Lately I’ve been pretty good at getting posts up very regularly, multiple times a week at least…
But in the last little bit I’ve gone quiet.
Its because I took my kids on vacation, and decided to be quiet about it until I came back.
Little things happened on my last trip like my car accident on the way to the airport, that I was being superstitious and didn’t want “bad juju” or whatever if people saw and were jealous that I took two trips right in a row, so I waited until I got back to let people know.
And I just spent a beautiful week with my kids and my sons’ girlfriend in Italy, mostly in Rome, but also in Venice. Mostly on a budget, and I’ll write how I kept the costs down.
On the last day there, one that was anyhow just travel back from Venice to Rome to the flight home, I came down with something, and by the time I got home I could barely breathe, even with my inhaler. I went to the doctor and got diagnosed with walking pneumonia, and put on steroids, antibiotics, medicine for a nebulizer, and a medicine to help with the cough.
I’m two days on the medication by now and already feeling loads better, if not totally out of the woods. I still have a bad cough, but my head doesn’t feel like it’s splitting open every time I cough, and I can take deep breaths without feeling a pain in my chest.
I’m now beginning to play catch up, responding to emails from my week+ away from my “office” (not that I have an official one in my small apartment where I work from home, but, you know), and finally getting posts live that have been waiting in my inbox.
So I still have 4 more posts about my cheap trip to bulgaria. Then I have another 3 or 4 posts about my trip to Italy.
And 2 college classes to catch up on from my week away. At least they’re online so they were recorded.
And a to do list a whole mile long. While still recovering.
I can do this.
Just wanted to update you.
