1st Week of November

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
Monday: Lando started his new prescription diet.I went to the vet and received a bit of samples. He wasn't too fond of the wet food even when mixing it with his favorite wet food but he loves the dry food.

Tuesday: Lando ate almost all the wet food I put out overnight but that was only after I made it with a special concoction with dry food and cat nip. I also worked on school and got quite a bit done!

Wednesday: Lando ate all of his wet food overnight! I went over to the family's house that I'm working on and worked on their garage for a bit. Then I made some chili, and picked up some stuff from the store, and washed the dishes.

Thursday: One year ago today Ninja passed away. I decided the best way to get through the day was to keep myself busy. I picked up some of Lando's new prescription wet food from the vet today they even found a coupon and gave me $5 off! Then I went over to the family's house and finished up their garage, finished the kitchen, and organized their boxes. It was really cold on Thursday so we closed all the windows and I did schoolwork on the couch next to the fireplace.

Friday: Friday I slept in until 07:30 instead of getting up at 06:30 like normal. It was nice to get some extra sleep in especially since I didn't get to bed until late the night before. I got Jake ready for work and got Lando and myself ready for the day. This morning he didn't want his teeth brushed nor did he want play time. So I just let him eat his breakfast and go back to sleep. I started to feel ill on Friday so I tried going to bed early. I slept awful, waking up every half hour. Part way through the night I started a fever.

Saturday: Saturday morning I realized I had the flu. I still had a fever and laid in bed all day making sure to drink lots of fluids. I made my special drink to try to help boost my immune system. 

Sunday: I was still sick on Sunday but my fever broke in the morning. I kept drinking fluids and made sure to get lots of rest. Just walking downstairs made me tired. I would have to stop half way down and rest.

So needless to say I didn't get much schoolwork or studying done this past weekend. Hopefully I can catch up this coming week.

Warrior Challenge Obstacle Course and Mud Run

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
Today my husband and I completed the Warrior Challenge Obstacle Course and Mud Run! We got there at 07:30 bright and early. Before we went I ate a little bit of fruit and packed some things we might need (lots of towels, baby wipes, eye drops, snacks for afterwards, water, and electrolytes). I really enjoyed myself and it was empowering to accomplish it! Jake and I did it together all the way through. I'm so thankful that I have such an amazing husband that is so patient with me and helped me all the way through the event. The event was just short of 6 miles. It had over ten obstacles and included mud pits and a run through the woods that was very muddy! At the end we got some free water, Gatorade, fruit, snacks, and beer! I was very surprised but my Fitbit Surge held up pretty well! The only thing is when we got sprayed with water at the end, the force of the water must have hit one of the buttons and it turned off my Fitbit. That was as we were crossing the finis...

LASIK: Three Week Review

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
So on May 27th I had my LASIK surgery! I'm going to write the great, the good, the bad, and the ugly. The Day Of The morning of the surgery I woke up very early to make the 1.5 hour drive the where the center was. They said to make sure to eat the morning of because they didn't want the valium to make my stomach upset. I managed to get some nuts, granola, and some other snacks down. I was really nervous so eating a bit was hard. If I could do it again I would have eaten an actual breakfast! I didn't eat enough and afterwards I was very nauseous. When I finally got to the clinic I waited about a half an hour after my appointment time to be seen. I wasn't in a huge hurry just very anxious and the wait didn't help. I already new what to expect but I just wanted it done and over with. I was finally called in and we went over some paperwork that I had to sign, they made sure I knew about all the risks involved, I made the payment, and then they gave me a little happ...

My First Day at GNC

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
Well today was my first day at GNC. When I asked for my days off she seemed understanding because I brought it up on the first day. However, my probation period is ninety days and I'm not allowed to use the cash register and I'm taking tests and training the whole time. So by the time I'm planning to leave and start working in a Fitness Facility I would still be on probation. I feel bad for only staying with them such a short time and them investing training into me. I'm wondering how long this will last. I plan to stick it out for a while and see how it goes. I'm not worrying about it because I know God has great plans for me and I just have to trust Him. I have applied for ten fitness facility positions on post this week and this weekend I will be applying to fitness facilities in the city that I am in. Hopefully something comes through and I can start putting my schooling and passion to use!
