Nibbles Hippo: Home Sick

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know everyone gets colds. I know they’ll go away after about a week. But that doesn’t mean they’re any fun in the mean time. I’m so sick, you guys! I woke up this morning with a terrible sore throat and a cough. My eyes are burning and my head is aching. And my nose won’t stop running. Plumpy took one look at me and said I was missing school. I know SOME kids would be really happy about that (Sparky, for one), but me? No. I hate missing school. I especially hate it when I have to stay home and feel horrible. Everyone is probably having a great time at recess, playing in the snow. Me? I’m stuck on the couch, doing crosswords and blowing my nose. Which is really sore, by the way.

Ugh. I can’t wait to feel better.

    Aww, get well soon, Nibbles!! Take care of yourself, and try the tissues with the aloe in them, those help a sore nose!

    Oh, I hope you get better soon, Nibbles! My family and I were fortunate enough to not get any colds yet. We’re very surprised! But I’m sure some are coming our way, when school starts soon.

    OH.. so sorry to hear that you are sick Nibbles. Hope you’ll feel better soon. I know being sick is no fun so hope you’ll feel better soon. Get some rest and stay warm, and eat healthy. That always helps me get better. You’ll be back at school in no time I’m sure. Get well soon Nibbles!

    hi i am sick too it sucks but the good thing is i get to stay at home and i can go on the computer!

    • oldwooffie says:

      hey! My name is Katelyn too! Spelt the same way even. I don’t get sick a lot, but often. Nibbles, everyone get sick, but you could prevent getting sick by washing your hands after you come home from school, and when you eat anything.
      Hey, saranhandlacey, and starburst; why are you homeschooled? I am just curious because my neighbor was last year.
      Add me!
      oldwooffie (BTW i get head aches, and even migranes a lot.

  9. Steeler86fan says:

    Yeah, that’s no fun.
    I was sick over Christmas — the worst !
    Not only did I not get to miss school, but I felt lousy and everyone else was off and having fun.
    Feel better.

    so sorry to hear you are sick. Hope you get better soon. Drink lots of juice, and if you drop anything don’t bend over to get it. Your head will ache big time.

    • sarahandlacey says:

      • Crazy gal says:

        • starburst says:

          u have not! you’ve only been sick once, POSSIBLY twice but they were just minor sniffles! :roll:

          • Boston ROCKs on picking things up says:

            Just be thankful you didn’t have the stomach flu the week before Christmas, because I did, and not only was it not fun, but it was pretty nasty too

          • sarahandlacey says:

            Sorry, about that Boston ROCKs! Cheers sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:

          • lillyluvie says:

            SAME HERE!
            Well kind of, but worse….. I was sick ON Christmas. :( :( It stunk. I was sick on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I was also sick the WHOLE Christmas break. It was so terrible! I am still recovering from it. I have a cough and stuffy nose now but it isn’t as bad as during Christmas break. :(

            *Luv from LillyLuvie*

          • Boston ROCKs...the worst cold I ever had says:

            Northwestern and I both caught a cold at the same time in June two weeks before school let out. My sinus pressure was so bad, I couldn’t listen to music. The electric guitar cut right through me, and I was so upset, because how else can I put it, I love electric guitar. My favorite group pretty much is guitar. I was rock starved for four weeks!

          • krystalkat says:

            Same!!!!
            I dont like having school on my birthday. AND I have schoolwork. :(

          • WebkinzQueen says:

            I hate being sick too. I also hate having school on my birthday like u kk. My birthday is on Monday. I am in 5th, but due to my weird gifted class, I am actually glad to be going to school, cause I get attention and get to pick sports teams for PE Activity. Does anyone have PE-A? I hate it, oh well happy early or late birthday kk. Lol

            Mistakes are because of my iPad, I can spell, I am in gifted, 5th grade

          • krystalkat says:

            Thanks! its today! Happy early birthday to you too. Im also in a gifted class, we call it MG. Im in 6th and PE is tough when you have to run a mile (Hate running). I know what you mean, Its hard typing on my kindel fire.
            ~KK♥

          • goldenretriver says:

            Webkinz queen, i’m in 4th, and i’m just heading into gifted! I feel sick, but my mom thinks it’s a excuse to stay at home….

            ♥Golden 4 ever♥

          • WebkinzQueen says:

            Wow! I didn’t know how many Gifted kids were on here! The only thing I left out kk, was happy birthday, today! LOL!!!!! Congrats, KK and Golden-retriever, on your birthday and getting into gifted, in my elementary school, we start gifted in 3rd, i had not taken the test but they said i needed to go, on the first day, and on the second day I went! LOL!!!! I am always last in class, but like my teacher says, safe the best for last, he-he. :lol: Is anyone else always last, but not in Kindergarten for some reason.

          • krystalkat says:

            Thanks! I guess were all in the gifted program. Im usually last. In line, in going places, in joining stuff, getting to school. Mine starts in 3rd too but I joined 2 years ago in 4th grade. I dont really like school but I would have to say my favorite subject is astronomy. If only I could pick art and music. I play the violin. ;)

          • ktt08 says:

            I’m in 7th grade and I’m home schooled too and I’ve gotten sick once so far in 2012. I’m sick right now and feel horrible!!! I have a bad cough, a stuffed up nose and every time I sneeze I cough and it hurts really bad. ~~~~~~~~~ ktt08 :D

        • Chewbacca says:

          You’ve gotten sick 2 or three times in just five days? Remember that it’s 2012… :P

      • WackyWebber says:

        Something is going around where I am…ironic. ~WW

    • starburst says:

      I’m really sorry Nibbles! I HATE being sick. :cry: although since I’m homeschooled, it usually doesn’t get me out of school unless it’s something like the stomach flu. :P I hope you feel better though. I know how you feel sorta though, because I have had a lot of headaches lately, even though I’m not sick. :( any way, just rest and you will feel better in no time!

      • sarahandlacey says:

        Yeah, so I’m homeschooled too! I don’t know why, but I hardly ever get sick! Your friend sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:

        • starburst says:

          yeah, my mom homeschools me, crazy gal, and our other non-posting sis. :lol: u might not get sick as much as other people because you’re homeschooled so you aren’t around other people as much. i know that since i have done it i hardly ever get sick anymore. but once i got a bad cold the day i had to do a very important presentation, and i was miserable all day. :cry: i still went to it though! :) sarahandlacey, can you send me a treasure map for the quest? i still need five. ;)

          • sarahandlacey says:

            Yes, I would, but I don’t know what you are talking about! What treasure map quest? Cheers sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:

          • sarahandlacey says:

            Ok, I did it for you starburst! Your friend sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:

          • starburst says:

          • sarahandlacey says:

          • ktt08 says:

          • stargirl says:

            wow! I used to be homeschooled too!!! Ever since I was in first grade!!
            by the way, Nibbles, sorry to hear that you’re sick. Get better soon!!:)

          • ktt08 says:

    • snuggles565 says:

      I AM SICK TOO!! AND SO IS DADDY. I FELL ASLEEP ONE TIME WHEN I WAS SICK( I THINK WAS 2 OR SOME THING)AND I WAS ON THE COUCH, AND I ROLLED ON THE FLOOR!!! I REALLY FELL OFF THE COUCH!!

    • dawndrop16 says:

      Oh, that’s terrible, Nibbles. Drink lots of fluids and get some rest. I hate missing school because then I have to catch up on so much stuff, even if I’m gone for one or two days. Who would want to get sick? Well,actualy, this one kid in my class wanted to get sick so he could get a few extra days off of school. Yep, I’m back to school too. Sigh… :( Anyways, get well soon, Nibbles! ~*Dawn*~
