Day 5, 6/26 I'm sick, shopping and Cinnamon Bay
Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2007 5:28 pm
Through Monday night I could tell my ear was worsening. I felt fluid draining and my ear was painful to rest on. I was getting worried and lay there at times thinking and at times dozing. When I woke up, my ear canal was completely swollen shut! It felt like the side of my face was stuffed with cotton. Worried, I called Myrah Keating center and they were fantastic. I made an appointment for 2 pm. Meanwhile, my husband called back to our pharmacy to double check on the last meds I was on successfully. I was already on the right stuff and he told me to up the dosage, meaning I would run out. So he called Chelsea pharmacy and was able to order more there (he is a physician). Very handy with the VI being American. With antibx and motrin, I started to feel better. We left the kids (remember 18, 15, and 12 so not child abuse) swimming in the pool and we went to Chelsea pharmacy, then on shopping. I loved Bamboula and got a starfish tortoise shell hair clip. By the time we got back to the villa, I felt better and cancelled my doctor's appointment. We gathered everyone up and went to lunch.
Lunch was at Sun dog cafe. This was fantastic! I know my husband had shrimp ceasar salad, Fish tacos were ordered by somebody also. We each had two drinks a piece. The kids favorite was passionfruit-raspberry smoothy- very tangy and tasty.
Leaving we went to Cinnamon beach. I had thought I would rent a kayak, but I was too tired from the sun and my ear infection. The sand was blowing up and stinging a little so we didn't stay long.
At home, I read a book and started to doze on the deck of Sapphire Breeze. It was relaxing, until I realized I was beginning to feel chilled and went and crawled into bed. I had a mild fever, and everyone was all worried, but I sent them out to the Beach Bar to eat while I slept it off. They came back, I had rested and they brought me a Mahi sandwich. Its not quite as good having it as takeout, but I was feeling better which was ultimately more important than making it to the Beach bar one more time.
