After my trip to hospital shortly before Christmas, I ended up on Antibiotics. Holy cow. They kicked the living daylights out of me. I have never known a more powerful kick.
I finished them few days ago (it was one long course and a very strong antibiotic). they were easy to take at first, but after a few days, they started on their purpose, and my goodness, they were really really strong when they took hold. I had borderline delirium at points.
Feeling better now. Mrs CB and I decided at the beginning of the week, that should I not start feeling better, then i would see Doctors today. I booked the day off, anticipating needing attention.
But as it happens, the pills effects have worn off. It just took longer than we anticipated.
So today, I treated myself to just rest, a little music (I have my favourite Pink Floyd on ....) and to be honest, I realise just how important self care is.
Its not a "duvet day", or some other stupid euphemism. It's me, putting myself first, putting health at the top of the pile in the in-tray.
and you know what?
I'm feeling absolutely A1 top notch spiffing.
I must do this more often!
