Jan 2018

I took the first two weeks off work in January to spend with my #2-son who was home for winter break and was sick the entire time. Ended up on antibiotics, albuterol, steroids. Now my bronchitis is much better but all the coughing has thrown out my low back. Bending, lifting, coughing kills me. Kept me from the March today, too. I guess this too shall pass, though. Hugs to you.
