From the twilight zone...


I just thought I would do a little post as an update sort of thing. Not sure where to begin so I will just jump right in with saying when I started my blog break from this blog Roger was sick...we assumed with just a normal short termed flu. But since there is always something going on here, I was not going to mention it. I hate to be so boring...I was thinking give it a couple days and he will be okay.

But here I am mentioning it....he was sick for two weeks...fevers, chills, and sweats...with two visits to the doctor last week....he had his first night free of night sweats and feeling awful Monday night...this is after two trips to the doctor. He had ended up really dehydrated and low on potassium and sodium....anyway, Tuesday I said something to him about did he feel like he was getting out of the twilight zone? He said that described it exactly, but that he still felt boxed in....

We missed Easter with Lorelei...have not seen her since April 1....I have not been to the strip pits since some time the week before that. We did go for a short drive Sunday but I was too tired to enjoy it. I suppose the stress of it all. I was really thinking it was something besides flu. I figured he would end up in the hospital....thank God he didn't.

I have not accomplished anything I intended with my break from this blog...just could not settle in and work with worrying about Roger. Instead I have been spending a lot of time on Google Earth looking at photos...yesterday I kind of started feeling the return to normal. Hopefully I can get back in the groove and get a few things done.
