Still have a long way to go in the breathing department.

Got a new hard drive today. It's working fast!

@dlowan,
I described the computer's symptoms to a woman on the phone, and she told me I needed a new hard drive. I gasped. She quoted me a price. I sounded a bit relieved. She said, "Not an arm and a leg." I said, "Just a finger."

Breathing is about the same. The Gregorian chanters have made a triumphant return. Yes, the damned machine is back.

@Rockhead,
Thanks from the bottom of my still beating heart, RH. Never heard that before. Wonderful, and beautiful.

@Roberta,
glad you like it.

the original version is rather much more metallic than that...

I'll think of you evermore when I hear it.

how's the solomon's seal doing in it's new city dwelling?

@Rockhead,
The little one croaked. The big one is fine. It will be potted some time soon. Got a pot big enough. Don't got enough breath to carry the pot. It's always something.

I'll keep you posted.

Report for those who are wondering. The anti-itch med works like a charm. It also helps me sleep. A twofer, so to speak.

@JPB,
It might be a little better. Hard to be sure. Thanks for asking.

Not much better. I'll give it the weekend.

I had to get a prescription filled, and I needed supplies. Not gonna ask Sheila to travel several miles so that I can go across the street. I took it slow (very), and I told the doorman to be on the lookout for me.

Back alive. (Nothing like stating the obvious.)

Very far behind in my work. This makes me noivous.

All the asthma meds make my hands shake and make me kinda jumpy. Hard to work. Hard to write. Hard to type. I'm doing my best.

I am now taking thirteen pills a day (she said proudly) and four different inhaled meds.

I'm a champion pill swallower. I usually do two at a time. One antibiotic I'm now taking is so big that even I can't get it down. What were the manufacturers thinking?

I'm rambling. Sorry.

I think I may try to got to sleep while it's still dark out. Stranger things have been known to happen.

PS: The new hard drive woiks great. Fast--and no steenkin' error messages. Smile

Since this started happening, I've been thinking about posting something here. I guess now is as good a time as any. If I don't post for more than a day or two, somebody should check whether I'm alive or not. Thomas has my phone number and is nearby. A few other people have my number.


I just left a voice message for Thomas. Hopefully we'll hear from Roberta or Thomas today.

Very much hoping for some good news and a kvetch about how we worry too much soon.

But this is a bit worrying.

Alive!!! My computer was down again. And I wasn't much better.

I seem to be a bit better today. The first sign of improvement.

Not where I should be but better.

I was worried that you guys would be worrying. I was right. Don't mean to cause you alarm, but I'm glad you noticed I was missing.

If I go missing again, it will likely be the computer, not me.

I'm gonna look around and then get to work. I'm so far behind that I think it's hopeless. But I'll keep plugging.

Smile
