My Single Mom Life

This flu is kicking my ass.
I cannot believe how bad I feel. I can't hold anything in my head for any lentgh of time.
My memory, my short term memory is affected here. I wish I could fix that. Like take one of the computer memory cards I have tucked in a drawer out, and insert it in my head so I have retention of just minutes ago.
The boys have been telling me stuff, then just a few minutes later, I'm like what did you say? Who wanted what?
They go "Mom, no one said they wanted anything, they asked how you were doing."
Oh. Ok.
Who asked how I was doing?
"Mom, just lay down."

This is the absolute worst I have felt in ages.
My hands are shaky, I'm going through the sweats, then freezing, then when I sleep, I'm having bouts of restless leg syndrome. I keep jerking my legs around.
It's annoying ya know.

I had the boys do the dishes, and Mark followed my directions to make dinner.
I can recall recipes and directions with ease, but 5 minutes ago?
Nope, gone.
Maybe I'm getting Alzheimered.
Maybe, this strain of flu is attacking memory cells.
Anyone else with the flu right now having this issue with their memory?
