Day 13 - Somewhere You Would Like to Move or Visit

OK - this post isn't fair at all - because I want to visit EVERYWHERE I can before this life is over. There is so many places and so little time. I love to travel and there is absolutely no where I would not want to go.

After a little taste of Europe - there is so many places I want to go on that continent: Italy, specifically Venice - Germany - Ireland - Scotland - I would love to return to Paris - Austria - - love, love, love the idea of going to Europe
I would love to rail Canada - from one end to the other
I would love to spend some time in South America - Costa Rica, Panama
Australia and New Zealand - wanna see them
Carribean - Hawaii - - yeah, the beach is where I wanna go.
As far as the U.S. of A. - - I want to go to New Orleans, San Antonio is a dream, I would love to drive New England and go to all the little states clustered in the north east - in fact, I think if I could, I would get in a motorhome, spend eight weeks or so driving and visiting each state and visiting every "largest ball of twine" or other odd sights on my route and camping at the KOA's and such along the way. I wanna go back to Florida and take Ted to Epcot - I think he would love it.

As far as moving somewhere - I am home where I am. My family is here. That's all that matters to me - where they are is where I wanna be.

CoCo's Journey - Answers!! Finally!!!

Today I finally got answers!!! I do not have Cirrhosis!!! I am Pre-Cirrhotic. Very close to that precipice but still not falling over the edge and falling into a place that I cannot get out of. I had seen my gastric bypass doctor a while ago - and was given the wrong information. I think he was looking at the headline and had not read the story. It's something I'm good at, too. My doctor explained that when I was overweight, the fat in my body was damaging my liver. Then I had gastric bypass and that should have helped my fatty liver. But, then I wasn't able to absorb the calories, so I became malnourished. My liver was not getting the proteins I needed in order to supply my body with the proper nourishment. Every organ you have needs protein, and it starts in the liver. So - the malnourishment started to affect my liver. Leading to the state I'm in now. The thing I need to work on is getting off the diu...

CoCo's Journey - Purpura?? What is that??

Defnition: Purpura - noun - the appearance of purple or red spots on the skin and mucous membranes caused by bleeding underneath the skin due to small blood vessels bursting. These spots can range in size from small dots (petechiae) to larger patches (ecchymosis or bruises) and may indicate underlying health issues. Sadly, when people see my arms, I get many responses and questions. From how are you doing? How are you feeling? OR what is up with your arms??? My BFF literally said, what the hell is wrong with your arms?? Like I had been out in the parking lot bruising myself up intentionally. And we had just talked about it a couple of weeks before when she saw it. Are they pretty?? No. But, they truly are the way I know the status of my health. Between seeing this stuff show up on my arms and my overall general state of strength lets me know if I should be concerned. Right now, my arms are actually look...

Day 9 - If You Could Have Any Job in the World, What Would it Be?

I was thinking and thinking and thinking about this. I have had a very long career at a job I love. I don't always love it, but, for the most part - it's been an awesome job and career. I always tell people that I want to work at an airline, because I want to have the benefit of flying wherever and whenever I wanted - so if I had thought about it years ago - instead of law enforcement, I probably should have found a job in the travel industry - - but, that didn't work. And, I fully intend one day to have those flight benefits. But, I am thinking of what I would have loved my career to be. If I could have chosen the path of my life, I would have chosen to be a stay-at-home mom. I can't think of a more fulfilling career than to have been more available to my kids and been there more for them. My kids were raised by a mom who worked away from the home and spent a lot of time away from home. I worked shift work, so there were days they never...
