Taking two NyQuil caplets at 11:15 at night is NOT a good idea -- no matter how badly you want to breathe and/or need to get to sleep. It is currently 11:49 in the morning and I am STILL groggy. I slept well last night, but I don't think it was worth it. I am hoping I sent Jillise off to school with everything she needs, because this morning was a blur. I slept during Jaren's ENTIRE two hour morning nap (thank goodness he still takes those -- someone please slap me the next time I complain that I am homebound due to naps). I picked up Joelle and Maddie from preschool and swung by good ol' KFC for lunch (half price kids meal day). They are downstairs eating them/throwing them to the dog right now. I had half of a Healthy Choice pizza (it doesn't taste very good with a stuffed up nose), two bowls if Special K Red Berry, and a can of Diet Dr. Pepper. And a couple of popcorn chicken pieces, a few Teddy Grahams, and a Cocoa Krispies Cereal Straw. My goodness, I am a mess.
My plan is to put a movie in for Joelle, put Jaren back down for a nap a little earlier than usual and try to sack out again. I have five students today (ack!) and so I am going to be beat again tonight. I think I'll turn in early.

You poor thing! I'd hate to see you the morning after you had a couple of beers!! Just kidding:) I hope the kids cooperate today and you can get another nap, and go to bed early.
I'm sorry you are sick! On the bright side...nothing tastes good with a stuffy nose, right? Maybe you will lose your last 2 pounds :)
Good luck with your students. I hate that morning after grogginess that comes with medicine. Of course, the morning after grogginess from not sleeping because you can't breathe is no fun either!
You do know that I love hanging out with cute babies, and live right around the corner. Please call me if you need to rest, I love to spend time with Jaren (and Joelle of course). Hope you get to feeling better!
There is nothing worse than working while being sick. So sorry!! I did the same thing the other night only mine was tylenol pm at 1:00am. I was a mess the next day, but I needed some serious help sleeping! Hope you get better soon- kam
yikes, that does not sound like a party. Scott is a big fan of the Nyquil sleep/coma, but I can't get myself to gag the stuff down to experience its effects.
I hope you're able to get some restful sleep and awake refreshed in the morning.
I am sorry your sick. I feel for ya. Hopefully it won't last long. Good luck!
