Why am I still sick?!

Okay, this isn't funny anymore. Okay, okay, I will admit that maybe I've been pushing myself a bit too far...not eating right, not drinking enough water, not enough sleep, too much stress...but still, what right does that give you to attract every illness out there right now? Flu? Check. Cold? Check, check. Bronchitis? Check. Enough already!!!!

It feels so good to be home. Today I got a lot more help, without complaints, from Dave than I've had in a long time. First time in about 2 1/2 months of traveling that I haven't had to empty the suitcase! That's huge! I was able to get my first day of rest in many, many weeks and for that I am very grateful. I do think DG is coming down with something though, started in on a cough this morning, I'm worried. I have been trying really hard to keep her healthy! She has an amazing immune system! I am just thankful that we don't have anything major planned for several months now.

Tonight I ventured out to the store with Dave and Delanah to get groceries for the week. Earlier I perused the Weight Watchers website and pulled down several recipes that I wanted to try this week. I ate well while we were gone, made some good choices in food there, but I am so ready to get healthy, homemade meals back into our bodies! It was tough for me to see the bill get so high (I misplaced my coupons), but it will do that when the majority of the things in the cart were fresh produce. It's a learning process. Way cheaper than if we ate out every night, and heaps healthier too, I just need to change my way of thinking.

Tonight was a wonderful dinner! Isn't it funny how you can feel the healthy food make your body smile? Ahhhhhh.... Tomorrow I have another fun meal to make; comfort food WW style. As it's supposed to be cold and snowy, I think it will be appreciated by all.

Off to bed to dream of healthy meals, to give my body much needed rest and to start renewing my health.
