chronic

I never can’t shut my mind off at night. I remember the girl who could go to work on 2-4hrs of sleep and keep doing it night after night. The girl who deep cleans the whole house in one day, the girl who was spontaneous with no care in the world, the girl who would work 50-60 hrs a week come home to two kids to handle and one has autism. The girl who was none stop, always making plans. The girl who lived at the beach and loved summer. The girl who wasn’t having panic attacks, head spinning, OCD, Germ phobia, depression, insecurities, confident, strong, Chronic pain, POTS…and the list goes on. But now….every thing has changed. I just got diagnosed with POTS after a long road. Still trying to figure out how I can survive everyday on my feet. Is anyone else counting down to fall? 🍂🍁 # POTS #Depression #chronic

Guy and I went to his son's 4July barbecue. Turns out, alot of friends showed up. I slipped out on their side porch and the there I saw him. And way against the far back fence, there his grandson was-----alone, but not lonesome ! Sometimes, we all need to find our own peace.

Sunrise continued to be colorful from pre dawn until sunrise

This was just before sunrise, while it was still dark. I love that you could already see some color in the sky at pre dawn.

Our older Almond tree is blooming. It hasn't had the right conditions over the past few years. So happy to see these blossoms

I used puff pastry and jam/jelly to make these delicious treats.
I opened up the store bought puff pastry until it lay flat. Then sliced it into 3 strips using a pizza cutter on the fold lines. I then cut each strip in half. At this point you should have 6 pieces. Do the same with the 2nd sheet of puff pastry. I then added 1 tablespoon of jam/jelly into the center of each of the 6 rectangles leaving about an inch between jelly and edge, then take a matching rectangle and place it on top of each of the jelly filled rectangles. I used an egg slightly beaten to brush around the edges of the rectangle and used a fork to press around the edges to help form a seal and prevent the jelly from leaking out during baking. I also brushed the egg over the top of each filled poptarts rectangle and used a sharp knife to make 2-3small slits into top of poptarts to allow steam to escape. Place on baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. After cooling, I mixed 1/2 cup powdered sugar and a little water and mixed to form a glaze to drizzle over poptarts.
