I Can Die Now

So, I bought some Amberen.  It is an OTC med for women going through menopause.  I bought it for many reasons...mostly for my mood. And to rid myself of the horrible hot flashes.  It promises to balance out hormones so that it resets your moods (please, get me out of this never ending depression/funk!), get rid of hot flashes, perhaps help you regain some energy, and maybe help you be able to lose weight.

I have taken it for 5 days and it has already elevated my mood from the chronic depression to feeling pretty good...optimistic even.

Then  read an article about people that have a condition known as: Perennial nonallergic rhinitis.  I read all the symptoms and it is me!  I thought I had a regular seasonal allergy but then, it turned into year round.  I do not have the itchy eyes.  and the worst part is the fatigue that keeps getting worse. So I ordered the nasal spray that is supposed to 'fix' it.  I got it today.  So, I tried it right away.  I had to use it twice because of the sinus congestion.  You shake it up and spray it in your nostrils...and at first it brings some tears to your eyes. Then...voila...head cleared out.  I can breathe...no sinus headache!

Needless to say...I am finally feeling better.  FINALLY!

I found out today that I WILL be moved to an Intervention Specialist position but it may not be until after school officially begins for the students.  That is fine.  I will begin next week in my old position and stay there for about 3 weeks.  School officially begins in 3 weeks.  It will just give me more free time to do things around the house.

I had to do some repairs in the sunroom.  The one door needed new hardware...spring loaded strike plate and a new piston closer.  Should have been easy enough to replace but new things do not necessarily fit in place of the old things.  Nothing is easy.

And to share a story I posted on my FB page...
Funny story...came to Lowe's to get some more screen. Guy has his teenage son with him and is showing him some kind of hardware and comparing things and giving him a 'lesson'. Suddenly there is a loud yelp and the guy starts jumping around and yelling, "aaahhh! There was a spider on it!" His son is laughing, I walked over and the thing was whirling on the floor, not even as big as the nail on my pinky. I brought my foot down on it. He quit jumping and said, "Thank you! You saved my life!! That thing touched my hand!!" I looked at him, shook my head, turned around and was laughing as I walked away...while his son is cracking up. So...I saved someone's life today. Hahahaha!

My life's purpose has been fulfilled....
