It's not fun to go to the doctor on vacation, but the sooner you go, the sooner they might be able to get you started on meds that will make you feel better! Think of it as every hour you wait is another hour of feeling lousy.

You're right. I made an appointment at a Minute Clinic nearby. I like I could pick a time, instead of sitting in an Urgent Care waiting room. Even if they don't give me antibiotics, I can get more prescription strength cough suppressant.

Good job!

Our good friend just got diagnosed with pneumonia yesterday! These viruses are no joke! Please do get checked out!

140.2.
Baby, it's cold outside.... Spending this morning watching the snow blowing horizontal to the ground Brrrrrrrrrr, but grateful to be warm and on the inside. Going nowhere fast today and most likely not tomorrow. Wind chills up to -20/30 degrees. We were forecast to 8-12 inches which is a lot for here,, but temperatures so low that snowflakes very small and likely to get more like 6". Bundle up, Paula!

17 bean and ham bone soup on the stove with southern white cornbread for supper...so very good.

Liz, I had to smile when you mentioned your "moderate" social out and about lifestyle. Planning "only" one activity per day is uber busy in my mind and the energy and enjoyment you have for it blows me away...I bow in your general direction .

Stay warm and well, enjoying yourselves as it pleases each to do.

Some of the people here would blow you away! Booked all day every day. Golf in the early part of the day then cards for the afternoon. Next day tennis followed by bocce then dinner out. And so on...

May the force be with them...

Can I come over for dinner? Sounds amazing!

Any time! We just finished eating. Substituted French garlic bread for the cornbread. Hit just the right spot.

Greetings all

Not raining. That's all I can say. I did well at Scrable and defeated the Shark. Two bingo words of 70+ points each! Lost game 3 by a small amount. After that I had a routine "fog the mirror" doctor appointment so I decided to ask about weight loss meds. He says he will write one for me or to go ahead and check on the on line stuff - whatever is less costly. So he is ok with the idea which was sort of my hold up, I am supposed to research what my insurance will pay for. So I will. Probably nothing. So maybe I will get on the train after I get this cataract stuff done.

after that I ran errands to the accountant for studio taxes. I was hungry but decided to go do the gym because if I come home and eat something I will never leave. Got it done and all good.

DD glad you are going to the clinic. Pneumonia must be addressed and not just with Mai Tais (though that sounds like a good idea) Hope they give you antibiotics cuz I am sure you need them. So sorry you are sick on trip.

Bonnie soup sounds great! What a fine thing on a snowy day. Comfort food of the highest order. And yeah stay home if you can. Warm is good.

Liz I am with you - a no event day is grand. I don't know how some people schedule stuff all day long nor do I understand why. My personal theory is that such people are boring and thats why they need constant entertainment; but that probably reflects my introvert homebody tendencies. Glad you talked to your DH about being an undesired golf commentator.

Yum yum sandwiches tonight. DH is zoned out on sci fi. No thanks.

CC yoo hoo! Everything ok?
