NOT INTERESTED! DAY 19 / DAY 1

Today is Day 19 of Water and feels like Day 1 of "Getting Moving"!  This week has been a little different.  On Tuesday night I completely broke out in hives and spent Wednesday at the emergency room!  Before I got to the ER I stopped to get a ginormous cup of water and as soon as I walked in the nurse yelled, "Don't drink any of that water!"  I didn't know if she had seen something in my cup or if it was really poisonous water.  When she realized how loud she yelled she quickly calmed down and told me that I shouldn't drink anything in case the doctor gives me any medicine she didn't want for the water to come back up and I choke on it. Anyway, I leave the ER in one piece--no choking or gagging on water! and I didn't even get any medicine so I wasted a perfectly good cup of frosty water... for nothing!

The doctor was VERY nice to me considering that I was just sobbing because at this point my skin had started to gross me out.  I just kept reassuring him through my tears that, "I am okay... I am just freakin' out."  Because of the "freakin' out" I think he wanted to find a solution quick.  He quickly gave me three prescriptions to get filled and told me that they would solve the problem in a few hours.

Since I have filled the prescriptions I have been NOT interested in water at ALL!  I do not like taking pills with water - so these last few days have been rough! There are two gallons of sweet tea, a 2-liter of A&W Root beer, and crispy looking 2-liter of Strawberry pop (my favorite) and orange juice in my fridge that I have been sadly avoiding all week.  When I get to day 21 in a few days I will probably not want any thing else to drink but water.  But today... I am NOT INTERESTED in the tasteless, clear beverage that even though is refreshing is SUPER plain... water!

Wish me luck and keep me lifted up in prayer that someone does not find me passed out at the foot of the fridge after an overdose of all the yummy beverages listed above!

Today I am... acting crazy over something to drink! LOL

P.S. Getting moving has been a bust this week.  Today I went swimming... Let's see how the next 20 days go for Getting Moving 21 day in a row! Stay tuned.

Thanks Lisa... Yes, it was quite crazy but... as you saw the recovery was fast and painless! LOL - I have like three more days of medicine and ONE more day of all water! Today has been a lot easier to handle the water! It is a lot tastier on this hot hot day!
