Sick Day



Kendra and I both worked at Vacation Bible School last week.  Although it was a great experience, it left us both exhausted and sick! Along with sweet children attending VBS, comes their germs and these kids enjoyed sharing those! Coughing, head ache, sore throats.  We have called each other every day this week comparing our symptoms.  When you’re sick, you just want to lie around, sleep, watch a good movie and basically not move but in today’s world, that doesn’t always get to happen.  Sometimes, your body just says it needs a time out though and when that happens, you have your "go to" items to feel better. Here is a list of our sick day pleasures:

Go to Medicine:
Kendra:  My essential oils, Epson salt baths, and Benadryl to aid me into sleep land!
Misty:  Ibuprofen, a good cough syrup and sleep


Favorite Feel better Food:
Kendra:  Chicken bullion, toast with Kandice’s homemade blackberry jam
Misty:  Chicken ramen with lots of extra broth, Minute Maid Juice bars


Feel better Movie:
Kendra:  Pretty in Pink or the Princess Bride
Misty:  You've Got Mail or Breakfast Club

Favorite Lounge Clothes:
Kendra: Under Armour pajama bottoms and an oversize sweatshirt
Misty: pair of shorts and a comfy t-shirt

Favorite Comfort Items:
Kendra: Green blanket, mug of hot tea, and my current read
Misty:  Green ribbon blanket and my couch

We want to know what’s on your feel better list?  Please share in the comments below!

  1. Great Blog you guys! Misty, what about Pretty Woman or Dirty Dancing and Sixteen Candles?
    My favorite movies to watch are anything animated. For example: Toy Story, Flushed Away, Shrek 2, or Kung Fu Panda.

    1. Great picks, Dave. And yes, Dirty Dancing used to be my favorite as a teen when I was sick. I also liked Ferris Bueller's Day off because he had the ultimate sick day!
