BS: New Year's Eve at SINSULL's cancelled

Some of you got invites. Some knew they were coming. Just back from the doctor's office with multiple prescriptions. I have bronchitis and am contagious. No way Tom or Kendall can be anywhere near me. No way I can do New Year's Eve and a house concert the next day.
So sorry.
Mary

Perfectly understandable, Sins. If you need anything Deb and I are just a phone call away. We missed you at Christmas. I hope you feel better soon!

Every year - you'd think I would know to go to the doctor sooner. But NOOOO. Every time I insist it's just a cold. Although this usually happens in January.
Thanks for all the sympathy.

Oh, Micca, I think we might be able to arrange something...

...however, it probably won't be from Tom or me because we'll be in bed waaaay before midnight here.

Mary, take care of yourself (dammit!). I guess your tasteful Christmas gift will have to wait. (Oh, good! More time to wrap it!)

Rest well. Hope the New Year is better for us all!

In my defence - I called Buffalo to see how they were doing. Two cases of bronchitis and one of pneumonia. We all caught the same crap over Thanksgiving.
So much for sharing.

I feel well enough today to shower and dress. WHOO WHOO! I don't know how people cope with serious illnesses. Bronchitis and I am flopping around like Sarah Bernhardt. Even the cats are sick of me.
But I am clean and dressed. It's a start.

So the people at work sent you home because you smelled funny?

Single people who are sick flop around a lot. And microwave available food. Then again, the worst I've had outside of a cold is a self-induced, medically prescribed intestinal "event".

No, Jeri. They were convinced I had either pneumonia or TB and didn't want either. Very little sympathy there. All done with good humor though.

So how did you enjoy your colonoscopy, Jeri? Clean as a whistle, are we? heh heh.
SINS feeling better.

They got one polyp and a bunch of healthy samples just for jollies. I discovered that mixing lemon Crystal Light with the "instant poop" solution turns things a day-glow yellow. Probably looked like someone had been blowing sunshine up my nethers. Miserable couple of days, but I feel OK now.

Charmion, actually; Edmund's been at the study computer again.

Glad to see you're up and about, Mary, but don't push yourself -- and definitely don't go out unless the house is on fire. Bronchitis has a nasty habit of rebounding on impatient patients, and pneumonia is not yet out of the question.

Ring in the New Year in a recumbent position, perhaps in front of the TV. I find that a nice glass of something mildly alcoholic helps the antibiotics go down, although doing it on one's own feels more than a bit Tiny Tim.

Hot Toddies-Scotch Whiskey (don't waste the malt-blended is fine!) lemon juice hotwater and brown sugar or honey to taste -wonderful way to enter a New Year!!! Good thought and peace for 2011! Love from those Hissyfit gals xxx (Hazel would post but she has flu!!!)

Poor Hazel. At least I am not confined to the bathroom.
Actually Linda that's how I spent Christmas. Honey, lemon, ginger, hot water and a dash (splash) of JD. Helped me sleep too.
To add insult to injury the heat went out. The repairman is downstairs installing a new circulating pump. Meantime no heat. ARGHHHH!
How did the pioneers do it? They didn't even have microwaves.

We took a pan of Jewish penicillin to Mary's this afternoon and dropped off a couple of Christmas presents at the same time.

She's up and looking relatively well but says that if she does anything she gets very tired. Easy answer - don't DO anything.

I got light-headed at the gym yesterday and cut my workout short. No eliptical. I figured it was because I hadn't been eating much since the Dr changed my stomach meds and they weren't working so well. Sometimes, it's hard to tell if feeling bad is because of the virus/bacteria/gunk or because you've been not eating/drinking/sleeping/moving because of the virus/bacteria/gunk. I don't suppose it matters.

Chicken soup, however, ALWAYS matters.
Take care of yourself, and try to not be contagious for the Cindy/Grey concert. If it's too much of a pain in the ass, I can piss off home afterwards.

Well, I used my brain and went to the doc ahead of the gunk/crap/yukky stuff and am just settling in with a nice antibiotic in a lovely shade of turqouise capsules, complimented by a side of sandy-coloured acidophilus and one salad coming up!
