well I'm still here....achy and bitchy but still here.


 This is an close as you're going to get for a Monday post. I still feel like hammered shit and so far doing a lot of sleeping. Maybe by Wednesday. I had low something on my kidney blood work so I am on Renal Paxlovid. Jamie came and got me with the kids. Abby is positive and Jamie is pretty sure she is and Dylan just keeps marching on. So felt it was  ok to be around me. Took me to express care and got right in  and said the only place that had it was CVS further down I-35. The kids were hungry and wouldn't eat till I ate with them so as soon as I got out we went to Burger King. Damn. I haven't had a burger in months and it with the very hot and salty fries made my ole ass very happy. Good thing I ate it then cause between the awful taste in my mouth from meds and no taste  at all, I never would have been able to enjoy it. Well, later gaters..slept 11 hours and I'm already starting to nod off...loves ya sonsofbitches.

So thers 3 of you with covid and you went in a public restaurant? Seriously?

Leanna said...

Seriously? How or what are y'all thinking? You have COVID. Don't go spreading it around. There are people out there who can't afford to catch that shit because their immune response is low(like me). I can't even go out to the library for fear of ending up with it. Even though I have been vaxxed and had 2 more jabs to keep me safe I still have to go back for another jab because my system can't keep the antibodies floating for more than 3 months at a time. Please be safe and think of others too.

Whatever ydg, im just happy you are still here. This has been a super stressful 2 and a half years long time. I don't think you did anything wrong. I still go to the grocery store. I always wear a mask.
I went to see my doctor earlier this week, just to say hello and ask for a note than i can use for supplies.
I asked him about this paxlovid. He was noncommittal.
I told him that i have been lucky so far. He laughed and said everyone is going to catch it. He said that cases are on the rise.

I have mixed feelings about this doctor. He is honest and intelligent, but he is too young. Also he is too skinny.
I prefer a doctor with a little fat on his bones.

I'm assuming you did the drive-thru.

The recovery even from a mild case is not fast. Everyone I know who got sick enough with covid to have actual symptoms says it's a slow return to normal.

yellowdoggranny said...

thank you Nan for knowing me well enough to know we did drive thru...what the fuck people...don't you know me at all? fuck off..

Debra She Who Seeks said...

Sorry to hear that Covid has given you such a rough ride, Jackiesue. I hope all the sleep and medication helps you feel better soon. I'm sure all your vaxxes have helped lessen the symptoms -- damn, what would have been like without the vaccine? Hugs to you and the kids too.

yellowdoggranny said...

Debra..actually I'm doing pretty good. Seems Covid isn't effecting me but it's made people I know stupid..grrrrrrrrrr.
we're all doing well...thanks for the good wishes.

River said...

I've heard that covid leaves you feeling hammered, so I'm glad I haven't had it and hope not to. I stay home a lot and wear a mask every time I leave the house, so I should be okay, vaxxed and boosted too.

Very sorry to hear you got this. I hope the paxlovid and sleep can defeat it. Sleeping a long time is probably a good sign.

I'm so glad to hear you're on the mend! Too slow, I'm sure. Keep resting and drink plenty of fluids and stay as cool as possible.

Rad said...

Don't let this Covid bastard knock you down!

pam nash said...

Take care. Stay indoors - too damn hot to go out. Rest. Drink lots of fluids like water or ... uhmm ... water. Get better!

Marcia LaRue said...

I don't really know you very well, but I certainly assumed you were smart enough to go through the drive-thru window!

yellowdoggranny said...

I am doing so well...I have what is like the tail end of a head cold. No head ache no loss of taste or smell no stomach problems. First two days was rocky but I feel a 100% better. Going to wait till Tuesday and test again. He told me I could go out after a week, but I think I'll wait longer than that as I'm not exactly sure when I got it. plus fuck people I'm staying in again. thanks to everyone for the concern...and knowing I did the drive thru and not indoor burger king...sigh*..

I'm a tough ole bird...going to take more than covid to kick my ass..

Somewhere said...

Get well soon - and stay tough, ydg!

Tundra Bunny said...

Glad to hear you're on the mend, YDG! Sleep is a great restorative, along with plenty of fluids and rest, preferably in an air-conditioned abode. Nothing beats a hot, juicy burger and fries at a drive-thru -- who can wait til they get home to eat?! Reminds me of the A&W curb service restaurants back in the '60s and 70s when servers brought the trays of food to your car window -- I miss those!

squatlo said...

Take care of yourself, ma'am!

Valerie said...

Hey, Tundra Bunny, I worked at one of those A&Ws! Fun times. (Oops, dating myself)

Miss Jackie, I hope you feel 100% quickly. Take care.

Jimmy T said...

"Don't you know me at all? Fuck off." Yeah, that's pretty much been my mantra for most of my sdult life. Sounds like you felling somewhat better. Be aware the brain fog takes a while to clear, not that anyone would notice (ok that was an attempt at humor). Good to see you getting back to nearly normal (2nd attempt)...

yellowdoggranny said...
