Adrenaline dump

Yesterday was a roller coaster. The morning started like any other Fire Dept coffee, Peter Thomas Roth patches, shilajit honey sticks. My niece came over early since she was going with me and Dusty to my appointments. I made them cinnamon rolls for breakfast, then took a shower and got ready. We left to go to my physical therapy appointment. They sat in their employee break room at their table so they could watch a…

Without a cure

Originally posted 2017-04-25 23:43:23. As a diabetic you end up dealing with things that are embarrassing to even show family members.  I have debated talking about this because it truly is embarrassing. I have found that it isn’t just associated with diabetes. But I felt if I talked about it there may be something someone has found helpful or someone else may have found something I post helpful. So here goes. Boils, cysts, furuncles, acne….I…

Emotional forgiveness

Originally posted 2018-04-04 11:36:32. Have you ever seen a movie or video that was fictional but touched you so deeply internally? One that you felt on so many levels? There were so many parts of the movie that you personally felt like it was you they portrayed in the movie? Even if it wasn’t exactly aligned with your own life? For me, that is this movie. I cry tears of pain, anger, love, happiness and…

My dream … what I remember is us going somewhere out to eat or having fun somewhere. You know how it is when you have a dream but can’t exactly remember all parts just bits and pieces. Anyway, while everyone was inside I go outside for some reason and…

Healthy drink

There is a place local to me called Krew Nutrition. They carry healthy drinks that have collagen in them. The owner, get this, is 18 years old. Good for her. She’s a go-getter. I purchased every flavor she offered. We have been drinking one each morning. I think it’s a franchise, but don’t hold me to it. Anyway, today’s selection was Watermelon Sugar. I think James took Rocket Fuel with him. I just thought I’d…

I don’t know how to get past that day. The fact my abuser and family are that close to my daughter, IT HURTS. But the feeling this morning was different. Is it because this is the first Christmas without…

Routines

Morning routines are one of those things some of us do like muscle memory. One of those things for me is 100 percent, without fail, coffee. I can faithfully say I am probably addicted to coffee, if that’s possible. On days that I have to postpone having a cup it’s like I feel naked, not whole. Everyone has a vice and well this is mine. What’s your morning routine? I added some shilajit Himalayan Honey…
