I came out of a coma at 4:45 after taking two advil and a hit of Flonase.  Hooray for nasal steroids.  My teeth and eye sockets have been killing me. Weird because normally the kind of cold I get goes right for the lungs.  Not to say it won't travel there later, but it has had a heyday in my face these past 3 days.  I got tired of wiping aquafore on my raw nose and whining to my kids for the millionth time how much my head hurt. My daughter rolls her eyes and tells me I'm such a baby.  I have no idea how tomorrow will go down.  I'll run as far as I can with Jos.  We'll see how it goes. But tonight after I started feeling better I took a beautiful sunset joggy walk up to the cemetary hill and down.  The dogs were elated to see me come off my deathbed. But my nose is so raw, it stings in the wind.

I'm so sorry you have been wiped out. You are not a baby--it is amazing how simple sicknesses like a cold or a fever can make you feel so horrible. Running with Josse today? That will be fun, but take it easy.

Yes, I'm resolved to be better. We always take our good health for granted until we don't have it. Josse took it easy on me, we ran easy and I'll save my long run for Monday. Still it was hard to breath and my nose still runs and stings...
