- Being able to eat again.....too bad I'm banned to "soft foods"(which in reality is fine because soup, pasta, and home made mashed potatoes are all good)
- Sprite/Ginger Ale......always soothing on the sore throat and stomach
- Shower......getting clean always makes you feel better and fresher
- Favorite movies or TV shows on DVD or Blue Ray......always a nice distraction (like Doctor Who for example)
- Naps.....helps your body heal and you wake up feeling instantly better than before
- Staying in your PJ's....keep comfy and relaxed
- Becoming a fixture on your couch.....no need to leave the house
- Medication.....of course you'll be in some amount of pain so keeping up on your medication is key to staying comfortable throughout the day
- Ice cream/Popsicles.....cool and soothing for a soar throat (such as mine....I don't think I've ever had it this bad, don't know why)
- Online shopping.....this is a good time to shop from your couch, retail therapy always makes me feel better
