Stubborn, Bullheaded, Pigheaded, thats me

but guess where it got me. You got it nowhere!! I ignored the ear aches, my throat feeling like Mt St Helen, my neck being swollen and sore to the touch, the cough of hacking up four lungs straight from my toes, and a nose like Niagra Falls. All of this and I still kept saying it's just a cold, it's not that bad. Alright I caved today when making a can of soup and doing a few dishes totally wiped me out. Hubby and I made the trip to the Doctor's Office (an hour each way, like we weren't tired enough). We have a sinus infection, bronchitis, swollen glands and I have two ear infections to boot. Now that I am on antibiotics and prescription cough medicine maybe I will really start feeling better and if I hadn't been so stubborn I probably would have really felt better a few days ago. Now I have to miss my second weekend with the grand kids due to my foolishness. I really think this is a woman's trait, they feel like they always have to take care of everyone else but totally neglect themselves. Please remember to take care of yourselves and not just everyone around you!!
