Knocking Me And Now My Wife For A Loop
Just When You Thought You Were Getting Better
Not so fast
Speedy
I am not done with you yet
Like a bully
Tossing me around
Having their way
I didn't start anything
You just don't care
You will have fun
The more I suffer the more pleasure you receive
I'm up all hours of the night
Then feeling awful during the day
Tired and exhausted
What is your game?
I wasn't good enough
Now you included my wife
Now that is going too far
You crossed the line
Both of us quickly passing each other
Like we were running for a train
All the food in the house
Looks like a wonderful rose bush
Each rose looks beautiful and different
Until you try to pick one
Then you get pricked with a thorn
Just one thorn hurts so much
You suddenly lose any desire to pick another
Meanwhile, you see everyone else with different colored roses
In vases on the table as a centerpiece
Loved and admired
As their priced processions
No thank you
I am struggling to make it through the day
Everywhere you look
It's one big celebration
My head pounding
It's like being at a New Years Eve party
With the worst hang over
Nothings ever right
Give me my pillow and my bed
All I want to do is sleep through the night
Day four and showing some signs of progress
I can still hear quiet rumbling
It sounds like it is in a caynon
Not too far away
Still not sure if it will create thunder
With it unexpected bad weather
Nobody will be happy
All is quiet now
I close my eyes and try to talk myself to sleep
I tried that earlier
With no succees
My wife has heard from friends
There is a bug going around
People have it for a week
There is not person who says
They haven't been a victim
At one time or another
When I get better
Making sure I am not teased and tortured some more
I will try my best
To tell all my friends
To stay far away from the meanest bully of them all

John Hansen You really understand how great it is to be healthy until you are sick. What a good reminder. I don't want to be here and I can't wait to be back to my old self again. Everything takes on new meaning. Food doesn't even look that appealing. I always love fruits and vegetables. It just takes time. I feel bad for you and your wife who already went through it. We never know what other people go through until we share our stories. Thank you for all your good and healthy thoughts. Here is too many better days. Off to work. The sun is out. Our stomachs are still sleeping. I am trying not to wake up the sleeping giant. Have a great day.

It sounds like you are both really suffering Dream On. My thoughts are with you and I hope both you and your wife recover from this bug soon. My wife and I went through the same about a month back. Hang in there.
