Shingles go on and on and on.........

I'm into my sixth week of Shingles and it has been
very difficult.  The pain continues and although it
is much, much better it is still a constant which
I find drains all my strength.  I can't wear my
glasses so reading is a problem.  Thank goodness
for Kindle.  I can make the letters large enough
to read easily.

Friday last, Robert broke out with Chicken Pox.
He was able to get medical help and is on anti-
viral meds which has helped a lot.  He feels pretty
good at this point, but still has spots all over
his body.  He doesn't seem to be getting any
new ones, thanks to the anti-viral.  He's
supposed  to go to the VA on Tuesday, but I'm
not sure they'll want him to come.  We'll
check tomorrow.

Tomorrow, finally, the Septic people are supposed
to come a redo the septic system.  All of which
is very silly because the current one is just
fine, but the county has a rule that when a
house is sold a new licenced septic must be
installed!  We have a big pile of dirt in
the far back yard which will be nice to be
rid of.  Also, until the septic is done we
can't install the Solar panels which are
going to be set up back there.

This has been a tough move.  Moving at our
age, especially for Robert is difficult
enough without me being out of it for so
long.  Hopefully, things will be looking
up soon.
