Good morning everyone!!!! Long time since I've posted. So I apologize for the long post. Lots of things have been going on since I closed the store. I just wanted to update you all on whats been going on in my life and to let you know what my new intentions are for this page.
📢:My biggest announcement though is I'm going to be a first time Grandma this spring. My heart is over joyed and I am so excited. I knew in my heart when I left the store that there was something bigger God has in store.
🔆Life: As you know when I closed the door of the store I had been dealing with lots of different health issues. Since leaving i have had 3 surgeries. 1.)I had to have a disc replaced in my neck as well as removal of a bone spur that was pressing on my spinal cord. 2.) I had to have hip surgery to repair a torn labrum, some bone reconstruction and another bone spur removal. 3.) The most current has been my shoulder. I had a torn rotator cuff, torn labrum, bone spur removal and bicep tendonitis (where they had to detach my bicep, repair the damage, clear out the inflammation and reattach it) Im still recovering from all of these and not 100% The shoulder being the worst yet. I have been in good spirits and recovering extremely well as far as what my dr and therapist assessments say. Im not back to normal as this is a long recovery. I have been keeping myself in good spirits and my faith in the lord. I have also been working on my mental health. I have had many official diagnoses that are being treated which include severe depression (especially around the birthdays and the anniversaries of my parents passings over the last 3 years, anxiety including social anxiety, ptsd, adhd, raynauds, fibromyalgia, chronic migraines, low iron as well as POTS. All which are now being controlled. BTW for those who knew about the migraines. We finally found treatments that are working and I havent had one in a few months. Just a headache or 2 a month usually caused by allergies or my low iron which i have emergency medication for. Im sure there is much more but those are the majors. My faith, my amazing husband, my children and knowing God knew i needed all this to happen right now so that i can physically and emotionally be prepared for Gods greatest blessing. A little grandbaby to love. All these important ppl in my life have been keeping me strong. God always provides, he is always by my side and yours too.
All of things may knock a person down which is totally understandable. But I'm blessed to have God in my life and im not going to let these "set backs" stop me from living this beautiful life God has given me. Pain, sorrow, happiness, joy and Gods generous mercy opens a persons eyes.
✳️With that being said I'll using this page to keep in touch with everyone, share my faith, struggles and to show the beauty of this world 🌎 through our travels and adventures that God makes possible. ✝️ As I post i would love ❤️ to hear from everyone who may or may not have been to where we have gone. Some of the must see and do at these places. Or even suggestions of other places. Even share your own pics. 📸 Or even comment what you may be going through whether its hardships or even just want to brag about what God has/is doing in your life. You can never have too many prayers 🙏 So i would to love to hear from you all. I sure do miss you all 🫂 and I would love to keep up with everyone. With that being said bare with me as I reinvent this page. Things might be slow at first with the posting as I will also be working on my YouTube channel for extended travel videos as well as continuing with normal life. Love and miss you all. If you could please check in below (as i do not use messenger anymore) and let me know how you all are doing. I would absolutely to hear from you. God bless each and every one of you.
