I can't believe that it has been so long since my last post. So much has happened since then.
I ended up getting my Disability and Social Security the first time around! That is very rare, especially someone as young as I am. I am very thankful for it! I can now spend time doing things that I enjoy and not worry about endangering other people and their children in the process!
Last Thursday evening, September 22, 2011, my boyfriend, Jacob and I got a new 3 month old black pug! She was almost completely potty trained! Yay for us! We got lucky with that one. We named her Nico! She is so cute and cuddly! I feel like a pet mommy now! She follows us everywhere. It is so nice to have somebody else in the house with me, other than Jacob. We moved the first weekend in July! That was so stressful, but very worth it! We love our new place and we are allowed pets here! I am so thankful for our new little friend.
I just realized that this switched fonts on me without me doing anything. oh, well. I have learned to make cards and am loving it to death! I have learned to not spend all day watching videos on techniques and reading blogs on them all the time and start to implement them myself. I am definitely having fun doing that! I have learned so much and absolutely love it!
I now want to start a fund or some sort of foundation thing for Epilepsy! So many people are affected by it and so many people are uneducated about it and freak out when they see someone have a seizure! I know that even though I have talked to Jacob's family about it over the last almost 6 years and they've seen many and I've talked to friends about it, they still always freak out and just make things worse for me. Everyone always seems to think that they need to be in your face to make things better and that just makes me feel like I'm being suffocated. I tried to talk to a friend about how I felt and some new things that I had found out and all she told me was that I needed to find some sort of support group. I read that you should talk to your friends about them and that sort of thing and that's all I was doing. I was really hurt! I can't believe she treated me that way! I digress. I have started ordering on sale items that I can make and sell to help start gathering money for this cause! I am excited to do this. I just hope things work out. I might start out doing it for a foundation already set up and in the mean time, set mine up. That would be neat!
Anywho. I guess that's enough for now. Not that anyone's reading this anyways. But, my puppy finally laid down for a nap, and I think I will try and catch a few zzz's! All of my med's make me tired and dizzy. The dizziness has gotten better, but, I still find myself tired all the time. I'm still dizzy all the time, but at least I'm not falling over like I was before. Thank God for small favors! Ok, I said I was going to go and now I will. Have a good one!
