so it is the end of Christmas but I just
kind of wanted to recap on it because I
haven't been home for about two years
now it went by so fast I just want to
say but I'm very happy to be home and
it's been tough because I had pneumonia
a lot of people don't really know what
pneumonia is and what it does to you
there are some people that think like
pneumonia is like a cold and then it'll
go away in like a day it blows my mind
because that is never the case
ammonia goes away after a week with
antibiotic it takes about a couple more
weeks
for me to feel energetic and stable
again so I'm still coughing up stuff I'm
not contagious anymore but I'm still
coughing up the fluid that was
collecting in my lungs so it's
exhausting like everyday and my body's
tired I'm not doing any exercise for the
next couple weeks ammonia is a very
common thing more common than you think
and a lot of people can catch it so you
just have to be really careful so I
bought these pills are called elderberry
pills so I'm gonna start taking those
because it helps your immune system for
one and then I'm also going to be
continuously taking a probiotic which I
ran out of them before I came but I was
like I'm gonna wait till I come home
because I want to get some good ones and
all that stuff so now that I have them
I'm going to take those two pills get
lots of rest to drink more water I
bought I bought a Fitbit Versa recently
so for Christmas so I'm gonna be really
really taking care of myself a little
bit better but it's not really about
taking care of yourself you can still
catch a pneumonia like no matter what
like it doesn't matter like how good you
take care of yourself but it does help
prevent it this Christmas has been
wonderful I got to see my family
yummmm I'm so excited yes Wow look at
the table it looks nice done yeah job
are all these gifts for me Christmas Eve
we usually go to my mom's side of the
family my grandpa passed away a long
time ago not too long ago it's like I
like a couple years ago maybe so it was
like maybe the third year that he hasn't
been with us the first time I went home
that was the first year that he wasn't
with us so that was a little weird but
time I was a little better everybody was
very happy we're listening at Christmas
music
I love going to my grandma's there's a
lot of nostalgic feelings when I go back
there there's a lot of little things on
the mantles and in the bedroom and in
the living room that I saw from my
childhood and it just brought back a lot
of good memories
