So I have not only been dealing with having a hard time losing weight but now I seem to have my face breaking out again. It is driving me insane and I have no idea what to do. It has been going on for almost 7 months now. I have tried using other acne treatments but they just do not seem to be doing the job and some have even made it worse. I have no idea what to do or try at this point. Does anyone have an tried and true things that have worked for them as adults? I’ve even tried changing hair and body washes as well and have had not success to this date.
Fridge
Well we finally know what is wrong with the fridge…. it makes us feel really dumb too since it has been almost 2 months of our water filter in the door has not worked. At first the repair people thought it was a valve issue on the back of the fridge not letting the water get past the main valve. Well replacing that did not seem to take care of it and it has been multiple tries of different things being tried and replaced for it finally to make sense. When the guy was here today he asked if the issue started after we had been gone for about a week. My answer was yes because it was fine when we left for camping but not when we got home. So he immediately knew it was that the belly where the water is held to get cold froze up while we were gone. All we have to do is defrost the fridge for 24 hours and viola it will be all better. Wish we had known this a couple of months ago!!!!
Friday 5: Bloom’s Taxonomy
What did you do this week? This week was just a normal week in our house. We are starting to get into the full routine of school and just coasting along. Once everything seems to be settled in I also plan on getting back on the gym routine as well.
Why did things turn out the way they did this week? They actually did well because we went with the flow and stuck to the plan!
How will this week’s events affect next week’s, both positively and negatively? Getting everything to go well on the plan just helps to make school life around here run more smoothly.
What were this week’s pivotal moments where things might have happened differently and changed everything? Nothing big really happened and that is totally okay with me!
How was your week? It was a great week and it looks like it’s going to be a great year.
New Plan
Joel and I went to our first class of Financial Peace University last night and are excited to get on a new money plan for us and our family. It is going to be a whole new way of thinking money wise but it has to be done. When we first got married we made a lot of bad choices because we had never taken the time to sit down and create a plan. since then we have come a long way but not as far as we could if we actually followed a tried and true plan. We have great credit and have never had to go to asset based lenders to make it through any times. But we no longer want to live like we are because if something were to happen we want to be ready. I am very excited about how this is all going to play out for us and I will keep you all updated as we go.
Friday 5: Nagging
What kinds of nagging injuries do you have? My Foot for sure!!! It has made my want to run to stay as only a want.
What long-procrastinated task is nagging at you lately? Finishing Maddie’s room.
In what way have you been a nag to someone else? Aren’t all wives in one way or another to their husbands?
Who in your life is a world-class nag? Seriously??? Not something I like to do so I’ll pass.
Nag is such an ugly word. What would be a nicer way to describe someone who exhibits nagging tendencies? Inquisitive might be a good way for some situations.
Just our norm
My friends and I often talk a whole different language sometimes and not one we do on purpose it’s more of just dumb blonde type of things. Though most of us are no longer or were never blondes it does run in our blood. It’s kind of like when my friend when my friend posted on facebook the other day that she was dealing with Blancpain and I knew right away that she was actually talking about Back pain but because like me her mind runs way faster than it should causing words to not always come out the way you mean them to. This is the story of my life and I’m so glad to have had friends from back in high school to be able to follow me along the way!
Very cool
I recently got an invitation to a friends baby shower that is coming up. This had to be one of the most unique baby shower invitationsI have ever received. The main reason being is that they not only had a neat card but the idea behind the shower. They asked that instead of shopping off from a registry because it was for a 3rd baby and the family had the main essential just were not planning for another baby to get some things restocked that you bring a gift that describes how you met the mom to be or something that explains your friendship with them. They also asked in lieu of cards to have you bring a favorite book and sign that. I think this is going to be a neat shower!!!
Friday 5: Fields
What is the field nearest your home like? It’s not very big as there use to be a building there but now it just sits empty in our neighborhood…but it’s nothing special.
How did you get into the professional field you’re in? If you’re not working, what field are you most likely to find yourself in some day? I hope to get back into the humanitarian field someday or even helping elderly people.
What’s the most interesting sight within your current field of vision? My son playin with his cars!
Where were you the last time you fielded questions from several people in turn? Almost everyday from the kids when they want to know about something LOL
How are you feeling right now? Pretty good but really need to get things done around here.
OOPS
The other day I got the strangest letter in the mail and it honestly made no sense to me. It was not one that I could throw away incase it was true even though I suspected it was a spam letter. It was a health care letter about new benefits to my Medicare plans. It had some stuff about gettingMedicare part D plans. So I had to call and found out that it was a huge mistake and was for a different Christina Ross out there but some how my address got attached to it. Thankfully it was not a huge deal to call them and they had already known about it…
Oh my aching hip
My hip has been an issue ever since I got pregnant for Logan. They call it SI joint paint and it happens when the muscle relaxes because of the pregnancy hormones and the joint doesn’t stay in place. Since I had such a horrible time with that while I was pregnant for the monster the hip joint is a lot more relaxed than it should be. I go to the chiropractor and it totally helps but the in between times can be a little rough when sleeping. I have seriously considered the idea of getting one of those adjustable beds thar would allow me to decide the level of firmness based on my hip needs. Granted the main thing is cost but also makes me think it’s more for old people and honestly I am not ready to admit that I am getting old. Does anyone else suffer from these issues???
