But I'm told it may get worse first.

I know I'm behind and that I need to post my next part on "You Really Do Want To Promote Your Business, Don't You?".  However, last week I yanked something in my back -really bad- and it's been fubar'd the last 9 days.  I can't write coherently while in pain and sitting at the computer was actually the LEAST comfortable spot.  On Thursday the 11th, only because my spot was already paid for,  I made it (barely) to exhibit at a local business expo...And woke up the next day with the oh so happy realization that someone's sickness cooties landed on me.  It's been downhill ever since.  Lightheaded, nausea, chills and fever and no appeitite.  Those that know me know I DO NOT lose my appetite unless I am really sick.

Yes, I have THE FLU.

Been 5 yrs since I last had it.

Oh and yes, I had a flu shot. Damn good it seems to have done me.

The past weekend has been no fun. The back is a little bit better, but most of me is still for caca.  I can't write coherently while in pain AND doing the flu thing. Sitting at the computer is still the LEAST comfortable spot. It took me 10 minutes to write this much.

So this soapmaker is sick and in pain and curled up in her soap pot, drinking chamomile, lavender and ginger tea, trying to just make it to the next day. I'll get to the next update as soon as I can.  And I can tell you now it won't be for at least 5 days.
