I've been in my house most all day... but what have I done? Not much.
My head just feels like it is stuffed with cotton... I don't have fever or anything, but I am soooo congested and exhausted, I guess b/c it is so hard to breathe when you're all stuffy like this! Hard to THINK, too. It's like I am wandering around in a fog.
I went to the post office, the bank, and the drug store today, and after that, just took it easy. Thank goodness, I believe ddil realized dh and I were both about shot last night, and they took dgd shopping with them. They were home in time to pick up dgs at school, but he was half expecting me anyway, and after last night, dh and I were afraid we might have made him think we were a little TOO ready for him to leave -- we were afraid we had hurt his feelings -- so I volunteered to pick him up at school and let him stay here a few hours. They picked him up in time for church, and after that, I settled in to the recliner for the newspaper and a nap.
OH -- we did NOT hurt his feelings, he was very happy with everything, and he was proud to call after church and tell us he is playing Joseph in the church Christmas play. (Joseph doesn't have a lot of lines, the play is mostly acted out while a narrator reads the story, but he is glad to have graduated from animal to shepherd to Joseph, LOL.)
Tomorrow we have the funeral of our friend, and then dh's appt with the knee doctor. I hope he gets good results, but whatever the outcome, I am SOOOOO SOOOO very thankful to LadyM and the others of you who mentioned the "rooster comb" shot. I'm not sure that is exactly what dh will get, but b/c y'all shared this information, dh consented to let me call the knee doctor and ask, and as I think I told y'all yesterday, they said they do have "non-steroid" options... so... we are praying for good results. DH can walk around the house, but certain movements cause a LOT of pain, something that just developed this week, and he said today, if the ballgame with our big rival (the one he has a 61 year streak of attendance) were today, he could not go, so he is willing to see the doctor in hopes that he CAN go when it is time (Nov 24).
I am sorry I am not posting to everyone and replying and everything. Thinking of you all.
Tomorrow is another day.
