Too sick to knit?

It started Saturday night, just a nagging cough. By Sunday night I had trouble breathing, a hacking cough and a fever. Tom insisted I get on line and make a medical appointment. To get him off my back, I went to Tricare on line to check out appointments for Monday. In the past, there haven't been any appointments on line and you have to wait until 0730 on Monday to call and hope you get an appointment. Since I go to a military clinic, I didn't really have any faith in getting a same day appointment. It seems that the "Spirits" were with me and I was able to sign up for an appointment for 0830 on Monday.

Good thing, I have Pneumonia. Doc gave me a choice, 5 day's bed rest, or go to the hospital. Guess my choice? Yep, I took the 4 Prescriptions and the medical bed rest document. The Doc won't release me to return to work until 9 June.

The worst thing is I'm too sick to knit (can't concentrate).
Well it’s back to bed for me.

Knitting update

The kids (and grandkids) have returned to Florida so I've gotten my knitting out. I've been hooked on cables lately. So far I've knitted 2 sweaters (size 6 months and 3 years) and I've just started the third sweater in size 5.

The pattern is called Aran Pullover from "A time for Baby". The cable chart is an easy one to remember and it's a fun knit. Once I finish the third sweater, it will probally be the last one for awhile.

I've got to start working on Christmas gifts. Yep, that's right we only have around 6 months to Santa time. This year, I'm only making small gifts, mittens, bags, hats etc.

And I couldn't leave you without a few more photos of the grandkids.
