Our son and his family are relaxing on a big pontoon with some of their family and friends this afternoon on a different lake. They also needed it. Their time at the lake was not very enjoyable or relaxing, between bad storms and a family emergency on her side.
I just got a notification that my daughter's youngest son had landed at his first layover on the way to a cruise to the Bahamas with his dad's family.
We are just relaxing at home today. My husband is feeling much better. Friday, all he did was spend the day curled up on the bed in pain. The doctor's office closed early, so we couldn't call, and he was in so much pain that he didn't want to get up to go to a walk-in or ER. He kept saying it wasn't bad enough to spend 7 hours waiting at the ER. The way he acted and described his pain, I thought his colon was rupturing. Our daughter finally called for some info that night. She asked what antibiotics they had put him on. When told the name, she said that it had done her that way, and they had to change it. She also said to drink a cup or two of a hot drink is what the doctor told her to do. He had a bottle of antibiotics he had been given for a sinus infection, just a couple of days before getting COVID, and the doctor changed him to something else because it worked better with the antiviral they put him on. He is going to call tomorrow and have them prescribe him enough to finish the dose of it. By bedtime, he was already getting relief, and yesterday felt much better, though he still sat around all day, not like his usual hyper self. Today, he is back to normal.
While we caught some pretty bad storms yesterday morning, we managed to dodge the brunt of the worst of it for the rest of yesterday and last night. Just barely south of us, tornadoes were popping up like popcorn, but we barely got sprinkles and a few gusts from those storms, although we could see and hear their lightning and thunder.
