I"M NOT WELL

I'm sick. Have been for a few days. I can't talk without going into a fit of  coughing. My ribs hurt.My head has a steel band around it.
Before Christmas,the pharmacy didn't have enough  stock to fill my blood pressure prescription.
It's a tiny little diamond shaped orange pill. .I take one a day. 
I haven't had it for eleven days. I caught  cold.around the seventh day and now I'm  sick.
I hate being sick. Everybody around me hates it when I'm sick. 
Yesterday, I missed an all day budget meeting.
I will miss to-night's  Council meeting. 
There's no point making other people sick. 
Last night, after the word was passed along that I wasn't at the budget meeting and I had called in sick. I got the anticipated   witching hour comment, noting I wasn't too sick to blog post and  telling me what a waste of taxpayers' money I am. 
I had another comment yesterday complaining that I invite comments but  don't publish them. 
It's the only drawback about the blog. 
Inviting comments is like inviting  a person into my home. 
If I do that and a person accepts the invitation, should I expect  my guest  to be rude ,offensive and abusive. 
I don't think so. 
Just because you are anonymous and just because I invited you to comment, doesn/t mean you should forget your manners.
If you can't find the words to express your opinion with civility, don't bother. I won't publish it. 
I'm not into self-flagellation. 
Any more than I like to be sick. 
Not being able to talk without coughing doesn't mean I'm not able to write without thinking .
At least I'm not lying around feeling sorry for myself.
