Feeling a Little Better and a Kitty Question For Those in the Know!

Quickly, and then I'm back to bed where I belong!!

I thought today would be the day--the day when I felt 100%, able to return to work. After all, my temperature was done to 99.1 last night--the lowest it has been since Sunday night.

But, alas, my temperature has again risen this morning to 101.4!! So, I'm home again, resting, drinking fluids, taking Advil like it is my very favorite candy (hhmm.......I don't know what this is right now).

Anyway, someone was not very happy with me. Guess who? Well, the way I look at it, if I still have a fever then I am contagious. Do we want everyone else in the entire office getting this? NO!!

I ran out of cough syrup, so I sent Andrew and Cara to the store last night to get me some more. I thought they had purchased the same thing as I had been taking, so I didn't even look at the label (that's how alert I am!). This morning, I discovered that I actually took over double the recommended dosage!! Well, it stopped the coughing for the night, that's for sure!!

Now, my kitty question: My Miles was in heat where she was spayed last week. She is healing nicely, doing everything that kitties normal do--able to jump easily, in no pain. But here is my dilemma--she is still acting like she is in heat!! Rolling around the floor, meowing (not quite as loudly as before) and acting like she is going to mark things but doesn't really!!

Do you think that since she was in heat when the surgery was done that it is going to take a little while to get her hormones back in balance? I sure hope this isn't going to continue!!

And then to top of my wonderful day yesterday, I found that when I made a withdrawal from my ATM that it was processed twice. I only received money once, so why was it processed twice. I called the bank about this as soon as I discovered it yesterday. For some reason, this problem won't be able to be resolved until Thursday because that department was already closed on Tuesday. What happened to Wednesday? Why can't it be fixed on Wednesday?

Well, I'm back to bed and healing for a while. Stay healthy, and whatever you do, try your hardest not to get this virus!! It is no fun!!

Awwww you poor thing... No the kitty will chill out, she just likes being on her back thats her showing off, mine did it too, i use to tickle her, she would make this sound as though she was laughing. It will be ok she will break out of that routine and become this fat and sassy cat!

I pray that you get better real soon
Try and have a beautiful day
Blessings

Bless your heart! Get some rest. I read on another blog that if you put Vicks Vapor Rub on the bottom of your feet when you go to bed...you won't cough during the night. Worth a try...better than overdosing, my friend!

Miles will calm down but might takes a little time.

Get well soon!

Don't worry you'll sleep through Wednesday not thinking about that missing money

Miles will be fat and happy in no time...I've been there sister.

And I second that motion on the Vicks on the bottom of your feet...I have done it too and it works. Put on some nice warm socks, It really does make you feel better.

Get well!!!!

I hope you feel better real soon!
