Ich, I hate taking sick days too, Charlie. I would rather be up and moving than lying there having snot clog up my nose.. hence, I am online.
It is helpful to rest though.. I am definately not straining myself like yesterday; think I made it worse by working, then going out with my friend for an hour or so shopping, then cleaning the barn, rat cages, etc.. but at least that's done pretty well for now.
