I’m still sick. I’ll bet $5 that I’m not better because I haven’t been sleeping well this week.
I’m no longer achy or feverish, but I’m super congested and every orifice in my head feels like it’s packed with phlegm. I’ve mastered the art of folding boogery, Kleenex-wrapped wontons: the proof is in our overflowing trash cans.
When I’ve gotten off of the couch, it’s just to make another pot of ginger and garlic spiked pressure cooker bone broth, grab a steaming cup of hot tea, or pop another capsule of fermented cod liver oil and butter oil blend. Normally, I’m pretty good about taking zinc early and often when a virus hits, but this time I dropped the ball. Man, I can’t wait until I feel 100% again.
