First I need to say that the soup turned out to be pretty great. He bought the Bear Creek broccoli cheese soup mix and added chunks of cooked chicken and real broccoli. No, it won't help with any congestion, but it tasted really good. :)
I went into the kitchen to put my dishes in the sink. It is, indeed, a wreck. Every cupboard and drawer was open, food and garbage are all over the table- thankfully not any perishable food or gross garbage- and dishes are scattered about what little counter space we have. Oh, I love him and, despite the mess, I am glad that he's trying. I closed the cupboards and began putting away the clean dishes that I left in the dish drainer the last time I felt well enough to do dishes. (If I haven't mentioned it before, we have no dishwasher. There's not even ROOM for a dishwasher in that kitchen.) Turns out that even this much up-and-about time was a bad idea as I ended up coughing so badly that I couldn't breathe.
I am back in bed now. My chest hurts quite a bit more than it did before I got up so I guess I just need to stay down a little longer. I was hoping to wash a few dishes and maybe get a jump-start on the laundry. I don't really feel restless, I just feel like I should feel restless. Does that make any sense? It's the knowing that I shouldn't feel like staying in bed that makes me want to get out of bed but... I don't actually feel like I SHOULD be out of bed. Oh, I'm probably not making any sense. Maybe I should go back to watching movies and stop trying to be coherent.

You know, I had influenza last year (over valentines day - I am sure that work was totally mad at me for that)and I really thought that I wanted to die. We were remodeling our bathrooms at the time and I was so sick that I didnt even care what kind of tile to put in. The kids and I had to stay at my parents house for a few days because Dan had to work and no way I could care for the kids (I mean I could barly move). I was sick for almost 2 weeks (but I was also 12 weeks pregnant - so it took me longer then normal to recover). But really it will pass and its ok that you are to tired to do anything for a few days.
