Better

Ummm...no big fluff of joy at the house we saw yesterday. DH will most likely talk to the landlord. If the rental is re-negotiated, we might not switch eventually. 

On the other hand, the new antibiotics have improved my situation. I am happy about that.

Since yesterday, I have a lingering bitter taste in my mouth. It is just one of the side-effects of the antibiotics, and since they will be my partners in different combinations for the coming month, something I just have to make peace with.

I have now also been able to pin that the general sense of fatigue I have, the feeling of stiffness I get every morning when I get from bed, and the dull pain in my legs, something that I have felt but ignored for long, are just outcomes of the anemia. 

My in-laws leave tomorrow. I have been craving a quiet, peaceful, back-to-my-space kind of feeling for a while. I have firmly practised patience, leaving DH to deal with stuff I wouldn't want to bother with. It helps.

  1. Patience is good - and I'm glad to hear you're starting to feel a bit better. Hoping you'll be back to full strength soon! And hurray for peace and quiet and making DH deal with his own family...
