Frolick. Play. Treatments.

Coffee chats with Grandma Inez, laughs with my sister, lunch dates with Allie, lazy days watching my favorite shows, quality time with Grandpa, and lots of treatments... that's what I've been up to the past few weeks. I have been so pleased to spend my time with such amazing folks. I truly am so very lucky. Tomorrow night the fun and frolicking continues! How could I possibly top the activities listed above, you may ask... with MAROON 5 tickets of course (insert appropriate shriek here)!!! I love them oh so much and may or may not know their entire CD backwards and forwards. I'm more than a little excited. My friend Kelly and I are dressing up fancy-schmancy and going to dinner then the concert. Woohoo! I know, it's almost too much fun and excitement for one little blog post.

On a little less exciting note, I've also been fighting an infection that seems determined to inhabit the dark and scary parts of my lungs. Don't fret, I seem to have fought it off for the most part. Still feeling crumby in the mornings and at night but I have a few prime hours in the middle of the day when I am able to breath easier. The times when I can't breathe easy really freak me out. I don't know if it's unique to CF or if everyone feels this way but I swear that each illness or bug makes me feel less and less resilient. Very frustrating, especially since I'm such a basket case already. I'm a bit of a control freak, type A personality, and ultra claustrophobic with a giant side of anxiety, so when I feel like I can't breathe (as such is the nature of CF) I freak out a little... okay, more than a little... a lot. Just this bug that's been threatening to invade my lungs has been wiping me out. I am thankful that I've had the time and opportunity for rest these past few days. Alright, no more whining in this post; you have my word.

I promise to post a completely bias and adoring review of the concert in the next few days! Like I said, I am SO EXCITED. If you are reading this and you're one of the people mentioned in the first sentence of this post, I love  every second of my time with you. Just saying. :]
