Birthday Fun!

Birthday Fun!

I've been sooo busy with school and trying to keep up with meds/ stay healthy that I haven't blogged. Sorry at the epic fail on my part.

Sooo my birthday was last Saturday! I had a great day! Andrew and I met my mom and cousin Kazia (she was staying at mom's) for Donuts at my friend Larry's Donut Shop. He didn't have my favorite kind :-( BUT I tried something new and loved it just as much! YUM :-)

Andrew and I hung out most of the day at my house. I did my meds, he played guitar. It was pretty chill. Then we got all dressed up and went out to dinner and to a DeMolay Reunion/ Installation. I got to see a bunch of friends from that youth group I used to be in (hadn't seen some since 2006). It was amazing seeing everyone, hearing how everyone was doing, and I even got to dance.

Note: I love dancing...too much. No birthday would be complete without dancing!

Then Andrew and I went out for food with a couple really good friends and hung out!  It was a great birthday. 28...whoa. Crazy! I have friends turning 30 this year!!!! my 10 yr reunion is this fall! yipes!

Oh, and Andrew got me some pretty cool gifts....here is one of them:   -->

Also I got my hair cut again thanks to part of my mom's gift!!!!

Other than my bday, I've just been practicing for the Musical I'm in (Xanadu) , workin, and going to school. :-) BUT IT'S ALMOST SUMMER!

I'm looking forward to having more time to spend with my family, Andrew and all my friends! Not to mention I won't be crazy busy, so I can save more money, etc! Summer can't come fast enough!

My Dad Deserves More Than 1 Day!

Happy Fathers' Day to ALL the Fathers out there! I wanted to post a list to why I'm sooo thankful for my dad (its faster, bit more fun, and I gotta get ready for my Dad's Cookout still)!!! Top 15 (10 isn't enough..lol) reasons Dad should get more than a day of celebration: 15. He loves meeting people, making friends, and is quite social. 14. When something goes wrong, he is the person that can say the right thing to make me smile :-) 13. Is always honest. 12. Few yrs ago, he gave me HIS car, (so i could get back and forth to work/play practices) He rode his bike to work and back (he enjoys it too tho) 11. Best Sense of Humor! 10. He never complains, ever! 9. Growing up my Dad worked 6am-3pm at one job and 4:30-10pm at another. 8. Dad still managed to go to 99.9% of my performances 7. He is the least judgemental person ever, he talks to & helps everyone! 6. He is a pro at making doctors, insurance companies, & hospitals do ...

5K. I could cry. Beyond Annoyed.

My 5K I paid my registartion fee weeks ago, have been training and I'm ready for the 5K. However, I didn't get to run my 5K today. Why? Because Cystic Fibrosis decided to one up me. I got my spots back friday, and they just got worse and worse. They look like this: They take over my feet, and sometimes my calves. I posted about this a few weeks ago. I had them during the last few performances of Hairspray. I call it the "Mummy disease" because when it happens my joints freeze up and I can't move. So the morning of my 5K I wake up and they are on my thighs...     and on my arms. This is the worst they have been in years. I took pictures to show Dr. B at my clinic on the 11th.  I'm just really bummed and upset about my weekend! I was supposed to run my first 5K!!!!! I then had a bags tournament in Peoria for the Dream Factory, and was then going to head to Champaign for Sat night- Monday! My friend Alex, reserved me a ticket for Ren...

A Simple Hug

I'm a hugging type person. In fact, I have a couple friends that aren't big on hugs or any kind of public displays of affection. However, they usually bring the bubble barrier (as I call it) down to hug me good bye. I'm also super extroverted and LOVE to hang out with friends.... Therefore, not being able to see my friends (with CF) in person drive me nuts. A lot of people (in society) don't realize that people with CF cannot be around each other. This is due to the bacteria we colonize in our lungs. It doesn't affect non-CF individuals. But, as we come in close proximity with other people with CF those bugs spread and continue to damage our lungs faster. We fight off the bacteria with antibiotics, but when I was younger we didn't have many options for antibiotics (especially nebulized). This meant we could not eradicate the bacteria and were stuck with it in our lungs for the rest of our life. The more bacteria we culture, the faster our lungs are damaged, t...
