Finally Friday!!!

Happy Friday loves!!!! I am so elated that it is finally Friday!! I woke up early this morning in a little bit of pain but ok. I signed up to give blood before this flare up started.  I am a bit nervous but I think it should be fine. I think I will eat an actual pork sausage to get my iron up.  I typically eat turkey sausage and this week I have been drinking a veggie shake but I want to make sure I can actually give today. I am anemic and sometimes my iron levels aren't high enough to give. I am about to cut my music up and jam  through the house. Talk to you guys later!!

    On my playlist: 
Rise Up- Andra Day (inspirational)
Big Girls- Salt and Pepper (girl power)
Flawless- Bey (no explanation needed)
Don't Be So hard On Yourself- Jess Glynne (a little reminder)
I Understand- Smokie Norful (a little gospel)
Fall for you- Lella James (a little love)

Giving blood went well and didn't hurt nearly as bad as I thought. My blood is so bougie! It only comes out when it wants. Today it had to be coerced and even then it was sooo incredibly slow it took me almost an hour. The nurse had to keep moving the needle and call for back up so i am sure I will have a nice bruise later today. I am feeling pretty good right now!!! I feel like I could run a mile or at least walk to the lunchroom without being out of breath 😊😊😊😉 and my voice is back!!!!!!! Its been gone since Tuesday morning!! I just want to talk  to everybody!!! On Friday typically I hang out with my co-workers and my guy friend. I really hope I still feel good this afternoon so I can do the normal Friday stuff. Fingers crossed

Sooooo my arm is bruised but fine. I got in a little QT with a special cutie (😂😂 yep I’m corny) and yes I’m laughing really hard at my joke. Ok ok back to it.... he washed my car, I lost the meds I keep in my car but I made it to dinner with my friend!! Much needed girls time! I know the ending was pretty anticlimactic but.... I’m sleepy. Pain level-4 and rising BUT overall today was a good day! Goodnight all

Bang Dem Sticks

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: I teach a class called Pound. It is amazing class with drumsticks that you bang together and lots of movement up and down, on the ground, back and forth. It is an amazing full body workout that I absolutely love. Today's class was horrible! Absolutely horrible! I went to hit my sticks together and my pointer finger radiated with pain. I dropped my sticks (which very rarely happens to me). I kept teaching but let go of my left stick. When we got down to the ground my hip area hurt so bad that I could barely sit, much less move side to side. I was in so much pain throughout the class. I managed to smile through the class but I just wanted to cry. But there are people to help get fit and no time or crying. My fingers also feel like I have blisters on them when I text or use them to type. And without texting you cant post to FB, IG, or talk to friends. I do all of the above a lot. Today was a very quiet day. How I felt: Scared. Wi...

The Longest Night

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Two days ago I quit taking my Neurontin cold turkey. I did not know that you were suppose to wen yourself off gradually........I went from taking 1500mg to nothing. Help me Holy Spirit, Sweet baby Jesus! I need the father, the son and the Holy Ghost!!! All three right now! I am sweating like I  have been working out, my head hurt soooo bad and I cant stop trembling. This post wont be long because my vision is a little blurry but I wanted to write to explain the way I feel right now. It is 3 am and I have been up since 11 pm trying to not throw up or call my mom crying. I googled reactions to coming off of  Neurontin and I match most of them. Oh dear LAWD!!!! If this is what it feels like to be on drugs and come off....Never get on them but if you do just stay on them (yes this feeling is that bad). Every time I close my eyes there are images of Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd and other characters from Looney Tunes but only half of th...

The Day My Life Changed

What Happened: It's funny they say you don't remember a traumatic event, well I remember! (Yes I know compared to some my event is not horrible but for me it has been) Feb 10th started off as a normal Friday. I went to work as normal, taught an aerobic class and went to Wal-Mart. After being in Wal-Mart approximately 20 min and standing in a VERY long line my calf muscles begin to burn on both legs. Of course when you workout as much as I do you go through shoes pretty frequently, with this in mind I figured that I just needed new shoes. The pain and burning got so bad...I took them off. After checking out I hobbled to my car. I took my passenger by Wendy's (which we did every Friday after class). At this point I still felt a little pain in my legs but overall just felt weird. With driving 3/4 mi from the drive through while eating a french fry (healthy right?😏) my jaw locked up. I was completely unable to move it. I tried to keep a calm face even though I was freake...
