Another early night for me

I went to Urgent Care yesterday and was diagnosed with pneumonia again which meant medicine again. Ugh! I have taken my meds as prescribed, drank tons of fluids, resting and all that good stuff you are suppose to do when you are down sick. I did make one quick trip to town to do a few errands and when I got home I walked to the post office which is only a half a block away. The only thing I did around the house was the dishes. I have had a great day here chatting with everyone. That has been the highlight of my day. And now, even though it is early my eyes are getting very heavy and sleep is not far away. So if I disappear you will know why. I do have one more quick post I want to write before I call it a night. Good night or good morning wherever you may live. Have fun mylotting. See you tomorrow.

@TiarasOceanView I have COPD and had lung surgery back in 1994. I am still in remission but my regular doc felt it would't hurt to see a specialist.

Sounds like you did a lot being so sick! Hubby stayed in bed hours and hours at a time in between going to work, which I didn't think he should go to. All of the sudden yesterday he seems to be all better.

Yes, I was sick every time I turned around. You have a stubborn husband but I am glad that he got better.

@velvet53 I´m not well either. I have been with diarrhea for several days although I have been taking what I know for it and eating a special diet.

We had shots last fall to avoid pneumonia and I'm glad it is available. I'm too old to handles sickness well.. Glad you are over that now.

My husband and I have been vaccinated against pneumonia. Vince has had it several times so it seemed a good idea to have the shots.

I got my pneumonia shot too but I keep getting it. I think my COPD has a lot to do with it.

I will get out and get some sun in the morning if it is sunny and halfway warm. I need to get more vitamin c tomorrow when I go to town.
