Bronchitis or acute infection of the lungs is what I have now. I suspect it is because I’ve been exposed to dust and fumes of harmful cleaning chemicals in the last few days. It started with a throat irritation. I didn’t give it a thought because I was quite sure it will go away soon. Then the coughing came. I tried some home remedies first but when the painful dry coughs and the harsh voice came, I went to see the doctor.  I was then told that I have bronchitis and that I have to take antibiotics along with two other medicines (for the coughing and for the phlegm). The doctor also told me that I have to make sure that there’s enough humidity in my room because enough humidity will help ease the dry coughing.

One cool thing about being sick is that I get to stay at home. I can forget about my job for a while and just relax and do what I want to do. I don’t really feel weak and I also don’t have a fever. Except for the extremely harsh voice and the coughing, I am fine. I can walk around and do some house chores. In fact, I just continued cleaning the basement. We have our new wooden floor and our new tiles already and I want to keep them clean so that means, I also have to make the basement dust free otherwise, we will just bring the dust up from our frequent visit to the basement.

Now, I decided to stop with the cleaning. I will continue again tomorrow if I am in the mood. It is almost 5pm and soon, my husband will be home. I will use this short time to blog because I really miss blogging. It’s been weeks! It’s quite annoying because it is not like I have nothing to blog about. I actually want to blog about a lot of things but I always don’t have the time.

So now that I am sick, I will try to blog my heart out until I feel well again.
