Fun, introspective part of journal
Alright, I'm kicking the cranky. Should I give up soda, cigarettes, and being cranky for Lent? LOL I have to laugh because on my facebook profile where you can write a little blurb about yourself under your picture, I wrote, "I am usually very cranky." I'm trying to remedy that. I think maybe my cranky was a defense mechanism because I didn't like myself.

Segueway: My mom told this morning that she can see a difference in my physically. She told me she wasn't worried about my appearance, but about my health. I always tried to act like it didn't bother me. I was always the girl who made fun of my friends who were on a neverendnig stream of diets. Made fun of is the wrong terminology, but I can't think of anything better to use at this moment. I wasn't happen though, I tried telling myself I was, but I wasn't. So, to hear my mom say that I was looking better, felt good. My dad, also said that I didn't look what I weigh now. He tries to be supportive, but he always messes it up, by following his compliment about my weight with "you better keep it up." He's not being a jerk, just himself, so I laugh it off.

Yoga last night was insane, there were about 50 people there, it has NEVER been that crowded. I ruled at chair pose, so that made me happy, and I also had my chest against my legs in a front fold which made me feel good. For not going for so long, being able to get back into the swing of things felt good. But I was up this morning, which stinks, I don't understand how I could have gained .6lbs when I took an intense yoga class the night before. Beets, any advice?

Serious part of journal

Well, I was able to FINALLY get an appointment and get the ball rolling on Charity Care. Of course the appointment isn't until March 12th, so I'll have more time to think it over and dwell on it and have it drive me crazy. I have to go and get an ultrasound. I had my appointment at Planned Parenthood on Saturday and they found a lump. I think that's why I haven't 100% been myself. And with my employer not offering insurance I have so much more to worry about. But everything seems to be falling into place with being able to get the services done that I need. Soon, all I'll have to worry about is the results.

End Serious part of journal

Be glad it got detected now, instead of later. I've some similar issues, it's very nervewracking. I have a friend that has a fibroid the size of a grapefruit. She is having it removed soon. Stuff like that will usually end up benign and easy to remove. You will be fine. Stay strong.

Love your whole journal entry!! Family can be funny. I too have received those strange back-handed compliments from time to time and your way of dealing with it is excellent. Hopefully the lump will be "nothing" of concern. The process is anxiety provoking at best. Been there, done that, have the t-shirt (more than one actually!!!). You are doing very well and I love that you are embracing your "crankiness" and making some peace and sense out of it. I am having one of those "off" days today ... and your comments about being cranky brought a smile to my face. It does my heart good to know I am not alone.
