Good morning Paulie and LB...

My poor friend in STILL waiting for the biopsy report.  Awful

Actually saw some sun this morning.

Bad weather stayed away yesterday until I got home from getting my hair done.  Lucked out on that one 

Have a good day guys.

Hi,

LB and jicaji, Your ghost hours suck. It's not pleasant waking at early hours then not being able to get back to sleep.

jicaji, Sending prayers to your friend that she receives good news.
Cool you saw a Coopers Hawk in your yard but sad for the bird. We know that's nature but we don't like seeing that.
Congrats to your granddaughter making Dean's list. You have a right to be a proud Nana for sure.
Very nice your hair salon moved much closer to your home.

Well I've been MIA the past days because a huge surprise this past Tuesday was my husband tested positive for covid and viral pneumonia. We were shocked having made it all of this time without it. He already has congestive heart failure and diabetes so big time worry set in. I took him to Dr when his low grade fever persisted and he felt crappy and didn't look good. That's where he was given test swab. We were then sent to ER. After about 2 hours of waiting (in the regular ER waiting room that surprised us they had him waiting around lots of other people) and his cough sounded worse to me (he was told he had fluid in his lungs) I returned to Triage station and raised a storm. I spoke quietly to not alarm others waiting but I definitely got my point across saying he best be looked at asap. It worked! He was immediately taken into an ER exam room. Didn't have to wait long for Dr either!! Long story short .. he was told EGK and bloodwork and other vitals were good and he has a mild case. Dr said initial vax and boosters helped it being mild. Dr said they don't admit mild cases. We returned home Tuesday night. He was given a finger oximeter I use to check his oxygen and pulse rate level. I take his temp regularly too.

I tested myself Tuesday night after we returned home. Negative. Have to wait 48 hours to test again I think. I'd already had post nasal drip that's normal for me. Yesterday got a scratchy throat .. today a bit sore. I'm taking Coricidin and Mucinex. Well that's the MIA story.

So sorry Paulie, I hope your hsband gets better soon!!!

[jicaji]

Paulie.

I was just going to contact you to see if everything was OK.  I am so sorry your husband got Covid.  Praying he gets better quickly.  Did they prescribed Paxlovid?  Better that he was able to come home rather than stay in the hospital.   Hope you don't get it.

AND, as I've worked in two hospitals for years, I know the squeaky wheel definitely gets the grease   If you don't speak up you could get ignored for quite some time in the ER.

I wake up many days with a sore, dry throat due to a nasal drip too.

Thanks for the prayers for my friend.  Still no news.

Hi LB.

Hi  I hope everything is going ok with your husband Paulie

[paulie]

Hi LB, Thank you about my husband. He's coming along. Slow process for him. I'm keeping a close eye on him.

Hi jicaji, No Paxlovid wasn't given to him because Dr said it would interact with some of his heart medications so that was out.

Well I tested myself last night. Positive with major sinus congestion, sore throat and and feel tired and low on energy.
My oldest daughter and oldest son were here the day my husband first wasn't feeling good but we had no idea he was contagious with anything. They both have also tested positive.

We're each riding it out and hoping for the best and looking forward to feeling better.

I did my first online food shopping today and had it delivered. It was easier than I thought and went smoothly. Thing is after delivery and I opened up the front door I felt like I didn't have the energy to bring it in and put away. Blah. I did of course and was glad when that was done. Very grateful though that online shopping and delivery is available. BIG help.

I'm still frustrated after allll this time and having been vaxed and boosted more than once we still got this. I was still being careful but my husband not so much.  Although this new variant is supposed to be easier to be transmitted. Apparently so.
I suggest to everyone to still be vigilant .. wear a mask if you want to .. carry hand sanitizer and wash hands frequently. We can try. 

LB, Be careful in the office next week when everyone is there.

Hi LB, Thank you and yep now it's my chance to rest. This fatigue is annoying. I'm not used to low energy. lol I don't have it all of the time but when it hits I definitely feel it. Pain in the butt.

Cool that you like curb side pick up and delivery so much. I understand that now. Definitely handy.

Good news that the problem at work was fixed and very good only half crew will be there.

Hi Tig, Wow you've used grocery pick up a long time! I'm sure your knees thank you.

After using delivery yesterday I had the idea I could have all the heavy packs of water delivered here saving my knees from lifting and carrying them. Definitely handy.

Why do you have 'some bounce' instead of 'bounce'. Hope all's well.

[camperstig]

... just thinking of you   

[paulie]
