Pause

Thank you all for your prayers. I spent most of the weekend resting and eating bland food so my belly is feeling better, although not 100%. I went to my GP yesterday and she thinks that it's just a virus. She explained to me that since I have ulcerative colitis that any little imbalance (like a cold, which a I had last week) can cause my sensitive bowels to act up.

I did go to a restorative yoga and meditation class on Sunday which helped me relax. For those of you that don't know, colitis can be aggravated by stress and lack of sleep. I've been pretty stressed out lately since our house is still a mess (although we're chipping away at the chaos) from the renovations and I haven't been sleeping well (I blame it on the L.upron). I also went to a level one yoga class yesterday and I felt great afterward.

I slept in until 9:30 this morning which is almost unheard of! The noise of the garbage and recycling trucks didn't even bother me.

I cannot believe how much stuff we're getting rid of. Mr. JB packed most of the stuff away pre-renovations since I was still recovering from my lap. Although he tried his best, I'm still baffled at some of the stuff he put in boxes! I found a whole bunch of stuff that could've been recycled or thrown away. Then again I shouldn't be surprised since when he moved in I found unopened mail and garbage in some of his boxes!

I promise a more detailed post later. I have to get back to the crazy basement!

Btw, does anyone want some fancy crystal bowls? I've found so many wedding presents that I forgot were given to me. How many fancy vases does a girl need?

Thank God for Freecycle!
