During the last three days, the furthest I traveled from my house was to the mailbox, and other than that short walk, I divided the rest of the time between the couch and my bed. Food poisoning hit me hard! Or it could have been some kind of stomach bug - all I know is as bad as the sickness was, I think being cooped up alone was almost as bad! I had plenty of time to think about missing my hubby, and no energy to visit with friends or work out - my two main forms of therapy! For someone who goes stir crazy after just a few hours in one place, sick times are especially frustrating - especially without hubby to keep me company. I was especially bummed because tonight was slumber party night at my house for some of the spouses whose husbands are deployed and I had to cancel. We rescheduled for next weekend. But I'm on the up and up now and am hoping to make the most of the rest of the weekend!

So glad you're feeling better. I agree, it's very hard to stay positive when you're feeling miserable. My girls and I have all been sick this week too. Thankfully no vomiting, but I echo your thoughts of being frustrated in your efforts to cope. Glad it's over and you can get back into your healthy survival routine again!
