I am sick, but I know I'm just sickish, not SICK SICK. But absolutely none of my tried and true, organic, all natural remedies worked and now I have bronchitis. Plus when I finally went to the doctor (earlier today) the doctor said "Wow, your sinuses are really jacked up - do you feel any pain in your face or do you have drainage, or "yada yada yada, I don't remember all she said but I know I had the first two so I just kept nodding dejectedly (any talking at all will start me coughing again - and I've already changed my panties twice now because I have been coughing so much and so hard that I have leaked on my panties which is OUT OF CHARACTER FOR ME so by golly, I've got to be sick). Anyway, so all my tests for COVID and flu and all that came back negative, because all I have is bronchitis and sinusitis which is what I figured - not sexy. But you know what - the whiskey and honey and lemon juice mixture didn't work, the hot teas didn't work, rubbing peppermint oil on my chest didn't work, though I did get some in my eye which was interesting, bathing in hot lavender mist didn't work, nothing has worked so load me up, baby, and boy did they ever.
Now here's my FWP - does anyone who ever went to the doctor because they were sick ever feel like being there? No of course not. So do we look like we then want to go to the PHARMACY and pick up our bags and bags of prescriptions? HELL TO THE NO. Because of course we will wait, while we're coughing up a lung and everyone is staring at us like we have COVID or something. Goodness.
But long story short, I am home with my meds and my nebulizer and my hot tea and my codeine laced cough syrup and in my pajamas, sans bra, and if I didn't have this horrible, hacking cough, I'd be close to being happy. As it is, I'm just glad to be home.
That does suck. Glad you’re home at last, and hope you feel better quick!
The first of two brands of grocery store I went to didn't have a couple things I wanted. But they have another location near the bigger grocery store I go to so I said to myself, I'll just check there. But of course, when I went to the bigger store I bought perishables that I didn't want to leave out in the car so I drove home with them and will have to go to the other store another day.
OK so I am running low on several things but I don't want to go to the store, which is literally two minutes from my house driving.
Good news is that the meds seem to be kicking in and I'm finally able to pace myself coughing. After changing my undies once today, I think I'm good! LOL
There were only TWO pea pods in the Yakisoba noodles and BOTH of them slid out of the microwaveable pouch and onto the floor This was my valiant attempt to create breakfast this morning. The last time I ordered these and bottled water, they brought the water but no noodles.
I swear I saw them in the trunk of the drivers' car as she sped away giggling to herself that I paid eighteen dollars for noodles so they must be great and HER dinner problems were solved. So yeah, First World Psychological Problem ~ Suspicion of Noodle Thieves
K this isn’t really a “problem”, first world or otherwise.
But it annoys me when, in the Relationships forum, 99% of the first posts that come across are long winded, and about weird issues. Lots of “story” but not much actual substance. Seems more prevalent in that forum than others, but of course there are “one hit wonders” all over these boards.
