How The Covid-19 Came About and Why We Need to Educate Ourselves

Monday Stuff and Thangs

I've been staying away from people for the past few weeks now. Not going to movies, restaurants, grocery stores, meeting with neighbors, etc. David is doing what is necessary, all the shopping and going to work still here in our little sweet part of Texas. Since I'm immunocompromised he has made it his job to do almost everything like that. I'm trying to be careful but it's kinda hard when you have dogs and a husband that believes what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Speaking of which, Did you hear that scientists in Canada are ramping up their work on the COVID-19 vaccine? Yeah, hockey season has been canceled until further notice.

Over the weekend I finally died. Yeah, I haven't had any sleep since Wednesday night. Having a weather front tends to make me stay up at all hours. The pain is just too intense to sleep. So there's that reason. I finally canceled out. I think it was about 1am Sunday morning that I finally collapsed into bed. I didn't wake up until almost Sunday night to go to the bathroom and then back to bed. I was that tired. I think I woke up finally at 6 am this morning and cleaned house even though I was still in pain. But hey, when you have messy dogs that like to drag their toys and blankets all over the house and then a grown man who leaves plates and utensils all over the kitchen counters, it's a wonder we don't have roaches or rats living among us.

Well, that's it for me today. Y'all stay healthy and safe and have a magical day.

Hilarious Art History

Thursday

I'm back from my appointment with my doctor. All my lab tests were great. Just my White Blood Cell count(WBC) was up as well as my Eosinophils. It's because I was going through a Lupus event at the time my blood was drawn. We talked at length about my immune health and Covid-19 and said from now on because I'm immunocompromised, he would like me to stay at home and not go out except in emergencies. So, he is telling all his patients to get on the Telemed bandwagon. This means all patients will forgo the usual office visit and go live online via computer or smartphone on a secure link at the designated time. He will take patients if they are sick with aches and pains at his office but for the most part, patients like me who are relatively healthy will do the Telemed from now on and only once a year see him in person for a physical. So, that works for me. I'm already staying away from people and I wear surgical gloves if I go out to get groceries or to appointments. Masks won't really help. You will still touch your face and not know it which will infect you. So I'm playing it safe at home.

I came up with something to entertain all y'all for the Friday slot on my blog. It's Hilarious Art History. I'll be featuring 3 art paintings that have been turned into memes. I hope it will make y'all smile or giggle a little during these troubling times ahead. Hey, it's my job. 

Yesterday, Lucy was outside in the courtyard with me as I was watering the lemon trees, hydrangeas, and the morning glory bushes. I still have bees going hog wild for the flowers all over the rosemary. She seems to be drawn to them because of the buzzing. I'm just waiting for her to get stung one day. Yeah, on day soon at the vet's office with her swollen mouth and maybe a reaction to boot. Her curiosity is going to get her hurt, bad.

Well, I have a few things around the house that I need to get done. Y'all stay healthy and safe and have a magical day.

Just a Quicky

I have a doctor's appointment in 30 minutes so I will be back later and I'll blog then. Y'all have a magical morning.
