This day three years ago I broke my tooth. A few hours later, I boarded a ferry to Connecticut. It was my first state. Today I am boarding a plane. It is my last state. 42,000 miles so far in mom’s car. 151 hosts homes to date. And about to hit 50 states. I was thinking all morning how to express my current feelings as I take off...but nothing I was coming up with seemed to capture how I actually felt. And then I stopped to grab a water before boarding my flight, and the woman asked if I wanted to donate to the troops. The options were either a snack or a 60 minute call home. I thought for a second since the call was a bit more expensive, and then handed her the money. A call home. Just hearing her say the words suddenly made me feel all of the things I wasn’t feeling due to exhaustion all morning. Home. Home. Home. I am almost home. #threeyearslater #aloha #hawaii #roadtripusa ✨#herestohope ✌🏻#ONEMORESTATETOGO !

The next 6 months will be a big test but everything happens for a reason.

It hurts and its disappointing that you are not who I really thought you were. I hope that one day we will be the friends that we used to be. I know things change and people grow apart. Here's to hoping that this distance is temporary.

So I'm doing what I do with most of my blogs. I create it, keep up with it for a few days and then let it go. Here is to an update though. Upon finding out my diagnosis with IC I just figured it was a doctors way of bs'ing me saying I have a diagnosis that there's really no cure for, only management. I took a deep consideration of what I CAN do. I've been taking the medication they gave me to ease my symptoms AND I've been proactive about my health and I cannot tell you how much of a DIFFERENCE it has made. I really hope someone with IC reads this. I learnt what my triggers were by controlling what foods I ate. Once I found out foods could be a trigger I opted out all caffeine and acidic foods. Being scared to eat things like chili, spaghetti and even flavored decaf tea. But no... I found out simple triggers that were mine- SODA is a huge one. BEER is another. For the love of all humanity and your own sanity stay away from these two things bc these I noticed were huge triggers for me. I can eat other foods within reasonable moderation but I also think upon my own diagnosis that stress has a big factor as well as depression. I feel so much better after altering what I've eaten. I just really hope this good positive streak of mine lasts.
