I know it makes no sense , the three D's in my title but I am determined I will get passed this, just not determined enough YET to not somewhat enjoy the lazy feeling.
Part of me says , "Get up and get going, just do it," and part of me just doesn't care.
May be part of it all is a lingering cold, bronchitis or I don't know what. I guess I should call the doctor but I keep thinking, a few more days. It will work out in time.
I joked with my husband that maybe I have developed an allergy to people outside of my own little home. Perhaps the Spring pollens are not helping. Southern Indiana is a bad place for allergies! I think I'm over this crazy cough until I get out and start coughing at the most embarrassing times or places. I cancelled out on a couple ladies outings, Bible Study & Prayer Connection. I've tried 2 weeks. I had to get up and take a walk to the water cooler both weeks and have a good cough. I tried to hold it back until my eyes started watering and my face grew red for lack of breathing . I wish for no one else to come down with this thing. I'm still getting outside walking my dog . We've been taking our time this week and not going so far, I often walk to the neighborhood park. She likes it there and we can cross over to the field and I take her leash off her and just let her wander awhile. She has been a good girl. It's OK to cough when no one is around to cough on. I cannot seem to get into housework as much as I need to. I can't get to the gym because I don't want to cough there. Two weeks of this is wearing me out but it is getting better than it was. Would a 5 hour energy drink help? Just kidding really or maybe not!
I'm still missing my Dad a lot. It comes in waves. I think just not feeling good isn't helping but May 16 is when I lost him last year. This is the month.
Sorry about your cough, but it is usually the last thing to go when you have a cold, flu, etc. I know you still miss your Dad so much and my heart goes out to you.
ReplyDeleteI hope your cough leaves you soon and you can get back to regular strength.
ReplyDeleteGrief does come in waves! The year anniversary of losing my mom was the worst!
I will pray for you this month.
It will be 10 years in August that my mother passed away, and, needless to say, I still miss her. All my brothers and sisters do.
ReplyDeleteHope you get rid of your cough soon. People say rubbing Vick's Vaporub on your feet and wearing socks to bed at night will help you sleep. I've also heard cutting an onion in half and putting it near your bed will help yu sleep, but what to do during the day?
It is always hard when that anniversary comes around, Cheryl, whether it's one year or 20. You know, though, that he is in Heaven and is watching over you all. Hope you get over your cough soon. Maybe going to the doctor would help. Two weeks is a long time to put up with it. Prayers that you will feel better soon! Hugs!
