chrissy dinner and bugs

Had the first of the work Christmas dinners.  I felt good til I got home from work, ten minutes later and I really just was not up to going out.   I'll feel better when I get there I said to David and I half heartily got ready to go out.   Must have had to much lunch I mentioned in the car on the way to the venue, don't think I'll be eating  much for dinner.   Half an hour later and even reading the menu was making me feel decidedly sick.    My tummy was now causing me great pain.  I soldiered on and tried to grin and bear it, ordering only what I hoped was a small entree for my main meal.   My head was now throbbing even though I had swallowed a couple of painkillers.   The meal arrived and I tried to eat it but just couldn't.  By now I had had enough of soldiering on and headed for home.   Halfway home and I was beginning to wonder if I would make it.   I pulled the car up to the gates and front door key in hand raced inside and left David to park the car.   Shoes still on I  raced to the toilet and threw up.
PS.  After a nightmare night of up and down I slept for 24 hours and still wasn't too good the next day.    Yep, I was just one of the many to get the bug doing the rounds.   I don't think I have ever been that I'll before.
