Class and Crafts!

Class and Crafts

Sorry, I disappeared for a bit. I had lots of exams and papers due last week for my classes. I also wanted to focus on getting back on track. I discussed how I had been getting off track with my meds and everything in my last few posts.

I have been doing better. I'm still not doing all my meds everyday, but it really is quite difficult to even fit in the ones that I can do. I need to start jogging now too though. I didn't add it back into my schedule at first, for fear of adding too much.

So besides class, what have I been up to? well, when I do my meds and treatments, I have found some fun things to keep me occupied. I have been painting and organizing my scrapbooking stuff. I do some crafting too, like making picture frames, etc. My mom has been crafting a lot too lately. Well, technically she has been sewing and crocheting. We both sells some of our products at a local store called Annie's  Little Pots!

We also are doing a craft show in a couple of weeks! My mom is sooo talented and I can't sew or crochet, but I do like home decor or craft projects. Here is a link to my mom's creations if you want to see them: Mom's Creations!


So I will keep crafting and doing meds! But hopefully I will add jogging to my schedule too! I have Clinic in 1 month! :-)

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...

Video Blog: Life in the hospital (as a child)

The daily life in the hospital! Most people cringe at the idea of a hospital. However, when I was little I never minded going into the hospital. I usually would have at least one other friend with Cystic Fibrosis to hang out with there (before we knew about the "CF Bugs"). I didn't love being sick, but I loved my CF friends that I would hang out with. Also the hospital, nurses, and my parent's tried to make it a "normal" environment. I got up and put on cute clothes, "walked to school", flirted with a couple CF boys, did homework, came "home" (back to my room), my friends would ask my parent if I could go play with them. We'd hang out in the play room or go on a walk with one of my parents! My dad loved taking me on walks and I LOVED going on our walks! Here is a video blog of the route we took and bit of information on what is was like growing up (for a chunks at a time) in the hospital! (it is posted via youtube, let is dow...

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...
