Tommy's Birthday

 It is the middle of the night. I am having trouble breathing. My lungs make horrible noises as I breath in and out. The rest of me might be getting well. However, now Tommy is ill. 

I sang Happy Birthday to him after midnight. We are sort of postponing any birthday (71) for him since he will have to go in and collect cake and ice cream. I hope I can find his gifts wherever I put them. 

A therapist called Sunday night wanting to come at 9:30 in the morning. I explained that time would never suit me. And, that the nurse had not visited to enroll me because I was ill. So, he has to call office now. 

Tommy is going to call bath guy who insists on 15 more minutes. Tommy and I are both too ill right now to 'discuss' anything. 

I put the wool blanket back on the bed and have not gotten too hot again. I believe I was running a temp when I awoke soaked. I love the blanket!

Today, we had to cook! BSCB and potatoes were all we managed. I had that and something else. Tommy had the last of the green casserole and the last half of piece of pecan pie. 

If we can get it done, I want to make the bedroom next to living room into a 'gym.' We have several devices we both could use. It is a monumental job, but needed. It maybe be a silly idea and futile, but I intend to try. 

We are struggling but will make it. 

How are things with you?

  2. Happy Birthday Tommy, you irascible old rascal, you!!! We all love your cranky-ass ways. Well, except for Linda. ;^)
    Hope you don't get too sick.

    I'm glad the blanket is a help and a comfort.

    I think your idea of an exercise room is a grand one and hope you can pursue it.

    Stay warm and hydrated, and get well soon, both of you!

    1. Sue,
      I read that to Tommy and he laughed.
      The exercise room wouldn't be a whole room, just what I can clear out.
      We are trying our best.

  4. I hope yall do not have the virus we have. TheHub has been sick since Sunday a week ago, and still feels pretty bad and cannot quit coughing.

    1. I got something a day or so earlier than that, and the cough is still going strong, and now Tommy has it. I am still miserable.
