Snowed In And Under The Weather


7:54

7:55
It's 7:42 and Evie and I are both up, listening to Morning Joe, feeling bad.  We have not even been outside to try to clear our walk or drive.  We got maybe 8 inches overnight, with more to come the next few days.  It's a winter wonderland, and we cannot enjoy it.

Like A Painting
Yesterday was my time to head to the doctor because of my cough, chills, just feeling terrible.  So neither one of us did much all day except wait till 1:00 for my appointment.  Unlike Evie, the doc is pretty sure I don't have pneumonia but my cough is really annoying and constant.  He prescribed an inhaler, some pills to stop the coughing and an antacid in case it's also acid reflux.  When I went to get the inhaler it was going to cost me over three hundred dollars for a reason I still do not fully understand.  I passed on it, went home, wrote an email to the PA and he said stop back and he would give me some samples.  So I drove back to Mayville in a heavy snowfall, sat in the office for 20 minutes until I got the samples and went home,  ready to just lie on the couch.

It''s Snowing Outside

Cosy
Evie seems to be getting better but still has a cough.  Our dinner was soup and leftover chicken although neither of us was very hungry.  We watched Designated Survivor and Rectify, a Vice news before going to bed early.  I was worried about sleeping because of my constant hacking but I did pretty well although Evie had a restless night.

This is the first time I have been ill in a long time and I forgot what it was like.  Hopefully, both of us will be back on our feet in a couple of days so we can enjoy the snow, shovel us out of our abode.
