Hi Hap,

-> the time this hits the upload here/download there, she will be doing
-> better.  Is she starting to cluck from all the chicken soup?

 hn> It's monday, she's headed back to school

Good, as long as she doesn't over do.


 hn> today! That Tami-flu really works! She
 hn> knew she had the flu and still had all the
 hn> symptoms...but not as severe as if she
 hn> didn't have the medicine. She took the
 hn> last of the pills Sunday night though she

I've not had the flu since that came out.  Actually, I've not had any
major case of the flu in years but I do get bronchitis on a regular
basis. Are you sure it wasn't all the chicken soup that made her feel
better?


 hn> claimed she didn't need it by then.
 hn> We'll see how her stamina holds up today!

That's the big question.  With all the kid's germs, she may be
susceptable to another round if she's not careful.

-> Did she get the regular flu shot?  I got it but have been waiting on the
-> H1N1 to be available here.  If not anything else, I see my pulminologist
-> on Nov. 16.  If he has the vaccine, I can get it then; otherwise, it's a
-> matter of waiting until I hear of a clinic with a decent supply
-> available.

 hn> Nope did not get a regular flu shot (yet) and
 hn> the H1N1 vaccine has not made much of an
 hn> appearence yet. She won't need it now anyway.

I'm still waiting..............

-> So could I but the low 60s are coming back tomorrow.  Time for heartier
-> eating again; I've got a couple of chicken breast halves baking in the
-> oven right now.

 hn> Low 60's is fine summer weather!

It's nice fall weather here.  I'd like summer to be no higher than the
mid 80s with the amount of humidity here (I can take it hotter, dryer.)
but that doesn't seem to be possible.

->  HN> Now you've shifted to Tri-Care for life
->  HN> though right?

-> No, that comes once we hit 65.  Right now it's Tri-Care for retirees,
-> choice of Prime, Standard or Extra.  We're staying with the Prime we had
-> while Steve was active duty; I need the coverage.

 hn> Yep, I always get as much coverage
 hn> as I can afford. All it takes is one trip
 hn> to the hospital to wipe out years of
 hn> savings!

And we're trying to avoid those trips to the hospital. I was in
overnight for some surgery in HI in 2002 but in from Saturday nght until
Friday morning the year before when I broke the elbow.  I had some
problems with my asthma that kept me in longer.

->  HN> "right" spot! YOW!!

-> Agreed there--and I let them know.

 hn> No way to stop that yelp that I know of!

No, and they expect it.  It's part of their job to make you yelp.

-> Probably not; it doesn't seem to grow that well in the south.  We had
-> some in a flower bed at Fort Hood but IIRC, it never did anything but

 hn> Dunno how it grows in the south, never
 hn> tried it there...grows quite well here!
 hn> And it's great to plant with roses, as
 hn> it tends to keep the aphids a bit at
 hn> bay! Bugs don't like garlic very much!

Nor do vampires. (G)
