Quarantine.... Written on my phone. Yes!!




My husband has been home on quarantine since Wednesday. An electrician tested positive for Covid. The job site was shut down so 600 people are  now home. I CAN NOT GET THIS and live. 

 We have fixed up the boy’s room as the quarantine room and as I’ve been doing for nearly five weeks we are still simmering thieves oil on the stove, he’s taking cumin, garlic, zinc and vitamin C. 

The oldest boy calls me witchy and asked if I’ve hung a dead cat outside my door to keep the bad mojo away.  I say, it does not hurt to do something to support your immune system. What you can’t do is take something that boosts your immune system if you become sick. Overactive immune is what kills people when they are septic and with Covid as well so if you are taking an immune stimulater, do not continue if you feel any symptoms coming on. 

Turmeric or it’s active ingredient,curcumin, naturally cleanses your respiratory tract, it’s a natural anti-inflammatory, and relieves congestion... I could actually go on and on about it’s attributes but I’ll spare you. I throw some in with the thieves oil on the stove. Feel free to look up Thieves Oil and what’s in it and what it does. Can not hurt to do a little something extra and many of our current medications are derived from plants, including aspirin!  Even vinegar is well known for its disinfecting and healing qualities. Salt is as well. Yogurt for its probiotics! Mold for penicillin etc.. Not crazy. 

Anyway....Enough, witchy, for the day.

The om is having issues with her pregnancy. I had preeclampsia with her and she’s beginning to have symptoms as well but much earlier than I did. There’s talk about inducing at 37 wks if things stay the same, earlier if they go south. I was always told that as far as my body was concerned, I had to consider my pregnancy with OM as my first as she was the first with that father. So, while I didn’t have preeclampsia with the oldest boy, it’s not relevant to my pregnancy with OM and it can be hereditary. I had it with her and the youngest boy. While I loved pregnancy, it didn’t love me. So, we are hoping and praying that she keeps this baby in as long as they are both healthy.

I’ve decided to have my surgery reversed. I’ve really put my nose to the grindstone and tried to let my body heal the way it needs to in the time it needs and without the pressure of having to go see the doctor I’ve been able to sit with the decision and mull it over and really put some thought into without the added fear and emotion and, I’ve decided that I do not need to continue to be “brave” by putting myself through the stress, pain and mental baggage it’s producing.  I hope it’s the right decision. 

So next post I’ll talk to you about my mom’s bio family. Remember when they found me about a year ago? I haven’t given an update so I guess it’s time.

Have to go.

Night luv
