Feeling a bit better today, thanks all.
Was at work and had a 4.5hr class following a 3.15hr one...long day.....I flung chocolate Easter eggs at anyone who could give me a correct answer today. I got a kick out of seeing them fight to answer questions for once! (doesn't take much to make me laugh!)
I was having a bit of a pity party the last 2 days...I am very competitive and am having a hard time dealing with not being able to climb stairs as exercise (it replaced running...now what am I going to replace that with?)...
Yoga? Nowhere near where I live. The only sports around here are martial arts, combat trainning or running for the bus. No gyms but lots of hills & stairs.
Jeffsmom, I am on Lyrica. Not sure if it helping or not...the day I forgot to take it and the anti-inflamatory I hurt like the dickens but it may not be related. I do some yoga at home using the big ball, a smaller one and deep breathing with stretches. It helps but I've stopped for 3 months since surgery. Trying to get back into it but every movement brings so much pain the next day.
TE, rant away...we all need it and as time goes by we have more reasons to be miserable.
Yes, those idiots who all know more or better than us deserve a cream pie in the face.
(I am somewhat non-violent but I like the imagery)
Today I had one of my ex-favorite students stop by for a few minutes. He is 28 and an ex-soccer star... back to school for his MBA. He never needed to kick the soccer ball, just smiled at it and it rolled into the goal out of sheer joy!
Goodness gracious...who needs HRT when he is around? I was having hot flashes and it was 8 degrees out! If only I was 35yrs younger!
I tried to get my Gyn to talk about HRT but she blew me off. She's retiring and couldn't be bothered.
I need a new Gyn, GP and dermatologist...running out of competent doctors...Still dreaming of moving but can't find the strength to list this place and start packing...just has me in tears of exhaustion at the thought of it.
Got to do it soon or I will never get it done.
I am hoping to get a script for a thalasso therapy week...a medical week of hot water baths, massages, treatments etc to get my body into better conditon...I have never done it but know that it has helped a lot of people...and yes, detoxing from sugar and caffine could not hurt me. Maybe once I finish work.
I plan on watching a lot of tv this weekend...
Going to bed early tonight, another long day tomorrow. I start a new school with new students...I am a glutton for punishment.
Night-night all.
Thanks for all of your support.
