Yes we make jokes about our Mammograms and they actually used to feel like the garage door had closed down on them. Now it is a must have yearly if you really would like to be a woman who cares about your body. I am heading to get my yearly mammogram and yes I blog about it to remind women around the world to schedule theirs. It might just save your life.
I schedule my GYN exam and my yearly physical within the same week of each other each year so that I do not forget. Then I schedule my Mammogram at my yearly physical to get my referral. That way once a year my body has been through the microscope and I am finished and do not have to worry for another year.
Have you made your appointment? Get on the phone. It may save your life.
So my rash cleared up thanks to a shot and 14 days of antibiotic. Within a few days it was back and stronger yet.
Luckily I had a scheduled follow up visit with the doctor any ways so I dragged my body in there yesterday.
Trust me, I would have rather have stayed in bed. Every joint in my body aches. The change in weather has not helped.
Our visit was quite interesting as she sat and listened and saw the rash again, noticed that I still had difficulty breathing.
We discussed the blood test that had been drawn for my pre allergy test. I found it odd that it suddenly showed that I was
now allergic to beef, pork and milk…on a severe level. As she put it guess what they are fed…corn…so she felt that it was
not odd at all.
I am now in the process of being tested for a problem called Alpha Gal.
According to http://alpha-gal.org/ :
Lone Star Tick
Galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose, or Alpha-Gal for short, is a delayed allergy to mammal meat affecting a growing number of the population. This allergy is initially caused by a tick bite. Since the reaction to eating mammal meat is delayed by several hours, the proper diagnosis is often missed or misdiagnosed. People who are afflicted with the Alpha-Gal allergy have to be constantly vigilant about the ingredients they consume, because an allergic reaction can be severe and life-threatening.
By getting the attention of the food service industry, particularly in schools, colleges and universities, and restaurants, sufferers will get relief. Adding beef broth to soup and calling it vegetable soup or adding bacon drippings to gravy can be life-threatening to people with the Alpha-Gal allergy. By including Alpha-Gal allergy information on menus or even more specifically, having ingredient lists available upon request, the constant worry will be eliminated from eating out.
AGAA will strive to empower those with this allergy. Living with the Alpha-Gal allergy can be quite stressful, because many activities are planned around food, and it is often almost impossible to know the ingredients in many dishes. This problem can render a simple meal into an anxiety-provoking situation for people with the allergy, because they are very aware of the possibility they could be unknowingly ingesting food that contains an undisclosed allergen. By getting attention for this allergy, it is AGAA’s hope that those affected will be better able to cope with this allergy, due to others’ increased awareness and subsequent conscientiousness regarding food preparation.
The mission of Alpha-Gal Allergy Awareness team is to promote health and ultimately, save the lives of those afflicted with the Alpha-Gal allergy through increased allergy awareness.

I am now on an antibiotic for the next fourteen days and I had to get another shot. Now I have to go for a series of blood tests and see an allergist.
Perhaps after this I will begin to feel a little better and my body will begin to stop aching. Guess I will never be able to enjoy red meat or pork or dairy again.
There goes my bacon cheeseburgers. Needless to say I have a big pot of homemade chicken noodle soup cooking. My biggest fear is what did they feed the chicken.
I am not a person who can just sit idle in a doctor’s office without getting antsy.
I love to take my crocheting with me so that I have something to keep me busy and keep my mind off of why we are there.
I have found that it keeps me focused and makes the time go by so much faster.
We had several weeks of back to back appointments so here is my creations.
My inspiration was the scarf that Mikey had as a challenge at https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Crochet-Crowd/116482731742088 The Crochet Crowd.
A hat to keep my head warm. Fingerless Gloves with a hat of their own lol. The shimmering heart scarf.
Some of my projects that I am working on are just too large to transport so I have to find little things to fill the void.
With my Kindle Fire I can download my pattern and take it with me.
I have also picked up many new prospective students too, who want to learn to do what I am making.
Let me know how I am doing so far…would love to hear from you.
What is your latest project? Share it with me please.

Write about evil: how you understand it (or don’t),
what you think it means, or a way it’s manifested,
either in the world at large or in your life.
Photographers, artists, poets: show us EVIL.
My daughter shared a video that she is covering with her class this coming week. I think that video says it all.
What can we do to delete the negative energy in our lives.
If we share positive energy with others it becomes contagious.

To participate, tag your post with DPchallenge and include a link to this post, to generate a pingback and help others find the challenges. Please make sure your post has been specifically written in response to this challenge. We’ll highlight some of our favorites on Freshly Pressed on Friday, and in our monthly newsletter.
For this week’s writing challenge, channel your inner Abigail Von Buren. Experiment with the question and answer format. Taking inspiration from a question you’ve been asked recently, whether in conversation with a friend or sent in from a reader, don your best counselor hat and share your expertise.
Not up for kickstarting your career as an advice columnist? We’ve got a few more ways to help get you involved with this week’s focus on advice.
I give lessons on Cooking, Crocheting, Sewing and Knitting on a regular basis. I do not feel this is classified as advice. It is simply someone who has worked the problem successfully at a prior time who is able to lend a helping hand to someone who has never walked that mile yet.
Helping a friend who is a new mother and is nursing her first baby my advice is very simple. The baby will let you know when things are not quite right. If things are flowing in a set pattern and routine then life is good. The plumber never puts in new pipes if there is not a problem.
If a problem is not going to make a difference a year from now, perhaps it does not need to be a top priority on the list. A lot of problems have a way of working themselves out on their own without doing anything but praying for the correct way for God’s will to be done. I always to suggest to pray for three days on the same subject before making a decision. This gives a person time to think with a clearer head and thought patterns.
Just thinking before you speak as to how it will have an effect on others will sometimes change the wording that would have otherwise been blurted out.
Remembering others and that they have feelings that can get hurt. To never speak when angry and to bite the tongue if it is going to be a cruel comment will save on an embarasing moment later on.
What questions as my reader would you like to see answered here?
Submit your questions and I will be glad to honestly answer them for you. (Or find a great source for your answer)
TammyeHoney’s Advice column is now open to her readers.
Bring on the questions….
I am ready and waiting..

My hubby has a special nephew.
He can be a bit overwhelming at times.
He is now in his thirties. He lives with his mom and grandparents.
My hubby says that I am funny when I deal with him.
I insist that he uses respect.
His family says that he can’t remember from day to day.
I disagree.
It is funny that he can now remember that when I answer the phone, the only way he can speak with his uncle is to call him by Uncle, not his first name.
When I answer, he knows that if he does not, he will not talk to him.
Today he called with the request for me to look up a word and give him the definition.
The word was does.
Forty five minutes later, I hung up the telephone knowing that he finally understood the meaning.
I took the time with him, using the word in sentences.
I also got across the point of various tenses, pronouns and verbs associated that were confusing him.
I did not have to do this.
I could have just hung up the phone after I told him his uncle was sleeping.
It did not take away from my day at all to spend the 45 minutes with him.
He was happy when he hung up.
He was no longer aggrivated like he had been when he first called.
I never asked why he needed to know.
I decided that the can of worms that had brought on the frustration just needed to be calmed.
By his being satisfied with the answer, his day will now be better.
He will have a calmer day.
In turn, so will the others who live with him.
Why this could not have been done on his end remains a mystery.
Perhaps a dictionary for Christmas will be a nice gift.
Sometimes all a person needs in life is to know that somewhere they have a friend who will listen…

Tell us about the last book you read (Why did you choose it? Would you recommend it?).
To go further, write a post based on its subject matter.
Photographers, artists, poets: show us WORDS.
I have had two books sitting on my shelf that I have been reading. For some reason, reading does not come as easy to me now that I am older as it did in my youth.
Not counting my Kindle subscription for http://www.magazines.com/crochet-today
I read that every month when it comes out as I have students who need new patterns. I also did not include all my cookbooks as they are reference books.
http://www.amazon.com/Eat-Pray-Love-Everything-Indonesia

The most intriguiging book that I actually did audio was debated when I was in college and I was in the Literary Guild. I was on the panel and due to the book being auditory I picked up a lot that the basic reader on the panel did not.
http://www.amazon.com/Horse-Whisperer-Nicholas-Evans
The audio version was more indepth and you could feel what the author was getting across by the tones of the voices. I do not kiss and tell so you are on your own to find out details. I am not the person who sits in the room and tells you the ending of the movie before it is over.
My next purchase is to get the two hard cover books on audio. I seem to actually get through books much better that way. Since my kindle died due to being plugged into the wrong outlet, I have to decide what new one I want to get. That will start me on my way to my audio adventure.

What is your book that you are currently reading? Do you have one you are struggling through? Let me hear about it.

Write a review of your life — or the life of someone close to you — as if it were a movie or a book.
Photographers, artists, poets: show us LIFE.
Our story opens in a small town outside of Buffalo NY. It is hard times. Life is not easy in the 50’s, a couple with seven children.
Working in the Bethlehem Steel Mill is the job that is available. It is a hard dirty job. Luckily it is a job and puts food on the table.
As the family grows so do the bonds between each of the family members.
Being the baby of the family, at eighteen he goes off to war to do three tours. He meets a gal from New York State and starts a family of his own.
They go through good times and bad times. The children grow up and start families of their own.
He becomes divorced.
He is a unique person. Some days in a world of his own. He decides to become married again and start a different life.
Some of the old life still creeps in and haunts him.
He tries hard to cope with it from day to day.
Just like his gnome…he travels through life with each day being a new adventure. Coping with the past, yet looking forward to what tomorrow will bring.
This is Eman, my hubby. A life in review. So many pages undisclosed. A mystery to my readers. A must see the movie or read the book to get the juicy details.
Enjoy.
