I'm getting closer to that half-century birthday, but I'm not there yet! This is the 48th anniversary of my birth today.

Unfortunately, I'm recovering from bronchitis, but I went to the doctor last night and I'm on antibiotics now. Today, I think I have a caffeine headache, though, since I haven't been out to eat, since Sunday. We only keep the caffeine-free stuff, in the house. LOL!

I think I'm going to call in sick, to my school job, one more time, though, because coughing is still a horrible experience, complicated by sore muscles. I'm not sure I can handle standing out on the playground and I really shouldn't be coughing all over everyone, either.

I feel like the fever is finally gone now. For the first time, since Sunday night, I don't feel so darned cold! It was bouncing up to 102! Yikes.

It seems a cup of my ginger-peach green tea, has pretty much taken care of the caffeine headache now! I should make tea for myself, every morning! That was nice!

I'm drinking green tea right now. Can't do coffee.

What a bummer to be sick on your birthday. Hope you're better soon!

Ugh, caffine headaches are the worst. Go get yourself a cup of coffee through a drive through, you'll feel sooooo much better! LOL

The problem is, I don't like coffee! LOL! I have enough of a caffeine thing going on, with just Diet Coke! DH went to McDonald's and got me a burger and a Diet Coke. The green tea helped, though. Even before I was done with the cup, my head stopped throbbing.
