Weekend Craziness

Sorry everyone!

Wow, what a crazy weekend or week I should say! First off, I want to apologize for my blog disappearing for 3-4 days! This will never happen again. I've solved this issue (and even switched companies from where I got my domain), so hopefully this won't ever be an issue again. It was beyond scary when I clicked "view my blog" and the link wasn't working. I have never taken classes on website management (hosting, designing, etc). I'm 100% self taught. It's crazy how much you can learn on websites, YouTube, and good ol' books from the library. However, when something shows an error (like my domain expiring without my knowledge) I tend to freak out a bit. I mean this blog, as much as I love it, I have put just as much work into it. Almost 3 years of my life's rambling are on this lil blog! So whew, glad I got it all sorted out and I'm so sorry to anyone who tried view it and was confused!

So It's back for good. I promise. Okay, in regards to other "craziness" from this weekend. Some of the craziness was good, like people visiting us. The crazy part was the fact my plans completely got changed last minute. I was supposed to visit with my family this weekend, but that got messed up. Which I was bummed about at first... which is why I'm very much looking forward to Christmas and having some time to spend with family & friends! This may be the most up to date picture I have of my family! It was taken 2 years ago (before I even started dating Andrew). Think this year we are in need of an updated one? I do!

But since we were free this weekend, we had a lot of other people visit and had a lot of fun. Friday, Andrew's Mom came to visit. My Uncles visited Saturday and they delivered the mattress I purchased on Black Friday for a super good price! I sooooo excited to get a new mattress, the one had was beyond old and it was affecting my joints (arthritis problems) and my sleep. Now, thanks to them hauling my new beautiful bed here, I have slept like a baby ever since!

Sunday, I was bummed I was unable to go to the Dream Factory Party (read about in post below). However, I've had allergy type problems for the last week or so. I really don't think it is a cold, but that Christmas Party would have kids with compromised immune systems there (cancer, cf, etc). No way, would I go even with the sniffles. So bummed I missed out, but I know all the kids had an amazing time! I really hope I can go next year!

And for the rest of my week: STUDYING! That's right I may have aced my final in the first Real state Class, but I have one more final (in my 2nd class) on Thursday. Then shortly after I'm taking the IL licensing exam. So lots to study! So excited for this career to start (in Jan of 2015). My struggle with finding a career that I will love and will allow me to manage my CF has been difficult. READ about it RIGHT HERE!

And again sorry everyone!

First blog: Hello

My first Blog: A little About Me I'm not sure why I have decided to start a blog, however, here I am.  I have honestly thought about writing about my life for years, but have always chickened out. I have finally decided to share the experiences life has thrown at me. The biggest reason I have been asked to blog by people is because of everything I have dealt with medically. I have Cystic Fibrosis and a few other medical problems...This is probably the best reason why I should blog. I can relate to others who are dealing with medical problems, however,my CF is also why I did not want to write this blog. CF can be embarssing and annoying sometimes... but it  has helped define who I have become to be as a person. Therefore, (yes, even though I want it cured) I don't hate having CF. Let me start off with some basic info and statements. I'm 26 yrs old and have dealt with CF all my life. In this blog you will hear recent stories (good, bad, embarassing); a...

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 ...

I'm Back and Ready to Blog

I'm Back from Vacation and Ready to Blog! Yep, I'm officially home! I was gone for the last 5 days. That is probably the longest gap in my blogs in months. I was super busy before I left on Wednesday!! I had class(30 mins away), job interview, and errands to run before heading to my uncles.   I stayed the night there, since we headed out at 4am for the airport on Thursday. We arrived in Buffalo, NY and checked into our hotel! Then we headed off to Canada to view the falls from the Canadian side. We spent the whole day on there, walking, taking pics, doing different attractions. We went on the Maid of the Mist (on the boat you feel like your right under the falls) and we got soaked, it was such phenomenal views of the falls though (especially the horseshoe)! Then Friday we drove to Lockport, NY and took a tour of the Erie Canal (35-lock Canal). It was really neat hearing about the history and traveling up and down the canal. Being right up close to the gates, it felt a ...
