Counting down the days until the first official day of SUMMER! A lot of people do not like summer, but I love it! 😀 My favorite. What’s been going down since last time?…
> We were trying Katie out with panties during nap time and bed time. She did great with the nap time, but first night with panties she wet them. We’re seeing that she isn’t able to wake up during the night to go pee, she just sleeps right through. Just gonna wait until she’s ready! That was a MAJOR stressor for me Saturday morning, and then I got added stress later that day trying to align my schedule with my neighbor’s so she can take me for Katie’s upcoming Doctor’s appointment. In the end, Brad said he would just get off early that day and take us. Yea, I really need to get my license and have transportation. That added stress? Ugh, it really had impact on me – mood, appetite, everything, and I always feel lousy – don’t want to move, my weight / body fat goes up. It really does a number on me! I tried to relax the rest of the day, but then come night time Katie would NOT GO TO SLEEP and yea, that only enhanced my irritation. She didn’t go to sleep till after 1AM because she was playing in her bed, even though she kept yawning. (we still have our video monitor to use every now and then). Woke up feeling horrid Sunday so we didn’t go to church and I tried to just take it easy. Brad had never seen The Lorax, so we all sat down together Sunday night and watched that together! :]
> GAME OF THRONES, AAAAAAH. Winter is coming.. =( and then The Secret Life finale? HA. Everyone is enraged and disappointed. Ramy FTW. :/
> Went back to see my Naturopath yesterday!!!!! My T3 labs have been like this – 2.5, 1.8, and now it’s 2.2, which is still really, really low. I need to be up there atleast to 4. My T4 went down tho, so we’ll see if that goes down anymore and might have to take a little T4 too to bump that up. Iron levels are slowly going up… which is good, so I will keep taking the iron supplements. So, MD bumped me from 5mcg to 10mcg of the T3 meds and I know that will help! We’ll see how it goes. I had those big stressors Saturday… only “started” to recover Monday, but then I waited way too long to eat Tuesday because I was running around and that relapsed my body back into that stress mode and so, I don’t feel that well today. Went for my light workout at the gym last night, but gonna take the next week or so to just try to take it easy and get my body balanced and to calm down.
> When Brad and I came out of the gym yesterday he heard hissing when we walked up to the car… sure enough the back right tire had something stuck in it and air was leaking out. Ugh. We had a “doughnut” spare, so Brad changed it and we made our way (at a slower speed) back home. He got up this morning and took it to a nearby tire place and they said that it didn’t ruin the tire!!!!! We thought we would have to get a new one, but nope! They patched it up and that was that! WOOT. Brad was only an hour late for work, but his boss already knew the situation.
> I GRADUATE IN 5 DAYS. I will be getting my first degree – my Associate’s in Business! I’m almost all situated to begin my BA in Health and Wellness and I will start that on the 25th (i’ll get a little break YAY) of this month and then another 2 years will be underway. I’m so happy to be getting my education and I know this will give me potential for opportunities. Although, I know a lot of people still struggle to get jobs/careers, even with degrees, but I’m happy to be learning!
Well, I’m off to go get a nice shower and eventually take a nap! Have a lovely day and rest of the week, plus an epic weekend!!!
