Let the games begin!

Here's where I am in my boring life. Remember that boob strain I got? Well, I went to the doctor's just to make sure it was nothing. Now I'm not sure. The doctor now wants me to get a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound. Now I'm officially freaked out. The doctor wants to make sure that everything is ok. I am scared. I know women younger than me that have had breast cancer. I really don't want to go crazy about this until there IS something to freak about but of course I can't help but worry.

Then I have this whole house issue. I found a house I want and put in an offer. Now they have countered with a ridiculous amount of money and earnest provision. Also, we have had 4 showings in 5 days and don't get me wrong I'm not bytching about that but I do have to pack the kids and the dogs, all three, in the car and get the hell out of Dodge.

I am exhausted from worry. Worry about my health, worry about the house. It's just one long worry and I think I am paying the price physically for it. I am so stressed. I used to get excited and happy about house hunting. Now I am old and tired and just want to move and settle down and focus on my health and my family.

I know, crazy right? I am young still and well I will be fine. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. I have to, to keep from going completely insane. Oh and I quit my job. I will not say why because I am not sure who reads this blog but I am looking for another one and have several upcoming interviews. As if my life is not crazy enough.

What does not kill me makes me stronger, right? If that's the case after this has all finished I will be as strong as THE HULK. Well, enough ranting and raving and letting the world know all of my problems. I will keep my five rabid readers informed.

Until next time...

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak.  In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of  the top of my nail, showing the te...

It's been three months....

Okay it's been three months since I started this journey. I had decided to stop being a slave to my fake nails and go all natural. For better or worse, I wanted to stop putting so many chemicals in and on my body and just let nature take it's course. Having said that, I knew I was in for a rough ride. For starters, I have been wearing solar/acrylic nails since I was sixteen years old. I now have a 16 year old daughter of my own, so you do the math...I will not help.  Anyway, The first two months were hard. My nails were so thin and weak that I could actually bend what little nail I had backwards without pain. So I cut my nails down to the quick and decided to start new. I first started with using Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps but found out that they have formaldehyde in it. So I changed. I over to Nail-Aid's Keratin and 3 Minute Artificial. It is made in America and does not use formaldehyde and does NOT test on animals.  So, I saw little to no improvement...
