Date Weekend

Note: Start reading at "The Why"

What Happened:
This weekend I had a date and an outing with a friend from graduate school. My friend from graduate school came Friday. We always have so much fun!! I woke up sooo excited to prepare for the weekend! I worked my normal full day at work. What felt like the longest day ever!!!! When I finally got off it was time to drive the 35 min to get home and hope I beat my friend to my house. I didn't...lol but it was soooooo ok! Upon seeing him I had the biggest smile on my face. Although my legs hurt he was able to make me laugh and almost forget that my life was not all screwed up at the moment. It was so refreshing!!! Not to mention he is well rounded, highly educated, has a great head on his shoulders, hard worker and he is very handsome! We had a blast eating Mexican food and I even had a drink and it was delicious!!!! Like really delicious! Then we talked and laughed all night. He left just in time for class. I woke up excited and ready for my two classes and then prepare for my date. By this time my body was not really feeling awesome. I was exhausted and my legs hurt to walk. Why not cancel? Well, this was my first date in almost a year and honestly I needed it to get back in the swing of things, to make my life feel some sort of normalcy again. I met my date at Red Robin (endless fries so I'm cool). We talked well.....he talked. A Lot of talking, without me, lol. This was more of a monologue. An extended version of a very long boring monologue. I was not having fun at all. During one of his monologues I timed him....NINE MINUTES of talking and he never once asked me anything. So dinner finally ended and it was time to watch the movie. We went to see Guardians of the Galaxy 2. The movie was actually really good and yes he even talked through some of the movie. Lol amazing I know!!! So the movie and those "comfortable" seats....No! Just no!!! It was excruciating trying to sit in those seats for 2 hours and not move. I was fidgeting like a crack head on his first 24 hours of remission. It was not fun, not at all.  My legs were hurting, my feet were numb, my butt was hurting so incredibly bad
and it was just so very uncomfortable. I know for sure on this dating journey I will not be going on any more dates until I am healed. Whew!!! I survived though and the date was over. I could finally go home!!!!! Praise God and sweet baby Jesus!!

How I felt:
Friday was good!!
Saturday morning was good but Saturday night with the not so hot date and the not so comfortable movie seats was......not so good!

OMG! OMG! OMG! 5-1

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: Today was an ok day. I worked all day chasing after clients. I taught one fitness class that uses equipment that I have to grip and hit. The pain usually comes when I hit the equipment together so I have learned to hold my left pointer finger up instead of allowing it to grip with the others. The pain is a radiating vibrating pain that goes down my finger. It is excruciating, but I have learned to adapt. In this class we also sit on the ground which is becoming harder and harder. I now have severe pain in my hips and back when sitting down. But I made it through the day! The class! and now its time for another class that requires more equipment, heavy equipment like big tractor tires and  such. Well I loaded all 4 tires, plus heavy weighted bars and various other equipment. Got to the location feeling ok so I moved the 30 plus chairs and 8 tables that needed to be moved. Luckily my friend, my right hand woman in class showed up and h...

A Village

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Today I ask 6 friends to pray and fast with me for a healing. The bible says when two or more are together that God is there. I need God to be here. I need Him to heal my body. I am at a loss and my body is shutting down quickly. Every step is like fire, hot sand and blisters but my bones get so cold. I hate walking. But I will not quit. I have thought about a wheelchair or crutches just to have relief. Some relief would be so nice right now. But I can walk so I will. My work load has increased drastically and it is so painful.  I think about calling in every morning. But bills wont get paid that way. I can do it. I just have to will myself. My support group will help. I am so thankful that I have friends that will be there an pray with and for me. How I felt: hopeful.

It's Valentine's Day

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: It's Valentine's Day!!!! A special day, right? Well not so much for the single and shut in the house. Blah! I was off work all of 3 hours and I was bored! After texting my colleges (The Dream Team) and knowing I wouldn't be there for 2 days I began to just figure it out myself. So I opened my google search engine. (I know I know the worst thing you can do) What causes extreme and prolonged muscle cramps? The possibilities were so vague and lets just be real I wasn't  going to read all of them. So...gift time. Yes I am single but my dad gets me a gift for Valentine's Day every year. Outside of one year this is the only one I've ever gotten. This one is special because it's from my daddy. The one man I know will never let me down, who will always be there no matter what. Who other than God, is the only man that loves me unconditionally, my daddy! I checked my phone and nothing. Hmmm, so I text my sibling ...
