My laptop...

I don't think I mentioned how awesome it was having that laptop with me on vacation.

That is the best purchase I have ever made.

It was SO heavy though... after carrying it around all day through 2 different airports I knew something had to be done before my return trip.

So I bought a cool little rolling laptop case... coming back to Miami was a breeze! It has space for clothes too... to double as a weekend bag. So I think that may be the only bag I take with me to Orlando in June.

I've already got the ticket and the room... I can't wait!

Bleh...

The week leading up to Valentine's Day I was sick... REALLY sick, with the flu, which after about 5 days turned to bronchitis. I went to the doctor, had the chest X-rays... got prescriptions for antibiotics, steroids, a new Albuterol inhaler and had to use a nebulizer while I was there. Bleh.

I had that annoying and lingering cough for a couple weeks. I went on vacation on February 28 and had to use my inhaler quite a bit while I was gone. So I don't think the bronchitis ever fully went away.

I flew back to Miami on March 9th... March 11th I was sick again... starting with a sore throat. I missed work on the 12th because I couldn't stop sneezing and I just don't think that mixes with food. I felt a bit better on the 13th so I went back to work... around noon I really started to feel bad again. That evening I had a fever so I was back at the doctor again yesterday... yep... bronchitis again. So now I'm on Advair indefinitely. Singulair too. And another round of antibiotics... oh joy! Luckily he gave me samples of all of it this time... he's also ordering a nebulizer for me so next time this happens I can treat myself and save a trip to his office.

Did I say "Bleh"?

Bleh.

Home Sweet New Orleans

We spent last weekend in New Orleans. Our first trip since Hurricane Katrina. We had a really good time. Driving in to town was a bit emotional for all of us... there are still a lot of areas that have damaged buildings, or places where everything is just gone.

When I get back to Miami I'm going to donate some money towards the rebuilding of one of my favorite cities. A place that years ago I wanted to move to. My home away from home...

New Orleans is a beautiful old city, and she deserves more help than she's getting.
