Cough, cough, cough…

I finished my antibiotic course yesterday and have raised the humidity in my house to 55%. I am doing everything I can to cure my chest cold. I am drinking hot organic tea with apple cider vinegar (ACV). I’ve heard about the amazing healing properties and have been witness to a lot of them, but this time around this is lingering for way too long. I am using an inhaler to try to breathe better, but earlier yesterday I was struggling so much with my breathing, which turned out to be a full-blown panic attack. I think I was just freaking out that my symptoms were more apparent yesterday.

I just need sleep. It’s just so hard to sleep when your coughing with every breath you take. On the couch I go again.

Let’s just hope tomorrow morning will be a healing day.

Happy 2012

Out with the old and in with the new, right? I wish sometimes.

On a good note, my boys are doing awesome! They had a fabulous Christmas and enjoyed playing with all their new stuff and with all of their cousins.

My husband made Christmas cookies. Yes, he loves to bake – lucky me!

As for me, I’m still getting over my chest cold – took my last dose of antibiotics this morning. Here’s to hoping this yuckiness clears up. I took a 4 day vacation from my Gilenya (MS pill) because I needed to fight off this infection, but now I have really blurry vision and a noticeable limp again on my left leg. Thus, back on the Gilenya now.

And I decided to overdo it today, in typical OCD “A”-personality form. I undecorated – took the Christmas decorations down, broke down the tree, packed everything away under my crawlspace, and even vacuumed. Now I am paying for it which is probably the reason for the vision and walking issue today. I don’t like being limited in what I can do, but I just have to learn to slow down or stop sometimes.

I should just play more on my new iPad2 – Thanks Bubby! (Forgive the just got out of bed on Christmas morning look I am sporting here)
