Anxiety

-

September 6, 2018: It's been a month since I've wrote almost. I'm doing pretty good. I've had severe writer's block. I was sick most of last week, the weekend and I'm finally on the mend. Saw my therapist the other day.  Spoke about my anxiety while I am driving. I'm afraid to run into one of my exes at whatever location I'm going to or being followed home. I have to remind myself I'm safe in my car, I'm safe wherever I am going, and safe at home. One thing that was suggested was to roll my window down so I don't feel suffocated in my own car. I've tried it and it helps.

Stressed beyond belief

January 12th: First of all, Happy New Year. I'm stressed beyond belief. I don't know what to do. I've had a migraine headache for over a week. Went to the Dr yesterday and the shot in my butt didn't help. My brother-in-law's health I feel like it continues to decline every week or at least something new pops up every week. If it's not his health it's something else that we have to deal with. I know this is life, but I can't keep on doing this at this rate. I need help. We need help. If it's not my brother-in-law, then it's something to do with the farm. If it's not that, it's something to do with us personally.  Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile but I haven't known what to even say for a long time now. It's like my creativity spark has just disappeared from me. I need prayers, positive vibes, and positive thoughts coming our way.  I just recently lost my Great Aunt, and growing up I always knew she'd die one day too, but j...

Family is Tough Sometimes

-
To my reader's, I thought I should come here and blog about recent events.  My brother-in-law has been diagnosed with stage 4 non-alcoholic liver disease aka NASH. I do feel like I know nothing about this horrible disease. However, I probably know more than you , my reader, just because I am learning about it as I go. He sleeps a lot due to the ammonia levels in his system.  He's extremely jaundice, which for anyone who doesn't know, he looks yellow, including the whites of his eyes.  Today seems to be a good day. He seems very alert and less confused than other times. Some days he is not alert, and can barely function.  We've called in hospice and he is currently under their care. I never thought I'd be 38 years of age and dealing with hospice for a brother! It's overwhelming to say the least. So much to do, learn and ask. We've received some great things from them to help him around the house to be independent. He is a guy that desires to be independent so...

No Rides in the Ballpark Here

Well another year has gone by. Many things have transpired in that year.  My Brother-in-law passed in March on St. Patrick's Day last year. Anyone who ever met him knew he was a gentle giant. He loved you and would protect you. Holidays have been tough since he passed. They always are though after a loved one passes. I honestly don't know what more to say about the loss of him. My husband and I are trying to better ourselves and our marriage.  We decided that as a couple we are going to write one or more good things that happen in a week every Saturday evening. At the end of the year we'll read all of them and reflect on the year we had. I'm currently enjoying my job as a shift manager. My husband is still at his job and helping me a little bit at my job as well.  We both bowl still on leagues and off leagues. Im very proud of my husband cause he is trying to get a second associates and possibly a bachelor's degree I do believe. We are definitely staying...
