MFH!!

Migraine from Hell or Motherfu***** Headache!! lol

OMG, it hit last night badly. I tried everything even a hit off something, lol and that did not even work! Wowzers, talk about pain. It just now, finally went away.

So, since I know why they are happening again, it's time to stop.

The hubz and I went on a non-gluten, no cow dairy, no soy, no soda way of eating. I lost 20 pounds, no migraines, no intestinal problems, and more energy. Well we got lazy in the new year and went back to eating like most people. lol I/we gained back our weight, migraines came back, bad intestinal problems resurfaced, and the fatigue hit.

So, I am proof eating the 'right' way helps.

No supplements, soy, pills, low fat, low calorie items work people!! Once you stop them the weight and issues all some back. Sugar substitutes are poison for our bodies. Think about it, these things are all changed, processed. Do you really think our bodies were made for this?

People have laughed at us, but I am the one laughing as I watch them do their 'diets'...see no weight loss there. lol

Our bodies were made to eat food, real food. We need fats, we need proteins. But, the 'diet' industry wants money so you hear how gr8 it is for you. Go ahead, do it, then go off and eat good foods, real foods and see what happens. Weight comes back, and so you pay more for the 'diet' crap.

Having a healthy diet, not 'dieting' is the way to go.

Now, knowing what it had done for me, we are starting back up on the paleo way of eating again. I cannot wait to lose my weight and become healthier again.

Peace Out!

It so figures!! lol

After all the stress to go to the awards...my girls did not want to go!! WTH lmao

Shelby just didn't want to go as she was packed with homework and Ashley was still not feeling well from her sickies this week. So, after my shower and getting ready...we never went!! At least I smell better now!! :P

Hubz and I went shopping since he had gotten off work early for it, we decided not to waste the evening. Got all of our Saturday grocery things out of the way. So it was not a total loss.

So, today I will watch all my dvr'd shows, maybe make some new jewelry for my shop, and just rest.

TGIF
Blessings, Tracy

Strange dayz...

I just cannot seem to get going these days. I prefer being alone, and do not want to be bothered at all. I want quiet! My stress level is so off right now. I have no patience with anyone or anything. I hate myself most days because of this. There are so many things I could be doing, but just do not have the 'mental' energy to get up and do anything.

My girls are getting academic awards tonight, and i am still sitting here in my pj's. I need to get up and get in the shower and get ready. Part of me hates going due to the fact I feel like an embarrassment to my kids. They do not make me feel this way, it is all me. I really do not know why I feel like this. I have never cared much what others think of me, yet being in a wheelchair changed that. Being 6' tall I always walked into a room with a purpose, now I want to be invisible. Again, that is so not me.

Rog said if I don't feel well then it is ok if I do not go. The problem is I feel ok, I just do not want to go. But, knowing how bad my girls want me to go, I will. I really hate these feelings as I am a pretty sttrong woman and hate feeling ...wow I cannot even explain how I feel or a word for it. Pathetic maybe!! lmao I hate feeling pathetic.

OI Vay, sometimes life can stink. lmao Yet, I am still glad to be alive!!

Whatcha gonna do?

So today I feel ok. It seems to come in spurts lately. Feel good for a couple days, then BAM the yucks creep back in. Is it my MS progressing, is it the colds going around? Not sure, so just taking it as it comes at me.

Got my guitar out and i am once again going to try and play. I had put it away as my hands are not strong enough anymore to push on strings. I figure even the strumming is ok for me, so back to trying again. I played in college and loved it, so going to get a couple books and try and play again. Guitar is the best sound in the world.

I am loving my new van. I have even gotten out a couple of times on my own. It was so very cool. I can only drive on days i feel really good and when my legs are strong. We are going to look into hand controls as well. I really do not want to lose my driving ability. I love driving!! It gives me a sense of freedom that has been taken away from me.

Well, time to get ready to go to the grocery store with the hubz. That is if i can get him moving!!

Ah life....

I am finally over the sickies. Feeling so much better right now. Hope it stays this way.

Got the van and i loooove it. I purchased a carfax for it, and there are no 'bad' things about it.

Now, I need to get my van sold. I am going to miss it too. I loved that van! I got new plates for it yesterday and purchased a carfax for those interested in it. I think it will go fast. (hoping) It is in gr8 condition and leather, CD, a/c, removable back seats, seats 7, captain seating. No dents. I take care of my cars.

I am going to get it detailed, carpets shampooed, etc.

Dexter, my new puppy, is so cute. He is the best company for me when i am alone. He thinks he is so tough. I love when he barks at people. It's like, dude they could kick ya like a football!! lol But, he's smart... when he barks he hides behind me!!

Blessings!!

Sooooooooooo, I am finally feeling better MS wise…then BAM my son comes home sick and guess who got it!? Me yes me. I normally do not get the colds/flu due to the fact my immune system is over-active. But since I was down ms wise, the cold snuck in. Bastard!! lol
But, on a brighter side…I got my new wheelchair.

I love it.
Then wouldn’t you know it, there are no ramps that will work with my van. To be on tha back on a lift, it would be to heavy for my cars chassis. For a side ramp that is automatic it costs 7000.00, more than my car is worth. So needless to say I had a meltdown.
My dad and hubz talked and instead of putting back the money from the iBot fiasco, I am getting a new van. Well not new, but handicap accessible.
It’s a 2005 Chrysler Towne and Country Touring. I so wanted to not have to drive a van anymore, but we do what we gotta do!! lol It has leather interior and the guy is putting in a
DVD player for me. My kids will now have to all sit in the back. This way they not kill each other on long trips! lol The best part is no financing!! He gave me a wicked deal~~phew!!




I am hoping that this will be the end of my wheel-chariot issues! lol It is a long time coming.
I progressed a bit more during my last flare up, so this van is coming at a good time for me. The gentleman is also going to bring it to me. So that is a plus!!
Blessings to all!!

Will it ever end??

I have been MS sick for a week or so now. I am so tired of being sick and tired. My body is numb, I have the inner shakes going on and the outer leg shakes. I get the dizzies if I sit for too long, and the serious back pain pain if I lie down for too long. I'm thinking hanging by my feet upside down might work for me!! lmao

But, I'm thinking it is my bodies way of saying slow the frick down. Chill for a bit and rest and sleep. The dizzies are just no-med freebies. lol

The bright side...my 4 mo old puppy Dexter 'Killer' Morgan Radford:

He is the sweetest thing. He is so smart and such a good boy. He is a chihuahua mix of some sort. I swore I would never have a 'YIP' dog! lol I swore off 'lap' dogs...but oops, now I have one. He is so tiny. I call him my mini-pit. I swear his mommy must have had relations with a red nose pit. lol Can you imagine!? I got him from Halfway to Home Dog Rescue. How could anyone not want this baby? Oh well, their loss is my gain. He is such a cuddler too.

Anywho, getting a tad dizzy again, so I am off.
I joined that twitter place thing, name mztracy. Original eh! lol

Blessings to all..
