What are you doing right now?

Eating boiled peanuts, that my sis and bil went 24 miles out of their way on the way to our Christmas dinner to get enough for the entire fam to have some. These are the small, red Spanish peanuts, the kind our grandparents used to grow, and they are really mild and delicious boiled. Yum!

I’m recovering from bronchial pneumonia

Two weeks ago I went to my family doctor. She put me on Tussin pearls and said it was just a light virus.

10 days go by and I’m so much sicker and the pearls aren’t doing anything. I’m coughing so bad I’m bruising my ribs. So I go to urgent care.

Urgent care gave me antibiotics and some light steroids and X-rays and said I have walking pneumonia. They said if I begin to feel dizzy when I’m coughing, my lips are blue I need to go to ER

So yesterday, after several days of being lightheaded and almost passing out as I’m going through coughing spasms and my family watches the color on my face change completely, my daughter talked me into going to ER. But instead of going to the local one we drive an hour and a half to Cleveland clinic ER. (there’s a minimum five hour wait in the lobby at one ER in Youngstown, and the other ER says it’s a two day wait)

Cleveland clinic has us registered in a room in literally less than 10 minutes. They were very thorough and I could not believe how courteous and friendly everybody was! After breathing treatments, X-rays, meds and new prescriptions, I get to go home.

Today I have very limited coughing! And when I do, I’m only lightly getting dizzy.

So what am I doing right now? I’m watching Water boil metaphorically.
