My six year old is asking for her own computer! Geesh! At six years old, I can't believe she expects me to start looking at acer desktops for her. She uses mine now to play games but every time she uses mine, it ends up crashing so maybe it's in my best interests to set up a computer in a public family spot but at six? Kids sure know their technology at an early age.
Read more...I'm trying to figure out why my kids' mp3 headphones seem to go extinct in this house so quickly. Cat chews up one pair, another pair stops working, can't find one set, left one set at somebody's house - ack! I need a great sale to find out where are ipod nano headphones on sale. I also like skimming the clearance racks in stores so I can stuff their stockings at the holidays with them. Yes, I am already thinking about Christmas. With school starting next week, Christmas will come riding up sooner rather than later!
Read more...I've heard that some side effects people see with thyroid disease is reduced interest in sex. I am wondering if that is hormone related or if it has more to do with the fact that some of us just don't feel well and don't like the way we look if we've been packing on the pounds due to our thyroid.
I didn't notice any decrease in interest myself personally, but my husband loves me no matter how I look and showed it so while "I" didn't like the way I looked, he loved every part of me - big or small. I wasn't running out looking for burlesque pasties for sale but a sexy nightie, and stuff, wasn't out of the question.
I wonder how many people lack of interest is because most doctors just don't know how to treat thyroid disease! If they'd open their ears and start to listen to people who have figured out how to manage their thyroid disease, maybe more people would be doing better.
In three days, I will start my diet. I really hate to call it a diet because it really isn't. It's just a healthy way of eating that enables you to drop the pounds. I decided to start it when my kids go back to school because with them home all day now, it'd be harder to follow the first 17 days of it while preparing three meals a day for them. With them gone during the day, I'll be more apt not to graze on their food.
Read more...Summer will be over soon! I am so excited. I am not a summer person at all. I love cooler temperatures.
Now, that's not to say I like winter. I don't. Perhaps if I had some winter toys, like a Polaris with Polaris Ranger Accessories, it'd be different, but I am not a cold weather person. I like it cool enough to throw on a light jacket or long-sleeve shirt and enjoy the day.
I am really loving these cooler mornings! Right now, the kids are all sleeping still, I have my glass of hot Organic India Tulsi tea and am just soaking up the quiet.
In a little more than a week, I am going to finish up with the weight loss. This is my last step to my final goal!! After getting the correct thyroid medication, I lost about 20 pounds. Unfortunately, the rest of the weight was being stubborn. I followed The 17 Day Diet: A Doctor's Plan Designed for Rapid Results
So, when school starts, I will start my final step in my weight loss goal. My kids will go to school and mom will go to work - literally, I am back to working from home and working on my health/weight! I turn 40 in October and I REFUSE to turn 40 out of shape. It won't happen. It can't happen. I'll be crying enough on my 40th birthday as it is:)
I have updated thyroid labs to post but I need to dig them out so I'll do that later. I'm doing great. My doctor is awesome in treating my thyroid. I've kept the weight off that I lost earlier this year. I've started making jewelry. I've made ear rings out of guitar picks and bracelets for girls' birthday gifts for my kids to bring when they're invited to birthday parties. I can't believe I actually have jewelry making tools. I've never been handy. I think it is because I've not had the opportunity so now I'm learning. Last week, I even learned how to change the flapper and handle on the toilet all on myself. Boy was I proud of myself!
Read more...My husband has had major pain through his wrist and elbow in one arm. We think it is from the repetitiveness from his job and from playing guitar. One doctor said he needed surgery. Another said just a cortisone shot. One sent him for physical rehabilitation. Another didn't know what was wrong with it. It'd be nice to get the same answer!
