And it Begins

Walking to the kitchen, I open the cupboard. I just stand there, staring.... I reach my left hand in and pull out the zip-lock back sitting next to the two red "sharps" containers. My hands won't stop shaking. After pulling out one of the small white bottles, i return the rest to the cupboard, back next to the red biohazard containers.
"Ok, I can do this - its just like any other pill you've ever taken. Just toss them and and chace them with wter - no big deal."

That is what I was telling myself, but for some reason my hands wern't working. After finally removing the cap from the pill bottle, I had to remove the seal. It was the aluminum foil-looking kind that you have to poke your finger through, but for some reason my fingers were not working and I could not puncture the little devil. "Deap breath, Coral."

I got the bottle open, nearly spilled half the contents, returned the bottle to the shelf and swallowed the two pills.

I DID IT. One down, 179 more times to go! I take my first shot tonight. I'm scared. If my hands shake as much as they did this morning, I could be in trouble :( We'll see how it goes.

  1. You can do it Coral! - Starting the project is always the hardest, once you get into it, however bad it might be, the easier it will become and before you know it you will be done!
