OverdueOverdue

I know this post is way overdue. I want to let you know that it’s not that I didn’t want to post. The reason I have been very sick and trying to get better has been a challenge. Plus I started a new treatment for my UC and it has been a roller coaster ever since. Just trying to make it thru my day has been harder enough, because I am still trying to do what I can around my house and take care of my animals at the same time.

I know that I have the support of my friends to get through this , but it just took a lot longer than I hoped for. I know that I will get through all the pain and not feel myself because one day it will be good again.

For the ones that follow me and read this, thank you for sticking with me. I try and get the energy to do this but some days it is too hard even on my hands. I have a lot of cramping and pain I deal with on a daily basis and I don’t like to have people feel sorry for me. I just want others to understand what one goes thru.

I never judge a book by it cover and I hope that I can get other to see what it like from my point of view.

Thank you for reading and following along.

SavingSaving

This year has gone by and so much has changed in my life. I know that I am working on be debt free and saving money. I know they have a few ways you can save and budget. I am doing a lot of different things and I would like to share them with you.

First one is I have a auto amount directly into my savings account.

I also do surveys and play games that get me gift cards that I can use instead of money.

Plus I have been working on decluttering my house and selling things. I know one day I will get there just by taking time.

I also am starting to use those saving books where you put cash in a book and mark it off.

It has been a rough few weeks losing my sweet boy, which makes me want to do more in life. His life was cut short and I am going to do what I can for him. Everyone says you need time, but no amount of time will bring him back. I know that he is watching over us and I want to make him know that he is missed and very loved.

So hopeful by the end of the year I will be closer to my savings goal.

Goodbye and DepressionGoodbye and Depression

This last week we had to say goodbye to our sweet boy Dubnyk and it was the hardest one yet. it has put me into depression and I am not sure how to get out. I know that others tell me that we just need time to adjust but it is not the same here any more. I miss him so much and I know my daughter does too.

I know that I can sleep or eat much and my other dogs feel it too. I know time is going to change but right now we are trying to work through it. I know he would have wanted us to be happy and know that he is in not more pain and running free.

I know that all I have for now it is just been adjustment and we are trying. One day we will see him again and it will be like we never missed a bear.

Thank you and just remember to love your pet because we never get enough time time with them.

How to say GoodbyeHow to say Goodbye

I am sorry for the last few weeks I have been under the weather. I am finally getting better but we have been busy getting things in order to get ready to say goodbye to one of our dogs. It is never easy to come to this decision for anyone. We have been trying to give him everything we can to make his life as good as it can be.

I know that over the past few weeks being sick and taking care of everything around here has been difficult for me but I am working thru each day. Plus now I have to worry about myself these days because I have health issues I need to take care of. I know that I don’t talk to others about what is going on but I know that I have to start looking out for myself instead of worrying about others.

I have been doing research into super foods and what helps you. I know that I have been trying to eat these super foods and it has helped me. I know that I will be sharing what I have found and hope it will help others too.

Thank you for the last few weeks and I will continue this journey.

Detox Social MediaDetox Social Media

I made the decision to take some time off of social media. I would go on it more than I wanted to, just cause I was bored. I started to find other things to do instead which helps me. I also did it with TV too. I know that I have shows I enjoy watching but I want to start learning to do other things with my time.

I do go on messenger because that is how I communicate with a few people. It has only been 2 weeks and I feel better because there is nothing on social media that I need to read or see that bad. I know that it is going to be a while before I just put aside but I do follow people that help me with other things I am learn to do this year.

I have friends and family that have come off of social media sites. I know that life is short and I never post anything about my life and what I am doing. I only post shows that we are going to be at. Plus follow and learn about things I want to try and change in my life. So I know that I can back off it.

Plus, spring is coming soon and I am really looking forward to that because we are going to be busy with planting and changing our yard into what we want to do. Plus take care of that chickens and make things better for them also.

I also started reading again along with working on puzzle. Next will be hanging out with my friends. My health is very important so I am learning what I can to help that also. So much to learn. I have enjoyed this year so far.

Until next time.

PSCPSC

There are a lot of people that don’t know what this is. It is primary sclerosing cholangitis . Which is a disease of the liver. I have dealt with it for over 10 years now. Everyone deals with it differently I know that for sure. There is no cure for it, from what I have been told over the years. I know that my specialist watches what they call a MELD score. Every doctor deals with patience differently with this as well. I know when I hit a number she is sending me to the transplant unit to get all my tests done to get on a list.

I am letting you know that with my ulcerative colitis and this some days are hard to get thru. Plus I have to be careful not to be around sick people cause I can get sick easily and it is hard for me to get better.

I have dealt with both of these for over 10 years and when another year goes by I always have questions about what I can do to be more healthy and not in pain. I am going to be changing medication again. This is my 5th one and I wish my body would stop kicking them out and not work.

These last to weeks that is what I have been dealing with. I got sick over Christmas and I been trying to get better ever since then.

So please understand I am going to continue this and share what is going on but each week is different.

End of YearEnd of Year

As I sit here and think about the year 2024 and everything that has happened in my life. I learned so much about family, friends and myself too. I know there is a lot to be great for, but there is this that I will have to change in the up coming year. Change is not always good for everyone that is involved but sometimes hard choices have to be made.

I have learned that I have people I can count on no matter what and there are others I have to let go because you can count on them or they are not there when you need them the most. It’s hard when you have to choice but life is not always what it seems. You make time for the one that you care about and want in your life. I know that is not always easy but if you care and want them there you make an effort to make it happen.

I have also learned I have changed what I like and don’t and want to make a difference in this world. I want to give back and make the most of each day of my life. I know this is going to be all on me, but I am willing to make the effort to know that I can do it. I want to learn more about what I am good at and what I want to work on. Change has its good side and it is bad but if you do it for yourself you know that it has to be right.

I am also going to keep going on this journey and that change I make and let you know how I am doing. I know it is never easy at the beginning but it is now or never. I know that I will have hard times but I will make the most of them and work thru them all.

I am going to take one day at a time and enjoy life a little more and have some fun in the meantime. Learn more about healthy ways I can eat and learn new things at the same time. I know that some people would call this a new year resolution but not me. Most people make them and they are short term. I am making changes and growing into someone that enjoys life more.

My health means a lot and that is one thing that I need to work on the most, because I had a rough year with that. I am ready to take the steps and change what I can and hopefully feel better and more energy.

I want to wish all the people that have followed me with this journey and will continue because 2025 is coming up quickly and I am ready.

Healthy EatingHealthy Eating

As I learn to eat better I think about what is healthy and what is not something I need. I know there are all kinds of diets out there but that is not the kind I need. I don’t need to lose weight I need to put healthier foods in my body. I agree with some of the things others do like planting your own fruit and vegetables. But homemade is the best because then you know what is going on to the dish you are making. I think getting meat from somewhere you know that it is grass fed and how it is raised is an excellent source.

When it comes to eating, everyone will do things differently. I know that food is costing more, so we all need to find ways to eat health and save money at the same time. It is not easy for me as well. I have to find things that do more than one thing for me.

I know that I am trying but it is not easy for me. I try to make better meals and go out less cause you never know what is in when you order. This last year has taught me a lot about some people and what they believe in. I can’t always believe in the same thing but I can agree with some of it.

If you have land do what you can to make the most of it and grow what you want to eat. It is more healthier, plus it turns out you can learn new things on top of that like canning which is a good source.

I know next year I am going to try new things and learn new skills. I have what I want to do and I hope that things go my way for once and I can.

Happy Holidays

Holiday SeasonHoliday Season

The Holidays are among us and we all are busy with shopping , cleaning, wrapping and planning dinner. I know that each year around this time is one of the hardest times I have to go thru. I lost my mom just before Christmas and her birthday and it has been hard ever since. I know people tell me it will get easier and I don’t see how. The one person I could talk to about anything was my mom and now I don’t have that. I know that I have friends and other family members I can talk to but my mom was different. She loved me for me and it didn’t matter what was going on in our life. She always tries and makes Christmas the best for all of us. I still have the present that I got her that year. I know one year it will be easy for me to get thru the holidays but I am not sure when that will be.

It is never easy being down for the holidays, but I try and put on a brave face and get thru it. Sometimes the ones that are supposed to be there for you, don’t listen and make things harder to handle. I know that I will be fine and get thru the holiday season again, but just remember when you see someone don’t judge them you don’t know what they are going thru.

I want to wish everyone that has followed me and went on this year-long journey with me. I will continue next year where I know I will have challenges that will have to deal with. I know that I will get thru them with help from others and myself.

One day it would be nice to get a prayer answered once, but it will happen when you least expect it.

LearningLearning

This week has been one that I had to learn how to change and start from the beginning. It has been hard for me because I am not sure where to begin. Eating is a big deal for a lot of different reasons. When you need to learn how to eat and not make yourself sick all over again. I have to eat small amounts and the right stuff.

I had some tests and procedures done and now waiting for the results is hard. It just adds more to what is on my mind and what I need to get done. I also need to take it slow and get better and my energy level back to where I can get things done. I know that I want the results to be good but I am scared.

The more time I have to wait, the longer the stress level goes up and I can’t sleep and it’s the only thing that I am thinking about. I know that things are not always going to come out perfectly but I can hope that they do.

I am taking it one day at a time to learn how to do everything again. Everyday is a challenge to get things done, I get tired of not having the energy level that I used to have. I thank my husband and daughter for doing everything for me and they both say the same thing.

I want this Christmas to be a good one for both of them. Trying to figure out ways to make sure they are doing good and have what they need. Christmas is supposed to be the happiness time of the year, but not for me it is always hard to get thru the month of December.

I have came to the end of this post and I will be trying to catch up and be better again.
