Finally Went To Doc

So, finally went to doc today, and what did he say: "What toook you so long to come in?" I'm like, what, doesn't everybody wait three weeks of total misery before going to the doctor? Sooo, borderline pneumonia, double ear infection, bring-it-on! hehehehehe. Anyhoo, gave me a nice powerful shot of antibiotics (first they put novacaine in, then the antibiotics, because it burns so bad) and one week of antibiotics at home... also rest and relaxation and no blood thinners for three days. My bloodwork was soooo off the wall, I get to rest from bloodthinners for a few days anyway.

On a positive note, Rob and Ciara decided to make some comfort foods! They baked chocolate chip cookies. Unfortunately, part of this germie thing is not having much of an appetite, so I haven't even had one... but don't they look yummy? Wish I was feeling better!



Anyhoo, hope to be feeling better soon. We had no snow this morning, then it came down so hard this afternoon, . . . when I left to dr., roads were clear, when I retuned, we had over two inches. I think we'll have between 5 to 8 inches by morning! (or at least that's what weatherbug is saying, guess we'll see in the a.m.) I think I will stay in tomorrow and just heal, it's too cold to risk getting sicker for sure! Hope my job is as patient as they claim to be!


Have to go back for recheck on Thursday to Dr., ... hopefully things will start clearing up before then. Also got a call from the doctors in Atlanta, they need my white blood count to go down, and when it does (since I'm running this yuckie germie thing, my body is fighting infection big time), . . . once it goes down, then we'll schedule testing in Atlanta with the leg thing. They said it would be two days of testing, so Atlanta zoo, here we come again! Hopefully it will be this month, since we have our circuit assembly next month and that always throws the budget off. That's one thing I miss about Florida for sure, not having to get a hotel room for every assembly. Unfortunately, where we are now, we have to get rooms for all three assemblies every year; however, it could be worse, ... at least we don't have to wade waist deep in crocodile infested waters with our luggage over our heads to make it to our spiritual gatherings! In every negative, we can always find a positive!


Ok, I'm definitely not making sense,.... I think the pain shot I got today is sending me for a loop. Anyhoo, enjoy the pictures below that Ciara took of our spring today. Talk you all of you soon!

  1. My poor boo! I wish I could be there to at least whiskey it up with you to burn out the infection. The cookies look great but I do believe there is a butter issue or possibly a baking temperature issue. I am sure they were nummy! I miss you more than apple tinis and potatoe skins! Hugs and get better!
