I’d be in the hospital. I have had the flu since last Tuesday. It was only last night (Sunday) when things got even remotely better than they had been.

Fever and chills and coughing up a lung. Fever and chills and coughing up a lung. Fever and chills and coughing up a lung. That’s been my entire week.

During this time I thought, “If I was 80, this would have put me in the hospital”.

BRUTAL.

That illness seems to be going around. So sorry you’re in the throes of it.

And I tried to comment on your last post since I had the distinct pleasure of riding with my family on the original GraveDigger when we lived in North Carolina. It was quite a ride.

Well, thank goodness you aren’t 80! :)

Feel better soon – spring should be right around the corner with some fresh air to clear out the germs from all our lives. It is long overdue!
