Today is Saturday. I felt a little better yesterday morning so I thought I would go out and do some shopping. I needed to pick up a couple of wedding gifts and go to Walmart. Well, it did me in so I haven't felt very good today. I think it is going to take longer than I thought to get better. Ugh!!

Went back to the Dr. yesterday and there has been little improvement in my lungs. Got another breathing treatment and a stronger, longer antibiotic and steroid plus some cough medicine. She wants to see me next Wed. if I'm not markedly better but I don't think I will wait that long. If I'm not better by Mon. I'll call in and try to see my regular Dr. The heat has been terrible. Up in the low hundreds. I felt bad that I had to skip working at the Temple today and tomorrow. It would have only been my second time going there. Michael didn't get up until 8:45 this morning. I was a little worried about him so I peeked in and he was moving. What a sigh of relief! My precious daughter, Stacey, has gestational diabetes. I'm so sad for her. This pregnancy has not been an easy one. Stephanie found a mouse in her kitchen today. Time for the mouse traps! Haven't heard from Brian for a week now. Don't know why. Maybe he is still mad that I posted on Facebook that he and his Dad had ADHD. Oh well, there's nothing I can do about it.

Had the best visit with Michael's sister Mary last Monday. She is the most wonderful woman and friend. I was sorry the visit was so short. A week ago this last Fri. I woke up with a sore throat. As each day came along I felt a little worse. By Tuesday I had a cough and my chest started to burn and feel heavy. By Thursday I was really coughing a lot. On this last Friday I was thinking that I would go to the Dr. on Monday if I wasn't feeling any better but as the day wore on I just felt worse so I decided to go to the Dr. I called and got an afternoon appt. They tested me for strep and checked my oxygen level. She couldn't hear any breath sounds in my right lung so she ordered an xray and a breathing treatment. It turns out I have pneumonia in both lungs. She gave me an rx for 2 inhalers (different), an antibiotic and some prednisone. Today is Sunday and I don't feel any better yet. I don't go back to see her until Wednesday. Michael keeps asking me if I need to go to the hospital. I'm just going to wait until my appt. Hopefully I will be feeling better by then.
