Poor Andy (the husband) has been super sweet to me and keeping me company while I stay tuned up- however late Monday night after I had taken a hard dose of sleeping pills, Andy awoke in the hospital with an awful stomach flu. I stumbled into something a little bit less than consciousness around 4am to discover his cot empty and started looking under my bed and out the door for him. Finally, the nurse came in and with a quizical look and exclaimed to my not so coherent mind, "As you've probably realized your husband left- he was really sick, but he just kept smiling. What a great guy." At this point my mind wandered into some other realm- I laid back down, sent a text to him that looked something like "lkdjove yuoud dkkdo ok?>D?D" and lolled off into lala land for another 3 hours. When I finally did make it out of my sleep coma, I was sure I had fixed the tax problem, cured CF and bought a pony; unfortunately those all just seemed to be hallucinations from the sleeping pills. Andy, however, spent all of Tuesday wrapped in bed with saltines and his computer. So Tuesday was quite the treat for us, me in the hospital him in the sick bed at home. I know that he is truly sick because #1 he called in sick from work and #2 he stayed home ALL day and only did ONE load of laundry! For those of you that don't know he's a workaholic cleanaholic and I provide the balance! :) So appreciate any prayers from you prayers out there for speedy health for us two!
My newest favorite thing about my iphone is the the group messaging. I have two bff's who live too far apart from me and we started this group message about a month ago that just keeps going. It's great I no longer have to text them both the same thing (that always made me feel like I was cheating them or they were cheating me somehow. In college, Arieanna and I would both hear our phone buzz in class, I'd look down and there would be a message from Gay Gay saying "I love you, you're great" and then I'd look at Arie's phone and it would be the same message and I would just feel this, "Dang" inside of me like I wasn't special.) That story aside, with group messaging I no longer have that not special feeling and since we live so far away from each other I feel like we get to have conversations again! I can be a bystander while they talk about something and then chime in if I need to. Moral of this is that I'm now trying to encourage them to be fellow bloggers with me and maybe someday, just maybe, It'll get big :)
And for the last words of the day- I'm exercising! Whoop! I ran six flights of stairs yesterday, huffed the last 3 till I wanted to die and made it back to my room safely with a heartrate of 180. :) They've brought an exercise bike into my room and I managed a full 20 minutes of my very busy day on that. Gonna keep this up- Don't want to be a sick CF kid :) I'm leaving you with this sweet photo of myself... the prednisone has kicked in and the puffy cheeks are back. Chubby Bunny.

ReplyDeleteThe best part was the fact that not many people will understand the fact that when you say our phones buzzed in class that you mean we took every class together.... Good days... But I want a pic with out you filling your cheeks with air to I can see the real damage being done.... Lovies. Laterz.
