An interesting note - I have been getting headaches, even on pain meds! Dr. told me to take iron supplements every day because of blood loss during surgery (normal) - I use an isotonic multi-vitamin with iron and within about 20 minutes of taking it, my headache goes away. Did a little reading, and it turns out that Iron helps your blood carry oxygen to the brain!! Who knew? But I digress...
The sun is shining and it's supposed to warm up to 38 degrees today, so I'm hoping that when it peaks I will have enough energy to go for a walk around the block, he-he-he. DH is back at work after taking such good care of me, working from home last week, but he's already called to check on me this morning. What a sweetie!!
DD moved back in on Saturday, which will make including her in our BK easier. It's such a difficult job market for her and many others right now. She has put out tons of applications/resumes and been on several interviews. It seems for every interview they are actually interviewing anywhere from 20 to 30 people for a minimum wage job - and only offering 8-10 hours a week!!! Crazy. We feel blessed to have her back home, and her teeny-tiny little puppy - 3.4 pounds fully grown with the big name Mo-Jo-Bojangles lol. My middle-aged dog, Trixie, loves playing with him, and he really perks her up and causes her to be more active.
DD and I are hoping I will feel strong enough to go for a drive this week - it's supposed to be mid forties by Thursday. Maybe drive to one of the islands and look around. I've been sick since we moved here in October, so I really haven't done any exploring at all. It's hard to believe that we've been here three months and I haven't done any of those things that make it feel like my home! Maybe in a few weeks I can start looking for some volunteer work too, back in CA I was so plugged into my community, with 3 or 4 service jobs I was routinely involved in - it's weird that I've just been sitting here on my duff, so self-involved, not participating in life!
Okay, I'm just rambling now, sorry! I am feeling so surrounded by grace I can't even express it.
