Well my friends I am sick.  Been sick for a couple of days and it has not been fun.  But I did go to the doctor early and got my medicine so I would be well enough to come up for my Dad’s birthday.  Which is where I am right now.  When I went to the doctor my blood pressure was like 150/104. Not good.  But I hadn’t been able to take my pills and keep them down.  I am one of those people that throws up all the time when I’m sick.  So the doctor says I’m going to give you a anti-nausea shot and then you can go home to bed.  I said “Nope I gotta work” and she said, “We’ll see” So I got my shot in the right hip (ouch) and she said sit here for ten minutes and then you can go.  Ten minutes later she came back and said you can go.  By the way you have about twenty-five minutes to get home before that shot knocks you out. and she hands me a doctors note to stay home that day.
It was like a elephant on a hunt when the shot started to kick in.  I was crawling into my bed trying to give my husband last minute instructions when the world slowed down and I couldn’t make a complete sentence.  I had managed to get in the bed and started to get settled and I was out. I couldn’t believe I got bootie darted so I would sleep and stay home.  Now I know how the elephants feel when they get shot.  My big ass got so heavy and I felt so weird. But I slept about seven hours straight and when I woke up I felt better and I could keep my pills down!  Today I have a little cough and a lot of snot.  So much that last night I accidentally pulled out my nose ring and lost it somewhere in my bed and didn’t notice until today.  So the nose ring is history.  I was probably to old to have it anyway.  In couple of days I should be as close to new as a 35 year old fat chick can be.
