I have a quiet Friday evening ahead - so unexpected in my brain that I'm completely unprepared. I suppose I could always do some cleaning..... nah.....
The weather has been perfect this week and the crops are being harvested at a steady pace. Brody has gone straight from football pads to a tractor seat as much as possible. He and Grandpa Dean are like-minded in their enjoyment of planting and harvesting. The connecting link, my hubby, has been preparing fences to allow the cows to make good use of the remnants left behind from the combine and getting ready to make corn stalk bales in another field. That is where his passion lies - the animals. This new balance has been good for all of us.
I have enjoyed having the wherewithal to do some cooking for everyone working so hard in the field. Having survived my first herxheimer (herx) reaction to the beginning of antibiotic treatment for Lyme, it is refreshing to have energy and brain waves to enjoy such ordinary activities. I had my first appointment with the specialist following my diagnosis this week and he added 2 more antibiotics so I'm expecting to hit another herx before too long. Lots of blood drawn to check for possible co-infections, immune system deficiencies and hormone imbalances which are common with Lyme. I sincerely wish getting healthy wasn't so expensive!!
It feels strange to post with no picture. Wished I had a camera driving to work this morning. The sunrise was spectacular. Have to be better about keeping it in my purse! Now, out to enjoy what is left of this warm October day!
