Holiday Madness
Happy Holidays everyone!! I hope that whatever holiday you celebrate turned out to be full of small joys, large smiles and reasons to look towards a positive future.
I am not dead. I have not, however, responded to any emails in nearly a week nor posted anything here because holy moly...
I recovered from having pneumonia, sinusitis and dual ear infections though it was touch and go there for a bit including a bad reaction to medication and many days of complete inability to retain thoughts beyond "do I dare to take more than fifteen steps today?" and "where the bloody fuck did I put that codeine cough syrup THIS TIME?"
Yesterday was wonderful but full of the standard chaos the holidays bring, including multiple drives of 45+ minutes, beginning at 6am (ugh!) to visit family on either ends of where we live. Still, it was glorious and when it was done, I collapsed and slept for 12+ hours.
Finally gathering my wits today, which begins with gathering my house - which is, because I am the mom and wife, completely unapologetically trashed all to hell. When I manage to wade out of the pit it has become, I can return to beta work, non-profit work and having a life.
Today is good. Tomorrow will be awesome. :)
