Cravings while being sick

Hello everyone. Hope all is well with all of you. I have been sick lately. I think it is from doing yard work all weekend and then the weather drastically changed and yesterday it was rainy, windy, and really cold again and I had to help at my daughters track meet and I am rambling....sorry.
My point is that I have NO energy at all, I have a sinus headache, runny yet stuffy nose, all the fun stuff, and so why is it that I am now craving? I was thinking it may be due to having no energy and my brain saying if you take a pill, you will be superwoman again.
Anyone else have this or maybe know why this is happening?
These are HUGE cravings too. I hate it.

I live in the pseudo boonies, I lived in the city the first 10 years of marriage and couldn’t wait to get back to the country. Give me a good woman, a good dog and a good gun and I am happy. Oh, I have all these, life is good.

Hey now, I don't shoot stuff that goes by my window, people are gonna think I'm nuts, well, hey, that's o.k. too....: )    

Bobby, we had a conversation earlier about confused's yard pics....I thought it looked like she might have fairy tale creature running through her property.....I think that would be creepy to see one run by my window, that's all.....I told her to keep 'em outta here...or else I would ask 'em to "make my day".

Tell them to go eat out and you do what you wanna do. This is YOUR time. You need some TLC from them! I cannot even comprehend how hard it must be to have a family and to be sick AND having cravings. Just know that there's tons of other stuff that can help you feel better. Echinacea is good for a cold. So is TONS of fluids. I mean TONS. Yep, make your own saline solution and get it up in your nose. Take some antihistamines if you can tolerate them and get LOTS of sleep. Tell them to calm the **** down and get pizza for the next few nights. That oughta work eh?

XOXO

A serious vacation of sorts is in order here...everyone'll have to use their limbs if you're not around to do anything....at least a change of scenery....I'm seriously thinkin' about gettin' out of here for a while, where to who knows...tomorrow I will have to do something.  My cardiology appt. was cancelled, and I have to take a youngin' to the orthodontist's, so it'll force me to be up and outta here.  After I take the kid back to school, I think a road trip of sorts is in order. I think havin' the ol' "friend" isn't helping things..that's fo' sho'.

You shoulda seen the thing A. was shootin' last time we went, I think it was a .44, and small, which makes it hard to hold onto after that kick!  I've got an optical scope on the Browning, so I won't miss that damned wolf, or anything else.  Well, at least I ain't thinkin' about my back so much anymore, how's 'bout you?  I still need a change of scenery though, every other second I start goin' back to that funky place....Perhaps a shower'll help.  Ahem, ahem...

I was actually thinking 'bout doin' that instead of pulling some damned muscle in my freakin' leg.  Except I'll shoot the Browning .22 instead, that .357 had a helluva kick last time I shot it.  Gotta work my way up.  Besides, a couple well-placed shots with the .22'll have that Big Bad Wolf wishin' big and bad he never came through the joint in the first place.
