Welcome April!

Yesterday was cool here, like Sunday.

Enjoy hygge days in the cold, blankets, books, movies...but this is harder I have decided when it is sunny out and looks like spring.

So,vi was a little restless yesterday and Sunday.   At least I did have good 6 Mike walk Sunday and good yoga session Monday night

Today I am relaxing this morning for a change, have had early commitments 2 weeks,  it seems.  Yesterday had early am doctor appointment.

Went to 2nd new doctor, I think I am going to like her.  She discussed options more, listened.  The 1st new dr i tried since moving here didn't listen as much, just changed my medicine and caused me a lot if adjusting the last 2 months.   Nothing terrible, but I have really struggled with sleep, body aches and weight gain last 2 months.  So I am weaning off new med he put me on...I already weaned off med he suggested, so I am literally taking 2 less and went to keep it that way after all this!

Prescriptions may seem to make life easier, but different doctors have different feelings, motivations, etc.  This phase has been a bummer.  Oh, well.  I am ready for spring!  Lighter by couple meds and ready to get few pounds lighter!

Have a wonderful Tuesday!

Restless Much?

Last night I had some coffee with friends, then stopped by store and bought 2 window fans to have running to dissipate any possible radon.  It was nice sleeping with a fan, so no matter what is not a complete waste of money.  I lay there after my dinner of tuna and avocado and pickle...felt restless...thought I cant sleep...then I was out!  Even got cool as morning came.   I shut the windows though to about 2 inches, because I don't want rain to come in if it rains while I am at work all day.  At least I remembered to shut the blinds today - it was not too hot when I got home last night 5:20, because the sun had moved around side of house a bit, but I bet it was pretty warm around 3 or so.  This is our view, it looks southwest. 
DH coming home today, so that is good.  Missed him when he is gone.  Then I turn around and head out with my aunt for my niece's wedding and my friend's mom's memorial en route to the wedding.  By then, the inspection will be finished and the radon test ends on Monday 3:30pm.  I told my husband I am fairly certain this will all go through without a hitch...but that little thread of possibility might be leading to this restless feeling...along with my stomach being so upset.  I just finished my 3rd course of steroid that makes me feel like a million bucks...all until the day I stop...but I didn't remember it being this drastic...so part of my discontent lies in my realization that I must do a very strict elimination diet again and it is overwhelming.  The last time I did it, I lost 16 pounds in 2 weeks...so, it is a bit intimidating.  It is all about preparation...literally, and psychologically.  But, I feel so bad this week that I think I should be ready soon, maybe next week if I can get DH to shop for me while I am gone.  I won't get home Sunday till 9pm or so, so that is not a good way to get started (proper rest is huge).  Then again, even more reason to kick into low gear.

Thirsty Thursday

This is from yesterday ..I feel restless today.  Not sure why.  Maybe because I am in limbo on a few things and my ability to control stuff is compromised.  I am still making progress toward the goal post, but I need to be grateful in the moment.  Not just put it out there for a few days around Thanksgiving and then move on full speed to unbridled Christmas.  Although, now that I am really not into Christmas, so that might give reason for my malaise. 

I am back on overtime, but just for a couple of weeks.  Yet, it intrudes into my housekeeping and workout and that affects my anxiety a little.  I have a couple of other projects I have to abandon too, so there is the shuffling and my DG does not get the attention she deserves.  I will just try to focus on the positives, remember it is temporary and think of the extra cash!  I will just have to do a little more after work in the evenings and try to focus my workouts on Sun/Mon night yoga.  When I was working OT this summer, it wasn't so bad because it does not get dark until 9-9:30.  Now that it gets dark at 5:30, I am ready to go home and crawl into bed. 

I haven't sold anything despite listing a lot more since Sunday.  But the real progress is that I have found several more things to list.  It really is like a floodgate, once you tap into that feeling, stuff just becomes so easy to let go of.  Crazy!
