Take it easy.

It's been a while since I've written a blog, I'm slacking. I always start a journal determined to write every day or quite often. I manage for a week or so, then lose interest. The longest I have managed to keep up with a journal was a year. Which was quite some time ago. It's not that I don't have anything to write about, I just can't seem to find the words to express myself in the manner of which I would like to.

My last entry was about my mom. The health issue I was speaking of was the possibility of cervical cancer. She had had a biopsy a couple days prior to that entry, and we had to wait two weeks to know the results. Well, I guess they found cancer cells, but thankfully the surgery to remove them is only a minor one. So I am relieved. Just the thought of cancer is a scary a thing. Especially the thought of my mom having it, and having to go through the battle. I've ran through so many worst case scenarios in my mind, all of which would be incredibly unbearable if they ever came true.

Now that we know it's not so serious, I can breath a little easier and my anxiety has calmed down. I'll have my hands full for a couple of weeks while my mom is recuperating, but that's quite all right with me. I owe her after all the surgeries she's helped me through. Which I've been lucky to not have to go through for 10 years now. Hopefully I can keep it up. =P

I will try to keep up with this. Even though all I really do is blab and ramble a lot. But I need it seeing as I had a slight break down last week from holding every little thing in. Old habits die hard, what can I say? Anyway, now that I've got a load off my mind, I am going to go in my room, read, and relax.

Adios!

Thanks, California Weather.

The cold everyone seems to be getting has kindly migrated it's way over to me. Quite suddenly, too. Saturday night I was out having drinks with my best friend for her birthday, early Sunday morning, boom, sore throat accompanied by a stuffed up nose.

Within a blink of an eye my plans for the week have been tarnished. Goodbye plans, hello bed. Don't get me wrong, I love my bed with all of my little beating heart, just not as much when I've been confined to it for three days.

Thanks to my crappy immune system this cold isn't going to let up unless I rest and do all the necessary things one is supposed to do to rid a cold. Which consist of: Drinking lots of fluids (water, hot tea), sleep my days away, and eat soup. I'm sure the jack in the box, pepsi, and pizza I had today weren't exactly helpful. I couldn't help it, each were just so good. What I could taste of them. I discovered that due to my cold screwing up my taste buds, I can get through a whole bag of Flaming Hot Cheetos. Normally I am a wimp and can only eat a couple of them before needing to chug a bunch of water to cool my burning mouth. One small upside, I guess.

The only REAL upside would be this cold kicking rocks ASAP. My poor little nose is raw and as red as Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer from constantly blowing it. I get up for too long my stomach starts churning, my head spins and I am over this whole ordeal.  Sadly all I can do is let this menace of a cold play it's course. In the meantime, I will keep my fingers AND toes crossed that it migrates out of my system sooner rather than later.
