Better Snow the next day....


So here's the next day of snow.... or maybe there was a day in between. This is the view to the front....


And this is leaning out the window looking out back. You gotta love a window you can slide open and step out of! The dog has taken to barking at the windows to come in, she likes to jump in and out. Silly dog. Or should I say silly us teaching her to do that?
`
So I got sick. Had a UTI and had to go on an antibiotic. Haven't been on an antibiotic in 21 years. Haven't had a UTI in 21 years. How do I know this? I was pregnant with Cory the last time I got sick enough to take an antibiotic. I don't mind telling you I was sort of in shock over the whole thing. I mean, I know in the grand scheme of things I have nothing to complain about, so many people suffer from serious injuries and infections but I think I've gotten so used to being well that it stunned me that I was sick.
`
It came on real sudden and went from 0 to 60 in 3 hours.... One minute I was fine, the next I thought I was going to have to go to an emergency room. I will spare you the details but considering how difficult it is to get me to the doctor at all, you can imagine the pain I was in that would make me even consider stepping foot in an emergency room. Again, I know how blessed I am that I haven't been the patient in the emergency room for so many years, it's hell to watch your loved ones there and it's hell to be there yourself!
`
Anyway, my angel of mercy, the best doctor in the whole world (Dr. Sejal Mattu, Gambrills) called me in a prescription at 8:30pm and saved my life! No exaggeration! That's how it felt. And now I'm right as rain. And I realize that I haven't been taking good enough care of my body lately and giving it what it needs... excuse me while I drink some more water..... so I will be better to myself in the future. Thanks to yoga and reiki I haven't experienced these kinds of things often but whoa! I have a new appreciation for how difficult it is for people who get these and other things all the time.
`
Anyway, off I go... got a ton of stuff to do for the SoulCollage workshop tomorrow-- Thank God I can do it :)

Sick

Sick, sick, sick.

I rarely get sick. And I hate it. But not as much as I hate whining about it. Especially when there are others with far worse problems. So enough.

Sorry to everyone who came to my classes. Extra relaxation for you next time!

As Mom Sue said, maybe God was giving me a day off. Which is unfortunately about to turn into 2....I don't think I can teach tonight either. My voice is gruesome.

And my family keeps yelling at me to rest. Rhia's been so sweet, taking care of me. Even Cory made me tea yesterday.

So all in all, could be worse. Could have a broken foot. Poor AM, wish I could make her tea that makes it all better....

Enough rambling.
