Quick Update

I am still here in blog land.. Honking like a goose. I hate being sick!!!  I can't get that shot in the butt that makes you feel good by the next day. I am allergic to the steroid or the other stuff. I'll just say I had a bad experience of not being able to breathe after that shot about 2 years ago. The cold meds I am taking is OTC stuff for people with high blood pressure.. Doctor said that would be ok. I have taken it before.. But I don't remember it making me this loopy before... I told daughter on the phone a few minutes ago that my  mom said that I needed to run the Vapouriser tonight... I said something else instead of Vapouriser.. Word came out wrong.. Daughter got a laugh out of that... Oh Well, I need to go lay down, but hubby is in the bed snoring the curtains off the windows.. I may just sleep sitting up in the chair. I will, of course, have to stick tissue in each nostril hole to hold back the flow...
I need to get my cross stitch stuff out and look what needs to get finished in 2012. I can already tell you, I have 4 samplers that I am going to try and finish this year!! Since it is only 9:07 here.. I may go through my stash... I need to find that basket to put them in, so that I can pull them out to stitch on when the mood hits me..  I may just look for the basket... I am drained enough from just typing...
Till Later..... 

Where Has April Been ?

I am still here in blogland ! I have been taken care of sick folks. Raeanne came down with virus Monday morning, then DH came in from work about noon with virus. Raeanne's sugar has been in the 300's and then will drop to 50. So I spent last night at her house helping with the babies. We are praying that they don't get it. I am trying to take care of all the sick ones without new folks coming to help and end up with it. I think I will need a rest when everyone is well. So just a note saying where I am for now.

A Boy And A Leg Lamp

This is a picture of my grandson Josh. He had just discovered the Leg Lamp that mom had gave to me a couple of Christmas' ago. I just had to get the camera and take his picture. What is it with boys and leg lamps??? lol We the love the movie " A Christmas Story ". I also love Christmas Vacation. I have been sitting around today watching the Hallmark Channel's Christmas shows. I did start to tear up with one of the shows.. I said OK.... Go to another channel. Nothing like Judge Judy when she is screaming at someone to make you dry up those tears, and don't forget Jerry Springer... lol..

I did make it to the doctor today. NO Pleurisy.... He thinks I cracked a rib coughing. I got 2 more powerful antibiotics and some pain patches to apply to the rib area. Nothing they can do for that. Raeanne and kids were here tonight. I enjoyed it greatly. I did to much and I was to stay still and rest per Doc. I will have to try and stay still tomorrow for sure.. Hard to do that without falling asleep in the recliner. My mother in law came over and checked on me. Great just sitting and talking to her.

I have done some stitching today... well, almost about 30 minutes worth. I have about ran the batteries down in the remote to the TV.. Well... I think I will check in on TV Guide web site and see what will be on tomorrow. See Ya'll !!!

Tripping & No More Cough Syrup !

I think I went on a trip Saturday night and I didn't even leave the comfort of my bed... I think it was a trip... Sure scared me. I am NO longer taking the cough syrup !!!! My skin was crawling, heart racing, and TV sounded very LOUD.. I kept lowering the volume.. Head was a buzzing... Label said take only 1 TEAspoon.. I think I took 2 TABLEspoons... and with it being a prescription with codeine, did NOT help...It did not knock me out,, Opposite effect. I was Wired for 220...I finally feel asleep at 7:00 am. I thought when you are sick, you need more rest???? Guess not me. Mom came over after church Sunday. I had by then, made it to the couch.... This Cold, Flu, Pneumonia thing is Bad.. I am starting week 3 today.. Mom has been saying" Call The Doctor" !!! I feel like I am in an Andy Griffin Show episode where He keeps telling Aunt Bea " Call The Man !!! " To fix their freezer...LOL.

Hubby decided we could go and do some Christmas shopping Tonight... It was great not many people out shopping. I got about all, but 4 people left on my list..

I am working on some stitching, but not for Christmas presents.. I have pulled the Heirloom Afghan out to work on. I am feeling better and need to get back stitching on it. I don't think it will be finished before Christmas... Maybe After New Year...
Well it is 12:23 am on Tuesday morning.. Coughing but not Tripping ....

Day ???? OF Sickness !!!

I have lost track of how many days I have been sick... I blame it on cough syrup with Codeine. I just wake up every 12 hours and take more.... Well.. I may have to make another trip to Dr's office Monday. This will be 3rd time around. Maybe I am just wanting to be well again... LOL.. It may have to just run it's course. Z pac did no good. I did stay awake long enough today to watch SEC Game... ROLL TIDE ROLL !
No unpacking.... No Stitching.... No Cooking... No Christmas Decorating....
Doctor said Pneumonia... I say Pneumonia, Swine Flu, Cold, Regular Flu, and anything thing else Sick... How long does Pneumonia last... 2 weeks???? Well cough syrup is kicking in... I start to see double and hear stuff........ hummmmmm
