Gross..


I had a bit of "fun" on Monday night. I had to do a Saliva test for my Dr.

They gave me this following kit and told me to chew the thing that looks like a wet wipe (incidentally, it was very dry!) for 30-40 seconds or untill I no longer could chew. Sounds fun right?

So I chewed the wet wipe, and tried not to be totally grossed out. Which didn't work, especially when the thing started disinigrating in my mouth! What the mess!! I frantically opened the little capsule to spit it out and put it in there and voila. What was in there?

The actual cylinder I was supposed to chew.

Yes, I chewed the wrong thing.

No the wet wipe thing wasn't supposed to be in there and the nurse gave me faulty information. Thanks for that btw.

After using an entire bottle of water to rinse the now disinigrated pieces of wet wipe from my teeth and other various mouth parts, I tried again.

It was gross. I ended up gagging and spit it out. Don't know if it was 40 seconds, don't care. I think I had enough spit on it!

Oh the fun joys of medical tests..

In other news I went back to the Lab for the 4'th time in less than two weeks and gave my 12'th vial of blood.

For someone who HATES needles and blood as much as I do, its been rather interesting. I am proud to say the last two times I have not passed out, cried or gotten really woozy. GO ME!

I will however admit that last night when she had the iv on my arm and blood started going through it and I felt it.. *SHIVERS* that about sent me over the edge.

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
