Checking in with four Blogilates thigh and butt workouts, including her new 12-Minute Thighs, which I really liked. It was mostly standing.

DH is still at the interview etc. Haven't heard anything yet!

Cynthia, I hope you feel better soon! The meds should help.

Barre3 Ballet Fit. These are good for me now b/c there's no cardio. I think last night's stretch wasn't right for me: every stretch was held for 3 deep slow breaths. Then I coughed for hours instead of sleeping. Got enough sleep eventually b/c I could sleep late.

Cheryl, your DH should get a hero's welcome home after all he's been through today. But you know that.

Hi Everyone!

Tonight was the last dose of the Tamiflu. I am so glad of that. That stuff makes me sick. It comes on like a wave 30-45 minutes after taking it. It makes me dizzy in the head, woozy in the stomach, messes with my taste buds, etc. Water tastes like bitter poison. Yuck! It didn't bother DH as badly but he still had some of the side effects.

No workout for today. I did my month end cleaning after work.

Have a Blessed evening!

Checking in with a 10-Minute Fitness Blender upper body strength workout, Jessica's 1-Mile upper body circuit, and a mile outdoor walk.

Diana, glad you're finally finishing that Tamiflu! I took it once, but I don't know that it cut enough time off the flu to be the worth the $92 it cost me.

Cynthia, I get you with the breathing and coughing. Rest and feel better! Yes, DH got a hero's welcome. He was so tired when he got home. He said his eyes were closing on the drive. I felt like I needed a nap when he left for the interview. That's what stress does! But he did well. The conversations at the meal were good; in fact, the pastor obviously implemented one of DH's ideas (we saw it in the church newsletter online today). The rehearsal went well. There was no time for the "performance" the way it worked out, and although DH sang during the rehearsal, he did not sing to wow anyone, although of course he can. When he left the recruiter said the other candidate is coming in from Colorado this weekend and there could be up to two more. But it went well and we are going there to church this Sunday on their request. We're trying not to be excited but DH really liked all the staff and the facility and we are hopeful for this one. So fingers crossed ... We'll be getting up early to drive the 1.5 hours to get there Sunday morning. Should be interesting!

Cheryl

Cheryl Sounds like the interview went well! There is a new flu medication that's only a 2 dose but it is expensive and our pharmacy didn't even have it yet. Based on my reading, the main reason to take something is it helps to prevent the "secondary infection" which is pneumonia. I never heard of it called that, but it makes sense.

Cheryl, sounds good, keep us posted.

Diana, no one has ever offered me any flu medicine, and I never think to ask. I'm feeling better today, but took the day off exercise.

Good Morning, Everyone! Happy Friday!

I hope I can sleep late tomorrow morning and get some rest.

Yesterday DH was not feeling any better and had diarrhea. He also had it all night. I pray he starts feeling better soon. Yesterday he had a lot of joint pain.

Cynthia There's normally a set of symptoms they look for and then test for the the virus. They look for chills, body aches, fever, etc. On Friday night we both had teeth banging chills. On Saturday my test came back positive, very quickly she said.

Last night: Basic stretches
This morning: Oxycise

Have a Blessed day and a great start to your weekend!
