I wish I could tell you this week is going better

But it's not really...I didn't want to get out of bed for anything today...but I did because I had to vote and I had to go to the hospital and get my iron Iv...tomorrow I am hoping to go to the hospital to get some blood so that I don't feel like I am dying with no strength...

But on the plus side I thought I would tell you some fun things that happened recently...

On Monday I was getting ready to go to the hospital to get my blood drawn and I was scrapping the frost off my car with an American Eagle Rewards card because I don't have a scrapper...I know that's bad when you live in the mid-west...I lost mine somewhere...anywho I was doing that and all the sudden my friend Jon W appears to help me scrap my car off with a REAL scrapper...I sort of thought it was funny that he appeared out of what seemed like no where but he was probably dropping his kids off at school or something and then passed my house...so that was a blessing...

And then when I was at the hospital I was walking in behind this guy and I thought I think that's my Uncle...well really he'd be like my great uncle because he's my grandma's brother...but I knew it was him after he spelled out his name for the receptionist lady...and then I sat down so that my back was facing him because I didn't know if he knew me...but I could hear him making friends with some guy sitting by him which is so like my grandma's family...then he got his blood drawn and he came out and asked if I was me and I said yeah and he told me his name which I thought was adorable...I told dad later I should have gotten up and hugged him and said I know who you are...so then he caught up a little on what was going on with the family and well I loved it...

Also I am like a step away from completing my Master's application...I just have to find the energy to do it...and then send it all in...and well I'm not really nervous about it anymore...I have had a lot of people tell me I will get in and I will do great so that feels good but I'm sort of at a place where I figure I'm not really going to do anything that will change if I get in or not...and I feel like this is what I should be doing so that makes me feel good too...

And well even though I am super worn out and cranky and I just want to sleep all day I am looking forward to heading to a friends open house this weekend with my mom and my best friend...I'm excited about the things that are happening in his life...I always love to see my friends doing well...and I know they would say the same about me...cause I can tell they hate it when I'm not feeling good and they can't do anything about it...sorry you all have to deal with that...and thank you for loving me through it

Scars

Image
I said quite some time ago that I would post a picture of my newest scar...and then I forgot...when I remembered I thought why not just do a post about my scars...I know people who have tattoos and show those off...but I don't have those instead my story is etched on my body in a different way...so here it is...and in some of them I tried to circle scars that I thought were hard to see but it may end up being easier to see them without my attempt at helping... So these first two are obviously of my stomach...the scar with the one by it is hard to see but that scar is over 20 inches long...it wraps around my left side...you can see the end of it in the picture below...that is from my first transplant from when I was 8...the scar with the 2 by it is from my most recent transplant...which as you can tell is much smaller and is still a little red because it's still healing...the three scars circled under my belly button in the bright blue are from dialysis when I was 21 mon

A few quick notes before I get into what I really want to talk about

1st - I know I have said it before but gosh I love living in a small town...this week so many people did cool things for us...like some anonymous person paying for the repair work we had done on mom's car which included new tires...or Venier's fixing dad's pocket watch for free...that's like the fourth free thing they have done for us...ya'll are too good to us... 2nd - My iron IV on Wednesday went ok I felt a little sickish afterwards but they did give it to me kind of fast...and Thursday I was sick part of the day too...but no big deal...and my hemoglobin went up...when it was drawn on Monday it was 6.6 then when it was drawn on Wednesday it was 7.3...so that was pretty great...also on a health note a have a few people who are trying to get tested right now as possible donors so we will see where that goes... 3rd - I had a great time on Thursday watching the rain fall and people pass the house while I was sitting on the front porch with my dad first and then m

A little way in advance preview

I am not sure why I am doing this but my cousin Lisa tagged me in hers. Usually I ignore these things but I figure maybe if I talk about it and put part of it out there it will motivate me to work on it some more.  What is the working title of your book or project? Well hopefully it will be a book about my life. And the title would be the same as my blog probably Stories of a Real Life Wonder Woman Where did the idea come from for your book or project? People keep telling me to write a book about my life...they have been all my life. And I want to publish a book so I am slowly working on this. What genre does it fall under, if any? It would be an autobiography. If applicable, whom would you choose to play your characters in a movie? Um well it would be people playing me and my family and friends. But I have always said Keira Knightly would be me in a movie. What is a one-sentence synopsis of your manuscript or project? I am not sure how to answer this. It's my life
