“My thoughts and feelings about my thoughts and feelings” Roy Hintsa
That would be a bag of rice! I remember it being in my hand yesterday and couldn’t find it today when I needed it.
Apparently I’m 1 Tired Mother! Lol. Thought I would share since it’s been a while since I posted last.
I have a few posts in cue including the cookie recipe I promised some of you, so keep checking back.
Night night. Zzzzzzzz
This is a photo of my family taken in June of this year by the incredible Rita Kravchuk. If there is one piece of advice I can give to new parents, its take lots and lots of pictures and videos of your children & family. Time passes in the blink of an eye and if you don’t capture the moments they are gone forever and you can’t go back in time.
Wait, Stop! Don’t call 911! I was shot today, but it’s not what you think, it was with cortisone. This is the second time I’ve had cortisone shots in my fingers. The last time I had them done was January 30th of this year and the shots were done to my left pinky and middle finger and my right middle finger. I must admit, they hurt like a SOB, but honestly, my fingers were so swollen, hot and painful because of the Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) that I was willing to try anything. It was so bad that I was actually getting trigger finger (also known as stenosing tenosynovitis (stuh-NO-sing ten-o-sin-o-VIE-tis)).
Yep, that’s me, then (Sept 2011) and weighing in at a whopping 200 lbs, and now (June 2014) at 130 lbs with the birthday boy Luke who just turned 1 this week. I remember exactly how I felt that day in September – terrible! It was my best friend’s wedding and I had tipped the scales and was now at my heaviest. It should have been a joyous occasion, standing in the wedding party, but all I could think of was how fat I felt and looked. This picture is a rarity. It took me forever to find one from that period of my life, because I never let anyone take any pictures of me, hence the poor quality.
Just a quick post before heading off to bed.
Over the past few weeks I’ve been connecting with old and new friends and it’s made me realize how lucky I am to have these people in my life.
Live in the now and take the time to appreciate and spend time with your friends and loved ones while you can. Don’t take them for granted. Tell them how much they mean to you every day.
Take time to enjoy the simple things in life like nature and its beauty. There are so many things to be thankful for if we take the time to pause, breathe and appreciate.
Be Well!
