I learned a hard lesson yesterday. Actually two.
The first was fairly simple. I attempted a 24 hour water fast before my healing body was ready.
I did make it 18 hours! I listened to my body and ate when I knew I just wasn't feeling right. When I ate again, I started with grapes, rested, then had an apple.
Now,for the second lesson. Even when I feel good my body is not prepared for any sun exposure or strenuous work. I was feeling good, so I decided to mow the lawn. NOT the best idea for me.
I have an environmental allergy which still remains unknown.
Apparently I have the source of this unknown allergen lurking in my yard. It is either a grass, a weed or a pesticide.
Yes we are chemical-free ...as much as possible. However, when we moved in and faced a horrible flea issue, the grass was treated.
Boy did I pay for that choice. If any of you ever again hear me say I'm going to mow the lawn stop me!
