  • Life changes

    I have been here not hiding, just life and things.  The boyfriend and I are still doing good and very happy.  His mom came to visit last weekend and I just adore her.  Of course her visit was actually to be a babysitter for me.  On the 15th, I had gastric bypass surgery. 

    At the begining of the year, I just had a feeling, and made an appointment to see a dr, and after talking to me, he picked up on some things I said, so he ordered and endescope.  Well after that, come to find out there is a partial blockage.  So then he orders an upper GI, ohh joy.  That resulted in more problems.  They submit to insurance, and I was approved.  So off to surgery I went.  Was not as bad as I thought, I was joking with the staff in recovery, since they had to keep me for a bit, due to my room not being ready.  That night I walked, did everything the staff expects of you, so much that I was out before noon the next day.

    Went home, and kinda remember the first few days, they gave me good drugs.  Last Friday, I finally got my drain removed, and have been going foward since then.  I am on a liquid diet until Friday, which kinda sucks, but I am doing a good job, sometimes I think my eyeballs are floating.  But yesterday I was able to walk pretty  much a mile, and we are going to walk every night so I can continue the weight loss.  The nice thing is Shannon is also working on losing weight as well. 

    So really that has been what is going on in my life right now.  I have one more week at home until I go back to work, so I can be fully recovered, but everyday is a better day for me.

  • Spring is coming

    Last night Shannon and I went out and bought a hedge trimmer and a chainsaw.  Reasons, destruction of the yard.  Actually we have a couple of shrubs in the front that needed to go, so they went, and the shrubs on the side needed a haircut.  So they got one.  Tomorrow is the rest of the front, pulling up stuff, re working next to the house and eventually maybe planting some rose bushes there for me.    I want to plant a garden but have some other things going on that might prevent me from being able to tend to it for a while, so that is on hold. 

    I will say though I lost the battle with the shrubs today pulling them to the back, as my arms are all scratched up, but hey it was great exercise.  I know I have not been on here much.  Mostly been resting and working on the house and well yeah playing the game.   I am trying a few different characters with WoW.  But as far as resting, I am also having some per say  medical issues so dealing with those and figuring out where we will go with it.  Once I know more I will write about it.   Other than that really not much going on, work is work, we are moving at the end of the month so getting ready for that.

  • More on the dark side

    So yeah I am now level 77 Blood Elf Mage.  I love her.  I have my dual specs, and my cold flying as of last night.  Buttt, I have started an alliance toon as well, different server, but it is fun.  Shannon pointed out to me that I like the cute fuzzy things of the game, and he is right.  My alliance one is a mage of course lol, but a dwarf.  She is cute.  Plus I yell at him everytime he kills a bunny.   I am getting better at doing things on my own.  Since the 3.3 release, I am actually participating in random dungeons as well.   So we are finding the balance in playing and life.  While kinda stuck inside due to weather, we did venture out some, the house is clean, laundry is done.  Next week is the fun trying to rework everything including exercise for at least 30 minutes.  He is going to do this with me.  

    I think with us it is the fact of doing things together that really helps.   These past few weeks between the holidays, and work and everything else, I have over drained myself and find myself tired all the friggin time.  I was able finally on Saturday to stay up all day and not take a nap.  Of course this week I find myself not feeling well at all, so tonight I will go see my dr., feels more like a sinus infection trying start.  Also hopefully next year I can really start on my other blog site.  I need to stick with that, especially to document my journey.   But other than that we are doing good.  The tree finally took a tumble last night. Not sure who did it, but my cat and one of his were running through the house like psycho's so maybe both, but it was enough to make the dog bark.  It comes down this weekend.   Then I have until the end of Feb to get the house ready for populace lol.  My very first one. I am excited.

  • I have entered the dark side

    Ok so just a short blog on here.  I have entered the dark side of online gaming.  I have an actual WoW account.  Is actually not bad, maybe easier because he is involved in teaching me and making sure it is fun for me.  We do not want to become addicts, nor does his friends who play, but nice to be part of a group, and something to kill time before bed at night.  So just have to play with it and just see how it goes.

  • Defecting? not really but.....

    x-posted on LJ.

    Ok sooo, the hunny had this domain name registered, it is digitalsheep.org.  Ok I loveeee sheep.  Not the bad way, I used to collect stuffed sheep and figurines when I was younger.  They are jus sooo cute.  So because he loves me soo much, he set it up for me as a blog.  So I have my very own blog site.  It is www.digitalsheep.org.  It is still a work in progress, some of the designs on the page need to be tweeked, but it is made with love and given to me from love.  So I will still read on here and randomly comment, but for the most part, will be over on DS, trying to blog about things, my life, things I feel and see.  For me writing is theraputic, that and well I enjoy it.  So I am here, but not here in a way.
