Steroids are wonderful

I laid in bed this morning and visited with my husband.  I could lay in bed and take a deep breath.  I could lay in bed and open, albeit not all the way, my left eye and see something other than eyelashes.
Now's when I need to chain myself.  The kids had come over for family game night last evening and to watch the Brewer game.  I have dirty dishes and baby toys to pick up and did notice as I was starting in the living room that I was huffing and puffing like a locomotive. 
Yes, I know dear friends, slow and steady wins the race.  I was thinking I should take the baby visiting when I sit this afternoon, but we will stay in the confines of my little world.  Maybe we'll sit in the leaves and get some pictures with pumpkins.  I have him from 12:30 to 4:30.
My Son-in-law dropped the bomb that he is considering joining the military as he would like a job in the medical field.  They thought I would be totally anti-military, but these are tough times for young folks and we cannot be counted on to help them out forever.  Time will tell.  He is just talking with a recruiter now.
