second day sick

this is horse puckee. i have been the least healthy i have ever been in my whole life the last few years. i am on my second day home from work. dunno if i got something from all the guests this weekend or i never really kicked the virus or whatever was dragging me down last week.

i'm sad to start considering whether or not a diet without meat has had any impact on my immune system's ability to ward off crap. i can't see scientifically where it can, i am careful about eating healthy and getting enough protein and supplements in the absence of meat. still, i am frustrated.

maybe the stress and pace of the last few months is taking it's toll. i know being down so much whether it be with a sore back or a sore throat is not exactly my idea of a good time.

now i am praying and keeping my fingers crossed that little ruby doesn't come down with anything. poppy isn't feeling the greatest and neither is lisa. so let's hope all the antibodies in lisa's milk will do the trick for now.

hope everyone else is doing better than i am.

sorry to hear you are sick again...you'd think you'd be at your best health ever, very strange. who knows, maybe that meat protein is a big deal. Couldn't you try it again or maybe just have more fish and seafood or something, to see what happens? I'm no expert of course, but I'd like you to be well.

thanks carihard for all of your well wishes. lisa's mum is feeding me more fish and i'm trying to step up the protein and exercise, hopefully that does some good. i'm just not ready to eat meat again. (p.s. update your blog) love you!!!
