I'm sorry to hear about your discomfort due to the flu virus, which seems to be affecting others in your community as well. It's wise that you took the initiative to purchase the necessary medications and stayed hydrated while waiting for the bus. Your mother's chicken soup and strawberry meringue were thoughtful comforts during your recovery. Despite the illness, your determination to continue building your Steem Power is admirable, and reaching your goal of 8K SP is within reach. Enjoying a movie to relax and unwind is a nice way to end the day, especially with a favorite actor in the mix. Wishing you a swift recovery!
