Surgery Still On, I Can Do This!

I can keep it up:

This past blog I discussed my fail at doing everything I needed to. I mentioned having a fever, well the Cipro is doing nothing. I'm not responding to it. I've probably built up a tolerance. So they are putting me on some steroids for the next four days and instead I'm supposed to focus on doing extra nebs A LOT and I'm supposed to do Cayston and Tobi, which usually I only do one a month, because they are nebulized antibiotics. But I will be doing both until after my surgery. And good news my temperature has been normal most of today and only went up to 99.5 for an hour ish.

So if I do tons of meds, walk on the treadmill and get my lungs working better. All should be well with my surgery on Tuesday. But I need to actually do it! So I apologize in advance if I don't hang out or do much this week. I need to get healthy by Tues. I have ONE WEEK to do this and  I need this surgery. Without it work won't happen. Without work I get farther behind in bills and it just can't go that way.

So here it is. Day 1 of kicking my booty in gear!

AND THANK YOU! I have reached my personal goal of $1,000 for the Cf Walk! I'm hoping my team can raise double what we did last year (roughly $2,500 this year)!!!! I'm sooo lucky to have my family and friends there to support me! I can't wait until Saturday to see everyone, you have no idea. I look forward to the CF Walk more than I do Christmas. It reminds me why we (Cfers) fight so hard. We fight for everyone we love. And I know I am very lucky to have so many people in my life who love me and are willing to donate, fundraise and walk every year! 

I am one lucky girl! http://www.cff.org/Great_Strides/dsp_DonationPage.cfm?walkid=8670&idUser=187918

VACATION YAY! Tomorrow I head to my uncles' and stay there, then Thursday morning, EARLY in the morning, we are headed to the airport! We are flying into Buffalo, NY and spending Thursday at Niagara Falls! Friday and Saturday I have no clue what we are doing! I know there is a surprise for me. But I'm not sure what it is. All I know is I'm soo excited to go! Last Fall I went to Las Vegas with my friend Amanda! It was soo much fun and had been like decade..seriously 10+ years...since I had been on vacation (well more than wknd trips to see friends who live within a 10 hr drive, hee hee Kym!) When I get back from my trip this weekend, I will post about it too! I just have to pack a little more when I go places and make sure to do my meds.

Tech-savvy Thursday- new look!

New Look: Getting Tech-Savvy: Since, I'm getting more involved in blogging, I decided it was time to give my blog a makeover! eMake-overs are always fun, whether you getting a new hair style, or outfit at the mall. However, I've been researching a lot about blogs and social networking. And I thought it may be time to update my blog's look.      I think I like my new one (at the top) a lot better than the old one (pictured on right). What do you think? I wanted my blog to feel more personal and I wanted to make it more tech-savy. I kept the black/purple color scheme. But made the purple the main color instead (and made it a softer purple). I then started looking up how to make my own buttons, widgets, etc. It isn't too hard to find tutorials for anything these days, between google, pinterest, and forums, you can pretty much find instructions for anything. I used a simple code and photobucket to make my own buttons: I think my new Tw...

The Man that Saved My Life

A Story About an Amazing Doctor: On Saturday I went to the Peoria Great Strides Walk. I've done the walk in 2009, 2012, 2013 and now 2014! I love the Peoria Walk site, It has a great route right along a very beautiful & prominent street. One side of the street are architecturally amazing and grand homes and on the other side is the river. What a gorgeous route to walk! This year Peoria added our Team Sign to the Route! CF2 (well CF (squared)) but the 2 always ends up next to it (even in my blog). It's hard to type CF and 2 to the second power! It technically stands for "Courageoulsy Fighting Cystic Fibrosis" I was beyond thrilled when I saw the official sign on the route! Pic on right: Mom and I & the Team Sign! Andrew and Sarah came too though :-) Peoria's Walk is always really friendly too. There was a photobooth, UniqueTwist (makes balloon creations), a Drum core and little girl with CF's dance class performed! I also got to see one of my two ...
