Sick on SaturdayI have just had a terrible weekend! On Saturday I was so tired that I slept
all morning. When I woke up I had a head ache and my throat was sore. My
body ached all over. My nose ran and I coughed a lot. My mother took my
temperature but I did not have a fever.
My mother made me some soup for lunch and I ate it in bed. I drank
some juice. I tried to read a book but I couldn't keep my eyes open. I lay in bed
all afternoon. I drifted in and out of sleep. I drank more juice. I felt miserable
all afternoon. I didn't want to do anything.
I got out of bed at dinner time. My parents ordered pizza for dinner and
I was able to eat some of it. I drank more juice! I felt a bit better after dinner
so I stayed up. I snuggled under a blanket on the couch and watched some
TV with my parents. I fell asleep in front of the TV.
The next morning I felt better but now my mother had a cold! She looked
miserable. It was her turn to be sick.
