Rumble On - I mean Ramble

I'm just going to start typing & see where it leads me! LOL... actually there is one thing I want to say for sure... & that is I am working on a Secret Santa project... I hope to unveil it tomorrow :)

Another thing is, I just haven't rambled to you all in a while... I've been chatting it up with a friend & I just haven't really wanted to bore anyone with my troubles.

Troubles, what troubles you ask? Well, compared to some friends, my problems are minor. However, because it affects me, they seem more major than minor.

(Ok, I am tired, that I am not wanting to be creative with my words... so, I'll just TALK!!)

My main problem, I've mentioned before... I am SICK & TIRED OF BEING SICK & TIRED!!

I know, I know, you're all probably tired too... tired of hearing me complaining! I just don't know what is wrong with me! Not sure if it's lack of sleep some days & too much other days...

Or if my thyroid is still screwy. Speaking of, I had to stop my meds for about 3 weeks until the week after Thanksgiving because of a special scan. (That reminds me, I need to call the doctor tomorrow to get the results. I assume nothing is wrong, because no one has called to tell me so.)

ANYWAY, I have been back on my meds for 2 weeks now. I thought I would have notice a change by now... but I'm still having more bad days than good!

My bad days are days I can't seem to get moving and / or fight with a major headache. The only thing I feel like doing is turning on SenCi (my laptop) & surf the net. (With the tv on for noise.) Sometimes I'll mess around with my site & maybe talk with a couple friends... but even then it's not much.

Very bad days... I won't even turn the tv on... then you know IT'S A BAD DAY!!

On good days I have WAY too much energy! For example... this past Saturday, our yearly HOG Christmas Party. Maybe it's because I slept most of the day before getting up & getting ready for the party. And maybe it was because I was a bundle of nerves... I think that's because I did not go on any of the rides this year... because... well, I've just been plain tired, or just scared!

Scared, because I am going to wreck the bike. I mean... come on, my ability to ride at all is only from the "natural feeling" of knowing what to do. (Oh, if you didn't know, I didn't start riding until 2001 & that is part of my memory block.) So, like working on the computer, it's just going to take time to get used to again.

I do have to say, the few times I was on the bike, it felt GREAT! Why shouldn't it... it's a HARLEY!!!

Anyway, we were at the party & I think I may have over done it a bit... I just hope that those who I've talked to realize some of the "hyperness" was due to the alcohol I had. (I didn't drink THAT much... but enough for me! & Yes, hubby drove!) I just know that I feel a little bit embarrassed because I couldn't stop talking. (Kind of like now! LOL)

I did tell just about anyone who talked with me that I hoped to get back to riding this next year. & I told them I've been dealing with depression.

Amazingly enough they were all supportive! So, all & all, I enjoyed the party! I think all the "pumping" myself up about it came to a boil... add a couple kamikazes & watch out!!

NO, I did not end up dancing on any tables! I did however do a little bit of the "Electric Slide"! I feel bad, because one of my friends requested it for me & I didn't hear it 'til it was almost over!... Well, I am glad, though! I usually get embarrassed 1/2 way through the song, because I'm goofing it up or I'm way off beat. This way, I didn't get the chance to mess up! LOL

I can't believe after all these years I still remember how to do the "Electric Slide"! Keep in mind most things feel like it's been 10 years or so since I've done it, seen it, or even thought about it!

Another thing I wanted to mention is that I am in the "playoffs" for my FFL league I created! And guess who I beat the 1st week in the playoffs... MY HUBBY!! ROTFLMTO!!! This is my 1st year & also he beat me TWICE during the regular season! So, this is a big victory for me! I'm just shocked to still be in it!

I'm also in another league... a much tougher one & I made it to the 1st week in playoffs there & lost... but, it's not over just yet... they have a "consolation" brackets for the 5th thru 8th place players. The guy I am playing this week is projected to have 112 points to my measly 81 points. So, it will be interesting to see if I get to move on & fight for 5th place or not! :) Either way, I am again shocked I've made it this far!

I guess you have to be a football fantasy fan to even begin to comprehend the above! LOL :)

Ok, I think I've gone on way more than enough! (It's easier to talk here than with someone on the phone... maybe because I'm only moving my hands... when talking with someone in person or on the phone... I'm moving a lot more body parts! LOL)

I must be tired, because I am going to end it here & not put any graphics in this blog. I just have to find one for the title. HarHmf!

As another one of my friends put it earlier... Have a COZY night!! :)

  1. Wow ... I got tired just reading this lot.

    You say you are always tired, and have a "screwy" thyroid ... which suggests an underactive thyroid .. and you would have been prescribed Thyroxine for this condition (I suffer from this - it is called Hypothyroidism). However, your energy level isn't too low, because you are still able to find the mental wherewithall to type up a storm. When I am tired with this condition I can barely find the energy to turn on the computer, let alone create an interesting blog!

    Well done ladyharley, don't give in to it.

  2. Oh, I know that's what I have. (You're new to my blog... so I'll fill you in personally) :) :)

    As for typing up a storm... well that was all I could do... maybe that's why when I am typing I can't move anything else... like my legs. They feel heavy & like someone is holding them down. & Sometimes I will "space" out. That's one of the reason I wrote this blog... because I don't know if that's normal or not!

    As mentioned... there are very bad days that I have a problem just getting out of bed!

    I've had Hypothyroidism since 1992 & have been taken Synthroid since then.

    I still think it's a combination of that & something else I have called Arnold Chiari Malformation (ACM). I'll tell you more about that personally too!

    Also, keep in mind we can save drafts of our blog... so it could have been (but not in this case) a blog I was working on other days.

    Ok, enough for a reply... I'll send you a personal message in a few :)
