Holy cow I've been sick

Need to freeze time

Monday, April 7, 2008 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

On a bit of a serious note, I have to confess that a lot of my success in life has been due to my health. I don't get sick. Ever.

Let me put it into perspective, until 4 years ago, I never had to blow my nose. I actually didn't know how because I had never had a cold or flu that resulted in my nose being stuffed up.  It was actually a pretty big deal at the time.

But man, I got some virus a couple weeks ago. I've been dog sick. 

I was out of town for all of last week on business infecting people around the country no doubt. 

You can hear me on GfW podcast last week: http://www.1up.com/do/feature?cId=3148397 I'm the dying sounding one. It was pretty bad.

Anyone else there finding that this Winter has been a really bad season for the flu?

I usually get one cold a year, most times it's just a stuffy nose and maybe a cough. Not had one in the past year though, even though everyone around me seems to be getting one.


I just had to go and say something....now I got a stuffy nose, sore throat and a headache!

I usually do not get sick here at all and knock on wood - I've been in pretty damn good health here lately. My only problems is bad habits - like smoking and too much coffee [cappacino]! I stopped drinking alcohol like 8 years ago and that made a major improvement in my health. Plus if I eat like the doctors tell me to eat - I rarely fell bad at all. I get plenty of exercise at work doing tons of walking to and fro work stations. I have to cover a lot of ground to make sure that communications are up and followed properly. Seems people forget a lot and I have to be the one that remembers every dang thing - if I can...
Plus there is always this thing about who you get too close to and need to stay away from - such the like for those that will come to work ill to infect others. I usually take off from work for two good reasons 1. I'm needed at home because my wife has cancer. 2. She has to go to the doctor and needs to be taken.
But I've not had a cold or flu in like years now that I've followed my diet and got enough exercise.
The exercise part is done with moderation. Stress is the number 1 killer for making things happen that are bad to your health.
Having a good piece of mind and keeping in tune with yourself and how you want to feel is the best defense for anything.

Sorry to hear you are ill Brad - hope to hear you are doing better soon !
