Exhausted!
Comments off
What a tiring day! I did laundry and I haven’t done laundry in like a month, so I had a lot to do. I lost count of how many trips up and down the stairs I made! Plus while I was doing laundry I played RB and I made it through several songs that have been kicking my butt, so it was a productive day as far as I am concerned! I just want to go to sleep! Last night I was asleep by about 11pm! My headache that I had got bad and while I was watching tv I started to fall asleep on the couch so when the movie (The Wicker Man- 1973- interesting movie) was over I went to bed and fell asleep unusually fast. Usually it takes over an hour for me to fall asleep, but not last night! It sucks that I had a headache but I got sleep. Unfortunately I woke up at 6am to go to the bathroom, but I fell back asleep for a couple of hours.
Got to talk to my parents today. They were at my grandma’s house, they go there every Sunday for dinner. So I got to talk to her too, and my niece. Nice to talk to family. Got an email from a friend that I haven’t heard from in awhile, it was nice to hear from her too. And my friend in Mass. called today too. Big day for me, see I put out positive energy and it comes back. This is positive reinforcement to keep trying to change my thinking!
Well, need sleep…

Well, I finally finished my bracelet/pendant. It is now a pendant that I put on a rope. I would post a pic of it, but it doesn’t look all that good, so its just for me! When I get something else done that looks good, I will post it, but I have to find a job before I can do any more unless someone special orders something. I was able to super glue the two pieces together and then saw off the end piece with the second hole (for the bracelet) so it now has one hole (as a pendant). The dremel was a great purchase! It cuts through silver! But man the silver got hot quick, I dropped the piece once because it heated up so quick! It took awhile, but it cut through it! Then I used it to sand it. I still need to try to use it to make the S on my ring look more like an S and less like a 5, but I am afraid of ruining the ring!
I have a headache today. It started off little, but it is getting worse since I worked out. I started with an hour of RB and then went upstairs and rode the bike for 20 mins. I did RB first because it gets my heart rate up so the whole time on my bike will be at my target heart rate. But it seems that my efforts today have led to a headache. No big deal, I took some tylenol. I have been good at keeping up with the workouts. I rode my bike 5 days this week and 2 days last week (that’s when I started) so I have only not ridden my bike 2 days since I started.
My friend has been working on my logo, I found a great web site with symbols on it that we are trying to use. They are Energy Magic symbols, which I like, and when we have something I will post it. I found them after my therapy session on Wed. In the session, my therapist said that I am a miracle and that there is a difference between living the miracle and surviving. I have been surviving and now I want to live the miracle. It’s going to take some work, because I have a belief system that I need to change, the belief that I am alone. I say it all the time, and even though its not really true I make it true because I believe it. Very much like The Secret. Positive thinking and all that. I have read many books and they all say the same thing, you have to change the way you think to make a change in your life. I am tired of feeling alone so I need to change how I think about being alone and why I am alone. I don’t mean to put that negativity out there, but I do and I know I do because I have had a few friends mention it to me. Time to do something about it. I am a miracle. All of us are miracles, but those of us who are brain tumor survivors really are miracles! Anyway, the symbols I have found represent strength and miracles and hopefully I will have something to show you next week.

Medication Problems

I just learned the hard way that when you are on prescribed anti depressants you really need to stick to a set schedule. I found the Lexapro was working for me, but when I got back from Vegas I stopped taking it at the same time every day and even missed a dose or […]
