Re: Hey
Hiya hot stuff,
So sorry to be quiet.  I’ve been sick for two weeks with a wretched cough.  The cold meds make my brain mushy.  I’ve even been too tired to play!  
I hope to be much better soon and will write with something juicy.  
Keep misbehaving!

Soups to remember

From my private journal

Jun. 14th, 2017 2:03 pm

I’ve been sick with a wretched cough for nearly 2 weeks. I have eaten so much soup and want to remember them for the next time the germs catch up with me. 

 These are from restaurants that deliver via Doordash, GrubHub or Foodler, or available by sweet-talking Hubby into picking up for me.

  • Greek Corner – Avegolemono chicken lemon rice soup 
  • India Palace – spicy chicken soup 
  • Au Bon Pain – chicken noodle soup or pumpkin bisque
  • Pandan Leaf – Thai chicken coconut milk soup 
  • Asian House – Thai rice chowder 
  • Mary Chung’s – suan la chow show – spicy pork wontons soup with bean sprouts 
  • Panera – French onion soup
  • Genki Ya – Miso soup 
  • Dumpling House – chicken corn soup

Other soothing concoctions:

The Neighborhood – The Cream of Wheat is soupy and comforting

Mary Chung’s – Yu Shiang Eggplant with shredded chicken has a spicy sauce that feels great on a sore throat and opens the sinuses

Here’s to better health in the days ahead!

No getting shot

June 14, 2017 Wednesday

7:25 PM Sassy
Were you in the office today?

I was thinking of you when I heard about the shooting of the Republicans from Congress at the softball practice.

7:53 PM Phil
Yup but that was a long way from me and I don’t advertise my political orientation

Thank you

7:54 PM Sassy
Was everyone talking about it?

7:55 PM Phil
Yeah. I was too busy to notice much

7:57 PM Sassy
Might be healthier that way.
Wacky day between GOP and UPS shootings!

7:57 PM Phil
No lie!

7:58 PM Sassy
Have you ever been where there was live gunfire?

7:59 PM Phil
Other than a firing range, no
Like to keep it that way

7:59 PM Sassy
I was listening to the CBS Evening News and they interviewed a couple of Congressmen who were there and they said they’d never heard it like that before and were freaked out.

7:59 PM Sassy
Yes please! No getting shot please!

8:02 PM Phil
Not if I can help it

Ted Yoder goes viral

June 13, 2017 Tuesday

5:23 pm Sassy
Went to work but came home midday again.  Still coughing too much!

There was a wicked thunderstorm with HAIL!  Wowzers.  When it was over, it was 20 degrees cooler.  Hallelujah! 

9:09 pm
Fun story of how a dulcimer player went viral! 
Read Ted Yoder’s tale.  His music is so soothing.

The day our world was flipped right side up

Cough central

June 12, 2017 Monday

Greetings from cough central!

Another day, more soup.  This is getting ridiculous!  I went in to the office but ran out of energy before lunch time.  Argh. 

Hubby picked me up, got my favorite Chinese soup – suan la chow show – and yu shiang eggplant, hoping they will cure me.  I ate them and fell into bed.

I had Thai coconut chicken soup for supper… I’m going to make a list of all the soups I’ve eaten so I can find it easily next time I’m sick.  Heh.

After 11 days of coughing I am running out of soups and wondering if I will ever get better.  Might be time to go to the doctor.  Yuck.   Usually when I think that, I start to get better.  Hope that works this time!

About time! Slacker

You know… every now and then – not often – he says something and I know he’s joking, mostly… but… I decide I don’t have to write back for a while so I don’t tell him that staying home when you’re sick and working from there even though your brain is mush?  IS NOT SLACKING.  *sigh
