Sometimes life just makes you laugh
This morning I changed my pill schedule around a little bit (as directed by my nurse) so that I could have some meds in my system before I tried getting out of bed. Considering the getting out of bed routine was causing me mucho pain, I gave the new regimen a try. Thankfully, I was up and ready to go sooner than in days past. I got to walk around a bit, pet Macie, and check to see if all the snow had melted. In the time it took me to make a few rounds around the Kasten abode, I got ridiculously nauseous. I won't gross you out with details, but let's just say taking those two medicines so close together on an empty stomach was a bad idea. Dad went to go get some lunch, and I thought I'd be hungry for it by the time he got back. Negative. I ate a few bites and watched some TV with the 'rents. Once again I started walking around the house to get my mind off of my stomach. Before I knew it, it was a little after 3:00. Nathaniel stopped by since our plans had changed last night. I was just glad that his mom was doing better, so I felt honored that he would drop in. We got to talking with Mom and Dad for a little bit, then realized it was almost dinner time and neither of us had eaten much. Since he had never tried Wibs, I took him to try some of Jackson's finest bbq. After dinner we went back to Casa Kasten and vegged out for a little bit. We ended up watching The Notebook since it was on TV. Talk about tear jerker...I didn't end up crying but by golly I felt like I should, haha. It's such a great movie! I actually sat on the couch criss cross applesauce for the whole movie! Look at me go, haha. I used to be so afraid to sit on the couch since it took so much effort getting back up, but things are getting easier day by day. After the movie was over he headed out to spend some time with the boys and I talked with Little Lynne Dawg for a bit on the phone. Now I'm getting ready to head off to bed. Last Sunday I couldn't go to church because of the pain. I'm doing everything I can to make sure tomorrow is different. You hear that pain? Try and keep me from doing what I want. Before long you'll be gone and I'll be back to normal. :) That's right. Although a few things today made me sad (mostly because of stupid people taking advantage of others who don't deserve the hurt), I had a rather fantastic day. Don't you just love those? I'll try to bask in my current state of happiness and head off to dreamland. See you tomorrow! :D
