I’ve written quite a bit about my own seizure history and epilepsy diagnosis. Something that sometimes surprises people, is my dad also has epilepsy. Of course, everyone then wants to ask if it’s genetic and I really don’t know.

My dad’s seizure history is quite different from my own. In a nutshell, I had seizures from birth through my first year or so of life. I had a difficult birth and had a subarachnoid hemorrhage as a result of birth … Read the rest

I’ll be 27 next month, but somehow I managed to live my entire life until this past weekend without ever going to a drive-in movie theater. There are less than a dozen drive in movie theaters in Michigan. Coldwater is about 45 minutes from where I live, so it’s not a terrible drive at all. I just had never managed to get there until this past weekend.

Tickets are $9 per adult which seems pretty typical, except you can stay … Read the rest

I’ve watched Teen Mom 2 since the beginning. Like any reality TV show, I get that drama is a somewhat significant part of the TV show. But this season so far has been absolutely awful. The episode I just got done watching “Drama’s for Nerds, Part 2 Hallway To Hell” was easily the worst, most pointless episode on Teen Mom.

Kail said multiple times that ‘she didn’t sign up to be on Jerry Springer’ which yes, was an annoying comment … Read the rest

I tried another amazon sample box. If you aren’t familiar with Amazon sample boxes, they are boxes of samples that you can purchase. They typically are somewhere between $7.99 to $19.99 per box. You get a credit for using in a certain product category on Amazon when you purchase. This way, if you regularly purchase from that category, the sample box kind of pays for itself.

I purchased the Women’s Skin and Hair … Read the rest

About 3 years ago I lost nearly 25 pounds by watching my calories. In the past 6-9 months, I’ve still tried to watch what I eat somewhat, but I haven’t actually counted calories. We’ve had a few stressful life events that caused us to put healthy eating on the back burner. I’ve gained about 10 pounds back from the lowest weight I maintained – or about 13 pounds back from the lowest weight I ever saw on the scale. It’s … Read the rest

I had my first little panic with my Nikon D3400 DSLR camera since I purchased it about six months ago. I went to take photos one day, and my camera said there was no memory card. I thought I had placed it in there, so I opened the slot and yep – it was there. Except the card was slightly popped out, not locked in. I pushed it in, expecting the sd slot … Read the rest

One of the games I love to play on my iPad is Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. I’ve gotten an update to latest version error on pocket camp many times in the few months that I have played the game. I get stuck in a loop between being told to check store, and then once in the store, it tells me the app recently updated and it does not show any update as available. I just loop between the two, seemingly … Read the rest

I’m roughly the same age as the girls on Teen Mom OG. I’ve watched the show since about season two, I think? At 26, I’m mildly embarrassed to still be watching the show, especially because almost all other MTV shows feel so childish to me now…but oh well.

I’ve noticed the last season or so that Catelynn and Tyler are getting a lot more ‘hate’ from people online. For a long time they were viewed as one of the more … Read the rest
