The Friday Five

It’s been a quiet week since I came down with my first cold of the winter. I have slept a lot, gone through more tissues than I care to count and drank so much juice, I felt like I would float away. But here are 5 things that actually felt good during my recovery.

  1. Naps. Naps are good! I took a one hour nap each day and it was just enough to make me feel a little stronger and a little better each day.
  2. Tea. Honestly, is there anything that a good cup of tea can’t cure? I think not! I just love tea.
  3. Kleenex plus lotion. These tissues are treated with a drop of lotion, so that my nose has stayed perfectly unchapped and not red at all! This was an accidental buy, but I will keep a box in the house all the time to have on hand for colds.
  4. It’s been frozen and icy and I have felt no reason to go out in this weather. Best part, I do not feel like I have missed anything!
  5. I just need to take the next few days to finish recovering from this cold, because on Tuesday I go to see my Neurosurgeon for my first post operative visit. I can hardly wait!
