Good Morning Susan,
I hope you are feeling better today. What a way to end Mother's Day!! At least you got to go out with the family and enjoy each other. :)
Take Care!!!:)
I wish I could make you chicken soup!!!!!! Well, think of this post as your chicken soup tonic and picture sipping on the nice hot broth and slurping the noodles and savoring the chicken. Can you feel your nose starting to run? Are you getting all warm and cozy?
Now lets drink some tea!!!!!! OOOOOOHHHHH SOOOO GOOD!!!!
Now its time for your nap!!!!!!!
Feel better when you wake up.:D
How's that for cyber nursing?:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
Love,
Addy
Could someone please send a hug? A big one? Man-this is lousy.

Well-you hit the mark....except for the tea. I don't drink tea.....tastes awful. And I did eat some chicken noodle soup. It's the only thing I've had since lunch on Sunday.Quote:

Anyone looking for a husband? Qualifications: = short tempered with puppies. Mad that his wife is sick. Angry to take the doggie out or walk it.
I think it's time to review my contract.....before I decide to renew it this year. (married almost 37 years......so he's probably no longer trainable.)
The temp is coming down. I spent the entire day in bed...sleeping or groaning.
You're my favorite cyber nurse, Addy.:):)
Love,
Susan
((HUG))
I think we need to download emoji icons like on the phones--they are so cute and fit right in with how we talk.....
It sounds like Addy helped you get through the worst part of the flu.
Husbands---:rolleyes: Let me think-definitely not trainable after the 30+ mark. Why is it they think you can nurse them but when roles are reverse you shouldn't even think of being sick--helloooo....:eek: I think we just do everything because it gets done without the complaints. We spoiled them rotten:D:D That is where we went wrong. It has been almost 31 years for us.
I hope today is a much better day for you!!!:):)
Dang it!!! What key did I mistakenly hit that removed all my pearls of wisdom?????
Any way-I thought I was doing much better. I ate 1/2 sandwich for lunch on Sunday. I skipped dinner all together....just felt too yucky. Monday I had a bowl of Chicken Noodle soup;-one of Lipton's....they are far superior to the others out there, at least according to my tastTester I ate nothing before 6pm.
Bob asked what I wanted and I said cream chipped beef. It's one of my comfort foods for me. We each had 1 piece of bread lightly toasted and a bowl of applesauce. Oh-and our 12oz of buttermilk.
To speed this tale of woe, let's just say I sat and waited for my sotmach to decide what it was going to do. It seemed okay, then it did not. Maybe this was heartburn....who knows....not me, that's for sure.
I watched the Nats win their baseball game and had planned to shower/shampoo after that. I mean come on now-It's been since Sunday when that last happened.:eek::eek:
Well the teeth got brushed (thankfully!!) but the rest got postponed. Temp started back on the rise again (102) and the shivvers started again. I just hopped in bed, tried to warm up and listened to the action on the tv,
Anyway-Bailey has stayed pretty much by my side. Bob took her for a few hours this morning so she would not keep running into our bedroom and disturbing me. And of course he has had to do the walking and poo patrol/pickup.
Then I got one (only one) of those leg twitches. Then I had warmed up and now I found I was too HOT. So I got up, changed pjs to lighter ones and came up to the ofice to do a thing or two. I've now taken Pepto Bismol....it seems to be settlig the tummy. My experience with Pepto is that if you use it , it will do 1 of two things.You have to be prepared to do with possibility #1-that is where you take your medicine and within 40 seconds it comes back and says "Hello" to you. Every time that has happened to me, I felt soooooo much better. It was such a relief not to be on guard for a medical mishap.....and the stomach settled down right away.
The second thing it may do is just settle your stomach down. It looks like I won the basket and that may be the end if it,
Meanwhile I feel like I've been in La-La land and have blown by 3 ir 4 days. 3-4 very pretty days!
I just would really like to get one good night's sleep
Hey-How was everyone else's Mother day? .
Take care-I seem to be fading fast. I have to grab it when I can get it!!
love,
Susan
Hey Susan,
Glad to read you are feeling some better. :) The flu just sucks - no polite way to say it! If you aren't taking zinc, it is something to consider - as long as you don't have diabetes or Alzheimer's. Get plenty of rest and fluids! ;)
Sending healing thoughts your way!
Hugs...from a distance :D,
Leslie
How is my patient today? Any fever? How's the tummy?
Oh Susan,
I sure hope you are on the mend. Glad to hear Nursing Assistant Bailey is keeping you company. What a good little girl she is:)
Before you know it, Bob will be taking you out dancing to celebrate your recovery.:D:D:D
Feel better.
HUGS, HUGS AND MORE HUGS
Love,
Addy
Hi Leslie & Addy-
Thanks for stopping by.:D
Well last night didn't start out well when I fell out of bed and hit the crate on the way to the floor. I don't think I was even trying to get out of bed. I just must have been too close to the edge. I have a horrendous softball size bruise that's real ugly and painful.
There there were the two, three, four or five times I spilled over a cup....while reaching for the thermometer or something.
Then-today was just a blast. I started out @102. went to 103, went back to 101 and am now back up to 103.I''ll be seeing my doc in the am.
Then, just to be sure I had covered all bases, I tripped coming up the stairs.....and Bailey peed up here. SHE HAD JUST BEEN OUT!!!!
I'm getting the chills again. I go from chills to sweats and back and forth.:(:(
And the 3 days I've been sick, and had to stay in, the weather has been scrumptious.:mad::mad:
