After taking my thyroid meds in the morning hour, I have to wait at least 30 minutes before drinking me coffee or eating. When first taking the meds, no one told me to wait 30 minutes to an hour before drinking coffee or eating after taking thyroid meds.
I stumbled across this. Disturbing that I had to find out the hard way, but I did find out! My THYROID JOURNEY has been that way. My Husband and I have both switched from SYNTHROID to ARMOUR. Both of us have noticed that we do not sweat like we use to. SYNTHROID made us both heat up, stay HOT and s w e a t. This is a miracle to not sweat like we were.
A miracle.
Side effects of Synthroid IS excessive sweating. We both suffered from this and when visiting with our Endo and his Nurse were told it must be something else causing excessive sweating. Right on the drugs writeup it says it can cause excessive sweating. Also read that excessive sweating is an allergic reaction to the DRUG.
As I waited for me coffee this fine Sunday morning, I went surfin' on the web. Not a tough pill to swallow. grins. I love it here. Hello.
Putting my stringy hair up on top my head while wearing my 'jailhouse work clothes', I worked like a *banshee out in the garage yesterday.
My energy level was pretty good. I did some serious sitting from time to time before getting after it again and again and again. Pleasant temps outside as we loaded the trunks of our autos with STUFF to take to thrift shoppe. STUFF. STUFF. STUFF. It is getting easier to part with these lil treasures that have gathered dust over the years. EASIER.
Laughing out loud when I came across OLD (more like ancient) checks. A 1997 check written out to WEIGHT WATCHERS has to go. I will go through these neatly grouped contracts in the evenings when I can sit and thumb through them. They're very orderly which reminds me I can be organized....just need to streamline. Will keep payments for houses, autos, credit cards, medical and anything else that might be sentimental like braces for daughter, leather athletic letter jacket for sons, class rings, etc. The kids will receive these as a birthday gift later on. Won't they love that! Perhaps it will be seen as funny while jogging down memory lane. Something they can throw away when they want.

I did attend Weight Watchers way back when. Several times in my LIFE I have joined this organization to help me lose weight in a healthy manner. The last time I was a member I bailed ship after I sat there in the group and listened to the group leader talk about looking like movie stars....It didn't rest well with me at the time. I am not a movie star....never have been. Never will be.

OPRAH. She is who she is and that's that. Over the years she has gone up and down on her weight. Many people do. Still, my old Weight Watchers CHECKS have to go. I'm losing them forever. Extra paper weight will not be missed. See ya'
I came across a big gold storage tub full of glassware. Two beautiful crystal bowls were revealed and I'm wondering how on earth did these end out in the garage amongst all the boxes? Beautiful crystal decorative bowls.
I remember now....when our daughter came home with a baby on her hip due to her husband abandoning them because he liked his lifestyle of partying, not paying his bills and not wanting to be married anymore...we made room in the garage for some extras. As we continued to get settled in our home, things never were gone through as they should have been. Today is the day. Our garage became our basement.
It's a sin to have so much stuff out in boxes and not know what's in them. I will get this all cleaned up and organized. I WILL...i will.
This afternoon we are hoping to have both cars full of treasures and off we shall go to Manhattan to drop our wunderful junque off...saying good bye to it for evah. FO' EVAH AND EVAH.
This is the day the LORD has made....I WILL REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT! As I put my jailhouse work clothes back on, I will continue finding out what to keep and what to get rid of. This is more than 40 items to get rid of in a month. This is a serious rummage drive to downsize. My new HOBBY is rummaging through the rummage to be a better person and contribute to society a happier person that smiles a lot 'cause she can.
God bless you as you live life,

*P.S. My sweet Husband looked up the meaning of banshee. He said he remembered from a movie this term. He read out loud that a banshee is a female fairy spirit that wails because a death is coming. I said that with us cleaning out the garage this is a death of a lifestyle. It is HEALTHY to get set free from housing all this STUFF.
ban·shee
ˈbanSHē
noun
- (in Irish legend) a female spirit whose wailing warns of an impending death in a house.
