I am full of lists. When I can feel myself getting sick:
[sleep]
* Try to go to bed an hour earlier than usual. Don't push it, but.
* Don't overexert myself. (I failed this today, in that I walked a lot.)
[food]
* Eat lots of good, boring food. Make sure to stay on the full side of things. (I am usually not, so.)
* Buy soup or other easy-to-make things. Hell, buy chicken broth and put it in a thermos, if need be.
[water]
* Make tea. (Today's was one of Gypsy Cold Care, one of Organic Echinacea, and a dash of red peppers. Nothing special, but the red peppers felt really nice.)
* Drink tons of water. See also "tea".
[meds &c]
* Take a multivitamin.
* Make sure I have NyQuil.
* Buy tissues or stock up on toilet paper.
[other]
* Clean my room up a bit, as I'll have no energy for it later, and tidiness helps immensely.
* If I'm living with someone, warn them. Same if I've spent close time with someone in the past couple of days.
* Do a load of laundry.
* Take a stupendously hot shower.
I'm good at lists.
