Health- same old roller-coaster
Not much going on in my world... sleeping most of the time does not really bode well for a blog that is supposed to follow my daily activities unless you are all really into dream interpretation in which case I have some real doozies to share!
The hurricane damage (from Irene) has finally been patched up (nothing like waiting until the last minute) and the jungle that is the yard has been cut. Not that I did any of this, but am just glad it is finally done.
My entry in the FaceBook Reader's Digest contest has slipped to 8th place today, which is a little disheartening but I know that I have friends voting daily and I am really surprised that I am still in the top 10 in the rankings but without about 7000 votes there is little chance of winning the whole thing although staying in the top 6 would increase my chances dramatically that it would be published.
I am really hoping that it is published, even if I do not get a dime, because the whole reason behind it is to raise awareness of Gastroparesis and other Digestive Tract Paralysis conditions and getting the story published in Reader's Digest would go a long way to making Gastroparesis a household word and with that would come a push for better treatment for all those who suffer.
Health-wise it is pretty rough here... that gallon of green tea that I have been sipping on since Saturday is still not empty so I do not have my average daily fluid intake calculated for this week yet but is laying bets that it will not be nearly enough. I have stopped counting daily ounces and have decided to instead count weekly totals then average it out over the week so I can have a better idea of where I really stand.
Between the muscle tremors (which keep me checking the earthquake notification site to see if there has been more activity), weakness, pain and gut-busting bloating I am wore to the core lately and just cannot climb out of this hole I have fallen into.
(BTW- what does it mean when you dream that you are a cat watching a mouse hole?)
