The ups and downs of today
This morning I sat in a meeting at work and this is what I wrote in my diary:
I'm really struggling today, I really "want" a smoke, Want is highlighted because I know I don't need it as I have my patch on...
* I have a headache
* I am tired, so so tired even though I had an awesome sleep last night
* My right side of my body is hurting, more an ache as that is where my patch is
*My teeth hurt
*I have a disgusting taste in my mouth
*I'm short of breath
And the big one--- I can not focus at home or work!!!The funny thing is at this meeting we have a guest speaker from the Cancer Council currently talking about issues our Government has with our cancer treatment in our state.
Ironic?
Five hours later I am typing this up and don't feel like one at all. I feel very strong! I will finish with a quote that I have picked from many I have hanging around my office---
"People often say that
motivation doesn't last.
Well, neither does
bathing- that's why we
recommend it daily"
