Went cross country skiing today with a group of friends and of course hubby. Had a great day. The sun was out, it had just freshly snowed alot lol, the trail was groomed perfectly. Should of been a perfect day. Then bang there it was "TN pain" The cold which I know does hit me. Soooo unbelievably frusrating, yesterday so excited about a peanut butter sandwich and today could barely talk or eat because I spent the afternoon out in the fresh air and sun...REALLY?? Well I'm sorry nerve you are just going to have to get over yourself because I am not going to sit around in the house on such a beautiful day and watch everyone else enjoy it!!!!!!
Maybe I have the wrong attitude and am being too stubborn for my own good but I did not go through what I did to still have to say "No I'm sorry I can't do that".
I have to admit today was a morphine day...alot of pain but hey so it was a morphine day, not the end of the world. Hubby went skiing again but I bowed out, stubborn but not stupid lol. I spent time with my daughter at the pool and hot tub so still had another good day. Monday morning I can say..."had a great weekend thanks" and mean it.
You so encourage me!! I am feeling so dejected right now. I needed this kick in the backside to get me facing tomorrow! GO GIRL YOU CAN DO IT!! blessings and hugs~~
In the winter when I am out running, I use a balaclava mask. I am able to pull it down on my chin and it keeps my face a bit warmer. Sorry to hear that you are going through that and I agree, nerve, you are just going to have to take a back seat!!! Wish it would really listen. :(
Im still taking morphine to keep the pain down since Saturday's skiing trip. Hope it calms down soon. I read online about getting wind in your ear, could that be it since I am still healing from a MVD? I am going to take better care of myself outside while skiing(yes I am still going), not the big trips anymore for now but the smaller ones. Thanks for all the advice on how to keep my face warm.
Here is a funny story for everyone...I Hate Hats!!! even as a kid I use to bury them and tell my grannie I lost them..lol. for now I am going to wear hoodies and ear muffs. That should be ok, eh? Yes I am from Canada.lol
Since my MVD and have gotten back to work and have been doing normal stuff around the house again also getting out with friends I just have a new strength. I want this over and my life back. Maybe I have been pushing it but I am so done with it all. Happy to hear it encourages you as well. YOU GO RIGHT ALONG WITH ME!! Hugs back to you
