Hair cut

Had my hair cut. I have had a long hair but it did not look good in the ends of it so my daughter cut those ends away. It made my hair about 15 cm shorter. Now I don't think it looks feminine as it is and I think that it should be curled or something ... have kept it tied up for two days.

Grateful

Tonight I am grateful of my wonderful family. I amgrateful that the washing machine works. I am grateful of my daughter who cooked the dinner - such a delicious one, with rolls and everything! I amgrateful I had the access to doctor when I needed it. I am gratedful we all get help when we need it. I am especially grateful of friends who encourage me when it gets tough. You mean a lot to me, and I value you more than your weight of gold. I love you. God bless you !!!!

Panicking with asthma :D

A friend told me not to panic and he was right of course. Panicking makes me feel worse and it can also make symptoms more difficult. But it is evening again and I am suffering from cough attacks and I am really scared of the night ahead. I think part of trembling is lack of sleep too. I feel anyway that I breathe easier now than I did in the morning before seeing the doctor. After that, I have been adding on the medication and it feels good. Well, better anyway.

It is just not so comfortable and soothing to see a doctor get worried.

Heard of a virus medicine - but it should be taken almost immediately when the symptoms begin - and that is when I usually don't even realize yet that something is going on. Must talk about it next time with the specialist.

Sick leave

I went to doctor this morning, after a most horrible night with continuous coughing and short of breath and real difficulties with breathing. Was put to one week's sick leave due to acute, very difficult asthma. Medication that already was increased was doubled. I am shivering and trembling after having taken all that though most of it is inhaled... still. I wish that I don't have to go through anything like last night any more.

An incredibly good article. Boycott body bashing, because it does not feed our hearts or souls and it is harmful to children who might hear it. There are more important things to discuss than diets, kg:s and losing and gaining and body appearance. Go us! Thank goodness we are not all alike!
