Hello Again

It feels like forever since I have written a post for this blog.  It's 11:35pm here and I was about to fall asleep when I realized I need to blog!  It's been a hectic few weeks, and in the grand scheme of life, I am starting to focus on getting to know myself and do fun things for me.  I have decided to take up guitar lessons and tonight was my first lesson and I enjoyed it, however my delicate fingers are a bit sore from pressing down on the strings.

My IBS has been fairly good to me, I've had only one attack and it was definitely my fault, I had too much pepper and my body said ENOUGH, I shall punish you!  Since I was a child I would pretend I had tiny little men working in my stomach as if it was a mining company and instead of digging up gold they were digging up left over food and sending it too fast to the chute.  I love telling that story to my loved ones and close friends, I thoroughly enjoy their puzzled faces and eventual laughter at my weirdness.  I've never actually given my IBS a first name, I should considering my stomach thinks it is separate from me.  Anyways, next week I shall get back on track with my topics.

Tip for today: Never rely on Immodium as a daily or consistent remedy, that stuff will mess up your stomach in the long run.  It constipates me for 3 days and then I have one day of an IBS attack to balance it out.  So word of caution only take it if you cannot cancel plans, such as boarding a plane, train or anything else.

Good Night!
