I’m starting to wondering if all my body needed was a round of Prednisone to “clean out”. I have two more days with only half a tablet and the difference from before is significant. It has been a roller coaster to say it the least. The beginning, when I took several tablets a day wiped me out and I felt so sick. But days like today makes me wonder if there even is some autoimmune disease present. Because I have been rocking it today!
Got out of bed at 6 am. I had already been awake earlier in the night as I need to go and damn pee every third hour still and at that time I put the horses feed to soak. So I was able to go to the barn early! I had gotten a message that the two pigs, Siqua and Penny had suddenly left for new homes yesterday… didn’t even get to say goodbye to them. And it was quite empty without them.
But right away when I got in to the farm I got chills. Both the gate to the road and the gate to the house was open. The horses could get straight out on the road and leave. But it didn’t take 5 seconds and I saw all three at the back of the pasture. They must have missed that they could get out… thank you Lord! Thank you, thank you thank you! But whomever picked them up screwed up even more… they left the stall to the feed open. Well, there was only pig feed and cat food there but the mess was of course made…
I just don’t understand how people can walk onto someone else’s property and leave doors and gates open… the owner is out of town and I have been watching it for a while. Well, this was apparently something that came on fast yesterday but I was pissed about this. All my girls were perfectly fine thankfully! I hope Penny and Siqua gets a good life at their new home!
Came home and got to work with cleaning. I had made a goal to get my bathtub scrubbed. I don’t know how a bathtub can get so dirty but it was. It was an accomplished feeling when it was done. I was very happy with myself. Believing that I would be quite exhausted after that work, it was hard. But I wasn’t tired. I kept on going with cooking some meal prep so I have some more food in the freezer. Now when I have a microwave again and have more benefit of being able to just throw it in there!
I have started the “clean out” project again. I have to get that garage under control so I can get going with the storage. It is so hot and muggy outside. But this morning I started with taking in some plastic bins that was close to see what was in there. Pictures and mugs. The amount of mugs and cups that I have is insane! Put them in the dishwasher as they were super dirty.
Yesterday I started organizing and throwing out stuff that I have stored in my office. I bought some moving boxes just because it’s easy to store. Even though plastic boxes are more preferable, it’s not as affordable right now. I’m going to order moving tote bags for all my darn blankets I have as well.
So all the mugs are now packed away together with some that I had in my daily cabinet that I don’t use. Then the goal is to be able to clean out the garage to the point I can move all of it out of my office… one day…
When all this was done, I realized it wasn’t even noon yet. What in the entire world? And I felt like I could keep going! I took a break but still feel like I have enough energy to do something else. Thinking about re-organize one of my closets later this afternoon. I have thrown in clothes there so it’s a big mess. The grass is still too wet so I can’t mow, otherwise that is something that needs to be done…
But I must say, I am surprised about all this energy. As much as I am happy! I just hope I don’t get a big backlash tomorrow when i have to work again. Just praying I can keep this flow going and give that good news to the doc in a couple of weeks. That would be awesome. We will find out as time comes!
