Side Effects



My throat hurts and has hurt for sometime

Its not a cold-just a side effect

My eyes are heavy-they have been heavy for sometime

Its another side effect

My muscles ache-they've ached for sometime

thats another side effect

I'm tired still-I've been tired for sometime

another lovely side effect


A dry smile. I am feeling better but still tired. If I really think about it, why would it be so different. Of course I am tired, there are side effects to my medication and treatment I am on and Tired is jsut one of those lovely effects. I am moving about and around the house. I am taking care of a few things of importance like a shower and laundry. Also watching my pre-recorded shows that have piled up over the last many days.

I'm positive that I am not going to do too much more, but atleast I am doing something. A little bit is a lot to me and that is just fine and I accept that.

Going to wander around and mozy like a snail in a turtle race.
