It's Monday!  Murad made the most incredible brownies yesterday and I was permitted to eat the edges.  I LOVE the edges!


I was really looking forward to the weekend.  A friend of ours invited us for dinner Friday night, but I think I caught a bug on Thursday night.  By the time Friday came, I was feeling like I had the flu.  So, Murad went and represented us both.  And I’m glad he did.  He brought home the most amazing food.  Home made Pumpkin Soup and a Apple Cobbler that was still warm when he came home.   Guess what I was doing at 11:30pm on Friday??  Yup....eating Apple Cobbler. 


On Saturday night, we went to see a very small production of "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas".  Murad bought tickets a while ago and we had high expectations.  We thought it was good.  The Whores were all excellent....great voices and good actors.



 I keep comparing all the characters to the movie with Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds..which we LOVE.  It was kinda strange that they cast a big gay guy as the Sheriff.  It was really awkward to hear him professing his love for Ms. Mona with a big gay lisp.  Talk about no chemistry:)



Sunday rolled around and we did some work around the house.  Well....Murad did some work....I retreated to the movie room as my flu symptoms were back and worsening.  Doctor gave me anti-biotics and said to take them regardless of what I had.  Apparently, the steroids I've been on..and now off completely.....can kill your immune system.  Glad I'm not taking them any more.


Quick update on the head:




We're basically seeing the neurologist every two weeks to monitor how I'm doing.  I'm feeling better every day and a lot of the issues I was having earlier with being foggy, bloating, hungry, not sleeping, mood swings....were all related to the medicine.  Now that i'm off everything, I'm feeling SO much better.  I'm sleeping pretty well now.   






I can't fly just yet....but maybe in 30-60 days.  I also can't exert myself.  For those of you who know me, that's not a problem.  I'm the guy that pays for a gym membership an never uses it.  Yup, I'm crazy.






Well....that's it for today.  I'm going to get to sleep and try to kick this flu. 


Talk to you soon!
