CRUD, Sweat, n BeDeviled ....

This is me....usually, smiling, happy---inside n out.
I have NOT seen her in over a month now!
The  CRUD  has been stickin all over me for that long. This is my 4th bout w/it. I'm Done. Ain't got time for this!
Got smart....visited my Doc Tues. Yep. Crud may even include a "small" pneumonia spot. Loaded me up w/drugs and sent me on my miserable way!
One of the "bad" meds that always gets me well...Prednisone. UGH> if ya know it, ya gotta HATE it.
Doses are "graduated" frm 6 down to 1 @ end.
Took the 1st six......up/down  ALL night feeling like this:
Yep. Nasty med also gives ya a bad case of body sweats!
Ofcourse, IF I had realized water was needed w/it, things might have gone some better. Called & Doc advised to only take 1/2 dose @ time and ...wait for it....DRINK lots of water. So, today has been a bit better....still sweats, but move along faster. GEEZ!!!!!!
Ofcourse...ya KNOW who this is....TAZ, the terrible!!  Well, that qualifies as a description of my present personality!!!!! Thank you Prednisone for your "adjust" to my normal sweet nature.(STOP laughing...lol)
Have put out WARNINGS to those poor men close to me. They just thought PMS was "sick" !! Now they are facing an even worse "bedeviled" me!! 
This is much, much worse. It doesn't seem to have ANY control button!! The sad part is......I DON'T even like me. haha
The HAPPY NEWS, there really is some.....I'm feeling soooo much stronger, and overall, much better healthwise. 
Praying we can all make it thru until these meds are finished!! and without any bloodshed.!!!!!!!!!

They were All on my mind & in my heart, tho.} 2 even mailed gifts!! TY to Betty & Charlene. Pam's deco was to the moon!

LIFE Lessons .....Learning Again !!

Image
This blog is a confession and statement of "new" learning for me. The "darkness" of an "acute" illness, and the healing from that, has been a reality check in full measure! I'm a Believer. I'm one who praises God, prays all the time, and am confident of the Love of my Father. That statement made -- I am still filled w/human nature and it's quircks! We all get "comfortable" in our everyday lives and routines. Well. Mine has been blown apart w/this "healing" process.!! It's going much more slowly than I would desire, and so much seems more difficult, and "lost" a bit. There are books written, quotes out there, and we all kinda believe --don't sweat the "small" stuff. Pfffft! It's the "small" stuff that's giving me such tough issues right now. Go figure! Examples: energy to "move" and do my everyday routines; insecurity/discomfort w/the thought of driving a car (not

the "REST OF THE STORY"......

I did soooo Love Paul Harvey. His stories were always so interesting.....and, he researched to bring a story to an often unknown ending. The "rest of the story" always let ya know.....the circle was closed on that topic for him. In that fashion....I wanted to do this blog. I love photography. I'm quite a happy amateur! Now, with Pinterest I get to see unlimited talent. This picture was one that "drew me in"....After I pinned it.....there were like 30+ other people who loved it too! This picture received the most pins on my boards. Just look at it....Never did try to track down the photographer. Only went as far as where the pin originated. Browsing pinterest boards is a fun pastime. I enjoy "following" pictures/quotes and such as far as I dare. In browsing.....I "fell into" a site. The photographer is TIMOTHY WALKER. A very eclectic range of photos. Behold! There was this picture among them. I gasped! (He has several other photos
