Turn Around

       So its been about two months now that my blood pressure  has been at a normal range. Things are looking pretty good,well in terms of that situation........still have the problem of no kidney yet, and still on four days a week of dialysis. But things could be worse.......... God has some plan, but Im really not sure what it is, and I dont know why he does such things to people sometimes.
           I was at McDonalds the other morning picking up some breakfast after dialysis and this homeless man stops me, he noticed my chest cath. He asked if I was on dialysis, I was a little uneasy, a random homeless person asking such information. I replied with a quick "yes" he tells me hes on dialysis too and that he has a chest cath. "Sucks doesn't it?" I was a little in shock at finding a random person with the same situation, non the less a homeless person. "Yes it does suck, I guess thats how life goes sometimes eh?" " Ya, God Bless" he replied and we went on our ways. 
Just goes to show someone could always have it worse than you. I could never imagine being homeless and have a failing kidney. I mean how do you keep that chest cath safe from harm? Of clean and sanitary? Life always surprises me.
 Cupcake biz is up and down.  The word of mouth process takes a lil time I guess. But the people that I have done jobs for have all loved what I have done. :) I think I'm becoming immune to cupcakes lol, I used to not be able to look at them without having one, now I just taste a piece to make sure I did not somehow screw up the recipe lol. I like baking and cooking but sometimes Im not even in the mood to eat haha. I just enjoy making and creating and having other people enjoy. 



Whats for fun these days? I'v kinda lost my "Mars attacks" fun side lol. Before my marriage and this recent health situation relapse  I used to hang out with lots of local band people, being the amateur photographer, just having fun being part of something. My friends of the former band Storytold just recently had a reunion show. Finally! lol I had been dreaming of that, like alot of people haha. As always they were amazing, and as usual they made their Lil Mars Bars feel special haha. I mean they made sure that I was going to be able to make it. Everyone as usual called to make sure I would have a way to get there and Loren (the lead singer) told me he has a ticket for me, haha sadly he told me to late cause I had already bought one, I was not going to miss that show. Anyway so I made the show obviously, even with me being a lil scared to be in the crowd of people with my chest cath. Heck I got up in the very front of the stage as usual, screamed my lungs out and totally had a great time, and had fellow fan friends guarding to make sure I would get bumped by some other crazy person haha. That was the most fun I had a long time since this relapse. 
           
                So I know I have not written in a really long time. Times gotten away from me, with having to recently move. Took forever to find a place that was not a scam. Plus there really has not been anything to say. I mean how many people want to hear about me going to Starbucks and dialysis over and over? haha Thankfully my health has not worsen so I have had nothing to report. As long as I stay positive and stay within my liquid restrictions and watch my diet I think I'll be okay for the time being. Lots of people have more problems because they do not follow the doctors orders. I look at people at dialysis and somehow they are in worse condition than what I saw them in a year ago. I guess people give up hope and just give in to temptations. 
I just keep telling myself its all for a reason and its all gonna get better. 

Just gotta rock on and be my crazy lil beautiful bubbly self :P
