• Calm Before the Storm?

  I thought there was supposed to be some calm before the storm, 'cause if the calm is happening now, then I'm in for a terrible storm.  Maybe the calm was before the initial onset of bronchitis in the later part of November.  Or maybe there should also be another saying about the calm after the storm.  I don't know, but I got some more drugs in me, more doctor bills to pay, and I'm hurting worse.  I know, it takes time for these new drugs to do something.  The bad thing is that these are not something new and different, just more of the same, but stronger and more of it.

  I'm not a big "meds" person, but sometimes there is a need.  Then once your immunity system has been shot by the bacteria and the drugs, what does one do?  I have the answer!

  FoodSaver®

  I have a FoodSaver® that vacuums pack food and keeps it way better than other means.  This is because it takes out all the bacteria growing air.  I have rolls that allow you to make whatever size bag that you want for the different cuts of meat, and the different vegetables that we store in it.  I also store things like gun parts to prevent rust, medical supplies for a packable emergency kit, and things that I just don't want handled.

  So, what if I seal myself in one so that the bacteria can't grow in me for awhile and then my Hunni can cut me out when I'm all healed.  This would do two things: (1) cure me, and (2) keep me from spreading the germs to other people.  It would be my own little bubble.

  Okay, so there's some fallacies to this theory.  First, I can't quite make a bag that large for me to fit in.  And there's no other issues to think about since I can't get in it.  No "bubble boy" for me.    It was a thought, you must admit.

  I'm just sicker than I was yesterday, and I won't go into all the gory details.  ***anticipates the sighs of relief*** Just sicker.

  The FogWalker is going to pay some bills and do some computer work....or maybe not...
