Weekend Reunion

This week has been an interesting one for sure!

I decided since I am staying at home now during the days I might as well get to work on my many to do lists that have been in progress for some time. Now I think I got ahead of myself here and started on too many of them all at once.

Hubbs and I have a fairly large music collection of over 10,000 songs (not counting Christmas Collection of all of our religious churchy music) that we have been trying to maintain by having labels for every song and putting them in one location that we can both have access to on our computers, but also have backed up in case or theft or something else. Since previously my attempts vanished in the robbery of our car the week we moved, (car got broken into in Walmart Parking lot and my computer was stolen. The back-up files were only readable by my computer... OOPS! So we lost all wedding photos and everything!) we have been trying to get everything recovered that we can. Life hasn't been as pleasing to us in regards to getting stuff done that we want to do, let alone the things we need to do, like the constant heaping mountain of laundry that never seems to be done, or the towerous landscape of dishes that magically appear and fill every empty space in our kitchen.

We recently purchased an external hard drive that connects to the Wi-Fi at our house, so I have slowly been going through each cd, one-by-one copying them over to my computer so I can transfer them over to the hard drive and making sure I-tunes doesn't take over again.

Next project was to be the perfect house wife and have the house always clean, food on the table when the husband came home and still be able to manage my time for crafts and things that need to get done like making appointments, shopping and so on... That hasn't happened once!

Reality is, I haven't been feeling all that well so among my many attempts to TRY getting on top of everything I am fighting pain and fatigue.

I wanted to start working out everyday as well to make myself lose weight and start feeling a little more satisfied with me and fitting into my clothes again. I have been so focused on daily grind stuff for the last two years, that I have kind of forgotten about me and what I need to do to stay healthy and in shape. I also don't have the money to be going out and buying a whole new wardrobe because my body decided to go rogue and gain a bunch of weight. Oh Yeah! Forgot to add in one note, my body, decided it wanted to go into menopause so everything I knew about handling my body has gone right out the window and I am on fire like ALL THE TIME! It's ridiculous. Seriously, I want to live in an ice bath most all day because these hot flashes don't hardly ever go away. It's like the furnace broke and went to 1,000 degrees all the sudden and stays there. So if ever you see me out and about and I look miserable, it's just the flashes talking.

I have started blogging again and I am so glad about this because I really do have a lot going on in this head of mine and by doing this, I finally can get my deep thoughts out and feel more complete with everything. I like to have time to myself to just get deep. Thinking about the cosmos and our future after we die and what others beyond the veil are doing. Is pops watching me, is he proud? Is he guiding me to be the person I want to be or is he too busy doing what he needs to be doing? What is my purpose on this earth? If I have gone through so many life challenges that most people don't experience till in their 50's or older, what else is in store for me? If I am going through these challenges so young, then I guess I can expect harder times to come in my older adult years?

While I was in school busting tail trying to get smart and all, I literally was doing homework 24/7. NO JOKE! Then I figured after we graduated and moved, I could start being an adult and enjoy my evenings. Specially since there isn't any kids to run around. Hubbs would be busy studying and I figured I would have nothing to do. WRONG AGAIN! I have so much to do and so little time to do it, I just don't have a demanding job anymore, that's it.

How do these house wives do it? How do they get everything done, stay happy, have great relationships and money to enjoy? Well I guess I should find out! I want to have some money to play around with. Though it wouldn't really be throwing anything away. I would use it to take a class I have been wanting to take for a while. The class is based in St. George and is 4 days long. The pre-class portion is done online and the whole program is going to cost $2,000. This class focuses on the body's connection to the spirit and working together to clear blockages in the body that are harmful and causing negative outcomes. The program teaches you how to find these blockages and clearing them out by connecting two energy sources, the client and administrator (me). To some this sounds like a hoax I know, I was there when I first heard about it. Then out of curiosity I had it done to me and light bulbs started coming on. It makes so much sense and it's all natural. The body has to be open and willing for it to happen for the change to take place. Just like with Chiropractic. Everything we are learning with Hubbs in school is that the body wants to heal itself. Sometimes it just needs a little help and that is what everyone is trying to figure out. How do we help the body with this natural process. Some want to speed it up or put a band-aid on it and ignore it temporarily (medication), others want natural healing that eliminates bit by bit and has a better outcome.

Making a statement like that sounds bias and one sided. I just want to state that I use pills. I hate them, but I do it out of desperation for immediate cover, then I use the natural to do the rest. (example , when I know I am going to have people over and we are needing to be upbeat and lively, but I have a splitting headache, I will take a small dose of a pill so that my suffering is more of an in between. Then doing the natural stuff helps take the suffering away more.) Advanced stuff for someone who isn't afraid to think about it for a bit.

Anyway, I have a line-up planned for tutorials. I am excited to get crafting again and sharing more details with everyone. I have done so many things I wish I had posted because it was great. But hopefully everything will be exploding on the blogs soon. Keep and eye open for next posts. This weekend will be slow because we are going to visit some college friends that we haven't seen in a few years for a wedding! YAY!

Enjoy friends!
