February 2021 W.I.S.H. - Being your own Fabulous Self

Woo Hoo!

I finally feel better. I had to leave school yesterday because I felt so ill. This morning I woke up feeling well, and I still feel well.
Glad you are feeling better!

I got my vaccine tonight. I got J&J, so only one shot. Most people I know had a reaction after the second shot with Moderna or Pfizer. So I’m not sure what to expect with J&J. But so far, so good...
 

Grateful and thankful that family and friends eligible for the vaccine have been able to get appointments. It feels like a weight has been lifted-so definitely feeling the health benefits from that. Not to mention peace of mind.

Thankful I am able to get out and walk on these beautiful spring days. I definitely sleep better nights when I get in a good walk.

Thankful for time spent with family these past few days. Love that my husband and brother in law still refer to my 60 year old plus sister in law and me as “the girls”!:rotfl2:
 
I’m thankful PA got teachers the vaccine. I got mine last night along with another kindergarten teacher from my building as well as our principal. I got J&J and had a few minor side effects last night (fever, chills, body aches) and couldn’t sleep. So I took the day to rest (which was easier to do because I had prepared sub plans just in case).

I’m thankful my parents both got their first vaccines this week. My mom got Moderna on Tuesday and my dad got Pfizer yesterday.

I’m thankful for my pregnant sisters health and the soon arrival of my niece. My sister is scheduled to be induced tomorrow!

I’m thankful that the threats made at our high school yesterday were handled quickly and seriously, although seem to be false alarms.

I’m thankful for my husband taking care of me this morning and some quite rest time today! And the sunshine! ☀️
 
Thankful for the beautiful weather we've been having, which is forecast to continue thru Saturday.

Thankful for the path I'm on. The past few days at work have re-confirmed that it is all real. I'm making changes in how I do my work but am feeling like medication is something that needs to be explored... the thought of how it could improve things opens up a whole world of possibilities.

Not so thankful for my scale. I got on it this morning and it showed a number considerably higher than previous readings. There's no way I've put on that much weight in the past week based on what I've been eating and how my body feels, so I think the previous weight was incorrect. I'll weigh for several days in a row and see what's what, if the number isn't consistent then it's time for a new scale.

I’m curious to know how you do. My daughter will most likely be getting the Johnson and Johnson since she can’t be vaccinated until May.
 
Howdy & Hello! Taking a lot of thoughtful time past couple of days... I've worked out too and I can. not. move. So sore!!! 😬

Throwing back briefly to a couple of days ago--- women who inspired me.... I was fortunate to have amazing teachers in classical ballet that were forces of nature and still are today. For determination & discipline & grit they meant the world to me. As I grew as a young Army spouse I also had several... at least 10 in all honestly over these past 20 yrs, amazing women on my paths that gave selflessly, exemplified how to be a solid rock in the most turbulent of times and how to weather those moments with grace. Being ready for anything, bearing it all, and taking a breath at the end to laugh or grab a glass of wine is a skill. I truly credit the majority of my personal growth to these ladies and the road my husband's career led us on.

Woo hoo... half way thru the week... I got in a good appt for me! I had lunch with my husband! and I've eh, been on task pretty well this week.

Thankful Thursday.... gratitude... for peace in my mind, an amazing newspaper spread which featured my oldest- thrice... what?! That was a surprise! A good weekend and spring break ahead of us. And meeting a new mom from my littles class that I can hopefully get to know better. Good things. Now if I could just stop comfort snacking ☺
 
I’m thankful that DH got his first shot. He got Pfizer and feels perfectly fine. I’m not gonna lie... I am a little jealous since I got him the hook-up from the parent of one of my students... I got the Moderna from school with all the side effects, and he got the better one thanks to me LOL. I’m just relieved that he got his first one too. We’re closer to normal than yesterday.

I’m thankful that tomorrow is a planning day. No teaching. Most teachers are being vaccinated tomorrow. I have one meeting and the rest of the day I can work in my room catching up on stuff. Then we can go home at lunchtime.

I’m so thankful for the gorgeous weather. 50’s and 60’s all week.
 
I'm thankful my parents got their second shot yesterday. They're a little tired today and mom has some slight chills but otherwise they're just so happy.

I'm thankful that although I was blah on Monday, but I did my walk and ran into a good friend. She walked the next three days with me. It's been so nice. I'm feeling not quite so blah. I think a lot of it was just uncertainty. I really am much calmer and happier when I have everything mapped out!

So we learned that mom does plan to take the twins back when she's finished school. She finishes in June but sounds like she won't take them back until the end of summer. Not sure how we feel about those extra months. But that's one less uncertainty in our lives!

The twins have been very lucky to have you...you have gone above and beyond for their mother. You deserve to treat yourself to something special.
 
Friday roundup:

I got back on the scale this morning and was one pound lighter, so the scale has reset itself to be accurate and I lost a pound this week.

For various reasons, yesterday was the first day in a month when I've been able to take both of the things I take for my thyroid and boy did my energy kick up, my mood as well.

I'm planning on picking up the paint for the office tonight, but not planning on painting until Sunday. Tomorrow is supposed to be gorgeous and almost warm, so I'll spend some time cleaning up the front porch but I'm also thinking about doing my country loop drive, which I haven't done in over a month, and stopping along the way for a walk.

Next week we go to Phase 3 with 50% occupancy for restaurants, gyms etc, which is really lifting the general mood for folks. I don't know that I'll change any of my habits, since I can't get vaccinated till it opens up to all in May, but it is good to know folks are going back to work and we are on the path to "normal".
 
Today has not been a great day. I am not feeling the greatest. Lots of pressure in my head with a slight headache, cramps and a bit sick to my stomach. I will take a nap after work and hope it all goes away.

My moms school had another bomb threat again today. And my city is having an issue serving a warrant. They have had the main road closed all day with police from serval cities and the swat. They have been there since before 9:30. It sounds like it has turned into a hostage situation (I don't know this for sure. Just what is being said on Facebook).
