[Jaime caught me on film!! Here is what I do at least once a day!!]
Here we are, another blog entry complaining about life. But I had a friend tell me that that is what blogging is for. Just know you have been warned!!
I’m still not feeling well. One day I’ll be fine, the next day totally wiped out and have to stay down for a couple of days. It’s mostly extreme fatigue, headache, body ache, nausea and (fun one) diarrhea It’s getting a little old at this point. But I do have to thank my Heavenly Father for my good days. When I feel good, boy do I feel good. I will be a more grateful person for my health once I kick whatever is ailing me.
Enough on that. I forgot to mention in my last post that we had our big Sunday dinner. We had quite the houseful this time and for the first time since we started doing this I actually felt a little crowded. I don’t know why, we didn’t have any more people than we usually do, but for some reason it felt very crowded and HOT!! But that was probably due to the fact that I was feeling very sick and nauseated and trying to pretend that I didn’t. I don’t mean to complain, it was really fun and everyone had a good time. The kids seemed to enjoy themselves tremendously and so did all the adults. We have great discussions at these little get togethers and they help to uplift the spirit and get the mind to thinking. We had a pasta theme this time. So many different yummy looking dishes. Too bad I was too nauseated to enjoy any of them. We’ll have to do it again so I can actually eat some!!
Needless to say, I have not been exercising. On January 13 I went to Scott’s work to have my Google breakfast (I didn’t get to have it in December since the cafe’s were closed during that time). We parked the car in one area and decided to walk to the cafe. BAD idea!! By the time we got to the cafe I was so sick that I hardly was able to enjoy my breakfast. I tried really hard to enjoy it but this sickness is hard to hide. I drove home, put the kids on a movie and went to sleep, for 3 hours. I felt a little better after that, but had to take another rest later in the early evening. I was wiped out the next day too. I hope I get well enough to exercise again before my body gets so out of shape that I won’t get it back! A word for all you mothers out there, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!! I can’t help but think I’ve gone so many years worrying so much about my family and not taking care of myself that my body is tired of it and is demanding that I take care of it. I still have a hard time listening to my body. I still over do it on the days I feel good. I am trying though. I’m trying to go to bed early, rest when I need to, drink lots of water, take my vitamin and most of all pray and have faith that the Lord will take care of it in the end, as long as I do my part.
