Lets tackle the weather first! Everything I described in the title is basically what our weather has been like for the past two weeks. Maybe it has not been hot, but to Chicagoans standards in the winter, 58 degrees is certainly a heat wave. We have dealt with whipping cold weather, an over abundance of snow, and even massive flooding. Chicago's weather is as dramatic as some people's lives.
Speaking of drama, how about that awesome Govorner of ours? Talk about up and down and all around. He is really off is rocker, and is bringing unnecessary drama to this wonerful Land of Lincoln! Blago is definitely keeping the news interesting during the Holidays this season, especially with appointing a senator in place of Obama. Really Blago? Is this the way you are going to play the game? I can honestly say I am glad my life is not that dramatic these days!
We can start where I left off. I got out of the hospital to finish a week of ivs on my own. To my dismay my lungs did not improve at all. I can't even say they improved a bit because my breathing test showed the same numbers when I went into the hospital as they did when I came out of the hospital. A little dissapointing, but not something that was going to ruin my holiday fun! I am glad to report Christmas went pretty smoothly, and having family around has been fun and challenging. I meant this in the nicest way possible. It can be stressful with extra guests around and sometimes my schedule can sometimes be altered, which doesn't seem to go well with my cf. Unfortunately cf like to have a schedule and a routine and a plan. Does that mean I can't do things that are not part of my schedule...no. It just means that I need to plan for those other things. Spontinaiety does not always fit well with a plan. Of course with every plan there is a back up plan for the times when things come up suddenly. What does this have to do with the title you ask? My life can be a wintery mix. It does not mean drama, it just means that a lot of things can happen at once.
I'm sorry, I did not define wintery mix to those of you who live in warm places. Wintery Mix: A combination of snow, sleet, and rain falling at the same time.
For example, I just got a nasty cold yesterday, and that can knock me on my butt for a couple days to a week before I can really start functioning normally again. On top of the cold I am going back to my condo in the city, which means packing up a lot of stuff that I have brought to my parents house, and on top of that I start classes next Monday, which means a little preperation with that. And we can't forget balancing the dating scene. It sounds like a chore, but everyone knows it can be a little difficult figuring out eachother and how we mesh and fitting a new person into your life. It sounds depressing, but I do enjoy dating and doing things with a person, and sharing my life with a person. No drama, just a wintery mix.
I am hoping the wintery mix will stop outside soon, but I know winter has just started here. I will enjoy the indoors, hopefully with a new boy, and start my new hobby...improv classes. It will keep me busy one night a week which will be good for the winter blues!
I hope everyone is have a good holiday season and a Happy New Year! I hope you find Peace, Joy and Love in your life, and most importantly, I hope everyone stays healthy this season and all year long!
