Bring me some beef flavoured Hulla Hoops now please :-)
I want to feel like this:
Unfortunately I feel like this:
Well they say that with time you forget extreme pain for example during childbirth. The same thing happens with feeling nauseous. I thought it would be fine, I’d get in all the foods that help with the nausea and batten down the hatches until that part of the protocol was over. Oh how very wrong I was. I sat on the sofa all day one day unable to move, eating beef flavoured Hulla Hoops for breakfast, lunch and dinner. My Mum offering to bring around some chicken liver pate was not well received even if it was bloody home made! Blugh!
It’s ok though as I only have two more cycles of this…or so they say. I think I’m doing better than expected as I’ve not had to back off on this protocol so I’m taking that as a positive. On my weeks off I have managed to do a few things. I went to the village fete where there were floats big…
and small…
This time I didn’t have any ‘incidents’ and wasn’t going anywhere near a hospital!
It was very hard mentally as this time last year I was able to follow the carnival all the way down to the next village and walk around the village green looking at the stalls. Oh dear this does sound a bit Mid Summer Murder’ish – maybe that was a lucky escape!
I don’t think I’ll be entering my produce into the village competition:
Anyway I currently have a really bad headache which nothing can settle. I wouldn’t complain but its been ten days now. It’s not a good look walking around with a hot water bottle attached to my head and a ice pack around my neck – not to mention a tad inconvenient 🙂
It’s the downwards pressure of the string that makes me look like I have loads of wrinkles. Doesn’t it? Am I kidding myself? Someone get me a mirror now!
