Just one of those days

12/15/06

Did you ever just have one of those days when you just don't feel good? I seem to be having one of them today. I woke up this morning feeling sick, as I often do. I was intending to wake up to watch Regis and Kelly, but just couldn't muster the energy. I finally woke up about 11 o'clock, and I just can't shake the horrible nausea that seems to have come over me. Usually it only bothers me in the morning, but it's almost 4 right now. I've also found that if I don't eat in the morning, I can forget about feeling good for the rest of the day. But, what do you do when you know that eating will more than likely make things better, but you have no desire or appetite for food? I also have to eat food with the meds I take in the morning and at night, and my stomach is very specific on what I should eat. I take meds for my stomach to counteract the effects of my oxycontin, and it seems like it won't work if I don't eat a peanut-butter sandwich (not toast) and hot chocolate with milk instead of water. Trust me, I've tried so many different combinations, and this is the only one that works. This was especially aggravating this morning because we don't have any milk, and just the smell of something sweet (like hot chocolate) made my nausea worse. Anyway, as I have earlier stated, it's almost 4 o'clock right now. My house looks like a bomb has hit it, and I look like I couldn't escape the blast. My husband gets home in a little over an hour, and I can't help feeling like a failure as a wife. He works so hard all day, and I don't even have the energy to clean up the house. And you can forget about being able to tend to his other needs. I used to be able to see the light at the end of this long tunnel, but it would appear that it was only a candle that someone has blown out. But, who knows? Tomorrow I may feel completely different. Honestly, you guys must think I'm such a whiner. The truth is, if I didn't have this blog, I would be holding it all inside. I've experienced how destructive that can be. Anyway, thank you all so much for rejoicing with me when I'm feeling good, and comforitng me when I'm not. You ladies are a truly unique bunch. Well, I need to go take care of my lip. I didn't realize I was chewing it, and I just noticed that it's bleeding pretty bad. I'll talk to you all later.

God Bless! Hannah
