I Lost My Sisters...

They didn't die or anything like that. They just went away. I have a pretty good idea why they got lost. It's a private matter. It use to be painful but I survived. In fact, I'm a whole lot happier these days, thank you! The grief process for this loss was very similar to the grief process I have experienced with the loss of my Daddy this past year. And, another fact...

"Against eternal injustice, man must assert justice, and to protest against the universe of grief, he must create happiness."

Albert Camus

So, if you've had a loss in your life, just remember the five steps of grieving are:

Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. Get on through it...and go get HAPPY! Let's go shopping!

Hypothyroidism...

Ugh...what a bad word. Hypothyroidism. Didn't know I had it for (probably) years. Symptoms are numerous. Tired, weak, depressed, dry skin, brittle nails, hair loss, forgetful, hate the cold, weight gain. Just thought these were signs associated with getting older. 

Check out other symptoms and problems concerning the thyroid and how and why it controls every cell in your body at the following link. All it takes to fix is a simple blood test and a little pill for the rest of your life. Glad my doc cared enough to check me out. Now I feel like my old 'young' self again.
