New Car

Excitement New Car! I bought a 2006 Chevy Cobalt!  My new Cobalt will run a lot better than my lst two cars... 1985 oldsmobile (I had from 2001- 2008, which had a hole in roof and rust down one side..lol) and a 1994 pontiac bonneville (which I've had for the last yr & 1/2). It was missing a strip on the side and both hood/trunk were held down by bungee cords.... But... I can't complain... thanks to these cars, my dad always found for me, I had NO car payments AND dirt cheap mo. car insurance...so I was able to make extra payments on student loans, etc.. Ps. I'm addicted to Brach's Candy Hearts... I bought all the bags they had left on clearance... 5 bags for 25 cents each... Should not have that much sugar in my house ( I don't eat candy that often, but Candy hearts...my weakness!)

The Farm, Being Thankful, & Meds..

The Farm, Being Thankful, & Meds.. I love fridays! Tonight I'm going with my parents to my Uncles House, they are making dinner! I can't wait, I always have a spectacular time when I hang out with them! Then Saturday I'm going to the farm... How weird... I never have refered to my Grandparent's House as " Grandpa & Grandma's"; I have always just called it the farm. I think all the family has...since well forever. At least it really is a farm. My dad evens says "I'm going to the farm" (not mom & dad's). I wonder how many people think I'm going to an actual farm. Got some GOOD NEWS! My insurance company is paying for my new stomach formula! YAY! Here is something really ridiculous. The enzyme powder CFers have to use in the stomach formula to digest the feeding didn't make through the FDA protocal in time. Therefore, CFers (who some, like me, need the formula at night to gain weight) can not use it the higer

Valentines Day

        Valentines Day... I'm not sure how many of my friends are (or aren't) celebrating Valentines Day. And oddly, thinking back...I don't think I have ever had a boyfriend during Valentines Day..  I realized the majority of my relationships ended a few weeks before it.. not that it matters, because we all know the best part of Valentines Day is Brach's Candy Hearts! This year I have decided to celebrate Valetines Day with a best friend of mine. We do dinner once a week usually, and I figured why not Valetines Day. I'm excited to make dinner ( I have sundaes planned for dessert, with homemade raspberry sauce, and heart sprinkles)! I'm also thinking of making chocolate/raspberry milkshakes (mine would be super high calorie of course)... I add my calories after my friend has her's poured. CF TIP: If you want to make a high calorie drink but are sick of milkshakes, because lets face it from birth, our doctors, nurses, and nutritionists are shoving

First blog: Hello

My first Blog: A little About Me I'm not sure why I have decided to start a blog, however, here I am.  I have honestly thought about writing about my life for years, but have always chickened out. I have finally decided to share the experiences life has thrown at me. The biggest reason I have been asked to blog by people is because of everything I have dealt with medically. I have Cystic Fibrosis and a few other medical problems...This is probably the best reason why I should blog. I can relate to others who are dealing with medical problems, however,my CF is also why I did not want to write this blog. CF can be embarssing and annoying sometimes... but it  has helped define who I have become to be as a person. Therefore, (yes, even though I want it cured) I don't hate having CF. Let me start off with some basic info and statements. I'm 26 yrs old and have dealt with CF all my life. In this blog you will hear recent stories (good, bad, embarassing); and sometimes I wi
