Bad! I’ve had all these things happening and didn’t post them. I have just been so busy with a lot of stuff that I literally didn’t have time to sit down and blog about it. By the time evening came ’round I was pooped and just wanted to go to bed.
I’ll do a bullet update list.
- Next week a personal trainer is going to kick my ass in the first try out session. Yes I’m switching to a personal trainer.
- I have been doing research on my family, going generations back – if that one link between my grandfather and great grandfather and great-great grandfather works out – there’s a couple dozen entries and we’re not quite sure which is which. IF it works out… I am an 11th generation, and more if I go back before 1700’s.
- Random: you can now formspring.me! So ask those questions already!
- I received a copy of my medical history and it seems that there is a missing link or two. Since I clearly remember having my wrist split open because I hit a garbage bag and had to go to hospital – and yet it is not in the medical history overview.
- I also received a copy of my mother’s medical history, including her autopsy report (which, according to my family physician I shouldn’t even have gotten that information, but whatever, I still got it), and found out what it exactly was that killed my mother. Plus, I found out that there was severe degeneration of the aorta valves, which the coroner could not depict if that was from the infarction or if that had been going on a while…
- … and because my mother’s biological brother also had an infarction of which he died… I am going to discuss the option of getting an ultrasound to check if I may have the same thing. BUT I am not sure if I want that or no.
- Speaking of biological family…. I am in the process of submitting a form to an organization that will help me search for my mother’s biological family and in turn possibly find out if there was indeed a heart problem in the family… and hopefully why the hell they gave my mother away.
- Random: This is way too cute for words.
- I now have TWO leaks in the basement… FML
- I am getting laser therapy for Hirsutism – thankfully it is not that excessive as some people, and only in the beard area, but enough it requires me to shave and thus mess up my skin, which is more worrisome than the actual hair. and yes… I JUST TOTALLY ADMITTED THIS ON MY BLOG. GET OVER IT
Yeah, I’d say that’s about it for now.
My genetics and family history is one thing I never had to worry about being adopted and all. Whenever those lovely forms ask about my family history, I get to write a great big “I AM ADOPTED” across it and not glance again. It’s awesome.
