My new journal

I created this blog to be my new journal. I got tired of spending tons of money on journals that I either don't use or use and finish. So here are the ramplings in my mind. I have spent the better half of this morning watching reruns of Project Runway and Amercia's Next Top Model to get some sort of motivation for my weightloss. I have gained so much weight and am tired of just of not caring. Let me take it back I do care but I just can't do anything about it. I have be restricted by two of my doctors not to do more then ten minutes a day of cardio so I have taken up Yoga; which by the way is crazy hard. I was not sure I could do Yoga because I am not very flexible but I have found that if I try the gentle/old people Yoga that I can do that. I feel kinda pathetic for doing modified yoga when just 6 months ago I was busting my ass on the treadmill for 45 minutes and doing cycling at the gym for half an hour. Now I have been reduced to a pile of blubber on the sofa longing for some Taebo and saddly excited about my yoga time. I have enjoyed the meditation though and well if the doctors want to keep me on this modified excercise issue then I will have to make the most of it. I will find out Thursday and will keep everyone posted.
On a different note, I am having my oldest friend and my sister visit for my birthday. I am both excited and worried. Having that many people to be responsible for is a little nerve racking but I am looking forward to it. I have a lot of stuff planned and hope that it all goes well. I plan a lot of drinking. Not sure that that that is a real good idea with this group but too bad I think I will need it at the end of the day ; )

Tune in next time for the continuing adventures of a crazy bytch.

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...
