Dealing with the Conference Plague: My Experience with Post-Event Illness

[chefmelody]

Man, I got sick after National Conference, and now I'm sick after Leadership. I missed my workshop today and half of the closing general session to go back and sleep. Blah.

Anyone else get the Conference Plague?

Sorry you're not feeling well...:yuck:


But hey! since you're feeling well enough to be on CS - would you mind filling us in on some news?

It would only be half of the news though, since she slept through the rest...

Oh my goodness, you made me snort!

Melody~ I am sorry to hear that you missed part of Leadership too! What bad timing! Tell your body next time it has to at least wait till you are HOME!!

Hope you feel better soon!

I think most people get sick and conference and stuff because they spend so much energy getting ready for it. As moms we have to make sure meals are ready for DH and kids, food is prepared, we're packed, and on and on and on...if we could just truly take a vacation, we'd be all set... (Whew, tired thinking about taking a trip...but hey, guess who gets to go to HO again on 1/24!!!!)

Hey Melody - how are you on your Director by Leadership goal?

Goal has been revised to May 1st of this year, heh. I've been meaning to change that on my signature.

I'm not sure what news I could post that hasn't already been said... all the big announcements have been posted. And I was so out of it during the part of general session I made it to, I don't think anything I'd post would be accurate.

Didn't go to Leadership, but I had the Conference Plague at the beginning of NC... got a migraine during the first round of workshops and had to miss... are you ready for this... the FIRST general session and the new product announcements! Talk about BLEH! And that was my first NC, too!!!

I talked to SEVERAL people today who were sick. They were suspecting food poisoning from last night's dinner. I would let someone at HO know that you got sick.

Nah, this isn't that kind... it's the sore-throat-headache-dizzy-achy kind. Started even before the dinner last night, which I ended up leaving early too.

Must just be the travel that does it to me... even though I was good and tried to get enough sleep and took Airborne the entire trip!

I didn't even go to leadership and I got sick!!! Double ear infection, sinus infection, Bronchitus, and Strep Throat....
