Breathing

[susandennis]

It has been a while since I've had breathing issues. A nice while, I might add. Yesterday, I was doing a bunch of stuff and it felt like breathing was not that easy. So I stopped doing a bunch of things and sat down and put my feet up and I was fine.

But, it kind of bugged me as in was it in my imagination or in my lungs? So today, I had time and no plans and decided to take a little walk and stress the engine so to speak.

I walked over to the Japanese grocery and back. And, yeah, there's a problem. It's not a show stopper. I got there and I got back and someone walking with me would likely not have noticed a problem, but there was panting. Probably had I sucked on the rescue inhaler before I left, there would have been nothing to notice.

So... note to me... next time you are going to do stuff that requires breathing... inhaler.

Considering what I went through at the end of last year, I am so happy to have the breath I have now. Nipping any problems in the bud seems to be the ticket. So I'm vigilant. Plus now I have General Tso's chicken for dinner!

I'm not sure how things are up your way, but down here, people always have some breathing issues this time of year due to all the pollens and stuff in the air.

OMG, I did not even think of that. Even here in the concrete jungle, I've got that stupid tree that probably hates me as much as I hate it.

The possibility that it could be temporary and seasonal is way better than other options I came up with on my own. Thanks!!
