Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

That all sounded really really rough. Thank God for your family tho.

This week, you'll recover, rest and get back into a rhythem.

It was a challenge, but the good times with grandson and family made it all worthwhile.

 

[Mini Horses]

You made it through!!

With all the drawbacks, it still was a good trip and I know your grandson was happy y'all were there. And at least now you know to fortify with Dramamine before the tires roll.

I started getting a scratchy throat Saturday on the way home from the trip. It wasn't horrible, but every day it's a little more insistent. Woke up today with chest/sinus congestion and a cough. Oh great! Should have started the elderberry syrup Saturday, but better late than never. I got that going this morning along with hot green tea, lots of vitamin C. Tonight I'll use Vicks w/heating pad on my chest. Would rather not see a doc (who has time?) if I can help it, but I won't be dumb about it. If it gets worse, I'll get myself checked out at some point in between DH's appts.

Took DH to an emergency dental visit yesterday - he broke a tooth. Have a cardiologist appt today and an appt with his sleep doc Friday. Tuesday it's back to the dentist for the extraction of the broken tooth and two root canals/caps. Had to reschedule an appt with his endocrinologist for that. Looks like I won't be getting a break, so I better buck up and overcome this mess. The natural humidity we have helps. I feel better outside than inside. Guess that's my cue to get out there and start chores before taking DH to his appt.

oh dear! hope you can avoid the worst of it.

Hubs new neurologist called for yet another sleep study. The place we were referred to doesn't take our version of the United Health Care Medicare Advantage program. Guess they will need to find another one for us!!
