Smartie's Bar & Grill #74

Please don't say that. I want to think we will be free of this Chinese virus.

 

Ooops. Double post.

 

le cure

November will probably be a miracle cure.

 

My son tested positive 14 days ago. The rest of the family tested negative 13 days ago and I started symptoms 12 days ago. My son has had no symptoms in over a week. Mine went away after 5 days, but came back on day 7. My son and I get tested tomorrow. I suspect he'll be cleared and I won't. My wife got sick and dehydrated and spent a night at the hospital. They didn't determine anything, so she is dehydrated again and in a different hospital. She tested negative twice for covid and they tested her again today. She is on oxygen and has zinc and antibiotics in her iv. My life has sucked the last 2 weeks.

 

Also, my pullets are now laying but I can't give my "infected" eggs away. I'm getting 8 or 9 per day. The duck eggs are interesting.

 

I had a friend with guillaine-barre a few years ago. He fought his way back from it in his 80s and then had a heart attack after heart surgery. He was wheelchair bound for 3 years until his death. Al was a really nice guy. His wife took really good care of him. Al lied about his age to join the Army Air Corp. He didn't like to talk about it, so we avoided the subject. He was a B-29 gunner.

 

So then does the common cold or Flu kill.Of course it does.
80,000 or so in 2018.A Flu- shot is not a Vaccine.
There was a Swine Flu in 2009.Did the MSM make huge
headlines over that.Of course not.In fact the White House made sure
that testing for the Swine Flu was Not Reported.
Does any of that ring a bell.
Of course not.WHY ? Because it wasn't deemed Newsworthy.
Starting to catch on.

 

So sorry. Prayers for your family!

 

This hospital seems to be doing the right things, so we feel better about it. Stay away from Presby on Walnut Hill in Dallas.

 

My fever is back. Worse at night and my cough is worse, especially if I exert myself or bend over for more than a few seconds. Temp was 102 last night and 97.2 when I woke up. It's all over the place. I hope I just developed a sinus infection after beating the covid a week ago, but it's wishful thinking. I gave blood on the day that my son tested positive. I had to call and have them dispose that batch of double red. Now I can't give blood until after Thanksgiving.

Edit: My wife just texted me. Her covid test came back positive. She may be stuck in the hospital for a few days.

 

" I did Not have luncheon relations with that Woman "
" Now Timmy where and why did you say that. ? "
" On account that is what I heard Pop say on the phone
yesterday.I think he was talking to his office foreman."
" Foreman ... shoreman Timmy.Your father { pop } is an
honorable Pop.He would never do anything to embarrass hisself
or this Family. "
" Gee Ma,I don't know about that.I heard him cut a flutterblaster
once in the presence of my 5th Grade teacher { a Nun }."
" Well Timmy ... that is only because Pop was at the Summer Church
Festival and had a chili dog with the works on it.Plus a big plastic
cup of Beer some say wasn't Budweiser.He had to go to the Mens
room and bumped into Sister Anne on his way and yes,cut a fudgy."
" I know because I was right behind pop and heard it butt good."
" Timmie try and not let your imagination git the best of you. "
" But Ma,I heard it.Pop cut a Biggie.A whopper of a Flutterblast.?
" Makes no nevermind Timmie.Your Father { Pop } would never
have Luncheon relations with his secretary just for that reason."
" What reason would that be,Mom.? "
" To show off his true talent of cutting the cheese."
" What cheese would that be Mom.? "
" The kind with No name and all ... we'll talk about that after lunch
Timmie ".
" By the way Ma,what's fir Lunch. " ?
" Chili dogs,of course.But No beer.Just some Pop ".

 

Do you think?

 

Oh, my goodness I hope your wife gets over it ok and very sorry to hear your family is going through this. Do you think it is the virus that came back on you or maybe a different type? I hope you and your family come out of this feeling well and are ok. Well wishes and prayers for you.

 

We went on our weekly picnic this time we took the dogs again. I didn't go near the woods this time and didn't get redbugs as I did once before. Our game plan is this if anyone is there we leave if someone comes up we pack up and leave. Not meaning to be anti-social just staying safe. It was kind of spur of the moment instead of fried chicken and the fixings it was sandwiches and snacks.

 

This is a good one. Who doesn't like baby ducks?

 

" Gee Ma,what gives with this Pop stand.?
Don't they understand humor."
" Well Timmie,I think even St.Thomas Acquinas who sits by
our Creators side after lunch,wonders as well.
In Fact I think it was Mr.Acquinas who once said :
" To be humorous is to be found out " '.
" Gee Ma I thought it was that Dude who liked Lillies."
" You mean the great humorous Oscar Wilde,Timmy ? "
" Is that what he was Ma. ? "
" No Timmie.He was more of a Satirist ".
" You mean he liked to sit a lot.? "
" Yes,one could say that,Timmie. "
" Then I'm the one ... huh.? "
" Well we'll have to just wait and see,Timmie. "
" What fir what,Ma. ? "
" For you to mention your Love of Lillies ? ".
" Lilly Who Ma.I mean Lilly's what Ma.? "
" That's my boy.Yer catchin' on. "

" Tread lightly,she is near
Under the snow
Speak gently,she can hear
the daisies grow "

 

Viruses do not treat all people the same. We are seeing that with this virus it is so different because not everyone has the same symptoms. I can get a common cold and get pneumonia. Viruses suck.

 

Pneumonia is almost Always a very serious health problem.
Flu ... not so much.Most Seniors who contract pneumonia either
require serious hospitalization or Die.
No so with this Corn virus.In fact,our youth are almost entirely
Immune from this virus.Plus they may not have the capacity to
pass it along.We're still learning.But who are the ones Learning us.
That is the Question.

 

The very best dog to own they are super dogs and so intelligent. I will have to say after this year, my dog is smarter than some people. He knows the rules.

 

This disease is a strange one. People that are vulnerable have to be extra careful.
