CANCUN - Day Four!!!

I realize at this moment just how freaking old I am.  I hurt from head to toe.  My back hurts, my thighs hurt, my shoulders hurt, my feet hurt, my knees hurt.  AND I am extremely sunburnt and have mosquito bites from ankle to thigh.  Would I change it for anything, NOT ON YOUR LIFE!!!  We have had an awesome trip. 

Today, we slept in - after having to get up early for the last two days to go on adventures, we kept our last full day to just veg and chill.  We didn't sleep in too late, but, we got to breakfast around 9:00.  I do have to say, I am a little tired of buffet breakfast and I am thinking that room service is in order tomorrow. 

By 10:30 we were hanging out at the pool.  It was pretty breezy today and dark and cloudy.  It would blow and breeze, then it would clear up.  It would get sunny for a while then the clouds would come up.  We ate pizza and burgers for lunch at the grill and ordered drinks and shrimp cocktails by the pool.  I did water aerobics with a handsome Mexican man, his name was prounounced JAY-SHWAH.  It started out a little water aerobics and in fact, with the achy muscles I had, he was working our arms a bit too much - then it got wierd and we were all holding hands and going around in circles and holding up each other while we went around in circles again - then we all massaged each other.  Kind of a strange workout - but, I could at least say I tried to get some exercise yesterday.
We also played bingo at the pool side.

Ted and I went and played in the sea for about an hour and a half - just playing in the waves and of course I giggled and giggled.  We finished our jaunt  by going back to the pool and getting a drink at the swim up bar.  It was an awesome way to spend our day.  All we did was relax and I am literally exhausted - and I hurt from all the activity this week. 

We are finishing our day by going to a dinner put on by Corona for the winners - tomorrow we have to be packed and ready to go by 1:00.  It will be a long day - but, this trip has been nothing but fun from beginning to end and I really am grateful for the time I had here - grateful for winning this prize, grateful for the most wonderful hubby and traveling companion.  I hope my two kids are having even half the fun I did - because that would mean they are having a ball!!

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...
