Day Four....maybe some light....

Last night Dayna and I went to the movies. Movie popcorn is not something I enjoy. I have only ordered it a couple of times in my life....I am a candy girl. I was able to close my eyes and focus on just getting in the theatre. Dayna was very respectful and did not have anything to eat. I did have him stop in and get me a cup of hot water so I could sip on some herbal tea. That herbal tea has been such a God send. It is my new 31 flavors!!!

This morning was okay...still had the headache. I was able to get a few things done work wise. About half as productive as I would have like to have been. That's okay....my focus is on getting healthy. I will be able to function much better in a few days I am sure.

I hit a wall at about 2:30 - bad headache again...so I took a nap for a couple of hours. When I woke up I was really struggling. I just wanted something. I was even craving a can of green beans......wow! I was able to talk with Dayna and let him know I didn't think I could do this. I wasn't even sure why I was doing this. My health issues, lack of energy and shorten life span didn't seem very important this afternoon.

With Dayna's encouragement I was able to push through it and by about 8:00 my headache started to go away. It is still there, but at least I can distract myself from it a bit to relax.

Just in time....my first workout is tomorrow morning at 5:00 am...I am a little nervous and scared. When I was getting closer to giving birth to Ellie I rationalized that I could handle the pain as long as it didn't hurt as bad as getting my leg cut off by a chain saw (worst pain I could think of). When I mentioned that to Josh he assured me that it would not hurt that bad...so I think I will survive!!
