Well, I've been off the airwaves for a while. I got a fever a week ago and stayed in bed for two days. Thought I was fine and went back to work. On Wednesday I was coughing so badly I cancelled my after-school choir and went to the doctor, who said I had bronchitis. He gave me four types of medicine and I reacted badly to one (the others I knew were ok for me-- I don't generally do well with some medicine.) I spent Thursday and Friday in bed, had a double run-through of the musical on Saturday and played the organ at church today. Then I spent the rest of Sunday in bed!
How are you holding up with seasonal illnesses going around?

@petatonicsca Welcome! Here too and a warm soup and coffee can be helpful for me now. I hope you have some medications with your bronchitis and have a good rest later

At school today, just taught a class. I'm tired but only coughed a few times (one time the kids were like "Are you all right???") but yeah, improving.

My grandchildren thoughtfully shared a fall cold with me. It's been a week and a half....I'm much better, but still not fully recovered.

Goodness, I hope that you are feeling better. I have not yet come down with a sniffle yet, but it is doing its rounds.

Luckily we don't mix with too many crowds so thankfully haven't picked up any bugs. Hopefully it will stay that way.

That bronchitis can be very bad. My friend had it and she suffered for over 3 weeks with a cough. So far I have had sinus infection issues but not serious enough to see a doctor. I get them around this time every year.
