    Fever is down to 98.1 this morning. No Tylenol in 13 hours.

            97.8 at about 3:45 this morning. Got up a bit after 8, feel better than yesterday, just has that body feeling of a low grade flu. My thermometer went on the fritz, so out to Amazon for a couple new ones. No coughing this morning, and Janet, still asleep, hasn't been coughing either. I have to think the body is handling it pretty well.

                Yeah, pretty good. We've had this one for 20+ years. But physics will always beat electronics.

                                Feeling much better today, temp normal with no tylenol. Curiously this one doesn't seem to be morphing into runny nose and bad congestion like the other times. Janet's still a day or so behind me, but she's downstairs now on the couch having coffee.

                                I think the cats are as upset as anyone. Their whole routine is off. Sat outside Janet's door all day.

                                      Um...not sure that particular example applies here.

                                      But I've never lost taste or smell. Can't smell much because my nose is plugged up, but no loss of the sense.
