Sep. 8th, 2022 12:18 amMy friends here have all been so busy. I've been a lump of lazy. Well, not really "lazy" so much as getting very little done since to move or think is a struggle. I've been down with a UTI. It seems to be the same one that I caught mid-July, took antibiotics for and then left for Pennsic. The second week of Pennsic featured the Return Of The UTI, so more antibiotics. Came home with a body swollen like crazy (a lot of us were struggling with water retention thanks to the weather) and feeling like crud. It took pushing to get anything done each day.
Four days ago while on the way to friends' house to help paint archery targets I had to ask for a detour to a Doc in the Box because my gut hurt very badly. Sure enough - UTI. More antibiotics. I'm on the third brand of drugs since this all started in July and I surely do hope that this stuff will kick the infection. A test done yesterday (third day into the antibiotic) had very bad stats and showed that what I am dealing with is a kidney infection. I guess that explains why it's been so hard to kick.
Mostly what I've been doing is laying in our bed or sitting in the living room half-dozing. I am so tired. I've been managing to do house chores at a minimal level, if one considers a load of laundry a day and a pot roast cooked "minimal".
Bossman is leaving for an event on Friday and I think he's relieved to escape me. I'm not much fun right now. The lack of anything worth watching on TV makes it even worse since we're still in the summer break between seasons. Usually we relax together by watching TV but reruns aren't cutting it.
So other than being complainy, I don't have anything to write about. I'm sure glad you do! Oh! my swimsuits came in the mail and they fit, and I now have adhesive stuff to help keep my monitor attached to me while I'm in a pool - and a bottle of adhesive remover that should make the every-ten-days removal easy. I hope. So whenever it is safe for me to jump into a public pool I'll be posting about how fun it is.
