The Sound of Silence
They say that introverts gain energy from reflection and lose energy in social gatherings. Yeah, that's me. I like being around people, but it does suck my energy. This past week, we had a house full of invited guests, and it was great to see everybody. But when everyone was gone, I found myself breathing a little easier. One of the things that I really like about our house is the quiet. We are a long ways from the road and any neighbors. In the winter, the silence is palpable. Justin ended up in the hospital yesterday with extreme side back pain. He told the doctor that he had sprained his oblique muscle. Nope, the doctor said, pneumonia. So they set up an IV with antibiotics and opiate pain relievers. Today, he's already feeling better, but I hope they can figure out what caused the fluid in his lung. He had pneumonia a few years ago, but it was associated with a bad cold and fever. This presentation was much different with just the extreme back pain. Young
