I have an oncologist appointment tomorrow afternoon.  All I’m going to do is give some blood so that they can do some more blood work to find out why my BCR abl has shot back up.  Afterwards I’m going to have some much deserved ME time.  Right now I’m fighting off a cold and I’ve got a sore throat and some congestion.  I think I’ve caught my daughter’s cold.  If I’m not much better tomorrow I may be spending my me time at the doctor’s office.

I was under the weather and didn’t feel like posting last night so I guess I’m another day in the whole.  Oh well.

Spent the day in Tuscaloosa watching my son practice with the Million Dollar Band.   We left soon after the band marched down the street toward the stadium.  My team is loosing and unless a miracle happens they won’t win tonight.  But, that’s ok.  I got to see my son play out his dream of being in the Million Dollar Band.  He should graduate in December so he doesn’t have much longer.

365 Day Photo Challenge, Dehydrated, Hot Shower, Humid, Roof Top Work, Sick, Too Hot

1TH_0380

I had to work on the roof today for far too long.  At least the temps were in the mid 80’s and it was overcast for most of the day but the humidity was up and that’s what did me in.  By the time quitting time came around I was soaked to the bone.  I was a bit tired when I got in my truck to go home but the closer I got home the worse I felt.

After arriving home I took a long, hot shower and I felt a little bit better.  My wife had supper ready but I just didn’t feel hungry enough to eat.  Right now I’m sitting in my recliner and as soon as my girls get home I’m heading to bed.  Maybe I’ll feel better after a good nights sleep.

005

It’s been a rainy, dreary day here in the deep south.  Expecting rain the rest of the week.  We may have a decent weekend but that could change.  Oh well, can’t have everything.  At least it’s not freezing rain or snowing.

First day back to work since the time change.  I made it ok with no problems.  I’m actually looking forward to getting the rest of the week behind me and get to the weekend.  I’ve got an opportunity to teach at a college on Saturday afternoon and I’ve got a meeting to attend to on Sunday.  Not much of down time but at least I’ll get out of the house for a while both days.

Pictured above is queen bee, Sophie.  She thinks the runs this house.  She’s spoiled rotten and I must admit I’ve made her that way.  She follows me to the bathroom every morning just so that I can turn the water on in the sink so she can get a drink of water.  She does this too in the evenings as I’m getting ready for bed.  She doesn’t do this to anyone else but me.  She’s my sweet little girl.

I was stood up.  It’s just as well.  I didn’t really feel like doing a shoot today anyway.  I haven’t heard from her nor will I call or email her to find out why.  I’ll just leave it alone.  I went straight to the doctor to be diagnosed with Bronchitis.  I’m running a fever of 101 and I don’t feel very well.  I”ll have to take another day off but maybe I”ll feel better by Tuesday.

Good night all.

It’s official, I’m sick.  Didn’t go to the doctor which I guess I should have but I’ve got enough prescription drugs to cure just about anything.  If I’m not any better by Monday I’ll go after work.  I’ve got a photo shoot tomorrow which we’ve had to postpone several times due to weather and other events so I’m going to try to make it so that we won’t have to postpone yet again.

I made it.  We all made it to the weekend!!  I’m I’m not any better by in the morning then I’ll be making yet another trip to the doctor. I heard today that one of my lunch partners was diagnosed with the Flu yesterday and I sit right next to her on most days.  I really hope it’s just another round of the crud and not the Flu.

I’ll be going to bed soon.  I hope everyone has a great weekend!!.

It hasn’t been a full week and I’m already coming down with something else. I’ve got chest congestion and I’m coughing.  I can not afford to be sick anymore so I’ve got to go to work.  Looks like if I can just make it through the day tomorrow I’ll go to the doctor on Saturday.  I just hope I can make it through the day tomorrow.

Today was a bust as far as the weather goes.   The weather people has been calling for ice and sleet for over a week.  My company closed at 10:30 this morning but I stayed until 1:30 when my wife called and told me it was getting bad at the house.  By the time I got home it had already quit and the roads were drying out.  There may be some frozen spots on the roadway where there were some puddles but that should be it.

Tomorrow is Friday, at least it better be.  Going to the doctor on Saturday and hopefully I have a photo shoot scheduled for Sunday.  I’m going to really enjoy this weekend as it should be fairly nice outside. Mid to upper 50’s forecasted.

I’ve been sick since Sunday and so far I’ve missed two days of work.  I’ll be taking off again tomorrow to go back to the doctor to see if I can get another shot to hopefully finally get rid of this mess.  I’ve been sick more since I’ve been diagnosed with CML than in the past several years combined.  The doctor did say that my immune system will be low but I wasn’t really prepared for all the time off that I’ve had to take so far.

365 Day Photo Challenge, Alabama, Cahaba Lilies, Cahaba River, Photo, Photography, Sick

Regrettably, I went to work today. I should’ve stayed at home and rested.  Tomorrow may be the day I do stay home and see if I can’t get over this mess. I really can’t afford to take off from work but if I don’t feel any better than I do now my butt is not getting out of bed.

Pictured above is the infamous Cahaba Lilies.  They only grow in and around the Cahaba River here in Alabama.  Many photographers flock to this river to take pictures of these lilies.
