A daily look into my life as a wife, mom, sister to 7, daughter and friend as I am dealing with Systemic Lupus. I am only 33 years young and sometimes deal with what 70 yr. olds deal with. My life is scary, blessed and different from day to day. I know I am not the only "young" woman going through this....maybe through my pain and experience I can help someone...
Welcome to my world...
I hope and pray that you get something from my blog. I have been dealing with my Lupus for 9 years and have been through it all! I was diagnosed at 25 and have had to learn to be a mom, wife and friend while dealing with a chronic illness... hope I can help or you help me!!

Weight watchers..again.
Yes, I have joined Weight Watchers for the 4th time. Since I quit smoking, I have put on some expected lbs. Quittting smoking is so worth the few extra pounds but I don't want to keep this weight on. My daily food intake isn't the hard part about losing this weight, it's exercising! I have a really nice gym right here in my complex. It has everything I need and 2 huge tv's. It would take me all of 2 minutes (if that) to walk there. Have I worked out 1 time this week? No. I don't know what it is. I need the motivation, I pray for the motivation. I am eating really healthy, drinking a lot of water but can't workout if my life depended on it! Tomorrow is my first WW meeting, maybe that will inspire me. I like being accountable to others, that just might do the trick. One of the resons I want to get to a healthier weight is my hubby and I want to get preggers this summer. I want my body to be nice and healthy to keep my baby safe. Having Lupus will make it a high-risk pregnancy as it is. I don't want to have anything else working against me. That is one of the hardest parts of having Lupus right now. I can't just go and get pregnant. I have to be off certain meds, I can't be going inti flare ups (which I haven't been!YAY) I just pray every night that God have His hand in this and what is meant to be will be. Please keep me in your prayers, it helps!!

Save those who can't save themselves!!
I am a huge animal advocate. I love animals, all animals and I believe no animal should live in harm, torture or un-liveable conditions. I think animal testing is disgusting and will buy only cruelty-free products. Thinking about animals in pain and no one there to care for them just kills me. It is so unfair and the people who abuse animals should be in jail...all of them!
