Anxiety

Had a few wonderful days with no heart palpitations and anxiety.

Last night and today I have been battling a tummy virus or food poisoning. Rosie has it as well.

My heart has been beating too fast and I am aware of each beat. I am going to take .25mg xanax. Prolly will knock me out.

SO BORED!

Beauty

I have been using Jergens National Glow Sunless Tanner for a week. Really building up a nice light tan.

Love the curly perm I got. It makes me look like I have triple the hair I did before I got it. I use my new HOT TOOLS Curling iron to smooth out the curls. Looks FAB! Love it so much.

Starting to grow my hair out. Prior to Gastric Bypass my hair was 31″ long. Starting losing my hair a few months after surgery which is VERY COMMON. So I decided to chop it off up to my neck in April 2010. It was so sparse and had all sorts of different lengths coming in….It is finally getting to the point  that I can grow it back out now. I miss my LONG hair! Gonna wear some human hair extensions tomorrow. Haven’t worn them in ages.

I see a new psychiatrist and counselor tomorrow. Rose goes to physical therapy. In between appointments we are going to the mall.

Still having hot flashes and mood swings. But more good times than bad ones since I started HRT Hormone Replacement therapy.

Having a hot flash now… UGH!

Symbol PEACOCK

1Peacock

In history, myth, legend and lore, the Peacock symbolism carries portents of: Nobility, Holiness, Guidance, Protection and Watchfulness.

Here is a keyword quick-list of peacock symbolism:

Glory

Vision

Royalty

Spirituality

Awakening

Immortality

Refinement

Incorruptibility

In Greco-Roman mythology the Peacock is identified with Hera (Juno) who created the Peacock from Argus whose hundred eyes (seen on the tail feathers of the Peacock) symbolize the vault of heaven and the “eyes” of the stars.

In Hinduism the Peacock is associated with Lakshmi who is a deity representing benevolence, patience, kindness, compassion and good luck.

Similar to Lakshmi, the Peacock is associated with Kwan-yin in Asian spirituality. Kwan-yin (or Quan Yin) is also an emblem of love, compassionate watchfulness, good-will, nurturing, and kind-heartedness. Legend tells us she chose to remain a mortal even though she could be immortal because she wished to stay behind and aid humanity in their spiritual evolution.

In Babylonia and Persia the Peacock is seen as a guardian to royalty, and is often seen in engravings upon the thrones of royalty.

In Christianity the Peacock symbolism represents the “all-seeing” church, along with the holiness and sanctity associated with it. Additionally, the Peacock represents resurrection, renewal and immortality within the spiritual teachings of Christianity.

 

Themes of renewal are also linked to alchemical traditions to, as many schools of thought compare the resurrecting phoenix to the modern-day Peacock.

Contemplate the powers of the Peacock when you need more vibrancy and vitality in your experience.

The Peacock can also help you on your spiritual Path, and breath new life into your walk of faith.

The Peacock can rejuvenate self-esteem levels too.

If you’re feeling “blah” and blue, imagine the glorious, techno-color display the Peacock provides.

This puts us in a proper mood to embrace your own nobility.

In no time, you’ll be walking tall and proud as a Peacock too!

Lucky Charms TRIVIA

The technical (copyrighted) name for the mini marshmallows found in Lucky Charms (and other breakfast cereals) is Marbits.

They were invented, as was the cereal, by General Mills VP John Holahan, when he cut up a few orange marshmallow Circus Peanuts, stirred them into a bowl of Cheerios, and was impressed with the results.

Doctor’s appointment tomorrow

I am still having all the same health issues.

Heart palpitations, hot flashes, sweats, chills, not able to concentrate, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, insomnia, weird abnormal issues from head to toe.Not to mention all the myalgia aches and pains.

My Glucose plummeted on me earlier.. glad it is back to normal.

Rosie’s leg is swollen from the trip to West Virginia. It is quite painful. She is gonna call her vascular doc to see if she can see him on Mon or Tues… if not she is going to see Dr Melling.

I just wish I had some energy to do something.

I feel paralyzed and incapacitated at times… MENTALLY.

Just unable to process my thoughts. Everything is muddled. No clarity. Unable to even think of a common words on occasion. It sucks!

There has to me more to life than the one I am living.

I want to LIVE….

I want to help others.

I want to be an extroverted, happy smiling woman with boundless energy to do things instead of sitting on my fat ass all day and doing nothing.

Having Chronic Fatigue Syndrome sucks.

Wish my doctors (PLURAL) could finally get me to the point where I want to get out of bed, and once out of bed able to accomplish all I know I am capable of!

Please keep us in your prayers. THANKS!

I Pray that God will either heal me or give my Dr knowledge on how to make me feel better.

BDSM

I have not read the book Fifty Shades of Grey and have no plans to.

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY ANY PERSON WOULD WANT TO BE SLAVE TO ANYONE.

In my last relationship… I was the dominate one in the bedroom and thoroughly enjoyed taking control and having my man do as I said.

He and I were EQUALS outside the bedroom.

I desire to have a man do as I say when it comes to love making. I am demanding. But would make sure my partner was in agreement with what I had planned for the evening.

COMMUNICATION IS THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE IN ANY RELATIONSHIP!

I know that there is a man out there praying to meet someone like me right this moment.

God created me for one special man….

God PLEASE Guide “he and I” together in YOUR time.

I surrender.

Research May Point to New Obesity Treatments

SUNDAY, May 6 (HealthDay News) — Scientists who found a way to make white fat behave more like brown fat say their discovery could lead to new obesity treatments.

Brown fat burns energy (preventing obesity), while white fat stores energy (causing weight gain). White fat cells are associated with fat accumulation around organs in the belly, and this so-called “visceral fat” has been linked to an increased risk for diabetes and heart disease, the researchers explained.

The new study, published in the May 6 online edition of the journal Nature Medicine, reports that U.S. researchers found that they could make white fat take on the characteristics of brown fat by blocking vitamin A metabolism in white fat.

“Brown fat, and mechanisms that might allow white fat to take on brown fat characteristics, has been receiving increasing attention as a possible way to treat obesity and its complications,” study leader Dr. Jorge Plutzky, director of the Vascular Disease Prevention Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston, said in a hospital news release.

“Although more work is needed, we can add specific aspects of retinoid metabolism to those factors that appear involved in determining white versus brown fat,” he added.

One-third of adults in the United States are obese, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Exercise, diet changes, medications and surgery are among the current methods used to fight obesity.

Trivia DUCK TAPE, DUCT TAPE

Duck tape was originally green and developed by Johnson & Johnson for the U.S. military, which wanted a waterproof tape that would keep the moisture out of (and blend in with) their ammunition cases. During the postwar housing boom, it was discovered that it was also good for heating and air conditioning duct work, so the color was changed from army green to silver, and duck tape became duct tape.

Feeling Good

I had a bad day/afternoon. Ended up taking .25 mg xanax and took a 3 hour nap and feeling much better.

Rosie goes to therapy at 1pm tomorrow.

Gonna TRY and get an appt for me to see Dr Melling. Still having heart palpitations. Yesterday while at the Great Smokies Flea Market I got physically ill from the heat/sun and had to leave. That happens to me often. Has for years. Yesterday was really severe. My skin was cool as a cucumber but the Sweats were uncontrollable. Once I got home I was having freezing chills as well as sweats. NO FUN!

Had a nice chat with my babylove John. From Scotland. He is the only person I have ever opened up to. He listens and cares. He is my BEST FRIEND. I have never even heard his voice.. My choice. I may give him my phone number soon. After 4+ years I think it is time to hear his Scottish Brogue. If he wasn’t married, we would be more than friends only. He and I both knew when we became friends at a BBW (Big Beautiful Woman) friendship site that it would be FRIENDS ONLY.

In the last 18 years I have given my phone number to 2 men. Dr Jeff from England and a guy from the Netherlands. Spoke to both on a few occasions but that was it. NO CHEMISTRY.

Wrote Shane and received a lovely inspiring message back. I adore Shane and Rick… and all their friends…. especially Carmen, Terry, James, and Jesse.

I am so grateful to all my family and friends on Facebook who are compassionate and caring. Love all of you.

Praying for My Friend Dorane’s husband Roger. He had a lung transplant and is doing well. Pray it continues. My Dad worked with Dorane’s step father at Pete’s Ashland Oil back in the late 60′s.

Can’t wait to see my West Virginia Family on Friday!

So proud of my Cousins Blake and JR. Blake is in the army and serving our country. JR is getting ready to graduate from Law School.

Also proud of my cousins who have beat drug addiction. Praying for those who haven’t.

Christina Aguilera looks good tonight on The Voice.

Some of my spiral perm is flat and limp. Going back to the salon to see what can be done.

Gonna go get a huge bowl of Strawberries for my snack. YUM YUM.

Everything is beautiful in its’ own way…

(Ray Stevens) Jesus loves the little children All the little children of the world Red and yellow, black and white They are precious in his sight Jesus loves the little children of the world

Everything is beautiful In its’ own way Like a starry summer night Or a snow covered winter’s day Everybody’s beautiful In their own way Under God’s heaven The world’s gonna find a way

There is none so blind That is he who will not see We must not close our minds We must let our thought be free For every hour that passes by You know the world Gets a little bit older It’s time to realize That beauty lies In the eyes of the beholder

Everything is beautiful In its’ own way Like a starry summer nights Or a snow covered winter’s day Ah, sing it children Everybody’s beautiful In their own way Under God’s heaven The world’s gonna find a way

We shouldn’t care About the length of his hair Or the color of his skin Don’t worry about what shows from without but the love that lives within We’re gonna get it all together now Everything gonna work out fine Just take a little time to look on the good side my friend And straighten it out in your mind

Everything is beautiful In its’ own way Like a starry summer nights Or a snow covered winter’s day Ah, sing it children Everybody’s beautiful In their own way Under God’s heaven The world’s gonna find a way

One more time Everything is beautiful In its’ own way Like a starry summer nights

 

A very popular and family-friendly entertainer throughout the ’60s, Ray Stevens was given his own TV variety show in 1970 called The Ray Stevens Show, which lasted just one season as a summer replacement. He wrote the uplifting “Everything Is Beautiful” as the theme for the show. Stevens explained to mybestyears.com, “I needed a very special song for the program. I went down in my basement for about three days. I had crumpled paper all over the place. And suddenly the idea for the song came to me. I wrote it in maybe 45 minutes. It was a very special song and one that a lot of people still remember and sing along when I do it in shows.” This is a rare hit for Stevens that was not a novelty recording. He was better known for comedy songs like “The Streak,” “Ahab, The Arab,” and “Harry The Hairy Ape.” This won Stevens his first Grammy. It won for Best Contemporary Vocal Performance, Male. (thanks, Patrick – Tallapoosa, GA) Stevens was backed on this track by his two daughters and a second-grade class from Oak Hill Elementary School in Nashville, Tennessee. The song opens with the children’s chorus singing the first two lines of a popular bible school hymn, “Jesus Loves The Little Children.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everything_Is_Beautiful
