The below pictures of Shiva are exactly how I am feeling this week. I may have escaped the flu but apparently no one gets out of winter without at least one ass-kicking by a virus.
Suffice it to say, it’s going to be quiet around here while I try to climb out of my hole. Dr. Shiva isn’t much help.
She has prescribed thrice-daily romps in the snow along with no less than ten tugging sessions.
I like my plan of green tea, escape literature, and violin concertos.
We’ll see who wins.


























Feel better, and Shiva, stop hogging the blanket!
Oh no, so sorry to hear. Still trying to pull myself out of it as well – it is not fun.
Dr. Bella prescribes lots of rest, cuddling, fluids, more cuddling and those concertos you have queued up. Hang in there.

That sounds awful! Feel better soon. I hop that Shiva takes better care of you than Kolchak takes of me when I’m sick!

Hope you feel better soon. Even more, I hope Shiva can dig deep and find her inner lazy dog. There’s nothing worse than feeling like crap with a crazed dog barking in your ear.
Believe me, I know. Why do you think I refuse to get sick?

It has been so bad lately. Feel better. Though love the “sick” Shiva photos.
Maybe Shiva would consider trading tugging session for some escape literature of her own?

You have a wonderful prescription for how to get over what ails you. If it doesn’t work out for today, schedule it for another day when you just feel like a good book and violin concertos – and maybe some wine.
Hope you feel much better soon. Take it easy and let your body recover.
I am sure Shiva just doesn’t want your germs:)
Oh no! Hope you feel better soon! Shiva is simply adorable under the blankie! My Titan will lay on em but don’t dare cover him up. He spazzes out!

My money is on Shiva!
Feel better! I think your prescription might work for you just a tad better than Shiva’s! I had the flu/virus/whatever on top of a sinus infection and ear infection recently and it took 10 days to start feeling human again. I hope yours departs much quicker.

Get Well Soon. I like your daily health plan better than Shivas but I don’t hold out much hope. Good Luck with that.

Wow! Have you taught Shiva to brew tea, read aloud, and play violin? If not, perhaps its time before the next virus hits. Seriously though, feel better!
Aww I hope you feel better soon! I caught an icky one too between Christmas and New Years. It seems like no one has escaped this year, no matter where you live in North America. But I’m glad the Shivster was there to keep you company! Aren’t dog snuggles the best when you’re sick? They don’t demand conversation or anything, they just give comfort.

Poor neglected Shiva. She looks depressed, not going for her romps.

I think she’ll survive though. YOU get better Kristine!

Here’s hoping you win. And whatever virus it is disappears.
