Yikes, it’s been TOO LONG since I posted!!! Our Abbie girl is 6 months old now. I have a million things to say and that I’d like to share and dang it I wish I had shared daily highlights so here’s my attempt to try again. I just renewed my domain name again.. I love this place. I’ve always loved to blog. I started way back on Angelfire and Geocities with little paragraphs then eventually Livejournal, which I still have.
I want SO BADLY to make a career out of helping people with their mental and physical health – to be everyone’s cheerleader! I have the enthusiasm to do so but I just don’t know how do to so yet but I’ll keep trying to find what’s right for me.
The last few days have been really great.. I’ve been taking extra iron off and on since April of this year and I can really tell a difference overall when I take it so I’m gonna keep at it until I get my iron storage (ferritin) up to where it should be!!! I’ve lost SO MUCH HAIR on my head from all this health stuff PLUS 2 pregnancies since 2016 so my hair is the thinnest it’s ever, ever been and I’m soooooo sad. Be careful what you wish for because I wished for thinner hair – well, I got it! My ferritin needs to be up there 50-60 or maybe higher before my hair regrowth will be good. Last check on ferritin was a 14 and that was BEFORE my pregnancy from 2018 into this year. I’m gonna get it rechecked in October.
Anyhow, if this posts on the 23rd then I’m doing highlights from yesterday. Katie is loving middle school so far.. I cannot wrap my brain around the fact that I have an ELEVEN year old. Just mind blowing sometimes. Yesterday Katie and Ben played in the backyard for a bit in the evening while I used the manual push mower to cut the backyard grass a bit. It was great to be outside. Been trying to sit outside when I can and get some more sunlight. I took care of the 2 littles today like usual then when Brad got off work we packed the kids into the car like sardines lol (they’re all lined up in the back seat) and went to the store to get a few things. I might buy a little 3 wheeled scooter for Ben and try to teach him then he can burn off lots of extra energy! That boy does not sleep very much at all! So we’ll keep working on that.
Alright, off to play my game for a little before bed! Hoping I can keep up with the posting on here. It’s FRIDAY!
