Better

Update on our colds. I still have bronchitis. I'm still taking antibiotics and cough syrup with codiene. I can still tell a difference each day with it progressively improving. PTL!! Scott's isn't progressing like I'd thought it would.

I worried about Scott's medicines not working. Yesterday he contacted his doctor and was called in some of my cough syrup which enabled him to get a whole lot more sleep last night. Actually, though...I'm thinking it's the z-pack not working on him like I expected it to....thought I'd see a big difference, but it seems like it was just weaker enough from mine that he didn't improve as quickly.

Anyway....we're better....we're still unpleasant to be around when the 'attacks' hit...bleaaa, but the tissue supply for the world may be safe after all....

ugh!!...wait....not ugh after all!!

I did manage to get in to see the doctor today...well, rather her hubby, who is also in the same group. Anyway...turns out to be bronchitis...heading toward pneumonia...glad I went!! I kept hassling Scott to go, too, but finally gave up. He called an hour later with the news that the doctor thought he wasn't nearly as bad me, but still warranted a Z-pack and script for another med, too. Hah!...sometimes nagging works best when you just threaten to not share your drugs!! LOL

Currently we're both experiencing that period of time where the meds have just begun to work enough to make things seem worse...we're both coughing more, but I do think my head seems clearer. What a relief!! LOL

Scott's stuck with supper duties tonight...he's such a good husband!! He's baking talipia and steaming broccoli and fixed a sweet potato for us to share....and, there's hot yeast rolls!! YUM!

Life is definitely looking UP!!

Pouting on Special Day

I know it's not mature to pout, but I really never looked forward to spending my 40Th wedding anniversary with both of us having bad colds. The hacking, sniffing, blowing type....and to add insult to this....his idea of how to spend tonight is to watch a ball game on TV.....not even a lousy movie watched together...grump!grump!grump!

It's Time For Another Change

Wonder what will be the direction the Nation takes now? And, how soon? Elections always bring about changes. No matter which way you voted, my belief is that the good Lord allows people to be voted into position for a reason. I'm just going to have to hope that we're not going to be a cautionary tale in the history books. As I frequently think after an election. LOL

So...now what? How many of your beliefs will be upheld by those in power soon, and how many will be jettisoned as backward ideas, narrow mindedness, or politically incorrect? Guess it's still to be seen.....life is always interesting....sometimes scary, sometimes exciting, but almost always interesting.
