Stir fry Tuesday

  I must be getting better. I basically exploded the Kitchen Tonight by making a big batch of Frank AKA chicken stir fry and rice. I used the last part from the chicken I got a couple weeks ago from the deli next door from the market. I really haven't felt that well today but it was important that I get back into the swing of things and I think this has been really good for me in achieving that kind of recuperation. My night wheezing / rails have gotten somewhat better allowing me to sleep for the most part through the night. I have been working on trying to stay better hydrated and I've been doing the tea and honey trip as well. I've been doing herbal teas and adding nice squeezes of honey which makes a very nice drink when supposedly helps with the coughing and such. Nothing else that certainly can't increases my urine production. I've decided to stop invested in the gigantic bottles of orange juiceFor the reason of price as well asThe amount of calories that orange juice contains. If nothing else just start drinking straight water as much as that's difficult for me to do. Maybe indulge in some vegetable juice here and there which is not nearly as expensive as the orange juice.


The Assault on the kitchen took place starting earlier this afternoon when I cooked a pot of rice that I wanted to use in making my favorite go-to meal Frank. I have a piece of chicken or had a piece of chicken in the refrigerator from the chicken I got from the market a couple weeks ago from the deli just enough to using the rice dish. I had a bag of baby carrots and I thought that I had an onion but when I went to start preparing the union I found out that it was way gone down the road of spoilage. I pulled myself together through something around my neck and burst out the door of the complex to cross the street to this little bitty market for Indians from India. It's really a cute little place but they have a little produce always have onions of course. I got a couple of nice red onions and some ginger. I assumed back home and began processing the vegetables and celery I got a couple days ago the onions or chopped and minced making a major mess on the kitchen cupboard table countertop. Working on the dish certainly made me feel better I don't know why maybe it's just taking control back from my illness controlling my life again. I think I've been giving more control over the sickness then I knew. I was pretty responsible washing a lot of the pots as I finish using them. I still have plenty of dishes to wash but it got rid of a lot of the big pots and pans which is a good start. I did the same with the vegetables that I processed onions and the garlic and the skins from those particular vegetables so at least kicking around. I finally got the rice done let it sit aside and cool down then finally found a a bowl with a cover to put the rice in and threw it in the refrigerator to eat on for the rest of the week. It turned out okay it was worth the effort even though it was a late start and I was pretty weak trying to process the vegetables. My body's tired and I'm still wheezing off and on bringing up crowded whatever's left over from the disease process. I wish I was totally well again but hopefully that will come I'm just happy to sleep through the night and hope to continue doing so for the next however long I can. I don't know if I'll wash anymore dishes tonight maybe just put the coffee together for tomorrow morning and my home health person and hopefully the apartment was still smell of cooking…
