Back Home & Plugging Along

Our vacation ended in a way we would have never imagined…on Saturday the last full day at sea, I woke with a sore throat and spent most of the day in bed. Ron went on a “Behind the Scenes” Tour and thoroughly enjoyed himself. Throughout the day Ron checked on me, I was sleeping and beginning to feel like I was going to cough up a lung.

We made it to down for one last dinner with Christi & Doug, the conversation was great but the service not so much. We were supposed to get an anniversary celebration dessert but it never appeared. Really wasn’t too surprised since the service at dinner was almost nil. More about that later…

…really wanted to let everyone know we are home. Monday I spent the day sleeping, hacking, hacking and sleeping. Ron made it over to the Dolata’s for a family barbeque and visit with the kids, inlaws & grands. Tuesday afternoon I was able to get in to see my doctor. Yep Covid had struck! Dr. Amy said she hadn’t seen a test light up so fast and so bright in forever. Two kinds of antibiotics and back to bed I went. Ron stopped at the grocery store when he went to get my medications and we just rested for the night.

Wednesday was another day of sleep for me…Ron went to work and ended up coming home as he started showing symptoms of Covid so a test was done, a call to the doctor and meds for Ron were ordered.

Today is Thursday and we are both moving slowly, coughing up a ton, sleeping and drinking fluids. We have accepted we are down for the count and we hope after a couple of more days of rest and meds we will be up and going again!

So thankful for B & D and their continued help with Charlie, sending home leftovers and checking on us.

I will start writing again in a couple of days…just wanted to check in and let you know we had a great vacation, it just didn’t end the way we had thought it would.

Hope y’all are doing well!!!
