Now for a restful weekend

I'm back from the doctor and from Costco pharmacy. I have bronchitis and started on the Z-Pack just now, so I will start to feel better soon. The doctor said that what the xray showed wasn't consistent with Valley Fever - it "didn't have the look" of a fungal infection. That's all I wanted to know, and now I can forget about it. I certainly would never go back to Quest Labs for a blood test again - I still haven't heard the results.

I was worried about the bridge traffic on Sunrise Blvd just before turning to where I live, but although it was starting to get heavy I beat the worst of it. Dog has been walked and I'm debating on whether to nap before I eat or vice versa.

All the gas stations I passed today show diesel to be about $4.50 a gallon. You can imagine what that is doing to the cost of products that must be shipped to the stores. It's all the more reason to buy local, and maybe the cost of an online purchase isn't that much cheaper when you figure in the shipping & handling.

I hope everyone has a nice weekend.

  4. Thank goodness. Hard to imagine saying that for bronchitis but the z pack works so well. Glad you're going to feeling better really soon.

    In the heat we're having right now - I vote for nap.
