Mommy’s Random Thoughts

(3:30 PM Wed.) Tried not to wake my twin up with the sound of my intense gagging and laughter this morning. I have been fighting off something these past few weeks hard–and I mean HARD. I've been sneezing and coughing practically 24/7 to clear what seems like a never-ending supply of mucus, as well as being in and out of sleep to try and recuperate while also fighting off a fever constantly (I keep having heat flashes). But today, at 12 something in the afternoon, I woke up to cough. I thought it was going to be an easy one to get out...but nooooo, that stubborn glob of phlegm wanted to stay lodged in my chest, but in the midst of trying to silently hack my head off, it finally came up into my throat...and stayed there. I forgot to mention how I have an incredibly sensitive gag reflex apparently as when I cough more than 2-3 times I start gagging, so my non-stop coughs paired with the stuck phlegm was a hilarious nightmare lol. I'm coughing, gagging, crying from gagging but also laughter as I try to stay silent enough, but I was able to spit it out into a tissue in the end-so yay! And I didn't wake anyone up on top of it.
