And this is the one who does not even have a white belt yet

This is so my new “best thing since slice bread”!!!

Ok, yesterday I tried oil of oregano, pineapple juice, Respiractin, Reactine, as well as my usual medication... I mentioned I felt like crap right??

Here’s what made me feel GREAT...

I am soo in love with this punching bag that I may marry it! I am sooo not kidding! See, for years I’ve been begging my husband to get one, seriously, but the logistics of it always overwhelmed him and so instead I often would do my “punching” moves on his arm, which really sort of annoyed him, so today when I decided to resume my kickboxing class and was introduced to my “precious”, I have to say, It.Totally.Rocked!!!

Ouch!

I am glad I have this blog, because I LOVE you people! Seriously! I am not just saying that, I really, really do! Thank you for your comments and emails! I am still very unwell, and still being rocked by the wanting-to-stab-my-eye-out-pain, but in the grand scheme of things, this is just a minor little bump in life, so, you know… it’s all good!

Anyway, I haven’t gone to kickboxing since Sunday (when I almost totally died, but that’s a story for another time..), and when I was there with my kids on Wednesday for their Tae Kwon Do class, after the owner-guy sang me a song about my sore muscles, he says to me…

Owner-guy: Hey, where is your friend today?

Me: Umm, she’s coming, and she’s my sister

Owner-guy: Really? Wow! You guys look nothing alike! She is so much smaller than you!

Me: Huh. *rolls eyes* yeah… well…. she didn’t give birth to 3 kids!

Is it love thursday already?

So, since I am in a crappy mood, like, everyday, pretty much, I thought I would share with you my new “best thing since slice bread”, which I need to consume everyday, and which I hope is aiding with my struggle against the allergens, and not making it worse, because that would be very sad, and I am not sure that I will recover. Seriously.

I know that you’re dying with anticipation, so… it’s Del Monte’s red grapefruit cuz I loooooove red grapefruit, and the fact that it’s already pre-packaged makes me happy, and I will choose to ignore anything negative about this product!

Ok, as you were!

The clean

So, yesterday was “clean up” day at work, and I must say that the amount of paper that people store in their workstations is truly fascinating to me! Since I had all of one piece of paper to “sort through”, I thought I would take the time to photograph my desk for you, because I know that you’re just sitting there wondering what it looks like!

Behold!

Everyday I try new medication – sadly, nothing has worked thus far, and on Monday when I had to leave work very early, on account of the whole wanting-to-stab-my-eye-out-pain, all I could think was that I didn’t get to have Pad Thai, because some how my stomach convinced my brain that everything would be all better if only I could have some yummy food, in the form of spicy rice noodles of course! Well, yesterday, I braved the bright sunlight, and dangerous roads, went across the street to the express Thai food place with the ridiculously long lines, and got myself some Pad Thai, and I think that my stomach was probably right, cuz I did feel better after!

I haven’t had coffee or tea since Sunday though, because I feel like it may make my mucus situation worse, and my right eye is swollen, but other than that, I feel smashing! Thanks for your kinds words and “feel-better” thoughts!
