Sick of being sick

I am so tired of being sick.

I know I'm not the only one.

And I know I don't have it as bad as some people.

But I am still tired of it.

It's not even the dire sick, confined to bed, too weak to function sick. It's the lingering, never going away, constant changing spring weather sort of sick. We cycle through with runny noses, stuffed noses, sore throats, racking coughs, achy bodies and heads (thankfully not much of the stomach bug, I'm not good with vomit) and just when we're done, someone gets something again. S got a major sinus infection Sunday, which I picked up on Monday, and the kids have been up all night coughing. Needless to say we're not getting sleep, we're eating poorly (I sure don't want to cook!) and we're all cranky. It's worse when I don't feel well (breathing well is really important to me) because mommy doesn't get to take a "sick day" to rest and get better. I'm not sure if I'm complaining, or trying to justify the empty refrigerator (I don't want to go shopping) and cluttered house (I sure don't want to clean!). Perhaps both. I know we're not going to die from this, but I'd sure like to be all healthy again. (side note: we rubbed the kids chests and feet with menthol vapor rub (socks over the feet) and it seemed to help them sleep better--it's worked the best so far!)
