Can't believe I'm ill again :(

I've got another cold it's barely 3 weeks since I had my last! Usually I get one cold a winter if that. I was all geared up to start running again next week as well! I'm hoping it'll pass quickly, but my nose is completely blocked, I kept waking up with a dry mouth last night cos I was breathing through my mouth! Not a happy bunny today!

Oh, no! I'm sorry to hear that. I hope it does pass quickly. Have you tried some steam to try and clear your sinuses? Are the kids sick too?

Oh, that's not fun at all. It would be pretty hard to run if you're all stuffed up that way. I woke up this morning with a scratchy throat and stuffy nose. It seemed to get better after I was up and moving around a little.

What are you taking for it? Are you one of those people that just deals with it? I hate working out with a stuffy nose. I swear my nose runs like a faucet when I work out. I hope you get feeling better soon.

I've been having hot baths to try and steam it out, which does temporarily work! But apart from that I've not taken anything, I only tend to take medicine when I really, really need to! Luckily the kids seem ok! I'm really frustrated though cos I so want to work out! Might try a DVD tonight and if I'm ok with that go for a run tomorrow!

I hope you're able to do your run. Do you think that wearing a scarf over your nose and face may help? How cold is it where you are right now? It's pretty cold over here. We still have some snow on the ground.

It's just how congested I am that's bothering me really! It's not *that* cold here ATM, I think we're averaging about 6c! Hopefully I'll make it out later, if not I'll definitely try something at home. Apparently we're forecast snow for the end of the week!

Rest as much as possible. It is always funny that we have no issues telling others to rest when they are under the weather but seem to forget the same rule applies when we get sick. I never listen to my own advice.

I've been trying to rest, which is pretty much impossible cos I feel so guilty! I was actually thinking earlier how before I had kids I'd have taken days off work and laid in bed all day - no chance now! It's definitely my sinuses again I'm getting loads of headaches, a cough and my teeth feel funny again. Really hoping it's gone by next week!
