I am awake bc I fell asleep at about 7pm last night....i was SO tired. I had a very important doctor appt yesterday where I had to get blood drawn and tested (again...as usual) to check my Iron and B levels because I'm anemic. Which is something I was diagnosed with in Jan 2012. I thought oh it's no big deal...just take some iron pills and B vitamins and be on my way...not so simple...yet. I've been having issues with fatigue in general for months but I sort of down played it and now I cant anymore. It's like on a different level now. My doctor told me to add in some orange juice or vitamin C to get some acid to mix in with my supplements. It's been so long since I've had orange juice I was like yikes i need to add that in pronto so I went to the grocer's and got a sack of huge juicy california navel oranges (and they were on sale at SuperOne). I also had to do my regular grocery shopping too so I completed that which I'm so glad I got a bulk of that completed. However, I have found myself being obsessed with spices and seasonings now. Fresh seasonings too not just dried. I feel like I've just discovered a whole new world lol. Grant it, being from southeast louisiana spices are not foreign to me (at all) but i usually buy the same kinds and keep it moving. Now, i want to experiment lol! I really look up what each spice or seasoning is for and what it should tatse like. I am really thinking that a small window spice garden may be in my future this year. Plus, it may save me money. Oh! I bought some pop corn. I was so excited bc I love popcorn and I only buy things in bulk so it I dont see it in economy size, I dont get it (for example: i have enough camelia red beans to feed a small army lol). I found some smart balance popcorn but when I popped a bag, I could only eat half of it...my taste for pop corn has left me. i am really surprised by that actually. I did buy 30 pounds of frozen mixed veggies though and I'm so excited about that. All in all, it was a successful day yesterday. I should get my blood test results back no later than Monday so I can get the changes I need to my current supplements for my anemia. I feel positive about it and today will be positive too. :))
