So my blog break ended up being a bit longer than I anticipated, but I’m back!
First off, I finally went back to the dr about my never ending cough. I went to my allergist this time and finally got some answers. I’m happy to report that 2 days of prednisone, multiple inhalers, and antibiotics for a sinus infection have finally done the trick! Yesterday was my first day without cough drops in 2 months. Seriously, I’ve been buying them in bulk. I’m not at 100%, but I have so much more energy now that I can breath! (My allergist had me do a breathing test in the office and I was down 30% from my baseline. No wonder I’ve been exhausted.) In fact, I have so much energy that I made myself a spiffy chart to keep track of when I need to take all of my meds!
I laminated it so that I can check off each med as I take it and then the next day I can use it again. 🙂 It’s working out super well.
In other exciting news, I passed my certification test! Hopefully this leads to some awesome job prospects for next year. Ideally, I’ll be able to teach at the school we’re hoping to get Raptor accepted into. It’s a lottery, so all appendages are crossed! They’re drawing names today and I’m super nervous.
Hmm… What else is new. If you follow me on Twitter, you may have noticed that I have a new obsession with painting my nails. Partially because I just think it’s super fun, and partially because it’s helping to break my terrible habit of boredom eating while I work at night. Wet nails don’t keep my from typing, but they do keep me from snacking. 🙂
I’m also thinking of making some new letter a week units. I’m currently pinning stuff for a J is for Jungle theme!
