You just THINK you know me

There are a handful of people who know most or all of these things about me, but I know that many of you don't.  I also know that you can be perceived one way due to how you write and the way you come across, so I thought I'd share a few "You might not know" facts with you.

You might not know:

  • I'm an only child.
  • I'm terrified of clowns.
  • I have a slight phobia of needles.
  • I am diabetic.
  • I have 5 tattoos.
  • I am the youngest cousin on both sides of my family.
  • I seem to be quite extroverted, but in reality I'm very introverted and prefer one on one or alone time over being with many people for long.
  • I don't get mad easily.
  • It's hard for me to show emotion.
  • When I get mad, I deep clean.  Seriously...come get your car detailed.
  • I can't concentrate on any one thing for long.  If I'm not busy enough, nothing gets done well.
  • I hate having to talk on the phone.  H-A-T-E it.
  • I'm terrified to succeed at certain things and terrified to fail at others. (I know - I make perfect sense!)
  • I'm worried that due to health reasons, I will never have another biological child.
  • I'm scared to HAVE another biological child.
  • Smart cars give me terrible road rage.
  • If you don't want me to remember something really obscure in 10 years, don't tell me about it.  I'm likely to remember what you don't want me to.
  • I'm 1/8 Spanish, 1/4 Mexican, and the rest is "American-ese" according to my Grandma.
  • I have a fascination with serial killers because I want to know the "why" behind it all.
  • Hoarders both fascinate and terrify me.
I'm sure there are more things, but I need to save SOMETHING for another post, right?  ;)

The Best and Worst Night Ever

Image
We left for our church's annual Memorial Day cookout around 5:30 on Sunday afternoon, May 29th.  I was having a few strange pains when we got there, but it was over 100 degrees so I thought that I was possibly getting dehydrated again since I'd just gotten out of the hospital late the night before.  We spent about an hour there before I told Jeff that I just didn't feel well and thought we should go home.  I was continuing to have the pains, however now going to the bathroom wasn't helping them get any better. We got home around 7:30 and I drank some water and laid on my left side.  That way, if I were having false labor, the contractions would stop, and hopefully I'd curb any dehydration that was starting on me again.  Laying down helped things for about an hour and a half.  Around 9:15, I told Jeff I thought we ought to call Dr. S., just in case he wanted me to be observed or something.  After talking with him, we decided to force fluids and wait o...

I Blame Wisconsin

Image
Okay, being that I haven't lived in Wisconsin in over 3 years, I can't really say that I can place blame there.  I got a letter from my primary care doctor's office this week and was told that my bad cholesterol is high.  I am doing my best to not beat myself up but to not foo foo it away as nothing.  I only need to bring it down about 20 points, so I know it could be way worse.  I know that the first thing everyone thinks of is fatty foods, dairy overload or something similar but after reading up on it, I found out that stress can cause it to rise too.  Apparently when highly stressed, the body doesn't break down foods as well and can cause cholesterol issues. So, in addition to changes in my diet, I'm going to attempt to "de-stress" my life. I know that being stress free is impossible as there are both good and bad stressors we face daily, but there are things I can change to make things less stressful for me. Things like: Asking for help Gett...
