I’ve been bouncing back and forth between blogspot and wordpress and have discovered a bunch of my friends and faves from JS. I am still reeling from the shock of losing my blogging home.
I feel better tonight. Just a lot to chew off regarding my health. The positive things are this:
1) I’m GOING to lose weight this year. I WILL do it!
2) I am a registered nurse now. My dream is accomplished.
3) I can control this disease, not let it control me.
4) I am taking my health into my own hands. I don’t like what my doctor’s here are saying so I am going to take my business elsewhere, where I am listened to and evaluated properly.
5) I am going to eat healthier. I’m not in school any longer so no more excuses here!
6) I finally have an answer to all my health problems after 5 years. Nothing that I expected, but hey, it could be worse, right? I have been diagnosed with everything from Meniere’s Disease to Bipolar II disorder. I have learned increased intracranial pressure can, um, er, press on your brain and cause rapid mood swings, depression, and balance, and dizziness issues. Jeez, maybe that’s why the antidepressants NEVER worked! I knew I should have listened to Sarah-Boogie a long time ago!
7) I am going to research all I can on intracranial hypertension and find out how others live with it. It’s not the end of the world.
8) I am going to quit feeling sorry for myself.
9) I am going to repeat all of this tomorrow because I will wake up feeling sorry for myself again 
Everyone who has commented has been so kind and supportive. I know we all have trials and tribulations. This is my turn. I’ll be all right.
I love all of my blogging friends!
Hugs, Jenn
something scary though..
your “youngest” brother will be 27 soon..
*insert scary music here*
Glad to see you blogging and about..
I’ve said to mom a few times..the whole layout JS had was by far the easiest way to do things..it was more of a community..a “small town” not like wordpress..which seems like like Times Square on Dec.31st..
JS was easier. But it’s no more so we can’t do squat about it. You’re only going to be 27? Why, I remember that like it was 10 years ago….
Excellent list, excellent outlook, Jenn.
27? That was half a lifetime ago
Thanks Doug
Geez, I feel so old! LOL!
Gosh, everyone acts like this place is so complicated. I dont think so, I felt like WordPress was way harder. It’s all what we are used to.
I can’t believe little bro is going to be 27. Dang!
Unfortunately I can’t change your layout here… they want cash for that! lol At blogger it’s free.
I agree, excellent list. This year should be a great one for you!
I’m glad I found you!! I’m losing weight too. SparkPeople is a cool site that is helping me. Have a good one

I’m on blogspot too. I found it much easier and I can change layouts a lot easier (and cheaper). I’m at labetine.blogspot.com.
I hope 2009 is a wonderful year for you.
Stay positive – nudge. It is never easy ( as you well know) but taking this all by the horns and finding your own way through it is the BEST thing you can do. I applaud your courage. Nice to be able to find so many of those i love as well. Maggs
