Grateful for this Saturday

I woke up to sunshine this morning which was wonderful. I did wake up quit early for a Saturday so I decided to go back to bed and watch an episode of Drop Dead Diva. Good decision. When I did drag myself out of bed, I managed to eat piece of toast and drink a cup of tea. That was wonderful. I had a visit from my younger sister and her family which was a nice break from the boredom and then I had the house to myself for a few hours. I have eaten half a small piece of steak and salad tonight and while I feel nauseous again, it was really good. I was so hungry. Universe 1) I am grateful for the sunshine today. It is so much easier not to be miserable when it is sunny. 2) I am grateful I was able to have a rest in bed this morning. 3) I am grateful I was able to keep the tea and toast down that I had for breakfast. 4) I am grateful for the visit from my sister and her family. 5) I am grateful for the snuggle on the couch I had with my little nephew. Those moments are so precious.

Grateful for this Friday

I started throwing up again last night and was very close to calling an ambulance because my head started pounding worse than any migraine I have ever had but I ended up settling down and woke up to get ready for work with burst blood vessels under my eyes and on my cheeks and forehead. Not terribly attractive. I took myself off to work anyway and managed to get 2 meetings and a bunch of emails answered before running off to throw up again and my boss telling me I had to go home and rest or he would smack me and I replied that he should wait until I am well enough to enjoy it! I made it home and while I have only been sick once more, I still feel really nauseous, tired, dizzy and just generally yuck. The day wasn't all bad though because it was a beautiful warm sunny day so that was wonderful. Universe 1) I am grateful I was able to get back to sleep last night after being so sick. 2) I am grateful I was well enough to get to work this morning. 3) I am grateful I managed to ge

Grateful for this Thursday

I dragged my sorry arse to work today and I made it which is good. I managed to get quite a bit of work completed today and that puts less pressure on tomorrow. Universe 1) I am grateful I was able to go to work today. 2) I am grateful that my day was quiet although I had a lot to do 3) I am grateful I didn't throw up today and grateful I made it to the bathroom in time for the other. 4) I am grateful I drove again today because it is a lot easier and quicker to drive 5) I am grateful that it cooled down for my trip home since I don't have air conditioning 6) I am grateful my head has just started to pound and that it didn't start while I was at work. Blessings

Grateful for this Wednesday

I had to have a day off work today. I woke up at 3am and was getting too well acquainted with the toilet bowl. Now, if the throwing up wasn't enough, asthma and a really sore chest meant that trying to catch my breath in between the goings on was difficult and painful. Bless my father, he seems to think that he needs to remind me to get up for work so he came pounding on my door to get me up for work when I had already decided I just couldn't go, then he pounds on my door just as I had fallen asleep to tell me he was leaving and the 2 hours later and again 2 hours after that he calls me to check if i am ok. I know this would seem very sweet to anyone else but to me, I feel completely suffocated and i just needed to catch up on sleep. Good grief. Anyway, I went to visit Doogy who seems to be obsessed with arses, ok, just injecting them rather than the arm, but I convinced him to go for the arm and while my tum isn't at the throw up stage, lets just say that the other end of

Grateful for this Tuesday

A short one today again. Universe 1) I am grateful I have a pharmacy just around the corner from work so I could get ventolin today. 2) I am grateful I have flexible working hours and that I could arrive later to work this morning. 3) I am grateful I didn't happen to throw up today even though I feel quite ill 4) I am grateful my migraine went while I was teaching. 5) I am grateful I wasn't able to put my contacts in because of the shaking in my hands because it means that I don't have to go through the hassle of taking them out and cleaning them before bed. Blessings

Grateful for this Monday

Just a short entry tonight because I am really sleepy after an early start and a night out with a girlfriend Universe 1) I am grateful I managed to get to work before the sparrows had started farting. Blimey it was difficult 2) I am grateful that the meetings that I had today went really well. 3) I am grateful my sister won Oprah tickets. Something good for her. 4) I am grateful for the sunny and warm weather today 5) I am grateful it didn't start raining until I had finished work and didn't need to walk anywhere too far in the rain. 6) I am grateful I got to have dinner with a girlfriend today and actually talk to somebody who has a clue. 7) I am grateful I got home safely in the rain. Blessings

Grateful for this Sunday

I was so pleased to wake up and see the sun, mainly because it was looking like I was wearing pj's or an evening dress to work because they were the only things that were clean and I really didn't want to be in a scratchy lacy g-string/thong all day at work either. I got all my washing done and my nails and toes. Most impressed actually. I tried to avoid a sleep this afternoon, and succeeded, because I have a really early start tomorrow morning and I need to get to bed early. Universe 1) I am grateful I woke up to the sun this morning. 2) I am grateful I got all my washing done today thanks to mother nature being on my side. 3) I am grateful I got out in the sun today. My brain doesn't cope too well when it is sun deprived. 4) I am grateful I am able to indulge and get my nails done and a pedicure. It is a little luxury that I do enjoy. 5) I am grateful my younger sister and her family were able to share dinner with us. When they come over, we get to have a roast din
