winter cold

[sneezes]

Emily was 27 living on her own with a stressful job, and the cold from hell.....

She had woken up on Monday morning, knowing she had work, and knew it was going to be stressful. She woke up, feeling all congested and had a sore throat. She sniffed and sighed, and fell back onto her pillow. She reached for a tissue on her bedroom side, and blew her nose. It made a squelching congested noise, she sighed and sniffed. She got showered and dressed and felt really rough. She got downstairs an blew her nose again. Her nose was still bunged right up with congestion. She got her work stuff together and blew her nose again, she sniffled again, she was struggling to breathe through her nose. She got in her car, gave her nose another blow and set off to work.

She arrived at her desk and switched her computer on. She had only been there for about 15 minutes when she excused herself and went to the restroom. She grabbed some tissue and blew her nose. Her nose wouldnt clear, and she was left with a bright red nose. She continued to keep blowing her nose,a honk was produced, and her work colleague was in there and asked if she was ok. 'dobe' she replied. Her voice was sounding congested and sounded funny when she spoke. She was in there for a few minutes just contniusoly blowing her nose, and getting frustrated that her nose wouldnt clear. She got back to her desk and cotniued to work. She kept sniffling and rubbing her drippy nose. Susie her friend noticed, and handed her some tissues. She said thanks, put them on her desk. She grabbed one and blew her nose. She was completely bunged up, and felt achy and rough.

Part 2:

She sat at her desk, continously blowing her congested nose. Using plenty of tissues, she felt achy and rough, her head hurt and she generally jusy felt like crap. For the next 15 minutes she continued to work, until she had to give her nose a honking nose blow. She continously blew her nose all day. Her boss spoke to her at around 2pm, and told her to go home as she was clearly too ill to be in work. She got in her car and drove home. When she got in she went straight upstairs and grabbed 8 tissues from the box and just blew her nose for about 5 minutes. She got changed, put on her dressing gown and went downstairs, blowing her nose yet again. Her nose was red and raw, but constantly running like a tap. She got up to get a drink, and then sat back down. She just felt like going to sleep, but she had a huge headache and couldnt sleep.

She felt so rough she felt like crying. She heard a knock on the door. She answered it, it was her friend cari. She let her in and they sat on the couch. Cari could tell straight away that she was ill, and grabbed Emily a box of tissues from upstairs a blanket, and sat with her arm round her giving her a hug, and rubbing her back. Emily, blew her congested nose, which was making some sounds, and tried sniffing, but she was so blocked up. Cari got up and made them up a cup of tea, whilst emily blew her nose again. Cari came back down, and sat there with her hand on emily's back rubbing it, and emily leaned back and they sat and watched the TV.

Part 3:

Emily contunied to sniffle, and rub her nose, she reached for tissue, and thick mucus streamed into the tissue. She contunied to blow her nose a lot, just as she was clearing her nose, it would fill back up again. She had to go to the bathroom, whilst she was up there, Cari could hear her coughing away, and blowing her nose, and was really worried about her. She came back down, she was very warm, and shivery. Cari sat back down with her, and contuined to let emily lean back into her, even though she was continolusly blowing her nose.

She kept making honking nose blows, and her nose hurt when she touched it, it was that sore. However her nose was like a tap, if she didnt blow it, it would just stream right out of her nose. She suddenly sneezed 6 wet messy sneezes into a tissue. She reached for another one and blew her nose. She wasnt well at all. She was running out of tissues fast. Cari looked around to see if she could find emily any more tissues. All she could find was a couple of hankies. She brought them downstairs for emily to use. She was very grateful as they were a lot softer on her nose. She continuted to blow thick mucus into the hanky, she groaned, and Cari kissed her on the forehead, and rubbed her hand on her back. Emily felt freezing but was very warm, she a jumper on, and a dressing gown, with tissues all in the dressing gown. She sneezed another 4 wet sneezes into her hanky, and had to blow her nose again. Cari excused herself and went to the bathroom. Emily heard a loud honking noise from the bathroom, and worried that she had given cari her cold......

Part 4:

Emily felt so Rough. She had tissues sticking out of her dressing gown pocket, and a soaked hanky in her hands, she was shivering and was burning up. She gave her nose a big honking nose blow and sighed. Cari however was still in the bathroom, blowing her nose. Her nostrils were turning pink around the outside, and she just said that it was tiredness.

Emily dragged her achy body off the couch to make the pair of them a drink, but blew her congested odd sounding nose first. She got the drinks and laid back on the couch shivering. She kept sniffing, and her throat was hurting now as well, and her voice was starting to sound croaky. Cari came back downstairs with a tissue in her hand, and sneezed 5 times into it, and blew her nose, put the tissue in the bin and rubbed her nose. Emily was laying there, visibly shivering and clearly looked and felt like crap.

Cari took emily upstairs and put Emily into her bed. She then went to the bathroom and blew her nose agian. She used a few tissues to blow her nose and went back in to see emily. Emily was under her duvet with a box of tissues and some hankies next to her. She sneezed 8 wet messy sneezes into her hanky, Cari blessed her after every sneeze, Emily thanked her and blew her nose. Cari turned round and sneezed 4 sneeezes, emily blessed her, cari zipped up her jacket. Cari sat on the bed, and emily passed her a tissue, and she blew her nose.

Part 5:

The pair of them were ill. Emily's nose was red and raw, she was shivering and a sneezy mess. Cari was starting to shiver, she had a headache and her throat was starting to hurt. Emily had to get up to go the bathroom, and while she was in there she blew her nose, thick mucus squelched into the open tissue. She got back in to the bedroom, and Cari was sitting there with a tissue to her nose, and her nose just streaming, snot running into the tissue. Suddenly she leaned forward, and sneezed 5 wet sneezes into the tissue. 'Bless you' emily said, Cari thanked her and blew her nose again. They laid down with the TV on, and between them sneezy sniffly messes. Emily pulled out her hanky, and blew her nose. Her nose made some odd noises when she blew it. They both asleep for the night

The next morning Cari woke up to the sound of emily sneezing in the bathroom. She was having a very long sneeze fit, and snot was dripping from her nose. Cari grabbed some tissue, and wiped emily's nose for her. Emily sneezed again into the tissue that Cari had held over her nose. She apolgised and Cari didnt mind. Emily couldnt stop sneezing, her red nose, was like a tap that morning, constantly running, and she felt so rough. They went back into the bedroom, Emily had her soaking wet hanky in her hand, and Cari had the tissues in her hand. They sat back down on the bed, both shivering, and both leaning back with their arm round each other. Emily constantly had her hanky over her nose, to stop it from running

Hello Sneezes, I think that You Should Keep Going as what you are describing is just about right as I have got a Hell of a Cold at the Moment. I also cant wait for more as this is just how I feel at the moment. Cheers.
