Life Update ~ Promise

   So, I've tried to post more often, but I'm still not very consistent, and here's why.

   I got a job. Yep. People, long hours, money,and responsibility. It's not easy, but I think it's good for me. I've discovered what being an adult entails and how to manage my time and energy more efficiently. That doesn't mean I function as an adult all the time, but it is getting me used to it.

   School. I'm in my senior year of high school. I'm almost done! Schooling is hard for me because I'm a 'big picture' person and I have a hard time focusing on the little things everyday. All I see is the vast amount of hours I have to do, and that can be very overwhelming for me. My Mom, however, is an excellent teacher and is a great help to me, especially in math. I'm just trying to take it one day at a time and focus on what I'm getting done. Fortunately, I was wise and knocked out a bunch of credits before my last year, so I actually don't have a ton of school to accomplish. I'm hoping to pick up a few classes I'll enjoy as well. I really wanted my last year of high school to be fun and less stressful.

   ...New medical issues. I was just diagnosed with PCOS and the medicine I'm on makes me feel sick a lot of the time. Not horribly sick, but now I feel a little queasy 80% of the time. I've also been trying a lot harder to get my Diabetes under control and check my blood sugar, stay on top of bolusing, and eat better. My hope is that I can get off this medicine by improving my health, because managing sugar levels can help with some of the symptoms of PCOS.


    I haven't done an update for quite some time, so that was a pretty huge information dump. A lot of things in my life are changing, and I've been processing, but I guess that's life, huh? Anyway, thanks for dropping by, and I hope you come back again soon. God bless!
