Now back to breathing

Thank goodness I'm back to normal (or as normal as I can be). Because I was too sick to knit, I'll give you more photos of the grandkids. Trina and Missy have been good at sending me photos. So enjoy.
Aurora, Jack (Danielle is behind him). Meghan and David. At the bottom there's a photo of a Fishing trip in Jacksonville. Tommy's too tired to yell at Missy for taking his photo. Missy didn't catch the fish (she claims her's got away and was bigger).

Ok, I thought I was better, but I was WRONG. Yep, I ended up back at the Doctors today. Pneumonia is still hanging on. More meds, more xrays!!! Doc's not sure why I can't shake this. I've had Pneumonia 4 times in the past year. It seems that I no sooner get finished than I get it again.


So on to more interesting stuff. Missy sent Tom a Father's Day package. He was like a little kid opening the box. Lots of neat stuff for him. I'll try to get enought energy to take some photos later.

Still breathing?

Well, the worst seems to be over. I'm not coughing (much) and the fever is gone. I even went back to work today. Not sure that was a good idea, by 3pm I was a whipped puppy. I was so tired that I drove home with the top up on the MX5. Gotta be the first time (unless you count when it rained).

I'm back to knitting and should have some photos soon.

keep on knitting.

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.
