The kids and I are home from a long weekend visiting a friend in Rocky Mtn House. I’m feeling pretty exhausted and it’s nice to be home (don’t get me wrong, I did have a lot of fun and it was great to see my friend and her kiddos). I am just feeling pretty warn out though. I feel like I could sleep for the next twenty four hours – or more!! I’m wearing my new, organic eucalyptus sports bra and it’s super comfy, Canadian made. My friend has a wonderful little store in Rocky Mtn House called, “Earthy Fibres and More”. I also bought a hoodie, pants, a nighty, a t-shirt, as well as some essential oils I needed for my diffuser. Yes, she’s one of my best friends, so I’m putting it on here just because she deserves it. It’s such a nice shop, with so many things from decorative, clothing ,to yoga equipment and cloth diapers. That’s my mini plug for her store. She’s getting close to having to shut down, because business is so slow. I find it really sad. She used the small inheritance that she got when her mom passed away, because it was a dream of hers. It hurts my heart. So, if you’re ever up and around Ricky Mtn House, be sure to pop by.

Okay, I’m sorry if that seems inappropriate. I just want good things for her. So, here’s a shocker, my face hurts a lot tonight, but that’s to be expected when I’m this tired. Of course, I’m writing this when I should really be sleeping…nothing new there, lol! But, on that note, I’m going to head off to bed. I leave with you a photo of my lovely face…the dentist appointment I had on Friday has done me in. It was on the bad side of my face, of course, it was quite the trigger. It’s Monday night and I’m still unable to open my mouth widely. Also, I’m sporting a lovely momento (good thing they were “gentle” on my sore side) from that fun appointment…(hence the photo!!) Night all💤

Nice, eh??

To help with research and treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia please go to http://www.tnnme.com (Trigeminal Neuralgia and Me) to sign a petition to have the World Health Organization (WHO) add Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) to their “Health topic list.”

Hopefully once day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!

Yay Me…Great Mom Moment!!!!

I’m tired tired tonight. I went to bed pretty late last night and was woken up at about 6:30 in the morning by my son yelling out, “Mom I’m falling, Mom! Mom!” over and over. Screaming super loud. I was certain that he was going to wake everyone up. I was trying to wake him up, gently shaking him and telling him again and again that he was okay, but each time he’d yell, “No! No you don’t!!” Then suddenly he started throwing up all over. It was so bad!! I’m so surprised that no-one woke up. I had to try to find a bunch of cloths and towels. I wiped him off and cleaned him up the best I could. I washed his shirt off, I managed to get most of it in his shirt. I had to track down a plastic bag for the dirty clothes and cloths. I found him some clean towels and put some between the sheet & matress cover. Then another over that! At one point my friends’ dog came up to investigate and my little Aggy went crazy barking. By that point I was shocked that, still, no one had woken up!! I somehow managed to get him cleaned up and back to bed. Am pretty proud of myself. Generally I have hubby’s help at home. But when this happened, I was alone, yet I managed! Yay me! Yay me! He’s a bit better tonight! Still have the puke-bowl very convenient- do not want a repeat of last night!!

Hopefully once day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!

Too tired to write much tonight. Had a long, fun day at my friend’s house. I’m super tired and yesterday I had a dentist appointment, so my mouth and face is bad bad bad today! Tomorrow’s should be another good visit. We escaped from the kids for a while and went on a nice walk together – close to 5km!!! Which, for a person with all of my shit going on, is pretty damn great!! I’m proud of myself. Despite being in someone else’s house, I’ve been pretty good with what I’ve been eating as well!! My friend and I are both trying to eat better and get in better shape, so she’s very understanding with all of the things that I’d rather not have. It’s hard when it’s not your own house. My “official” start date will be this Monday. So I just have to be really good, but I’m done for now. Feeling much too tired to continue on. Sorry folks this is it for tonight. I can’t even keep my eyes open. No…nothing to do with Zzzzzzzzzz

Sorry this is so boring…

Hopefully once day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!

Goodnight World!!

Hi all. I’m at a friend’s house in Rocky Mtn House. It was a bit of a stressful drive. My hubby stayed home and the kids & I came. Which meant …I had to drive. There’s some kind of bad karma that pops up whenever I have to drive here. The weather immediately becomes crappy! This year wasn’t as bad as last years blizzard or the year befores’ record breaking snow-fall or the snow the year prior to that, when my hubby drive to meet us in Red Deer & we ended up staying for the night in Red Deer hotel, because of the warnings not to drive. This lovely weather fiasco was fog…lots and lots of fog! Like once someone passes you they almost immediately disappear. Poof! We’re left in the overwhelming post-apocalyptic zombie world… You feel like you’re not sure where the rest of the human civilization is…good times, good times! I was definitely ready for the wine and ceasar that I had upon arriving. Even better, I got to see one of my super close friends, Holly, who I’m always missing. Ever since she moved from across the street to Rocky Mtn House! So, we arrived late and, hence, we are going to be super late. I’m exhausted, both mentally and physically!! Goodnight world-at least those of you who weren’t over-run by zombies…lol

I’m Doing What Works Best For Me

Another day another stupid hate my face day… Okay, that didn’t flow at all‼️ My 21 day fix kit arrived today, finally, yippee! I’m still excited about it. I know that physically, I’m probably about a gazillion miles away from being able to do the exercises. Both strength and endurance wise. So they will likely be too hard for me. They’re not the type of workouts that you can just jump into and be ready to go. Well, for me. Keep in mind that over the past two years I’ve been spending many many hours in my bed or on the couch. Not just being lazy, but unable to function. I can’t go from that minimal activity level and do some of these workouts. It’s probably not safe to jump right into these videos without at least some basic day to day activities that keep you somewhat physically prepared. Tonight I did the “yoga fix” workout and she was talking about it being their easy stretching and relaxing non-extreme for the week. Which is why I chose to try it. I definitely worked up a sweat and found it quite difficult. This just reinforces the fact that my body has to slowly get used to moving again. I ordered the “Tai Chen” kit. This exercise includes slow and deliberate moves including physically correcting how we move and hold our bodies. It’s developed by Dr Chen (hence the name). He uses kinetic science stuff (obviously not their words – I’m just done in today – lol!!) to retract you how to carry your body and move your body. He corrects your alignment and really gets rid of aches and pains, cricks and cracks. Then in the second part of the video he teaches how to properly do certain Tai Chi moves or sequences. It is a ninety day program that slowly has you learning a long Tai Chi sequence that you do with your corrected movements and body positions. (I’m so sorry about the poor description, I’m so so tired right now… my brain just doesn’t want to work!) Anyway, my point is that once this kit arrives I will begin the 90 day program and also continue following the 21day fix meal plan. I needed to get something more realistic for me to complete. Maybe then, I can begin one of the other, more physically demanding workouts. I’m feeling positive and motivated to follow through and complete my 21 days feeling good about myself. Then I just continue with the food plan for the next 21 days and he next and the next…as long as it takes to lose the millions of pounds I’ve gained so get the past few years! I’m super tired and tomorrow will be a long day. The kids and I are going to Rocky Mountain House to visit my good friend Holly and her kids. Eating healthy may be harder then when I’m at home!! Hopefully I can stay on track and buy whatever groceries I need, without offending my friend. I’m sure it’ll be fine. We’re pretty close, so it should be fine. 💤Night night sleep tight💤

I’m Run Down!

Well folks, today has been a bad pain day😢. I’m not surprised, considering how long yesterday was. I know some of my triggers and one of the big ones is overdoing it. Some days it can’t be avoided, I had to go with my daughter to her dance thing yesterday. It’s not like she can get herself to Ft. Saskatchewan or get herself home (if I decide that I have to go home because I’m too tired) all by herself. Nope. Yesterday I had to stay, not much choice in the matter. I don’t really know anyone that well yet. So, it makes it difficult to ask for a hand. Anyway, of course the long day affected me. Today was just rough. My daughter’s tooth was no better today. It was so bad that my daughter stayed home from school. The only time the dentist could fit her in was at the same time that I had an appointment to see a hypnotherapist. I was really looking forward to the appointment, but my daughter just wasn’t well. In the end, I cancelled my appointment (very late-I feel so so bad about the little notice I gave her). The dentist said that part of the temporary crown was too high, so it was throwing off her night and sending pain into the tooth. The thing is, she feels no better. The dentist said to take the Tylenol for the pain and Advil to bring down the inflammation. She said that we can’t see it, but the tooth is inflamed from the incorrect bite grinding it weirdly. I hope it feels better tomorrow. I don’t want to have to take her back again. More importantly, I want my daughter to start feeling better. Right now she can’t sleep and she’s still awake because of the pain. I hope that the problem is what the dentist thought, it just worries me because I want her to feel better. Oh, she’s calling me. It’s hard when your child is in pain and you can’t help them. It’s a bad and helpless feeling! I’m gonna run and go see what she needs. I’m done anyway. Just need to get some ice on my and perhaps her face!!

I had a very very long day with my daughter today. She had “pre-comp” today. Which is basically a dress rehearsal for her dance studio. They rent the stage at the Dow centre in Ft Saskatchewan. Then all of the dancers have the opportunity to run through their dances on stage. She has her old teacher (who is an actual adjudicator) to watch and write notes, etc. as if they were at an actual competition. It’s a great opportunity to dance on that particular stage, because one of their competitions is there and the final year end recital is there as well. My daughter and I left our house aroun 1:30 this afternoon and we got home after 10:00. Needless to say, I’m just exhausted. My daughter was a trooper though. She was at the dentist yesterday getting prepped for a crown on one of her molars. They did the mould and then filed the tooth down and put the temporary crown on, that has to stay on until her appointment in a couple of weeks. They said it may be a little sore. They also said not to eat with that side of her mouth, because it can come off super easily. Well, it has been bugging her a lot!! I mean a lot!! She was almost crying by the time we got into the van to drive home. It’s hurting her so much that she can’t fall asleep – despite how exhausted she is, after today. I gave her two Tylenol ones and 1400mg Advil and we out oragel on and around the tooth and she’s still unable to fall asleep! As a parent, it sucks!!!!! when you see your child hurting, but nothing you try helps. It’s a very helpless feeling. (Although this tiny voice in the back of my brain said, “now she understands the nerve pain that I usually feel…” Bad!! Bad voice!! She actually asked me if this is what I feel when I talk weird and can’t eat on the super bad days. Maybe she will now understand a bit more. That’s kind of the best way to understand. I’ve asked people, who are wondering how it feels, if they’ve ever had a bad tooth ache or exposed nerve on a tooth, etc. Most people are like “Really??? It’s that kid of pain??” I’m like, there’s a reason they refer to it as the most painful disorder known to mankind!!! Anyway. I’m bloody exhausted and I think I hear her calling me again…poor baby-doll😥. So I’m off. If you have any suggestions about how to help her deal with the pain, let me know!! Thanx all!!

The 21 Day Fix!!!

February 8, 2016Uncategorized# atypical facial pain, # kids, # laser therapy, #acute pain, #affiliate marketing, #Beaumont AB, #cannabidiol, #cannabinoids, #cannabis, #chronic fatigue, #chronic pain, #clinical depression, #dependency, #edmonton, #facial pain, #lasertherapy, #mairrage, #marihuana, #marijuana, #medication, #medicinal marihuana, #medicinal marijuana, #meditation for pain relief, #meditech, #MVD surgery, #neuroplasticity, #pain relief, #pain sensitization, #parenting, #poetry#bug bites, #side effcts, #Striking Back, #TN, #TN research, #trigeminal neuralgia, #vaping, #vaporisor, #vapping, #wealthy affiliate, #www.tnnme.com, #www.zazzle.com, #yayme, #yoga for pain relief, beautiful #painJenn

So I’ve decided to take the plunge and give the 21 day fix a try. For those of you who don’t know what that is, it’s an intense 21 days of learning and eating clean, as well as getting regular exercise. I need to get myself and my family eating better. I have a lot of weight to lose and a lot of bad habits that I need to ditch. I’m just jumping in with both feet and changing my eating overnight. It needs to be done. My body aches, none font clothes fit, I don’t like the person I see in the mirror…the list goes on and on… Normally if I were to try something like this I’d keep it to myself – you know, just in-case I can’t stick to it. Well look where that’s gotten me??!! So here I am, announcing my intentions to the world. It’s a new way of looking at things and I’m very determined!! So one of the things you do is state your “why??” As in, why are you needing to do this program. Here goes, this is my why:

Why why why… (Forgive me if this becomes ridiculously long…)

Well, first, I want to lose weight so that I’m able to look in the mirror without cringing every time! I’m very very hard on myself. I know women, more than men, tend to rip themselves apart (especially in our heads with all of the repetitive negative thoughts). I want to love what I see in the mirror. I want to be able to get ready to go (anywhere & everywhere)super fast, instead of taking forever trying to find the clothes that hide or disguise me & still end up leaving the house feeling totally negative and self-conscious (I’m so so tired of feeling this way…).

I live in horrid pain most of the time. My pain doc is amazing and he has been teaching me that I need to get healthy (weight-wise & food-wise & activity-wise). It could help with my pain (which is HUGE) & because the brain surgery did not work, & this is something that I can do for myself. This disease isn’t going anywhere…so do I just check out of life & give up?? Or do I fight for my life!!?? It should be a no-brainer.

However, I’m going to need oodles of support on the bad pain days! I’m also going to need some suggestions on both quick prep meals & on recipes that can be prepared ahead of time & frozen so that I can’t use the pain as an excuse to eat like crap!! Some days I can’t even get out of bed. But, I need to try to live again!!

I just want to be fit again. I don’t want to be out of breath going up the stairs or playing with my son. (My girls are beyond the “playing” age).

Also, I truly can’t remember the last time I felt even close to “sexy”; for myself &/or my hubby. I truly can’t recall… My goal is to write a book (or two, or three). I just love writing!! Last year I challenged myself to start a blog & to write a post each & every day of 2015. And…I did it!! Despite the pain & the exhaustion, I did it!! I proved to myself that there’s still some fight left in me. I want to use that momentum to accomplish more. I’m still writing my blog this year, but this is my year to get back onto my feet. One day at a time. (If anyone is interested in my rambling, my blog is http://www.thespiritscribe.com).

And , finally (sorry, I can go on & on!!) I need to get my entire family eating better. We have increased the number of easy, yet super unhealthy, meals since I got sick. And, I have to start feeding them healthy food, not just myself! I want to raise healthy kids, with healthy habits. We have to set our kids on the right path & start them out right. I know it’s going to be a fight, but our eating habits are so so bad right now!

So, ramble, ramble – that’s me!!

Thanx guys. ❌😘❌‼️

Tough times pulling down on you?

Let faith and hope carry you through.

Not sure what to do or where to go?

Let your heart guide you, it will know.

Feeling lonely, stranded, on your own?

Let those you love help bring you home.

Confused, unsure if you should move on or stay?

Let trust in yourself show you the way.

Can’t get encouragement from those you love?

Then trust in hope and guidance from above.

If praying isn’t the thing for you?

Find support and guidance from those around you.

There’s always a way, even if you’re close to quitting.

Meditation can clear your mind, while you’re quietly sitting.

It opens you up and encourages you to trust in yourself.

Try it, truly it can fill you with an abundance of wealth.

There are many options, even when you feel there are none.

Hopefully my suggestions leave you with at least one!

Smiling brings it all together

Work at making your life better

Happiness won’t knock down your door

You have to create what you’re looking for

Feeling sorry for yourself and doing nothing

Leaves you empty & yearning for something

How often do you sit wishing things would change

While believing your dreams are out of range

If you expect joy to come on a silver platter

You know nothing, clearly, about the matter

Happiness is yours for the taking

Smile until you’re no longer faking!
