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!

How Fostering and CF impact my work

I haven't been on my blog much.... I think that is because most of my blogging is currently been done on Health Union's Cystic-Fibrosis.com (here is link to all my posts on their site: https://cystic-fibrosis.com/members/cherizkunkel/ ). I decided last fall to step away from real estate after 3 years in the business. It was tough to say good-bye, especially since I had tripled my volume and business in the last year. However, I didn't have time to add any new clients; I kept saying, maybe next week, next month I can fit more work into my schedule. The truth is fostering takes a lot of time. We have between 5-8 monthly visits at the agency, 1 court ate a month, 2 home visits from the caseworker a month, plus e have 2-3 doctors/specialist appointments for our current kiddo. We have lots of paperwork we fill out, gas mile logs, receipts to add, and more! Our kiddo also participates in gymnastics and dance two nights a week. We go to a fosterparent support group with our kid ...

Packing it on and figuring it out!

Packing it on and figuring it out. I used the same pronoun to represent two different objects. It seems wrong to do that, but it leaves some mystery... did it work? are you curious? As you might have guessed the first "it" refers to my weight. Yep, I'm gaining weight. 105 lbs. yay! I'm sooo excited to show/tell Dr. B next week! Although, I do think its all in my legs. Now that I have been walking/jogging every night, I have noticed my legs have gotten quite a bit thicker (this is a good thing). I'm don't think my legs fall in the "chicken legs" category anymore. Now!                                                              ...

End of Summer -Updates!

Wow, I can't believe it's been a year since we moved our blog to www.MoreThanDNA.org! A lot has happened in that year. My husband and I became Foster Parents to some amazing kiddos and still have one of those kiddos living with us. We have loved having "Shoes" with us and can't believe how much he has grown and learned in the year!I'm so proud of him! We have court next week, so prayers that it goes okay (and doesn't get continued again- that just drags it out longer for the kids). He is now 39 months old and starting Pre-K this month! Other big changes include: Some renovation to our home (complete Bath rehab & updated plumbing throughout), I started a new gene-targeting medication (symdeko) that is helping to keep me stable these last 3 months, and I got an AffloVest! I'm loving my new portable vest! Also, career wise...we both switched jobs! Andrew also started Seminary this summer to get a Masters Degree in Divinity. He has always wanted to be ...
