Witty Title Here

So, I came across my Blogger page, which I apparently have had since like 2008 and I have yet to write anything..... So I figured nows a good a time as any to start.....

Where to start......

So I have been mostly unemployed for almost the last 2 years..... I've had a few temp jobs but just can't seem to find anything permanent in any of the fields I enjoy working in......

I'm 36 now, and going on 7 years ago I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes..... The meds I was on for it apparently weren't helpng and 3 months ago my Doc put me on Insulin.......
Also in the past 2 months or so I have been diagnosed with Arthritis....... And after an MRI, I found out I have 2 herniated disks in my lower back, for which I will be having a series of spinal epidurals for steroid therapy........ And all told everyday I take 17 to 21 pills plus 2 shots.......

As someone whole played organized sports since he was a wee lil lad all the way thru till I was 18...... And sure I'm a bit overweight but I'm nowhere near being obese..... And sure since I got out of high school I haven't been really active....... But I ask myself, how at 36 can I be this bad off physically??
I know people who are severely obese, eat as bad or worse than I do, are even less active than me and don't have nearly the issues I do....... I mean, it can't be all genetics can it???...... My dad didn't get the Diabetes til he was way older than I was when I got it...... My Nana had Arthritis, but she was in her 60's or 70's...... So what gives, why are all these things happening to me, and like all at once........
It's so very frustrating and discouraging because there are some things that I physically can't do or have a real hard time doing..... Which sux, cuz that means my job search is that much harder cuz I have to look for jobs that I can do with the limitations I have........

Well the semi-good news is just got a job today....... the semi-bad news is that it's only one weekend a month from next weekend to about mid-way thru December...... So it's a start, now to find something else either full time that can work around my one weekend a month, or maybe a few part time jobs that I can make a full schedule with.........
Either way I gotta find something, cuz I'm sick being broke and not being able to even little things with my kids like take them out for ice cream or anything.......

I think I've rambled on enuff for one nite.......


Catch Ya on the Flip Side!!!
