What day is it?

HUMP day!! Hope everyone is having a wonderful day. So yesterday, Tuesday, I had a clinic visit with the doctor. They say everything is looking and sounding great with my ticker. They remind me every time I go in that my immune system is extremely low right now and to slow down. So I nod my head, like yes, okay I understand, but inside I'm like come on people its been over 5 years and I feel amazing why can't I be doing everything I want to be doing. Like going out to dinner anywhere with a bunch of people, go to the movies with a lot of people around or even work. I wish my body would start to feel weird when I got myself in a situation that was too germy for me, if that makes sense. Anyways, my blood work came back great, except my prograf troft level was still high, 18. They want me between 12-16, so they lowered my dosage.  Next Monday I have another biopsy and echocardiogram, gotta love those days...NOT! But ya gotta do what ya gotta do!
Okay, enough about all that crap. My best friend Scottie and I went driving up to Park City on Monday and ate at Main Street Pizza and Noodles. Great GF pizza there FYI. We were chatting up a storm as usual, but this time it was more adult stuff, like how we are getting older and how we see the world differently than we did back when we were kids. Becoming an adult isn't easy its hard work, all these decisions you have to make that might change your future. I am enjoying the journey I am on though. There are so many challenges out in this world that can tear us down, but it is how we react to these challenges that makes who we are. Next time you are faced with a challenge big or small think about both sides of how you might react. Now go out there with your head held high because you got this, you soo GOT THIS!!! :)


Steve and Wrigley even say so...

quarantine = self reflection

I was talking with my lovely mother on Facetime this morning and she suggested to post on my blog. I look at my blog and noticed I haven't posted since November! So here you go, during this crazy time I am no longer working and my day to day tasks have shifted drastically. I am sure all of you know what is going on all over the world. I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. I have been in this situation before. I was taken out of the game due to my heart, my life was soccer. Now my life was going to work and heading off to soccer practice, but COVID-19 has taken that away. I am reflecting on my response when my heart wasn't doing that well. At first I was frustrated and asking why? Now I am doing the same thing. WHY? Because I am HUMAN I know!!! This time I caught myself and decided to choose another route.  My alternate route has been getting outside every darn day, no matter the weather and enjoying the beauties of this earth, sun, clouds, rain, breeze, nature, the ...

boise

This past week was a wake up for our Wrigley. We had a dog trainer come over to our house and teach us how to break his habits of aggression towards other dogs and people. We learned how Wrigley communicates and when to give affections and praise and when not to. Now that we have the proper tools rather than the wrong ones. We are excited to help train Wrigley's behaviors into more friendly ones. This process is going to be long, but just like our surrogate process we are going to dive in and handle whatever is to come. With the surrogacy I have spoken to my parent's neighbor about being our attorney and she agreed to represent us.  This weekend we headed up to Boise. Steve and I have always liked the idea of Boise, so we went to go and checked out some places. We got these bikes at the hotel we were staying at for FREE and rode around downtown Boise. We had a blast riding around to all the places. On the way home, we stopped to see Idaho State women's soccer play. They be...

New Day, New Chapter, New....????

After the other days SHOCKing experience, I had to go into the clinic today to have my device interrogated.   Basically find out why I got shocked…. Was it warranted?? My device is set to SHOCK me if my heart gets beating too fast, like 180bpm or higher. Which I guess I excreted myself too much yesterday. This is a little bit upsetting, I was hardly up the trail and I got shocked. How am I supposed to do anything physical and not get shocked? Think about trying to exercise but also having to worry about a horse kicking you in the chest at any time.   Leaving the clinic I was pretty bummed… Is my heart just getting worse? Anyway, I went to work at straws and about an hour into work the clinic was calling me. I didn’t want to answer because I had a feeling my INR would be too low again and I would have to be admitted to the hospital. Anyway, I answered and Dr. Kia was on the line. He said “I heard you left upset from the clinic today?” I figured he was about to give me a pe...
