Back to work

If you don't read Mizfit, what is wrong with you? you should. She's now selling these awesome skirts.

Go check them out here. I totally want one.

I'm exhausted from work. It kept me really busy today and I hardly ate anything. Not good for me at all. I'm assuming I'll be back at the gym by Saturday when my face returns to normal.

This is what I looked like yesterday. I love Angioedema so much. Just picture it today but the opposite side. My nose doesn't look like that today. Sorry I look a mess, but I hadn't even showered when I took this picture. I was documenting it for my doctor. I'm going for blood work next week. This is the worst it's been since February.I was feeling better enough today to make it to work. My eyes were still pretty swollen, but I was getting depressed sitting at home and not having any human contact, so I had to go in today. By the end of the day my right eye was almost completely open and my left eye was about 3/4 of the way. You can see why people might stare. I look like someone punched me in the face. But, no.

It's just a number

False alarm. I'm home again today. I woke up with my eye swollen shut and both feet swollen. I tell you this disease is a bitch. I was suppose to get some blood work done awhile back, but since I haven't had any flare ups, I put it off. Guess what I'm going to get done next week?

Sitting home for two days without any human contact is depressing. We have no food in the house since I usually go grocery shopping on Monday nights, but didn't go this week because of my Angiodema. I had some frozen meals that I had made and put away in the freezer, but I'm pretty much out of those. The hubby picked me up a few things last night but tonight he's going to have to back to the store since I won't go into public like this.

And I sit here and think about all the work that is piling up on my desk. I was doing so well, too. I was about a day behind and so caught up. UGH!! Looks like I'll be going in on Saturday for a little make up time.

I miss working out. It's been a couple days. I'm up a couple of pounds, which is to be expected. I hate that scale. I really need to get rid of it for awhile and just go with out how my clothes fit. The scale does not rule my life.

I love this and I'm very tempted to do the same thing to my scale.

Hopefully I'll be able to hit the gym before work tomorrow. It's getting a little too cold for me to workout in the garage. Yes, I'm a wimp like that and don't like the cold at all. I've been sleeping in a sweatshirt at night. I miss the summer already. 

Do you have a scale? Do you weigh yourself often?

What is the weather like where you are?

welcome back angiodema

I woke up this morning with one of my eyes almost swollen shut and the other one on it's way. I so HATE angiodema. It's my fault of course. I was holding off on getting my medication refilled because it costs a lot of money this time of year with the deductible and all. But I had to fill it today. Luckily now I'm feeling and looking better.

I also still haven't had my blood work done for my allergist and I really need to get that done. I'm bad I know. I should have had it done months ago. And I know it's going to cost big bucks. We have the whole deductible thing. I'm going to call my insurance on Monday and see if I can find out how much it's going to cost because it's impossible to find out the cost on their website. I wish I could just plug in the codes and find out. I work in the medical field and I'm frustrated enough with healthcare.

Needless to say there was no gym tonight. I'm too tired and too swollen to make it there. But I worked out 2 times this week which is pretty good for me. I am hoping to make it 3 next week and then 4 the week after. Nice and easy, slipping back in.

Work was so busy! I know I say that all the time. It's just so hectic these days. Today I wasn't happy with my job. I'm a bit worried about having Monday off, wondering what is going to happen without me actually being there. Wondering if I might have voice mails even though I'm not there. Even though I changed my message to say I was out of the office. And yes, the receptionists ARE that clueless. I hate feeling like I can't take time off. I'd hate to what might happen if I get sick.

I am looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow though. I am not setting an alarm and I don't care if I sleep until noon.
