Down And Out

I will be down and out for a few days. A couple of days ago I started getting a chest cold. I went to the doctors yesterday and when he came in and asked what was wrong, I told him I was dying. Without missing a beat he said he hoped I had already paid my co-pay for the visit then. I in-turn told him I wanted a Doctor, not a comedian.

It ends up I have pneumonia. The doc told me stay home and rest for a day or two but being the man I am I chose to go to work this morning. I should not have done that. I lasted only a hour before heading home.

I will get back to the blog this weekend. I have a 40 year old birthday post I need to do for the wife.

See y'all in a couple of days.

    MDR - soooo very sorry to hear this. and instead of writing everything down on what herbal medicines can help with pnuemonia - here is a link if you are interested:

    http://www.herbs2000.com/disorders/pneumonia.htm

    lots of good info there. and dear friend - get some garlic, honey and apple cider vinegar (with the mother in it!) pronto!

    please take care of yourself and rest, rest, rest! and eat lots of teas and broths!

    i am looking forward to the birthday post. i am sure that it will be written in your true awesome style.

    your friend,
    kymber

    A shot of Jack followed by a shot of hot pepper juice should do the trick. If not, rest, and lots of reading.
    Hope you get to feeling better soon.
