Even though we have the christmas tree up (no decorations yet :/), there is christmas music playing, the house smells of saffron and cinnamon, we've wrapped christmas presents and placed them under the tree.... but still, it doesnt feel like Christmas time.
If im honest, this year, 2013 has just flown by.... its like i cant quite understand that in a weeks time it will be a new year.... it will be 2014. My only thought is, where did 2013 go?
Does anyone else feel like that? It feels like all my friends feel the same way as me... like this year has just been strange, almost like time has speed up?
Anyway, to sum up my day : food, food, food, wrapping christmas presents, food, food-coma, walk with my family, food.
Actually today i got a comment about when you're in recovery in can feel like all you are doing is eating...that is exactly how my day has been today.
And it sucks... haha. I love eating, but when it feels like that is all im doing, then its not such a good feeling.
My best advice - which i also need to listen to - is to find something else to do inbetween eating. So that it is not just sitting around, waiting to eat again Of course, if you're in hospital, there isnt so much else to do. But try doing soemthing like knitting, laying a puzzle, learning to play an instrument, reading, writing, putting together a video, making a collage (this is a good one to do now, because you can make a wish board for 2014!) calling a friend, skyping to someone, doing some homework or research etc etc
And then if you're allowed you can always go for a walk, go shopping, leave the house and meet a friend, go into town, clean the house, clean your room, take pictures etc etc
Now, im planning on going to bed with my huge bloated belly ( ^_^ ) and looking forward to a new day!!! :)

DeleteGod, you People chill out a little bit, its nice enough that she does reply which most bloggers don't do, and she will reply when she has time, why rushing her and pointing that out. Its not like shes obligated to do it, its her courtesy...and if she doesn't reply her blog is already answering most of the asked questions just read the topics...
ReplyDeleteSorry for my long comment but I don't think anyone should be under pressure to do something...just enjoy your school break, relax and have fun :)
Thank you for the comment :) Really i dont mind though... i do say that if i forget to reply to a comment or an email, its better to jsut resend it or remind me, as i do have other things as well. But i enjoy helping as much as i can, and try to do my best!! :)
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great Christmas!! :)
