What a week it has been, I feel like I'm constantly in motion, moving so fast, getting lots done, but this girl needs a break! Lots has been happening and I've got to remind myself that feeling better doesn't mean run the marathon, sometimes you need to tell yourself to walk too.
I spent a few days in the Miramichi with my grandparents, helping around the house etc. Don't forget to visit your grandparents, enjoy their stories and their wisdom, you will miss them when they are gone, life doesn't always give you second chances.
I have officially stopped taking Prednisone, so my body is adjusting accordingly. Had a rough 'Crohnsy' day yesterday, sore bones, joints etc, but the taper has gone better than I expected. If I can just get this hunger monster tame, I feel we might just be in the clear. In a weird way, I am a little sad that chapter is coming to an end, partially because being on a low dose can make you feel incredibly 'normal' and have normal bowels, but also because it has been a tremendous growing experience. With Crohn's though, I know there will be many many more lessons to learn, and many more obstacles to face, so be not afraid, the blog will continue.
There has been some great things going on; going back to my government job for the month of May, which will be incredible to catch up with some wonderful ladies, travel around Nova Scotia and bank a little cash money. It will certainly be busy, but usually I thrive in those situations, where I'm always moving, yet at some point I know I'll inevitably crash and burn. Perhaps I can put Russell to work at the apartment so I have a little less to do/worry about when I get home at night. I wish!
The devil car has thus continued to give us trouble, so I have to take it in to Canadian Tire only to get jipped off as usual I'm sure. Not looking forward to having the headache of that.. just want a good car to truck me around!!!
Perhaps I will leave it here, as I've been dragging you on for X9 paragraphs in so many recent posts, though I should menchen my 'picture of the day.' I've had a Canon Rebel for the past few years and have not given it the justice it deserves, so on a beautiful spring day today, I'm making a commitment to start anew with an old hobby. Perhaps this will make me stop and 'smell the roses' more often, and capture a few more moments in motion.
Hope you are all enjoying the sunshine. xoxo e
