Well because I'm rarely ill I thought I just had a simple cold so I continued like I usually do always on the go, there's always something to be done If not I find something, been on this diet for 8 months, haven't had a vacation in 2 years , work a lot of overtime,had job burnout & just generally always on the move.. That simple cold turned in to Pneumonia, then really BAADD headaches, after getting out of the hospital I went back 3 days later because the headaches.. was to me unsurmountable and fever was back soo they tested me for spinal mennigitis, That was no walk in the park THANK GOD it was neg.. End result..pneumonia combined with> total exhaustion, dieting, not resting enough, and side effect of meds, The doctor changed out meds, I no longer need breathing treatment,and he gave a steriod shot, fever is gone and hasn't came back, I'm working as of yesterday for 4 hours( I tried that last week But I couldn't take the plaster dust in the air and the acrylic grindings even with a mask on so I went home after 2 hours) I'm going to work 4 hours next week and proceed from there(ran out of sick time I HAVE to work now). I'm feeling SOO much better tho I still feel tired and my back has a dull ache in it (Probably from laying down and resting for once ) No really it's from coughing so much BUT it's a productive cough and that a good thing .
Thank You ALL SOOOO Much for your postive thoughts and prayers I really means a lot to know you all care
See ya around in here By the way My paperwhites are up and blooming, moonflower seeds have grown to multiple leaves and hyiancth bean vine seed are around 6" up now(they're inside for now) and my DH turned my newest compost pile for me Check HIM out!!!!. Now I have learned to sit down somewhere and rest when my body tells me to and stop ignoring my need for rest.

So nice to see you back!! I really wish you didn't need to work so hard. I'm not going to tell you to slow down because it sounds like you know that and I bet you hear it all the time!
So happy to hear about your flowers. What a nice gift to come home too and sounds like you have a great husband to help you out.

LOL! That's funny. That's when I noticed you weren't around...I hadn't seen you in the game room. I guess you need to pick up the slack... See..everyone has their place here.

Diane. I am glad to hear you're doing better, I know exactly what you're going thru... I was down with it, just before Christmas.. Had this cold, what I thought, that just wouldn't go away... mine was only walking pneumonia, but still, and to make matters' worse, just before Christmas, didn't get much accomplished around here, it was a pretty "down" Christmas.. But I just couldn't do much.. (then after Christmas, I came down with the Chicken Pox)
I am glad to see you are learning to slow down, You must take it easy and rest up... Somethings have to get done and others... DON'T!!! So, rest up in that ole comfy recliner, get your slippers on when you can and be good to yourself...

Thanks all. .. I'm going to work tomarrow a friend of mine told me when I wear a surgical mask to moisten it and it will prevent the dust particles from going thru better, sooo I'll give it a shot , working only 4 hours a day this week But Weezie I DO have my slippers on now . think they'll let me work in them?? NOO probably not . but DH won't even let me cook ( sometimes there is a benefit of beening sick!!) I'm beginning to feel restless tho' but I KNOW to chill out now!! Doctor said to expect to feel tired still and to NOT allow myself to control mind over matter, just let it be what it is.. Tired and act upon that only..( Geeeezzh!). I've had this Doctor for a few years now and obviously he knows me PReeeetty good! Well I gotta go see how the Steelers are doing!! Only because the football pot I got on favors Steelers and my numbers are 7 and 3 pays forwards and backwards .. I hit on second quarter $$$$$$$!!!! Oh YEA!!!

Hey, you could try it.. they might!
Mine's not a big cook and but he did bring us home stuff, pizza, or McDonalds, or fingers, I was down many nights.. *same for the POX... I felt real bad for him, he was very good about it though...*
So, don't over do it at work and be good to yourself...
