Day 360 - back on the bad boys!



anti biotics

 Bee coz I...am just about to celebrate my 4 week anniversary of coughing my lungs up I thought I would celebrate by going back on these bad boys!

Just when my internal organs had forgiven me too!

Ah well i need to get well as they say and the upside is once I am better I can go run around my beautiful lake!

L: ham and salad grain wraps

Day 358 - Space Junk!

Bee coz I...didn't get killed by space junk while I was mowing my lawn yesterday and I survived my first zumba class in 3 weeks, I consider this Saturday to be my best in a few weeks.

The toxins in the anti biotics and 2 1/2 weeks of pain medication have taken their toll so I researched some good natural ways to help flush all the toxic crap out of my organs. I ate raw grated beetroot and lemon juice with flaxseed oil through out the day and drank cider vinegar and honey in hot water the last two days in a row, the bloating in my stomach and fluid is gone!

I had a nice early night but had to pick Billy up from work at midnight so thought I would have trouble falling back to sleep so I stuck a movie on and woke up 7 1/2 hrs later making it 11 1/2 hrs sleep!

Sunday morning was spent getting Billy's stuff together as he is off to tassie for a week, then I went to have a cuddle with Max and a play with Miss Jorja - perfect day really!

Day- no idea - on the mend

Bee coz I...tried a zumba class but couldn't even get through the warm up, I have been resting up still.

I did a good walk with Jane on Wednesday and did a solo walk last night ( I almost wrote a solo walk on my own lol)

I have now done 48 hrs with no pain meds as I can tolerate the pain now and I have not taken any ventolin for as long - I'm on the mend!

I am still retaining fluid I can tell by my fingers but the scales are still the same give or take 200 grams. I have been eating well but not moving so I guess I have to just put up with that.

I am looking forward to the weekend not that I have anything planned other than mowing the lawn and trying zumba. I feel like a spa too so I'll add that to the to do list!

Sorry for not blogging much but I have nothing much to say and don't like going on about being ill!

Day 351 - my mojo is coming back

Bee coz I...have been banned from exercise until I am well, I decided Monday was my day to return to 60% exercise, depending on how I feel after work I might attempt zumba tonight, even if I can't do everything I need to do something.

I had a great weekend spending Saturday morning shopping then I went for a small walk. My night was spent at Muckers house watching old Clint Eastwood movies and chilling out with a few ciders.

Today was a busy one, I picked up Jorja and headed to the hill for an award ceremony for a few friends then met up with my besty from work and her family and hit Healsville Sanctuary, it was a very busy day but I got through it and felt good!

Well I'm off to bed to catch up on some zzzzzz's Bee

B: cereal
L: salad sandwich and a few grapes
D: veg, potato chicken and gravy

Day 341(guess) life is funny!

Bee coz I....am still sick I still have not been able to exercise, while I do feel my energy coming back, it's a very slow return.

There is no way I would survive a zumba class, I'm banned from the germy pool until i finish my anti biotics, would need a rest just after driving to boxing so things have ground to a halt!

I'm going to try a Wednesday walk tonight, Jane has been very sick too, I think we started off with the same virus so we will probably have to walk slow and not so far, but it's a start!

My cough is getting better after resting most of yesterday but the pain is still bad in my lungs and I get out of breath easily but you know what, I know I'll get better I just have to give my body time.

So what is funny about life? Lots! But the funniest thing this week so far was watching lil Max with wind. It's my all time favorite thing when newborns do the smile with wind trick, or even funnier the eyes rolling back in the head! Way too funny indeed.

Tuesday:
B:cereal
L:wholemeal sandwich (spinach and ham)
D: spiralina crackers with philli, fruit & yoghurt

Day 343 - Missing In Action

Bee Coz I have been very sick i have been missing in action!

I started to get sick again on Tuesday last week (day after my last blog) by Wednesday i was just managing to work, forget trying to exercise, a walk was all i could muster. I thought it was just a cold but as the week went on i went down hill until i found it hard to talk without getting tired and was having to hold my chest when i went into a coughing fit. On Sunday Tracy and Rod dragged me to the quacks as Tracy needed to go too and i went because i had no energy to argue, result was i had a cold, bronchitis and pleurisy, so was put on 10 days of anti biotics. I hate medicine but even i knew i needed it!

I was told to take a few days off and rest up. On Monday i was laying on the couch like lady muck when  Rod called and said "what are you doing tomorrow" i said "probably going back to work if the drugs kick in" he then told me that it was going to be Billy's an Jorja's baby to be's birthday. (Rod is my son's Billy's dad and Jorja is Billys little sister courtesy of Rod and Tracy, we are still best mates = weired but it works for us).

With that news i jumped off my death bed (aka couch) and got ready to inherit Jorja while they went to have the baby.

The result: Billy (17) and Jorja (2) played in the park waiting for their little brother to be born....Meet Max the new addition to our crazy family.

It was a busy week, with me trying to run around after the cutest 2 yr old girl in the world, trying to get well again and keep up with life. So blogging was last on my to do list.

I went in to work on Thursday as Jorja had childcare but had Fri off. Friday was great, energy was coming back pain in my lungs was gone so Jorja and i had a fun day but i think i did a bit too much as i was tired Sat and my lung pain was back. I handed Jorja back yesterday arvo then went and did all the things that are easier to do minus a 2 yr old, shopping, rest of the house work, then hung out a Connies for the evening until it was time to pick Billy up from work.

I sat in the rain in my car for 50 mins waiting for Billy to finish his first shift at his part time job but i enjoyed every minute of the peace and tranquility.

Then it was off to bed! Bee x x

I have not eaten much, but have not eaten well so i was glad to see there was no chance on the scales (i even checked on my spare set as there has been no change for weeks lol) i am a champion maintainer it appears! With the weather changing to summer i hope thats all about to change, once i'm 100% well i'm going to knock a few more kilo's on the head :)
