Judging and the writing up of the blog on the winners has been going strong. WAS going strong, until Tom got sick about six days ago. It kept on, so I finally had to take him to the doctor today. The diagnosis: “Acute sinusitis/Pharyngitis/Bronchitis.” I suppose it could have been worse. He’s never had his tonsils out, so I’ve been thinking it was tonsillitis and had visions of popcicles galore for a long time to come after surgery.
He had to have a shot, get some antibiotics, nose spray and strong cough syrup, so hopefully will be better in a day or two. At least he’s no longer running fever. Taking care of him can be a “pain,” though! (Just kidding. I love him to pieces and when he hurts, I hurt.)
I’ve set myself a deadline of tomorrow, or if not by then, Wednesday, so y’all please understand – show some empathy, if you’ve ever been sick – and pray with us for his quick recovery now that he has medications.
Many blessings to each of you today! Dee
P. S. I didn’t even mention that my left hand is mostly numb this afternoon from some shots I had to get in the palm of my hand for a couple of “trigger fingers” there. And, that’s not even my shooting hand! But, the gun is loaded and ready with a round chambered, so walk easy!


Sounds like Tom needs some potent “anti-itis”
