Never thought I would do that ever
Be the first to commentAt 17 I thought I had my profession thought out and had passion burning behind it. I wanted to be a fashion designer and I wanted it now. But things got in the way and my life took over. Years later and medical school later I stumbled across the school I wanted to go to years ago and contacted them for more information. They sent me out a pamphlet and called me up. And while staring at the pamphlet and talking to them I realized something. The dreams of youth have changed when in adulthood. I love being fashionable and making myself these clothes but making it for thousands just...

Save your pity
Comments (7)You can't tolerate fat people?
Going through people's "opinion" can be very disgusting especially when their opinions are projecting their own body issues. I go to school for Medical assisting and there is hardly a topic we do not cover.
With the way the medical field is changing we are learning new and exciting reasons why people might be over weight in the first place. It goes far beyond bad eating habits and we found out a lot of it has to do with hormone embalances.
Like for one PCOS makes it almost impossible to lose weight. I have to work out twice a day to...

Mommy will Santa bring me a new brother?
Comments (1)I lost it, I had to go into my room and cry. It isn't the fact I don't want more... my body just hates me. I want more children so my son has siblings. I grew up with siblings and I love them very much.
But with every negative test and now being diagnosed with PCOS by symptoms alone... I am looking at more doctors visits for just further diagnosis and controlling. And with anyone who has PCOS the old mantra of "Don't worry if you keep trying you will get pregnant" makes you laugh. Because it is a very hard road to get pregnant. Luck plays a huge part of it and I don't have any. And also...

Feminists can sew!
Be the first to commentSince I have started sewing I have found a lot of interesting hostility and even awe. I have admitted to a few women in college that I can sew, cook, and clean. OMG I might as well tell them that I am anti women's rights and all around brainless the way they were looking at me.
Background of who I was before a mother. I was a women's rights leader in high school and constantly doing papers on the mistreatment of women not only in the U.S. but also in other countries.
I was the first person to challenge my government school when I saw things that were not right or when I felt...

Give me the chocolate and no one gets hurt!
Comments (1)Since figuring out that I have PCOS they have been keeping me on progesterone. I have had a period every month and the cyst burst hasn't happened in over two months where as I would have some sort of a burst once every two to three months.
Bad part is I am craving a ton of chocolate and my periods are killing me. Another bad part? Remembering to take those stupid pills! Oh I forgot how much I hated taking them when I was a young teen. Someone would literally have to shove them in my face to remind me to take them. And now it is just as bad because I am close to graduation and I hardly...

Inspired
Comments (7)I went shopping today and I will admit I am a big woman but I am not huge or morbidly obese. I am the in between where nothing fits and nothing looks good on me. I went shopping at four different stores and could not find anything. And when I could it was 30 dollars and over. It was sad, my best friend was depressed about it. But me on the other hand took it as a challenge.
I saw a few dresses I knew would look good on me but they were not my size. A woman told me "If you wanted to wear it you should lose some weight." That made me even more determined!
I am not unhealthy right now. At...

Black Friday? Psssh not this year!
Comments (5)I have never understood the whole buying as many presents as you possibly can so you can prove to your kids and family that you love them. Then you have to hear ungrateful kids screaming "I didn't want this!" and then catch your brother in law's girlfriend in the return isle and over hear her being snobby because it isn't from a "decent" store.
So this year my Black Friday is going to be spent at Jo-Ann Fabric. I am going to buy fabric and patterns. For the girls/ women they are getting cute aprons. For the boys they are getting blankets.
My son has been getting clothes, blankets,...

I need to smile
Comments (1)So I decided that Christmas is coming early. I am going to start doing Christmas projects and make Christmas presents during this month. My husband even agreed to help me put up Christmas decorations and lights this weekend.
Most people would look at me like I am crazy or stupid. But right now I just need it to come early. It isn't giving presents or the whole shopping thing that makes me feel better. It is the music, the lights, and the one month I can just breath and think that everything is going to be ok. It has been a hard couple of years for me and yet Christmas has always been that...
