Getting to Know Me

Here I am bloggingonce again.  I have decided to write with what I remember, know, understand, want to share with others.  I do not want to prove anything.  I want others to know who I am through my words.  I am a 48-year-old woman who is dealing with kidney disease once again after 31 years and now doing hemodialysis three times a week at 3 ½ hours every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.  I go to appointments whenever necessary, get my nails done as well go pick up groceries at Wal-Mart with my IRIS hired worker once a month, and dine in and out whenever monies allow.  I rarely leave my apartment otherwise.  I am more private than I used to be, but I do have stories of my past I am willing to share from time to time.  In fact, since I have a lot of time on my hands to twiddle my thumbs, why not begin writing a book?  I am one of those people that begins something sometimes does not finish what she starts.  I do not want to be that person anymore.  I am a Christian woman who struggles with depression, anxiety, and panic disorder. I see a counselor when I can and the last time I saw her was in May 29, 2019, and the last time before that it was in October somewhere.  My health has taken a little beating since then, and I have added hemodialysis to my weekly regimen as of April 24, 2019 in the hospital for a few days and then outpatient May 7, 2019.  Life moves on.
            Why am I telling you all this?  A blog is a blog, right?  I am telling you that I am, yet another human being who loves to write, who I am through words.  I want to tell you stories and express my opinion from time to time.  My life as a human being is a story in itself from time to time, too. I love to read, write, watch television, converse with my IRIS hired workers and IRIS consultant about things that matter to me and others whenever I can.  Why not write in a blog from time to time as well.  I know that I say “time to time” too often.  Anyway, I am going to begin doing what I love when I am busy and that starts today.  No more sluffing off.  If I have a bad day, I have a bad day.  If I have a good day, I have a good day.  Blogging is one of the aspects my life is now going to have – opinions and all.
