I'm The Kinda Girl who.....

Everyone I follow has been posting this topic this week, and well I figured it would be fun to jump in on! So.... bring on the randomness. 


  • I'm the kind of girl who can talk and talk and talk all day at work, but when she gets home can go hours with out talking.... (Yes its true) 
  • I'm the kinda girl that loves to sit in fat pants(yoga pants) and watch movies on a Friday night and be completely content. We did this on my birthday after eating Grilled Cheese samwhich's! More on this tomorrow! 
  • I am the girl who loves who she is and rarely wears make up. I maybe can count on one hand the amount of times I wore it last year. I have some, I just don't think women need it. Women are pretty the way they are, embrace yourself! 
  • I am the girl who loves to say that this following picture is my FUR CHILD!!!

  • I'm the girl that loves her friends and family and loves them so much! 
  • I am the girl who is afraid to die... Just because of the physical unknowns after... 
  • I am the girl who loves to go shooting and hunting with my man! 
  • I am a young woman who has Interstitial Cystitis
  • I'm the girl that has the best Furchild, and boyfriend a girl could ask for...

~Finally Friday!~

It's Finally Friday!!!



 I can't believe how fast this week has gone by! It was nice, however a lot has happened this week! 

I have gotten the approval for a site to place a IC Support group meeting in my local area, since the one that was here, has moved! I can't express how happy this is making me this week. Most of us with IC feel so lonely, broken, tattered, and unwanted. This all comes from the fact that people in general have these opinions about us: 
  • We don't look sick, so therefore we must be fine
  • It's all in your head 
  • A bladder disease can't be that serious
  • Not enough awareness so, some doctors think your PSYCHO, or just don't believe it
  • Mostly people don't understand or can't relate, if you tell someone you have cancer, then they get it, but IC isn't like that. Its rare, and that's part of the issue.
I understand that majority of people don't think this way, however it happens, and someone new with IC can go through hell for the first few months. So I want to make a difference, I want to be different and help! Not only am I listed at both my specialist's office and my family doc's office as a IC  Mentor and they know they can give my digits out to people who want a ear to listen or just for advice... So this first thing this week has been huge! Now to make flyers... Errr I'm not very artsy so we will see! Wish me luck! 

Second, I have realized we have less than 10 weeks until Christmas, and I have not started Shopping. I realize that is a long ways away, but I would still like to start, so I'm brainstorming ideas! However, I will wait until Thanksgiving to play Christmas music! 


Third, I can't wait for my work trip that I announced earlier this week! I am so lucky to have a job I love doing, and I get to travel as well. This will be my second big trip this year with the company, and third in the year I have been with them!!! 

Lastly, It's date night, and menu planning night! So I will post my menu for this next week this weekend, and well let's say I'm SOOOO happy that it's fall and Crock pot season! 

Have a good Friday Ya' all! :)
