Self Care – So This Woman

I’m Like a Celebrity!

Well, in one way. I am using Ozempic. I pay approximately $30 for my monthly dose, because unlike real celebrities, I get it to help better control my Type 2 Diabetes. My diabetologist has sent me to a million and one tests to check my eyes as Ozempic can contribute to retinopathy, my liver, kidneys,Continue reading “I’m Like a Celebrity!”

Egy pár gondolat a Facebook háláról

Mivel az amerikai hálaadás novemberben van, a közösségi médiát, beleértve annak magyar szegmensét is, novemberben ellepik a bejegyzések, amelyek a posztoló háláját fejezik ki. És nekem ezzel problémám van. Több is. Hogy ezek helyett minek örülnék? Ha az emberek a mindennapjaikban tudnák megosztani az örömüket és hálájukat. Ha rendben lenne, ha novemberben is beszélnének aContinue reading “Egy pár gondolat a Facebook háláról”

YouTube Really has Everything

So I don’t dance. I can’t dance. My only real public dance was my szalagavató, which is an occasion where seniors receive a little ribbon showing their years in the school and then perform choreographed dances. I was a white clown in a clown dance to the theme music of Zeffirelli’s On the Road. IContinue reading “YouTube Really has Everything”

Getting My OCD to Shut Up

After posting for 55 days straight, and slowly developing a schedule of what I want to write/post about, I realized that I spent hours in front of the computer, stressing about what to write about when the inspiration didn’t come. The stress led to an unhealthily increased level of anxiety, which ruined my productivity inContinue reading “Getting My OCD to Shut Up”

So I Bought Stickers

The last few weeks I have really gotten back into decorating my journals and stuff around me. So, being who and what I am, I impulse bought a lot of stickers. Good thing my niece, aka Halapenyó took quite a few off my hand! I feel less horrible about that expense when I know allContinue reading “So I Bought Stickers”

I found hope

Two years ago in January I got a package from North Carolina. Inside there was hope. For quite a while I was too afraid to wear this beautiful necklace, not to mention that my neck was (still is) too thick to wear the original chain. I kept it in my scriptures, trying to draw strengthContinue reading “I found hope”

Books, Books, and More Books

What books do you want to read? Oh my gosh, where do I start? Recently I really got into psychology again, including Logotherapy, so I have three different books by Victor E. Frankl I want to read, and one I need to finish. I enjoy reading Frankl’s own texts, and while I don’t necessarily subscribeContinue reading “Books, Books, and More Books”

Where is My Ink Pad When I Need It?

So I got back into journaling recently, and I started to combine it with goal setting and goal tracking. Not quite billet journal style – I lack the discipline for that, but using some of the ideas from that methodology, while I also add my own touch to it. I think my Mission President (oneContinue reading “Where is My Ink Pad When I Need It?”

Tortilla házilag

Szereted a mexikói konyhát, de kiráz a hideg a tortilla lapok árától? Drága a liszt, de még mindig olcsóbb, mint a boltban venni tortillát? Akkor ez a recept neked való! Az eredeti recept, amit valamelyik nap kipróbáltunk a misszionáriusokkal teljes kiőrlésű lisztet használt, így mi is azzal kezdtük. A 12 standard méretű tortilla lap helyettContinue reading “Tortilla házilag”
