Health for days journey – day 15 (update) One day late edition and a movie review

Hey guys,

No, I’m not dead. I was out yesterday so I didn’t post my update!

Mr.R got home and said I was not myself so, to cheer me up, we decided on doing date night. We ate Kebabs and went to the movies with the intention of watching «Beauty and the Beast», but we decided we should watch a comedy instead so we watched «Going In Style» with Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Alan Arkin. I don’t watch many comedies because they usually fail to make me laugh!! It was not the case at all, the movie was hilarious!!! Really, it was laughing from beginning to end!!

Desperate to pay the bills and come through for their loved ones, three lifelong pals risk it all by embarking on a daring bid to knock off the very bank that absconded with their money.

Story-line:

A reboot of the 1979 movie that was directed by Martin Brest and featured George Burns, Art Carney, and Lee Strasberg. Three seniors, who are living social security check to check and even reduced to eating dog food at times, decide they have had enough. So, they plan to rob a bank…problem is, they don’t even know how to handle a gun! A social commentary on growing old in America and what we are sometimes driven to, due to circumstances.(Written by William Adkins)

IMDB gives it only 6,8/10 which seems to low for me, since it was the funniest movie I had seen in ages!!

I’ve just found out there is 1979 version and I think I might watch that one was well. Really, belly laughs for days. I hadn’t had so much fun in a long time. I highly recommend the film.

In other news, I’m fine. But less fine (I’m so eloquent) than in the last few weeks. Bae says he’s worried about me. I’ve been sleeping 14 hours, sometimes more and as soon as I get up I feel the need to lie down. I’ve not been exercising because I’m too weak and dizzy.  I’m more nervous and reactive and my nightmares and restless nights are back. Definitely need to speak to my doctor about this. I was doing so well… Such is life. I’m keeping positive and I’m sure I will be back to feeling great in no time.

The food we ate last night was yummy but only at the moment. We both felt too full for hours and I felt kind of disgusted because I could feel the food on my stomach. Does that make any sense? It’s funny how your body gets used to getting good, wholesome food and cannot tolerate shitty food anymore. This makes me happy. I know the feeling of being “well-fed”, hydrated and nourished. I had not been like that in years!! Even my cereal doesn’t taste the same. I would much rather have a super healthy green smoothie.

Anyways, I’m fine. I might go to the library today and maybe go for a walk, if time allows it. I have a ton of dishes to do but that can wait. Right now I’m in bed, blogging, Mr. R is next to me playing some game on his computer (I think he doesn’t want to leave me alone) and Rosa, who is never allowed on a bed, has a free pass today, so she is lying down at my feet.

Miss you guys so much.

Love you all.
