Catch up

I had a wonderful year tutoring. I had five students. This summer I have five students again. How blessed I am to have them. They are a wonderful group of girls and I teach them all at the same time in a group in a round table. All different ages. Its so fun. I'm still working on gaining health. Not where I want to be but I'm improving. My children are both in relationships with nice kids. I had a wonderful ten days in California with friends this last week. I have a girl renting my basement apartment. This all sounds great. Its not my doing but its God blessing me. I've had a very difficult last three years. The difficult times were blessings to me as well as the good days. I'm stronger because of it. A evolved being. This is a eternal progression of myself. Also one of my family and friends.
I do see much trouble in the world at this time. I'm constantly doing all I can but then I;m happy with what I've been given. I have goals to work for and to enjoy the little pleasures along the way of this journey.

I will check back now and then

I need to start journaling on another site. I will be back now and then. I'm sure this won't be the end of my adversities. This is what I'm on earth for. To be tried and tested.

Now I wake up in the morning. I wonder what is this. This feeling of health. I can arise and get going. Its a miracle. Why do some miracles take time. They just do. I was praying for health and this time I promised to do good with it.

Had a great day.

I went to a Relief Society conference today. We had four mini classes in the morning. I was late so I went to one class on Adult children called Love them, love yourself. Wonderful teacher. Then I helped make little hats for preemie babies in the hospitals. Also did some coloring and cutting for teaching materials for children. Not sure where its going. After that we had lunch. It was so good. I was able to visit with lots of friends and meet new friends. I was one of the last ones to leave plus I helped put up chairs. Honestly, my health has returned. Those quiet moments I'm full of gratitude.

Cautiously optimistic

I'm feeling well today. I now completely understand what wellness feels like. Today I did more to get my SRV ready to sell.My SUV is actually worth more then the Lexus. But the Lexus is meant for me. Its a wonderful car. I look at it and I think of how my sister in law loves me. Also I can see how God knows my needs. It will always be a reminder. Tonight I went to the Temple with my ward. Then I went to a party afterwards. Lots of wonderful pies there. I tasted several of them. Afterwards I wasn't tired like I usually am. i was one of the last ones to leave. Now I'm home in bed.. I wanted to document my good news. I have been praying to feel better for a long time. Others were praying for me. The timing was right. I'm more grateful now since I've had a tough time with the post treatment.I don't want to take my health for granted again. Its a gift. I'm planning on making a trip to Dallas to see my doctor for a follow up. Maybe in April. Its a shame he is far from Phoenix. Just thankful I know him and can get to him. A few weeks ago, I had the desire to serve a Mission if I became healthy. Now I feel I can. So that will be my goal. It will happen. It will be a teaching the Gospel Mission, not a humanitarian mission. Although some humanitarian work is always needed along with teaching at some missions. For example all the Missionaries in Haiti are helping the quake victims during the relief efforts.

No all over pain.
No trouble breathing
No fatigue
No brain fog

Wide awake

I haven't been a morning person for years. That is mainly due to health reasons. this morning I'm awake. I'm feeling fairly good. Its a problem since its not :normal" for me. I'll have to make a longer list of things I can accomplish in a day. Nice.
The only thing I'm suffering from seems to be allergies. Its common this time of year. the orange blossoms will be out soon. Feb through March is the time of year most everyone has allergie symptoms.

feeling so much better

Had a great day. This week I gained a student. She is in 8th grade. she is at a difficult school. Wasn't sure I could help her, but I did. today I found out the problems with my car. Then got my hair colored, when I received an email from a friend about another friend that needs to earn money by doing hair. I thought to myself.... I do have a little money now to pass to someone else. Such a wonderful feeling to know I can help. I was then invited to see River Dance with my friends. Had so much fun. I'm beginning to feel well. Also beginning to have faith in God to provide things I need. Its been a difficult year. I've continued to be as positive as possible. Little by little things are working out.
How thankful I am for my problems. They have strengthened me and my children. I've had to put all my heart and trust in my Heavenly Father. I've seen miracles. Its been the worse year but the best year.

I'm very hopeful these supplements I got from my doctor in Texas are doing the job. My mind is definitely clearer. Now my energy is coming back. The pain problem seems to be lifting. I'm cautiously optimistic.

continue on

I feel like Im continuing to doctor myself. Almost at the end of taking one of the bottles of pills for parasites. I still have not seen a parasite. As I have read about them, its clear to me they exist. They exist in industrialized nations. We are a little slow to open our eyes to this fact. Its interesting to learn of health problems they create.

I seem to be feeling a bit better. I'm able to function better each day. Its a slow process. One thing I have noticed is the bad all over pain is going away. (Did you know parasites can cause this?) Most people don't know this.

I'm sleeping much better. Going to sleep earlier and sleeping through the night.

My mind is working better. Although some may disagree.ha

My son is dating this girl. Has been for some time. We may have a wedding to plan. Although the brides mom does most of it. But if he gets married, my daughter won't be far behind. Thees kids of mine are so competitive. : )

good year ahead

Seating here at Francis and Sons car wash having my Pathfinder detailed. I'm preparing it to sell. Sad. I love my pathfinder. But the Lexus is beautiful. Although I'm not a luxury sedan type, I'm adjusting to the new look. Its suiting me more each day. I've already been changing my fashion style to more of a classic look. Even though I always have been more practical, I do love experimenting with the latest fashion trends.

I don't think C is my student anymore. He is having a difficult time in Math. I really need more communication with his teacher, parents, to get this worked out.

I have been skyping with J. in Hollywood. She is auditioning for sweeps season. It works out great. I know this is going to be a good year.

After the visit with my Texas doctor, he told me I needed parasite killers. I was stunned. I told myself I;d do what ever he told me. So after two weeks of this, I'm losing weight.

MY Dog was throwing up last night. lovely. i'M not going to the meeting. I'm beat. and the dog doesn't look good either.i think he is on his last months of life. Its normal. He is old. Poor thing. He is a darling long haired Chihuahua. He is black and brown.

can't sleep

It usually helps to write my thoughts down for sleep to come. I think its because i have an early morning political meeting. i'm not a morning person. This is because of my health issues. It takes a while for me to get up and around. I'm taking a new detox regiment of parasite cleanse and candida supplements. My Texas doctor told me I had both. The parasites meaning small microscopic ones. I believe I may have gotten them when I had low immune response during tx. The best part of my doctor visit is he informed me I am retaining water....so my weight gain was not fat. The body holds water when the cells are filled with toxic waste from the parasites. The body doesn't want to delute itself. its a defense mechanism. As soon as the parasites are killed the water weight shall go away. I'm looking forward to this.
I feel like I have seen lots of blessings this last month. The biggest one was when my sister in law gave me her car. Its a really nice car. A Lexus. Now to fix and sell my SUV. This has taken a lot of pressure off of me.


I lost one of my students. It is sad although i feel something good will come about for me. I still have the other three. I know with prayer something good will come my way. I just was to help others and happen to get payed for it. that is my wish.

Texas

I'm in Texas. My friend gave me a plane ticket to come out here to see my old and reliable doctor out here. Another good friend lives here so I'm staying here. She'll take me to see my doctor tomorrow. So much excitement, I can't sleep. My sister-in=law gave me her extra car on Sat. A Lexus. Its so nice, I'm still in shock over this generous gift. Its older then my SUV but in mint condition. Drives so smooth. Beautiful car. Now I can fix mine and sell it. God does answer prayers in his time not ours. These gifts mean so much more to me now at this time. My heart is full.
Tomorrow I look forward to my doctors diagnoses.
