I'm still really puffy from my weird allergy last week. My face is still a little swollen on one side but I'm probably the only one noticing. I'm still two pounds up...I lost only half of what I gained with the medication...not a big deal but those medications do save our lifes but ...this is toxic for real...
On an other subject, I felt really home sick since Friday...which is really unusual for me..I mean..."home" is France or the US...or at least where people understand what I say..I'm not difficult, there's many countries where we lived and where I can communicate easily and wouldn't scare people....and I feel like home there..
We had several really heavy rains those past two weeks, again with flash flood on Friday. A friend on her bike had an accident, lost contentiousness and nobody stopped to help her, she was heavily bleeding (from her leg) and when she "woke up" she had to phone her husband for help. Finally ten minutes later and right before her hubby could reach her, an other biker stopped and helped her get up and reach the side walk and called an ambulance. She had surgery at the hospital, was under for 90 minutes, it was pretty bad. I went to see her with fancy cakes on Sunday, to cheer her up (she has a sweet tooth)...she was happy about the cakes....not me because I had two (tiny) slices and should have stopped at one ...but whatever that was a good cake!
Anyway...I'm between tonnes of paper, organizing lots of things and I don't really have time to focus on food. But I can feel that those cakes on Sunday did trigger carb cravings...it's not often but sometimes it does show up..(or it's just because what happened was so shocking....I was in need for a pick me up..)...yesterday the kids had pizza, I had one small slice (only the topping) with my tuna...I felt like eating the bread part was going to be the start for more, I'm glad I was able to resist. Today I'm fine. I'd rather have better carbs than white flour stuff...
Anyway...counting the weeks...I will miss my dear friends for sure, but there's few things I won't miss( bad weather, food shortage etc).
