6:30a- woke with throat hurting. Eyes crusty. Severely congested. Whole body aches. Gonna diffuse thieves or purification once I get up.
8:00a – posted a new devotional to my blog
9:30 wore out already only thing I did was make homemade ranch dip mix
Laying down for a bit.
Figured out how to save my devotions to my pintrest account. Wonder should I have seperate pintrest for website? Too much to keep up with now probably
Actually started looking on phone to see how many drops of copaiba needed for pain & which oil is best when not feeling well.
11:50a – out last minute Christmas shopping with family. I’m am grumpy pants. All the commotion and business is not suiting me well. My body screams pain from head to toe. Jordon is looking for a wheelchair for me. Yeah he found one!! It’s at half power.
3:00p- I am spent- no more pushing at the moment. Need to go home and rest for a while. I don’t know if copaiba & peppermint helped or not – possibly so.
3:47p- just about out and got a phone call…sleep eludes me
5:30p – burnt my neck & lip while trying to cook dinner. Oil splashed out of pan. Ouch!
7:00p – decided to go check out new coffee house, monster, at the mall. We used to attend same church. Nice place. It was exciting to see the steady stream of customers. What a treat! I didn’t get coffee bc I knew the caffeine would keep me up all night. Decided later to try the truffle hot cocoa. Delicious!
11:50p – stuffy nose, leg are throbbing, eyes watery, left arm & hand tingly, slight headache, legs itch. I am beyond exhausted!!!

10:30a- crustless pumpkin pie in oven

11:30a- 1st pie done. My back is feeling icy and aches. Lungs hurt when I cough. Clutsy hands today. Low back throbbing. Feet achy. I’m exhausted.
1:25p- dinner in crockpot, pie crusts made. Low back throbbing! Gotta rest a bit. Eating a salad.
1:33p- choked on my salad and drink. Almost had accident. Ugh! I have moments with difficulty swallowing since my lightning strike. Resting in bed now.
5:00p- third pie finished. Working on finishing up dinner. Also made cinnamon rolls for breakfast…just have to bake them.
Muscles in legs twitching. Feet throbbing. Back aching. Hands swollen and achy.
