Since we have been here five days now with six to go, we double checked what were going to wear the rest of the time. We each had to do a little laundry to make it come out right. Things dry pretty well overnight but it does depend on the material. I was also able to finish up two posts so I could give Bill Hubbard the flash drive again when we went to supper.
When we came back to the room, I started Post #9. We went to bed closer to 11. I had sent a birthday greeting to grandson Sam who turned 9 on Feb. 11. It took forever to get out.
During the night I woke up with a runny nose. I couldn’t get it to stop. I can’t remember if I mentioned the heat rash I’ve had on my arms inside the elbow joint. I’ve been putting Benadryl on it twice a day. So my arms were feeling a bit sensitive too. My stomach was a little queasy. It took awhile to get back to sleep. When I woke up, I barely had stood up when I had to rush to the bathroom. So I have diarrhea too.
We decided under the circumstances I should stay in the room for a while. Duane went to breakfast and I had a granola bar. After things had settled down a bit, I’ve been sitting here and writing Posts # 9 – thru # 12. It is about 11 am here. One of the girls from hotel came into clean. There is still wet laundry in different places. She did what she needed to do and we chatted a bit too. I think I will rest for awhile. Duane said he might come back to check but I’m betting he will wait until lunch hour. I asked him to take notes this morning. He also has to bring me the flash drive since I didn’t see Bill this morning. There have been a few persons among the guests that have had some trouble. I’m the first and I hope only in our group…………
…………One of the drivers came looking for me just before lunch. I still didn’t feel good enough to go. So I ate a granola bar and some pretzels and lots of water – took my AM pills – laid down and went to sleep. I woke up at 4:30 pm feeling a lot better. The electricity had been off again so I’m a little warm. I’m going to go take a walk and maybe Duane will be back soon for his rest.
While I was out, I talked to one of the other US guest. She said that there were several persons sick today.
