Wow! Injection on Saturday (hurt like the dickens) and on Sunday--late afternoon I realized that I really hadn't reacted to the shot! Of course, I am still struggling with the bronchitis/sinus stuff, so maybe just didn't notice anything else!
I was able to accomplish so much on Sunday--got up pretty early Sunday a.m. and truly meant to take a nap--get fortified for the week--but never got around to it--just felt like working. Did some gardening stuff, caught up with clothes washing, actually made supper, and did other things that needed attention. So I was very, very productive. Thought that I'd drop right off to sleep, but this did not happen. I never used to have difficulty following asleep. It's only been since my dx that this has been a problem.
Finally, I fell into a light sleep, only to awaken with coughing. Got up and took cough syrup with codeine and that did the trick! Should have thought of that before I went to bed--may have eliminated some tossing and turning.
Monday now--rained during the night, which we needed. No rain today, just kind of overcast and dismal looking. Nevertheless, it is greening up outside, the weather is warm, and spring is definitely here! I love it! It is absolutley amazing how much nice weather and the sun motivate me physically. I recall marvelling at this last year at this time as well. Apparently, I am one who needs certain weather conditions to operate at my best.
Only 19 days left of school (not counting weekends) according to my student. Once again, I feel panicky about what I won't have time to cover but also look forward to not having the responsibility. Teaching for nine months is like two to three years of work all smushed together. I really don't know how some can just put in a 40 hour week as my days are generally 10-12 hours long at the school plus work often at home that evening. Not to mention the weekends. I don't know how I coached on top of all of that! Thank goodness I don't have that to do as well. I can barely keep up as it is.
I didn't get a chance to get to this site yesterday--missed it very much! I so love the support and information.
Hope for a good night's sleep!
