cough Cough

So last night I discovered the power of Tylenol 3. I actually stopped coughing long enough for me to get 6 whole hours of sleep. Normally I'm quite happy with 6 hours. This morning I was ecstatic! After Mr. Red went to work and I moved the cats off me I fell back asleep for another 4.

Only issue was stopping coughing allowed my diaphram to ache/spasm. That was not fun. In fact that was probably the worst pain I've ever felt. Thankfully Mr. Red wasn't quite asleep and he got up to fill the hot water bottle for me to snuggle. It worked.

I'm bored out of my mind. I can only watch so much TV and movies, read so many magazines (on line included). Being even remotely physical starts the coughing fits. Hey but I started a load of laundry! Oh and actually talking to people - out of the question. I called my Dad back after he called earlier this week (I emailed him - I was sick and talking was painful), after about 5 mins of me talking then letting him talk for a few I had to get off the phone because the coughing was incessant. He certainly understood but gees.

One day I'll quit my whining. Really. Promise.
