So, um, I somehow failed to remember that taking my supplemental oxygen product really helps. I haven’t had it since … spring 2014, I think? Wow. That’s why I’ve went downhill for a long while… since that’s important for my chronic Epstein-Barr Virus, plus I have other chronic viruses too. I emailed my Doc and asked about potentially even getting prescribed an anti-viral or if they think I should stick with the natural means, like Olive Leaf and the supplemental oxygen. I just know my body is overwhelmed, for sure. I WILL OVERCOME DAMMIT.

ANYWAY. random.. I really like Nickelback’s new album. No hatin’.

What are you waiting for?
Are you waiting on a lightening strike
Are you waiting for the perfect night
Are you waiting ’til the time is right?
What are you waiting for?
Don’t you wanna learn to deal with fear?
Don’t you wanna take the wheel and steer?
Don’t you wait another minute here?
What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?
You gotta go and reach for the top
Believe in every dream that you got
You’re only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?
You know you gotta give it your all
And don’t you be afraid if you fall
You’re only living once so tell me
What are you, what are you waiting for?

Got some college done tonight, along with a few chores around the house. Katie is bout to get to bed then it’s CHILL TIME <3

HAPPY MLK DAY! It was a sunny 60 degree day, but I did not feel well… I ate eggs/avocado/coconut oil mix this morning like I used to but honestly I think it overstimulates something because every time it makes me nauseous and I get chest pain. Remember I thought it was caffeine or aspartame to blame? Nope. I didn’t have either today. I think my thyroid meds are too high now. I really need to get my thyroid levels checked again. I slept in late then felt bad after eating for a long while, so I felt like doing very little.

I eventually got my college work done throughout the day and then it wouldn’t upload right and Katie was arguing with me about a toy.. ARGH, but got everything done and Katie is now in bed.

OMG TIME TO RELAX AND PLAY LOTRO.

I’m done with today.

Oh, dang. I have meant to update every evening but then by the time I realize it’s already midnight.

Anyway! Last Monday was mostly centered on getting college work done then the rest of the week was average! Didn’t miss anything in my life, lol.

Yesterday was my cousin’s birthday!!! He’s like a big brother to me. I went out with the missionaries yesterday and although we didn’t have any luck it is just an honor and privilege to get to go out with them to try to inspire people to come closer to Jesus Christ. I got my church lesson ready and off to church we went this morning!

Everything went awesomely and I taught about prayer in the women’s meeting. I need to get back to being as spiritually in tune as I used to be. I have been out of balance for the last few years and it really starts to pull at my heart after so long. I just need to get back into a steady routine of all the things that will help me spiritually. I have a strong testimony but I know I can feel so much more uplifted and inspired when I do those things too because I felt it so strongly years ago. I WANT THAT AGAIN.

Brad dropped us off at home, ate, then he went back to church to help with his church duties. Me and Katie ate lunch then I took a nap and watched the latest Parenthood episode… *sniffles* ONLY 2 EPISODES LEFT. So, so, so sad to see it go.

Brad and Katie are off work and school tomorrow, so CHILL DAY FOR US!!!!!!!! Off to play LOTRO and have an awesome evening!

We almost made it to church this morning! I wanted to get up at 6:30AM, but Brad didn’t get me up till 7:30AM and I have to wait about 2 hours after my thyroid meds to eat (that’s what I’m used to), so we decided to relax today. I went back to sleep for a bit then got up and we just hung out.

I washed dishes, folded laundry, washed more clothes, and

.. that was the overall summary of my day! This evening I went over to Moms for usual Sunday game night! I won at Phase 10, woohoo. I love playing card and dice games. It is always fun.

It started raining before I left, but wasn’t raining on the walk home. EWWW it’s supposed to rain till Wednesday.

…

No thx. Alright, let’s go Monday!

OOPS. Once again – by the time I realized I didnt blog yesterday it was after midnight. My bad! Friday was good… it was my chill day. Katie talked a lot in school this week, but that’s her only downfall of school. Went out grocery shopping and ate dinner at Whole Foods Friday evening then came home to play…… LOTRO <3 I stayed up till after 2AM then went to bed and had-had some caffeine, but felt good. I told Brad to wake me up at 8:30AM, but he tried to wake me up at 6:30. I fell right back to sleep lol. He didn't mean to try to wake me then. I got up at 7:15AM tho, took my thyroid meds, and later ate breakfast. I drank the rest of my energy drink throughout the morning and it really perked me up, lol. Later in the afternoon Katie went to Moms while we went to the mall to buy my awesomely missed AMINO ENERGY blue raspberry flavored!! It has good amino's in it and a little bit of caffeine. I used to drink it all the time and I want it back. However, after lunch today my chest felt heavy and then I just felt weird and didn't know what to do so I went to try to lay down but then thought I was gonna be sick so I went to sit in the bathroom to just breathe. Katie was like, "Mom are you ok? Mom? Dad, Somethings wrong with Mom" so Brad came in there and knelt beside me but I was waiting for it to pass so I was just breathing. It went away and I felt fine, but yeah that sucked. I think part of it was too much caffeine so I just need to keep it down to a minimum. Brad got real scared... aw. My babe! I felt good the rest of the day and after I ate dinner I felt even better. I feel very calm! We picked Katie up, came home to eat, then set up Katie's bath and Brad got her bathed/dressed and she was off to bed. Next, I cut Brad's hair in the bathroom and then took a nice bath.. since my legs were far too hairy lol and in need of a desperate shave. Now can ya guess what's next???? ... LOTRO <3 lol. Such a gaming nerd. Have a great Saturday night, woot woot. EDIT: Actually... it was not the caffeine. It was from the aspartame-ridden syrup I used on my waffles yesterday :/ I haven't had aspartame in FOREVER and yeah, that stuff is NO GOOD. #saynotoaspartameplz

It was so cold this morning that the bus driver had to manually open the bus doors for Katie to get on, lol. EESH, talk about some NOPE.

I decided to try out some rice with my breakfast… ugh. Bad idea. I dunno wtf is going on with my digestion but seems I have times when it really gets screwed up. I’m trying dammit.

Done for the day: college work… check! house chores.. laundry still on-going. katie bathed and in bed… check!

The grandma of the boy that goes to school with Katie said she wrecked and flipped her car 3 times Friday, holy snap. She walked away with only bruises. She was really lucky.

NEW PARENTHOOD EPISODE TONIGHT. I cannot wait to watch it! *squeeeeeee*
I’m boring… off to play LOTRO lol. <3

It’s already in the teen digits outside…. *hides*

UMM, really uneventful day.

As I read the news and hear of people going through so many illnesses and troubles, then people that are killing their families.. man, I just pray.

I just pray for everyone. I have a heart full of love and want to inspire people to be better and I know I can do better each day too. I know people that have been suicidal lately and I just feel such a slump in my heart because it’s hard to hear or see someone going through that.

Passing on lots of positive energy. Life is so short and every day should be cherished. After all my life changes years ago, I finally felt confidence and began to love life in general. I still do! I’m so THANKFUL to be alive, even though I have my own health struggles with hormones, vitamins, etc but I’m breathing and just blessed to be here.

<333

It’s 52 degrees right now, but our cold front starts tonight! High of only 36 tomorrow and might have a chance of something Thursday, ugh.

Tuesday events? Bedsheets in the wash? Check. Looked over college stuff for the week? Check. Nap this morning? Check. My Aunt came over for a bit this afternoon to watch the latest Maroon 5 music videos with me, lol.

Brad has to go help with church tonight, so I’ll give Katie a bath and put her to bed then fiddle online and play LOTRO!

Will probably call Mom in a bit too. Oh, I put on nails stickers yesterday for the first time in a while. And my knee is feeling better, but shoulders/arms still sore.

Seems my blog posts are pretty random now, lol. Enjoy the rest of your Tuesssssssday =)

OWE.. my arms and shoulders are so sore from that fall and my knee really aches. *complains” lol.

UMM, so I thought Katie went back to school today. We got up, ready, then went to wait outside for the bus in the chilly wind. NO BUS.. after waiting 10 extra minutes. Came back and told Brad he needed to take her to school since I guess we missed the bus? He drives her over to the school to find out it doesn’t start till tomorrow… LOL. Woops. Brad heads off to work and Katie goes to play and color. Nothing too great about today, really. Maintenance guy came to fix our heat and look at the vent fan in the bathroom that needs a new motor and hopefully he’ll put a new one in Thursday. I took a nap while Katie watched a movie and then got various things done this evening.

College starts back tomorrow! Gotta make sure I look at what I have to do this week for class. Otherwise I just want to lay around, but the glutathionine supplement i started taking is REALLY helping my energy! I was not tired ALL MORNING. The only reason I took a nap was because I knew I needed to rest my banged up sore body.

I’m gonna get better =) and I watched the latest Biggest Loser not long ago. Loved it. Gonna play LOTRO a little before getting some nice rest.

Today was pretty good, except for hitting a pinecone and falling off my push scooter on the way to Mom’s this evening… =(

We stayed up way too late (catching up on Walking Dead!) that we skipped church today and slept in. I got up, played LOTRO, then got Katie up, etc, etc. I messed around then did chores and cooking before getting ready to head to Mom’s for card/dice game night. I ride my little push scooter over each Sunday. I had just gotten onto the pavement and went 10 feet? Then I hit something and SMACKED the pavement on my hands and knee. I made a noise when I hit, but it wasn’t painful enough to make me cry. I got up and kept going, lol. My cousin was coming into the apartments in his car as I was leaving and he stopped me to ask if I had called Mom to let her know I was coming over and I told him I had fallen, hah. I took a look at my knee.. almost bleeding and already bruised and I busted a blood vessel in my left palm, OWEEEEEE. Yeah, I’m in pain lol. I went and played cards/dice and took some pain relievers. My right knee hurts pretty badly. Had my excitement for the day LOL.

Happy Sunday! It’s supposed to be cold this week… possible snowyness on Thursday. I don’t look forward to walking to the bus stop in the cold in the mornings, ugh. Have a good evening.. I’m gonna play LOTRO and try not to move my knee. 😡
