So each day I look for things to be thankful for because living with many chronic illnesses can well make you a little nutty and why me approach. And I want to be the not why me but the yes I can (like the little engine that could) accomplish what I want ( at least at this time with my medical conditions bc only my God knows what the future holds). And today and really every single day of my life I am so thankful and blessed and humbled to be the wife of my amazing husband and mom of the most amazing four children ever! And sorry the two most perfect dogs (sorry bc no photo of them today). And I have the most amazing extended family around me. So today, recovery day, I swam 3200 yards and did a light weight workout. And today I will do a sitz bath because the old fistula has decided to act up. But today! I swam, I put on a cute skirt and shirt, dried my hair, made breakfast for my two still at home and hugged my hubby. And yes my stomach today looks like I am 5 months pregnant so am sure the next 12-18 hours will be fun. But I am gearing up for a 100 mile bike ride tomorrow and 3 miler run. Thank you Susan Airheart for my training plan. Until tomorrow folks!
AND TODAY IS CELIAC DISEASE AWARENESS DAY. And yes I have celiac disease. And mine is not simple bc if I get glutened bc someone decides it is okay not to change their gloves, etc when preparing my meal I can easily go into a mini crohn's flare that can last 4 weeks or more. So please when someone says they have celiac disease listen to what they need you to do to keep them safe! Thanks for your support!
Happy Monday everyone!
