Quarantining, online Hell, it's not even summer yet, at least I know they are safe. it's Lupus awareness month...



So how is everyone doing with this whole quarantine situation? 
for me, it's just been a normal time.
I don't go anywhere anyways so I was okay with it Until.........
My kids couldn't go to school anymore... LOL
Don't get me wrong I love and adore my children, it's all the work that they had to do. 
I have a 9th grader and an 11th grader and as much as I wanted to be a school teacher when I was young it all changed. This is not for me ...

First off the online schooling was difficult because we only had a laptop, No sorry a Chromebook and because the school blocked everything on it.
That made working 10x's harder than needed.  

Second is our wifi situation it's not the greatest, we just have what the apt has in a package so it's not like we get to choose our carrier. 

Third, my oldest son also had to work from home and it's not an easy thing to do working for Discover Card.

On my kitchen counter are two huge monitors and a tower. 
(I need my own house LOL.) 
 So him doing that takes all our crappy bandwidth so my kids can't do homework until later in the evening or in many cases very early in the morning. 
This is okay with me because I have insomnia so I'm up already.

4th, The house has to be completely quiet from 11-8 pm which is crazy.
I mean I sleep then so not to bad. 
I am so exhausted lately I could sleep for days and days. 

So let's just say that schoolwork has not been easy.
some teachers understand and some have been real jerks about it .. I mean you have to do what you gotta do, 
 AmiRight?

So Lonnie has been going to work every day so far so we have been blessed in that regard. 
I didn't realize how much I would miss my KJ he is doing great in the Army   

So the month of May is coming to an end and it's been one to remember. 
I missed the world lupus day which was mother's day and POP day which was the 15th (Pop stands for Put On Purple. )You are supposed to show your support that way. Lonnie did do a $25 donation on the 1st of the month so I will have a Lupus mask coming in the mail whenever.

I am so sorry about the makeup tutorials.
 I know I have promised to get them up soon but I just haven't had the energy to wear any makeup. Last time was my Drs appt in March.

I have more blood tests to take and a new cardiology appointment set up soon to figure out why my blood pressure is so high and my BPM is at least 135 when I am resting, why my chest hurts so bad and the damn headaches I keep getting. 
I should probably schedule a breast exam. 

Well, I hope that everyone has been safe during this whole time.
                         Stay strong and keep fighting

Life 2020-2021 Getting back into this.

  So as the whole world has struggled with the pandemic it's an understatement as to how I have been, my kids and, my husband. I am not going to lie and say that it didn't affect me in an immense way  I went down a severe hole into depression and, let's just say my mental health was a nightmare  I wanted to die and, just didn't have the strength to do it myself so I would lay in bed and, starve myself hoping I wouldn't wake up the next time. The real struggle came at night because of my insomnia I would lay in my bed and, think about all the things I couldn't do or wanted but, I just didn't have the strength to, I would think about how much better my husband would have been marrying someone else how I have ruined his life how mean I was to him and didn't even think or want to be. How he is carrying on with his life and me, I'm just better off dead because that is exactly how I feel like a person suffering from all this crap.  My kids don't seem t...

Let's talk showers

  Let's talk showers  No, not the kind that falls from the sky when it rains. No, not meteors, but regular showers people take to keep clean. A regular person is in the shower up to 5-10 mins maybe 15 at the most. Well for someone with Lupus, MS and Fibromyalgia it's so much longer. For instance, it took me almost an hour to shower the other day. Why is this you ask? Well, I can barely stand on my own, and do things like lift my hands to shampoo my hair without being so exhausted I have to sit down.  So it begins, the clock ticking away. *10 mins gone * sitting down. Once I finally can I stand back up and commence the ritual of the shower  but wait, after *10 more mins* I need to take a breath before I pass out (literally) it takes sitting down and breathing slowly to make it not feel like my heart is going to leap out of my chest.  I look at my handy dandy Fossil smartwatch and it says my BPM is 140 which I believe.  I try to slow down my breathing, a...
