Be careful and take it easy. I had a series of bouts of dysentery while in the military and lost 46lbs in about 2 months.

And of course you would feel bad about missing work ~ that's our CJ. I was sorry when I heard you weren't able to make it to Andrea Shea King's show with Buzz Patterson. I was looking forward to your comments about the NYT hit piece on the military. Glad your back in the swing of things. Glad to hear you survived your icky sick!

Stomach bugs are hideous - then you're shaky for days afterward. Had I known you already had a bug, I wouldn't have sent you that one by e-mail. ;) Hope you're feeling better tonight & can enjoy your long weekend. Emily also has my sympathy... The pics are great. Cardinals are so pretty and I always think they know it. Doesn't look as if you got as much snow as we did. We had about an inch. Someone at the local post office had built a snowman about 2 ft. tall and it was still there this AM. Cute! Oh, CJ, I feel for you. Stomach bugs are hideous – then you’re shaky for days afterward.

A virus like that is terrible. I had one last winter similar to that. I was pucking and you know what at the same time. Fortunately it only lasted 24 hours which was plenty for me! :( Anyway, I'm glad that you're on the mend! The cardinals are just beautiful, thanks for the pics! CJ,

And the Cardinals ARE gorgeous and I'm glad you shared those photos with us. But...you lead us through all of those painful hours and days of feeling like YUCK, the trip to sick call, etc. YET...no diagnosis. Geez CJ, are you, uh, expecting or sumthin? :) Well…I’m definitely happy to hear that you are feeling MUCH better. And the Cardinals ARE gorgeous and I’m glad you shared those photos with us.

Thinking of sharing moments of beauty captured with a camera while you were struggling to get your bod and mind back in shape after a debilitating illness. The Cardinal pics are great. Is that snow upon which the red-feathered tenor is standing? On the bottom pic, it's as though you could stroke the monitor and feel the breast-feathers softness. Thanks a heap for sharing the beauty you observed. Take care of yourself - hope you're back feeling sassy and bushy-tailed real soon - - like now!! isn’t that like a military person?

That same thing clobbered me the day after christmas... I was tired at work all day, but by the time I got back to the park & ride in the evening, I didn't make it far from the bus to my car before I was on the ground puking. That lasted 24 hours, and then a week more of "other" indignities... it was still two weeks before I felt normal-ish again. And now that that's gone, i've got a cough that won't go away. Feel free to shoot me at any time, PLEASE! Aw, CJ – i know EXACTLY how you feel, literally.
