I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am currently sitting outside the ER while DP is in getting assessed

Must have been the day for ER visits. I spent the night at the ER. 10:30pm - 8am. GI virus or food poisoning, unclear. running 102 - 102.7 fever. I took 2 bags of saline and got meds that finally stopped the waves of nausea.

They did not do a COVID test, but I had an appt with the city testing at 9:15, so I went from the hospital to that and should have results in 3-5 days.

Fever still not broke. On clear liquids. SO hungry, but everything sounds awful and I know would not cooperate with my innerds at the moment. So water, broth and tea.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Ginger ale helps: sugar for lost energy, soda to settle the stomach. I'm sorry you're still poorly after a night in ER.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh dear, msbelle. I do hope this clears quickly. Health~ma in abundance.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, msbelle, that sucks.

Yikes, feel better soon msbelle.

I've finished carving my jack-o'-lantern and am now soaking it in bleach solution overnight to keep it from rotting before Halloween. Tomorrow I'll finish painting the eyeball and teeth and put it out in the hallway to creep out my neighbors.

{{{msbelle}}} Feel better and stick to the BRATT diet for a couple days when you start to feel well enough to eat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no, msbelle! I really hoped you were not sick, and now hope you feel better ASAP.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, msbelle, I'm sorry! I hope you feel better soon.

BevDog! Excellent call on the ginger ale. I had forgotten I had some. That was lovely.

Bed with an alarm set for meds. Non 12-hour meds are a nightmare.

Oh msbelle, that sucks. And being in an ER all night by yourself sucks even more, on top of that! Yikes!!

My doggo got groomed this afternoon and I went to the store and then took a nap. But now I'm drinking a coke and feeling a bit better (or just more caffeinated and sugared?) and he's all fluffy!
