ProjectsProjects

This summer we had a lot of projects going on like a lot of others. So you want to get done as much as you can, but money is the biggest factor. What you have to do is figure out what you can do and put what is important. I know what I want to get done. I am looking forward to next year. There are something that we can’t do until next year. We lived in our last house for over 20 years and we never got everything done that we wanted so I am working hard to get more done here.

Please keep up with this blog because I am trying new recipes and I am sharing them with others. I am trying to eat better. We started going to farmer markets and we got fresh vegetables. I want to do what I can to try new dinners.

So thank you for following me. please share this so I can reach as many as I can.

DailyDaily

This last couple of weeks I have made a to do list that I do each day. I don’t like it as much as I think that I do. I sometimes feel like a robot doing the same thing each day. I try to do other things to make life fun. After a while I don’t know what that is. I have great friends and family that are there but I know my kids are doing their own thing. So I need to find something that is mine.

I listen to podcasts a lot and they are interesting. I listen to them when I clean or bake. All the podcasts I listen to are different. Some are true crimes, another one is how to make space in your life. It’s interesting because you hear other stories and you can see my life. That is when I think that I could do things that are fun and make my life better.

I know that God is watching over me along with my mom. I hope one day I can continue to help where I can. Thank you for for listening, I am going to start sharing new recipes that I have been trying.

comes in 3’scomes in 3’s

you know that saying things goes wrong in 3’s. I would believe it so much but it has happened to me a time or two. This past few weeks things have not gone the right way at all. We first found out that one dog is not doing well, second I ended up in the ER and that last my little girl dog blew her knee and it not going to be easy for her. I wish I could get her the surgery she needs but that is not what we can afford. The vet said it is not something that needs to happen right now. We will have to watch her and see what happens. In the mean time she is going to retire for physical activities for now. which is sad because she loved doing things and still does.

I know that sometimes things that happen like this make you think about life in general. I know that I want to change some things I do and help more. I have been trying to go thru lots of stuff I don’t need any more and find out places that could use it more than me.

Right now I have been on the track of getting better and making sure I know what I can do to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Plus help my dogs as much as I can. In the meantime I want to thank everyone that follows me and reads this It has helped me in many ways too.

BusyBusy

These past 2 weeks I have been going through a lot. I have told you about my dog and me. Well on top of that I have not been feeling good until I got my infusion last week. Plus we had a craft show to get ready for. It’s been hard to get things done for me. So I had to take a step back and take care of myself. So I have been relaxing and taking it easy.

I got everything done for the show and I got my infusion and it takes a few days for me to get back to feeling great and getting things done. I have been reading and asking for advice on how to get my blog out there.

when you try to do things to help others you want to make sure you let others know. I know that I read a lot of different ideas and hope it works for me. Why not try something new and see if it works. Life is too short to live the same day twice. I know when life gives you lemons make lemonade. I know that I watch shows, listen to podcasts and learn more about life each day. Making changes in your own life is always good, because you never know what the next day will be like.

Thanks for this

Ulcerative Colitis (UC)Ulcerative Colitis (UC)

I wanted to talk about Ulcerative Colitis a little because I know there are a lot of people who have. I am one of those people too. I have good days with it and bad. There are different types from mild to severe. When you have a bad day or week it takes you out . I know that the type of treatment I get is infusions and they help. I know I still have a day or two to feel back to myself again. But if you have not heard of it or know someone that deals with it, let me tell you some of the symptoms we have to deal with most of the time.

Symptoms of Colitis could be any of the following: Pain in the abdomen, joints or rectum, along with bloating, blood in your stools, diarrhea. There are more things we deal with anemia, fatigue, fever or loss of appetite, cramping , weight loss. It can drain you for a day or longer. The treatments do help but still have those bad days.

I have UC for over 18 years and I never have the same day. I know others that deal with it and are doing great. I wanted to let you know this because sometimes this is something that keeps me from making my post each week.

Thanks for listening to me and I hope it makes it easier to understand that you don’t know what someone is going through unless you ask.

Think before speakThink before speak

This week is about things people say to others that might hurt. I know that when it happens to me it stays with me for a while. It hurts for people that are supposed to love you and be there when you need them. When it happens I go through a cycle of why what I do even matters to anyone. When someone likes me with the issues I have it hard. Life doesn’t seem to matter to me anymore. I try and try but I think why no one cares if I am here or gone.

I know that I will get past it sometime but each time it takes a little longer. Many different ideas go through my head, but I do not act on any. I know that happens to others and are afraid to say something or even talk about it. This is why I want others to know you are never alone.

One day there are things that get to you, bother you, you will miss it. The one thing that seems to get to me the most is, that when it comes from someone that is supposed to love you. I know that everyone changes as they go through life but the love you have should never be something that hurts you the most.

Thank you again for letting me do this.

Getting through the day?Getting through the day?

I am sorry it has been a couple of weeks. I have a few things going on in my life that I need to take care of. This last week I did meet a couple of nice people during a craft sale I was doing. It is amazing to me the people I meet. You really never know what someone is going through until you talk to them and start to understand other lives. I know that I live with some health issues no one knows unless I talk to them. I can always talk about my chickens and dogs. They are my life and I am not sure I would get through some days without them.

I know when I am baking for these shows I listen to podcasts which are great. I mostly listen to true crime but there are ones that they interview others that have stories to tell. It helps me focus on something else that I am doing. I always make a plan of what I am going to make and each day what my goal is.

I do have those bad days that I just want to just not want to talk to anyone. It is easy to feel like that on some of the days. I do have people that care and check in with me to make sure I am doing fine. Please remember this you don’t know what someone else going through at any give time unless you talk to them or walked in their shoes.

Thank you again

How do you KnowHow do you Know

I want to talk about life and if you are making the right choices. Everyone has a purpose in life and we all need to figure out what it is. You see others make choices about their life and ask questions if they are happy or not. You could read a book or listen to a podcast and ask yourself what my purpose in life is. I think about this a lot. That is when the question comes to mind how do you know you made the right choice.

One day we all will figure it out. You just have to believe in yourself and know that you can reach it. Some of us just do what we need to each day to get by. I know that one day I will be able to answer this question just like others that have figured out what their purpose in life is.

We all have dreams that we like to do, but we never know how to reach them. I know that I have made small goals that will one day lead to the big one at the end. I don’t know how much time is going to take me, but I know that I will reach it one day. Don’t be afraid to try different things that you always want to. You will find your purpose in life.

I want to give back to others, which helps as many people as I can. I know that my life has changed over the years, but I want to do what I can. Life is sometimes hard, but I know that I will work hard and do what I can. My friends keep me going with the kindness and caring hearts they have.

Thank you again for another week.

LoveLove

A new month and it is all about love or it is supposed to be. I know that my life has not always been easy. I have been married for 30 years which is unheard of. February is a wonderful month because my little baby girl was born, she is not so little anymore. I am so proud of her and what she has done in her life so far.

This month is going to be a busy one for her and her business. I hope people go check it out. she does wonderful work.

I am not sure what is going on with me but my depression has been on overdrive. Not sure what will help make things better with it. I don’t like going to the doctor and taking something for it. I think that it is better when you can find ways to overcome it.

This is my fifth week and I have enjoyed sharing things out there and hoping one day I can help someone else. I donate stuff and help where I can and that makes me happy. I wish there was a way I could make more money and help more.

Working toward something is what my goal is. Still trying to find my purpose in life yet, but I know that it will come with time.

Thanks to all

MEME

I would like to tell you a little about me and why I am doing this blog. I started this blog a few years ago but things just kept me from doing it full time. Now that I got things better I wanted to let others know things I do to help myself. So I started making little goals for myself to help me stay calm. I have Ulcerative Colitis and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis. I have to deal with both for over 15 years. It has made it hard for me to work outside the house and be around people. So I deal with Anxiety and depression a lot. Each day is different for me. I have those great days that I can do a lot and I am happy. Those bad days are not as fun. I am quiet, uninterested in doing anything that normally makes me happy.

This past week I had a few days like that. I had to try and figure out how to bring myself out of it. I am doing better today but I’m still having a medium day. I have a good support system in place that helps me and just listens to me.

I have an email you can ask me questions or just wish me luck on this journey.
