I’m so sick of feeling sick
Almost every day I feel run down. No matter how much sleep I get, I can’t seem to feel rested. I feel drained all the time, my brain is so foggy I have officially quit joking about being an air head. My mood swings from depressed to anxious- every time I start to think I…

This coming June I’m taking my first ever paid vacation from work
Since I’ll have a full week off, I have decided that the month of June I am going to try to do one post a day and come up with either 1 post or one article to submit to a magazine or blog every day through June. Coming up with ideas shouldn’t be too difficult.…

Just went in for my thyroid ultrasound and follow up
It was my first ultrasound since my surgery 2 years ago. I found out the cysts on my right side (only side I have left) haven’t grown, so I don’t need to have another scan for about 2 years but I had my lab work done and they had to up my dose. It seems…

How do you find your true passion?
From the time I was 7 until I was 18, I wanted to be a professional vocalist. I didn’t even care about the genre- I wanted to sing. I have been classicly trained. I have also taken dance and I’m trained in acting. After I hit 18 (and started smoking), I realized I just wasn’t…

I’m turning 30 in just under a month
I try to always set New Years Resolutions. I do it mostly for fun but this January is a milestone for me. I’ll be turning 30. I know 30 doesn’t seem old to many people, but I thought I’d be further along than I am. I feel like I’m right back at 19. I’m working…

I introduced the EDS, This is about my life with OCD
As far back as I can remember, I struggled with everything needing to be perfect. My first memory related, was when I was in early elementary school. I had to have my work perfect. By perfect, I mean it had to look absolutely perfect- if I looped a “B,” I had to erase but if…

Random thoughts
It’s been cold for the past week. Along with the cold, my arthritis has flared. I normally ignore the flare ups and go on with my life but my spine was inflamed and I pulled a muscle. Today is in the 50s-60s and it’s my first day back down to a pain level of about…
