I’m sicker than you

Around here I’m probably one of the healthier beasts. BJ and Devon have constant allergy problems, the two oldest cats are plagued with hyperthyroid, the middle cat hypothyroid, the oldest horse has no teeth, and the youngest is hypothyroid with an intolerance to carbs.

But every once in awhile I’ll come down with a little sump’in sump’in. I woke up two days ago with a burning throat, fever and a very dry burning nasal cavity. I knew if I laid back and got some rest I’d fight it off, my body is pretty good at that, but I couldn’t resist whining – a little – about my sore throat. I should not have done that. Tisk-tisk.

By the end of the day, my hunka-chunka has come down with the ‘same’ symptoms, except, as he so adamantly put it – he’s got it worse! He’s got a sinus infection. He needs medication, quick! He needs to lay down, quick! He needs to sleep for two six days.

Hmmm. It’s a good thing I’m feeling better. Must be the lack of medication. ;-)
