Weird Things You Do Alone - Day 1

I really wish I could tell myself that I live an exciting life.  But, we all know that would be a giant lie. I'm really quite boring.

When all alone, I tend not to do much:

  • I sit and watch daytime television
  • I drink Diet Coke
  • Eat too much
  • Clean my house
  • Find excuses not to clean my house
  • Do laundry
  • Take naps when I've been working the morning
  • I belch and fart - out loud, even
  • If there is music on and I'm standing up I will start shaking my butt and moving it around - in an attempt to dance
  • If I am in the middle of getting undressed or dressed and start doing something else, I forget to finish getting dressed - and in the summer or spring the front door may be open
  • In the winter, I turn on the heat, after realizing that it is freezing cold inside the house - usually it gets to 65 or 64 before I realize
  • I talk to myself - a lot actually, more than I should
  • Sometimes, I don't brush my hair - or my teeth - until late, late in the afternoon or evening.  So gross.
  • I pass judgment on people; whether it be someone on the Price is Right or an idiot on the afternoon news - again, out loud
  • I run errands
  • When out and about, I tend to spend too much money on things I don't need
  • I sing along with the radio, in the car, and I dance, too - - I do a mean Adele, Lady GaGa and Jon Bon Jovi
  • I do incredibly stupid and klutzy things
  • And I'm human - that's pretty much as exciting as it gets

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...
