Ramblings: An Update on Life…

Where do I even start? My mind is going a mile a second and I can't even get my thoughts processed correctly these days.  It's been almost nine months since I started working full time and I've got to be honest, it's been difficult for me.  On top of my thyroid condition (I HATE it!), being anemic and feeling tired all the time - it's hard for me!  It's especially difficult knowing that my kids won't have much of a summer because both parents are working full time, five days a week, to get … [Read more...]

Tuesday Thirteen: 13 “More” Things About Me

A few months ago I posted about facts about me so this is kind of a continuation of the first one. Also, if you're a blogger, you may have noticed that I wrote "Tuesday Thirteen."

I tweeted a few weeks ago that I had to get a fine-needle biopsy because of an abnormal ultrasound (results showed spots of calcium deposits) of my thyroid.

There’s Alot of This Going Around…

--Being a bad and/or an absent blogger. Yup, that's me.  But I don't think I've been that bad. I haven't been blogging because I've been sick. I hate being sick. I have Hyperthyroidism, an overactive thyroid gland.  It basically means that my thyroid is producing an excessive amount of thyroid hormones that circulate in the blood. The medication that I was taking wasn't working properly and I had no idea.  I knew something was wrong because I felt exhausted all the time, my hands … [Read more...]
