I am back in the land of the living..feeling much better.....keeping food down and coffee even tastes like coffee..GOOD...energy level is still lacking but I did manage to go out for a walk done about 5,000 steps...not my 10,000 plus but GOOD since I haven't been out walking for 4 days...done a bit of yard work and some baking...spent some time on computer and now I am quite exhausted ....am so glad to be on the mend....hoping to be able to get out for a bit before it starts raining on Sunday....one of my late lilies opened up today...it is a real beaut...and well worth the wait.....has been a very GOOD day today.....:)

today I can say without a doubt I am all of 50% better than the past couple of days..my doctor phoned with some blood work results that were done on the 19th of August...my white cell blood count was so low it was hardly detectable and because of that I have some serious infection in my body giving me grief...having said that he gave me a strong antibiotic injection...within about 2 hours I was feeling remarkably better...I managed to keep some fruit and toast along with some tea down...and for supper I had a half a beef sandwich and bowl of cream of veggie soup...all which stayed put....in the afternoon my friend and I went out for a drive (I had not been outside for a few days and the air was GOOD)...looks like harvest is under way....I seem to be quite tired but feeling so much better...I even managed to ride around on the lawn mower for a bit...yes!!I believe I feel like living again....guess with my immune system being so bummed I caught some nasty flu bugs and wasn't properly over my pnemonia...next wee while I will be doing more R&R ......but it is GOOD to be able to feel alive again.....:)

Wednesday August 25,2010

this day was a truly BAD day....I have not been this sick in years...aside from just feeling off for the past several days today I had a high fever,nausea,aches and pains in my muscles and joints to the point where I could not hardly move my self about,chills and for nearly 48 hours nothing even water would not stay down....just plain crappy today....I guess the only GOOD thing about Tuesday evening through Thursday morning is that I did not quit breathing altho' at times between coughing and headache not breathing would have been a reprieve...another GOOD thing is that Lyle was home with me the whole time.....:)

today I am just sick and tired of being sick and tired....I have spent the entire day feeling anything but GOOD...not just sure what the problem is but I am phoning my doctor in the a.m. if I am not feeling better...laying on the couch most of day I had the opportunity to watch the hummingbirds..they are sure busy...weather today was better than yesterday we actually had some sun......including photo and snail video..was GOOD for a laugh......

well I am not feeling that great today but I need to clean my fish tank and so I will.. if I run into trouble Lyle will finish when he gets home from work...the weather is kinda not nice quite cold and wet.....our fish tank is 50 plus gallons and we have 2 koi, 1 blue-gilled gorby and 1 big plecostemus....we also have 3 snails of big size...in the tank we have a bubbler that looks like a blow fish..one snail attached itself to this and has bounced up and down the better part of the day...silly snail but was quite amusing tho'...now I am real tired but my tank is cleaned again..so off to bed looking for a GOOD sleep......:)

today is needle day and I am not feeling much better than yesterday...lazy day ..done a bit of this and bit of that...had my needle and went back to bed until about 6:00 p.m. when my daughter and her family arrived...they are on their way back to Yorkton..time for gbabies to get ready to go back to school...apparently they had a GOOD holiday and both are anxious to get back to their friends....had supper with them (thank goodness for take-out) a bit of visit and headed back to bed....Lyle put kitchen back in order...had a GOOD visit and was glad to see all....gma does not look so GOOD here ...these are 2 of my 7 gbabies....so blessed to have healthy gchildren and families.....:)

today has been a total writeoff...I was feeling kinda crappy and I slept most all of the day...flu like symptoms sore achy arms and legs....I can hardly wait for my needle tomorrow (at least then I'll know why I am sick..lol)..weather not the best but not the worst......took a bit of a walk am rather impressed with some of my flowers...the only really GOOD thing about today...it's over with.....:) the nest I took when we were out at the kotima...the silly robin has no better sense than to build in the engine of the Ford tractor (our water hauler)..left her nest till empty and then photoed it and removed it..always a surprise of one kind or other.....
