Internet, Exercise and Magnum PI

Internet, Exercise and Magnum PI

I haven't been online much. However, I got the internet finally set up correctly at my apartment. I have been working a lot on my Real Estate work, I'm trying to finish everything and take my licensing exam in June.

Other than working, and doing hmwk, I have belive it or not committed to the "work out everyday" rule so far. My friend and I started out walking, now we are jogging/walking 2- 2.5 miles each day. Eventually I want jogging to become a hobby or daily routine that I ACTUALLY enjoy. But...it's not that bad. The first day jogging was kind of tough, but it's true... the more you run the easier it becomes...

I also have decided since my last Clinic went so well, I should really try to stay on top of doing all my treatments and see just how much lung function I can gain by July! During all (4 morning, 2 afternoon, and 3 Evening nebs)my treatments I normally read. Lately though I have been watching Magnum PI episodes. I need to get season 3 though...

I NOTICED:
At the top of the screen it says the date it aired (early 1980s) and I remembered my mom telling me she would rush home from work on Tuesdays to watch Magnum! She nevered missed it. It''s weird knowing at exactly 6pm on those dates on the screen that my mom watched the same show I was about to watch!

That's all for now. We'll see if the work pays off in July at my next Dr.'s Appt!

Today's BIG Appointment

I discussed last week about my recent struggles & goals. I have been dealing with a lot all at once! Family planning (update on that in 2 weeks), my Grandma's funeral, lower lung function. Through it all I have remained very compliant with my meds! My health is VERY important to me. So this last weekend I took my vest machine, wabi sterilizer system , and packs of ensure to my parent's for the weekend. I wanted to make sure I did everything. While it was a sad occasion, it was still pleasant seeing almost all of the family together again. Actually 27 out of 29 of the cousins made it to the funeral. Grandpa is in the middle of the picture (can you find me?) LOL On top of my medications I have been doing some dancing & walking, but no jogging or anything. I'm still counting calories on my fitbit (hitting over 3000) a day (& 40 grams of protein, 50 grams of fat at least). I knew I was feeling a bit better than before, but wasn't sure what to expec...

Beginning of the Year Troubles

Normal "beginning of the year" troubles for Andrew and I only really consist of one topic: Our Deductible [please no Obama, or government bashing] I've always had high deductibles ALL MY LIFE (no matter who was president). The problem is I hit my deductible within the first week of January. In the past I have always prepared for this and since I was still on my father's insurance (up until last year) he typically paid the bill (at least for medical stuff). And in the future Andrew & I won't have such an issue with this. We will be able to save and plan ahead for the $3,000 (for my deductible, his is another $3,000). However, this year was more difficult. We saved all 2013-2014 for our wedding & honeymoon, plus had our deductible saved too. But Real Estate was a pricey career to start, I've put almost $5,000 into it (classes, dues, licensing, exam, advertising, etc). So needless to say our deductible disappeared, thanks to my new career. Wh...

My Body Can't Keep Up

I turned 34 in April this year! I love celebrating my birthday each year and seeing more wrinkles and gray hair appear. I LOVE that I am building this beautiful life with my family. I just wish my body could keep up... Being born with cystic fibrosis meant some challenges throughout my life. I never knew when CF would throw me a curve ball. I missed a lot of holidays in the hospital growing up and sometimes my body tells me to stop. The last few months have been more rough for my CF-related Arthritis. And today isn't any different, despite it being Father's Day! Dad & Andrew I had wonderful plans to go home to see my Dad today, then come back home in time to make some dinner for my family when Andrew gets off work around 5 or 6pm tonight. I had a lot of great plans to celebrate my husband and Dad for Father's Day- They deserve it. But, I woke up with frozen/stiff joints and spots all over. I can barely move, let alone walk or drive today. So all those plans went out the...
