Just When I Thought Things were Improving

Have you ever gotten into one of those periods of life where illness just seems to follow you around?  I started out a couple weeks ago with a cold, which has turned into a lingering cough.  Then I've been trying to be good and get my blood sugar levels down so I've been doing a little walking and exercising.  Well, trying to walk outside just aggravates my lungs and asthma with the cold air.  Then I decided to try just a few exercises Tuesday on our Total Gym, but my knees today are so bad that I gimped all around work.  They are pretty painful and pain relievers don't help.  The cold virus just seems to hang on and on.  I went to my mom's house last night to sort through stuff and I don't know if it was the dust or what, but I coughed and coughed and coughed until my daughter was freaked out.  Then when I got home I threw up my nice taco salad I'd purchased and eaten before working on the house and realized I was running a fever and chilled.  Food poisoning?  Who knows.  All I know is I want to get over it.  I've got things to do that don't include coming home from work and falling asleep for two hours on the couch.
