Do you believe people come into your life haphazardly or that there is an actual reason? Do you believe in fate or destiny? Do you think life has a purpose some higher meaning or that things are just random occurrences? Do you believe the universe has a master plan? I’ve been a believer in fate my whole life. I’ve had to many meetings in my life where the time and place I met someone so many random things happened got…
There are so many things in my life I am truly grateful for and I can dedicate numerous posts to each of them. Today I want to talk about the ones that can never read my post. I actually started with cats. My first apartment didn’t allow dogs. Each fight my ex-husband and I had resulted in another cat. My dad, who always owned dogs, used to say “you’re a dog person”. I started pushing to get a dog as…
Pity party blog today. I’m just angry today. I wrote my whole blog already was ready to post it but my hand that holds my iPad started to fatigue and my finger hit the settings button on the side panel…lost everything I just spent 30 minutes writing. What did I do wrong? I exercise six days a week. I try to eat somewhat healthy. I take my medicines. I still get worse. I don’t know what else to do….
Has there ever been that guy in your life that could still make your heart flutter after many many years? Even though you have no idea why. Maybe you had a relationship with them or maybe not. Maybe you just saw them from across the room in the high school cafeteria but you’ll never forget them. I met my person in college my sophomore year. It was one of those weekend where everyone leaves school to go home for the…
A plant based diet is a diet based on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes; and it excludes or minimizes meat (including chicken and fish), dairy products, and eggs, as well as highly refined foods like bleached flour, refined sugar, and oil. A 2013 Nutritional Update for Physicians stated, “Healthy eating may be best achieved with a plant-based diet, which we define as a regimen that encourages whole, plant-based foods and discourages meats, dairy products, and eggs as well as…
ok maybe not a cyber crash but I’m taking a crash day. I’m going to go back to bed and recharge, regroup, refuel and recoup. I haven’t done a full day where I spend the day in bed in a long time but I think I need to today. I went to bed super early last night and I’ve been up since 2:30am. I let thoughts take over that shouldn’t be plaguing my thoughts anymore. No matter what I did…

How are you feeling? I never thought I’d hate a question more. Doesn’t it seem like EVERYONE asks you that question when you have a chronic illness. I have my standard answer to people which is, “I’m good”. I mean what else are you going to say. Truth is half the people that ask the question don’t even want to know the real answer anyway. I don’t even mean that in a mean way, it’s just people are self absorbed…
I saw this quote one day and it rang true. “You’re only alone if you don’t like who you’re alone with.” I’ve always been that person who had trouble being alone. I never really liked myself. I hated my body thought I was fat, not worthy of good things, unlovable and didn’t have any value. I also on top of it had multiple sclerosis so who would accept me. I’ve lived my whole life with a low self esteem, no…
I’m asked a lot, by my family, if I’ve learned anything since I started writing this blog. The biggest thing I’ve learned is that somehow we all understand what each other goes through. I follow a lot of people with some sort of chronic illness. I read their blogs and can totally relate to what they are saying and I get comments all the time that they relate to what I am saying. It doesn’t have to be someone just…
