Sometimes it is nice just to get random thoughts and ideas out of your head to a solid piece of "paper."
Every once in a while, some uninterrupted me time is in order- I do whatever I want, take my time, eat what I want and sleep when I want, primp as long as I like, zone out when needed, be super productive and on task and really accomplish something.... and no pressure! No limits to this day! So refreshing!
Recent issue: Problematic hives that keep popping up everyday- reappear when benedryl is not in my system. It has been going on for about a week and is very scary/ annoying/ frustrating! I have been to the hospital's care center, the regular doctor, had to leave work today and have another appointment next week then possibly one with an allergist. Unfortunately i need to consider canceling my weekend trip due to the fact of distance to a hospital in case needed. I have an epi pen for the first time as well- I would rather be safe than sorry but it is a little un-nerving! symptoms include hives on joint areas and areas with extra heat (neck/shoulders, shoulder blades, wrists, inside of elbows, back of thighs- when it is worse it is all over arms/ legs/ etc. I drank 2 different kinds of tea out of my normal routine (Joint comfort and Caramel bedtime tea) the night before the symptoms started happening. I'm thinking it is something that is reacting with my body and is trying to get out. I drank 10 cups of water the other day at work and that seemed to help but symptoms still have not cleared up and it seems a mystery at this point. No change of laundry detergent or soaps/ lotions@!
Snow storm today... slippery roads in the morning and got worse in the afternoon...still snowing now. Definitely a winter wonderland outside, very pretty at least!
I have been fortunate and started spending time with someone who is pretty great. We collaborate well together in the kitchen and have made some super amazing dishes I would consider in the category of 'fine dining'...seriously! Enjoying my free time and company.
As far as work goes, I am still working at the same center with young kids, influencing and hopefully expanding their young minds. Routine is huge and it is something I am adapting a little better to, although I would rather shake up the routine and do something different some of the time!
My brother graduated Ithaca College this winter, a great accomplishment!
I forgot how good Quaker Peaches and Creme Oatmeal was until i decided to have some for dessert...
