Makeup Monday

Hi everybody I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  I know I got to spend some amazing time with my family.  So here we are on a beautiful and wonderful Monday where I will be showing a makeup look.  As a mom we sometimes don't take care of our selves and just do the minimum.  It is important that we take care of our selves and try to at least one day out of the week focus on us.  It does not have to be make up.  But it can be something that we love to do. For me it is make up, I have always had a passion for it and sharing it.  It brings me joy and helps me feel better about myself.  Being a mom is exhausting, we care so much about our kids, husbands and the people around us.  We are always there for them.  But how much are we there for us? How much do we really care for us?  We need to be first to be able to give the better version of us. So give your self a few minutes a week to enjoy yourself. You deserve it!

11 Day Migraine

Hi Welcome back to my life! I hope you all had a great weekend.  I actually did, it was my son's birthday weekend.  My oldest turned 7.  It was a very nice weekend for the most part.  I can't remember most of it to be quite honest, no I was not drunk or on any un-prescribed drugs.  I have been dealing with a migraine sense August 12th.  I don't think anybody that came over my house noticed much of a difference I was talking and trying my best to act normal.  There were moments I would zone out and had no idea what was going on but for the most part I pushed through.  It started August 12th as we were at the park catching pokemons. lol Yes we play Pokemon Go.  My husband got me hooked on that game.  I started feeling some vertigo and a mild migraine nothing major.  I took my meds and didn't think much of it.  The next day I felt worse. I felt like I couldn't get out of bed.  The light bothered me, the noise I just did...

MTHFR Mutation and me!

MTHFR is a DNA mutation that is not commonly checked on a regular check up or regular blood work.  But thankfully this year (2018) thanks to my new and wonderful Neurologist she suggested I saw a Hematologist.  He ran 18 tubes of blood and multiple test I had never had done before.  There I was told it seemed like I had a mutation on MTHFR.  But requested for all the lab work to be done again to make sure it was correct and come back in a month.  The labs take about 3 weeks to be processed.  At at that point I found some relief but also fear.  I had no idea what I was dealing with I got a packed of information with the title:   Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase catalyzes Mutation. The title it self freaked me out!!  But I did as much research as I could in that month.  It seems as if this condition was just discovered in 2006. So there is no cure for it, not a lot of information either but the Doctors are just treating the symptom...

Pho Feel'n Asian

Pho Feel'n Asian has opened its doors in Gastonia NC.  If you want to try great pho and some authentic Asian cuisine give this local restaurant a try.  The pho had amazing flavor and variety.  My husband had the meat, I tried the tofu.  Ones I started eating it there was no way I could stop, even after I was full.  I also tried their iced coffee and it was one of the best coffee's I have had in the Gastonia area.  On top of their great food, the staff was very friendly and kind.  I went with my three children (7, 6 and 4 year old.)  They were very patient, friendly and helpful with the kids.  They don't have a kids menu but many of the Gastonia restaurants don't seem to have one. Yet it is family friendly and from a price point is also very affordable.  I do recommend it, whether you have tried pho before or not.  Go support a family owned local business and see the community around you grow!
