Feeling Better … Really

Date October 11, 2007

When I posted earlier that I thought I was doing better, it turned out that I was wrong. Really wrong.

I spent the rest of the weekend in bed, and even missed some work this week. I finally went to a doctor Tuesday, since it marked 2 weeks that I had been sick. Boy was I glad that I went.

Turns out that besides a bad chest cold, I also had a ear, sinus and throat infection. They put me on antibiotics, an inhaler, nasal decongestant, and some over the counter meds. I finally saw some improvement yesterday.

Thanks to everyone who wished me well!

I hope to start posting again pretty quickly, and I owe Pearl a guest post, which I will be getting to very soon.

I managed to cook some meat on Saturday for the Command of the Grill promotion series that I’m planning. I still haven’t heard from anyone who was interested in taking part, but Art was kind enough to help me get the word out.

I hope I didn’t scare anyone off, I’m not a gourmet chef, and I fully expect some of the recipes not to come out so well, due to my ineptitude.

I’m only looking for a picture, and what you thought of the recipe you prepared. The posting doesn’t have to be on my site, I’m glad to just link to you.

If you are interested in participating, just leave a comment here, and I can get in touch with you to see what you want to cook. You don’t have to own the book, I’ll gladly email you a recipe from it.

More later…

      Good to see you are feeling better, Mike. You seemed to be feeling pretty good when I was over yesterday.

      Oh and by the way, the AdSense ads are kinda funny for this post. ;)

      Thanks Art! Those antibiotics really made the difference, I think.

      I’m seeing a whole bunch of Sinus relief ads. That is pretty funny.

      Hey stop blogging and go for rest! That’s all I can suggest :) Get well soon buddy and yes, thanks for dropping by my blog too :)

      No problem ReviewSaurus (Mayank, right?). I actually followed the link from Pearl’s blog, and subscribed your two blogs. They are right up my alley.

      Thanks for stopping by, and for the suggestion!

      glad you are feeling better Mike….. can’t wait to see that stellar post from you :)

      I’m not sure if you signed up for the blog action day, but just a reminder, its on Monday – so just one day to get that post ready!!

      Thanks Pearl!

      I know you’re probably going to start getting mad though. I had a friend I hadn’t seen in 12 years come here this weekend, and I didn’t check email or blogs or anything.

      I hadn’t heard of blog action day, and since it’s today, then I’m probably too late anyway.

      Mike, So very glad you are getting better. Sounds like you really had a doozy of a time getting past all that stuff. It’s just no fun at all. I hope the coming weeks are much better for you my friend.

      Nooo I’m not mad :) That sounds nice….. I’m sure you guys had a nice time catching up!

      Thanks Phil and Pearl!

      You can probably tell from my lack of posting, commenting, and blog reading, that I’m still under the weather. Thanks for all the kind thoughts.

      I’m hoping to get back into the swing of things here pretty quickly. Right now I’m trying to get caught up at work.
