Thanks for the well wishes alas it was not meant to be. I stayed up most the night hacking with the blasted thing now in my chest. I finally got into some form of slumber around 6:00AM and woke up again at 2:00 PM. I got up and made a protein drink which totally wiped me out. A friend came over at 4:30 and brought a movie so I watched it with her. I started to feel markedly better during that movie. I could finally smell again (my little schnauzer needs a bath) and I could just feel the strength coming back strong.
I was able to get dressed and go out and shovel for the horses and throw hay. I feel strong again though not quite 100% yet. I just did 15 pushups. While I was sick I made a goal to myself to do 100 pushups every day that I am on vacation. Of course not all at once but every chance I get I will drop and give myself 10 or 15 or whatever number I can manage. If I do this and keep hitting the assist machine at the gym I will be able to do a bw pull-up before I know it. I got 15 in tonight so far and am going to drop soon and do 15 more.
I think I am insane.....
