That Karen is Such a DB

Well, good day to you all readers. I'm kind of back, but let's be honest, not really. At this point, I feel like a lip service friend. "Oh hey all, thanks for stopping by, I'll write tomorrow and keep you all informed and it will be awesome and great," and then nothing. I am sure we all have THAT friend. I am sure I am THAT friend. Does anyone listen to Dane Cook? I am totally Karen these days.

Anyways, all is well with the TB meds. I DID however go through all my multivitamins, so I need to pick up another bottle. I also meet up with the NP for ANOTHER monthly appointment this Thursday, to make sure everything is in tick-tock shape. On top of ALL of that, I am scheduled to have blood work done this month, to make sure my liver hasn't taken a major dive-bomb in function.

I won't say I am looking forward to meeting with the NP this month. Not only do I deal with her as a working on site NP, but I also actually work WITH her once in a while. There are some butting heads with some issues involving our two parties and I am kind of in the middle. I have a meeting with her tomorrow, not concerning my latent TB. We will see how it goes. If I walk away after kidney punching her, you can assume it didn't go well. I am hoping to come out on top here with some extra monies in my pocket. One can be optimistic, no?

That's it. That's all I have for you today. Be well all.

An Atmosphere that Could Kill

There is a BIG audit at work on Friday. It is actually a pretty big deal, and a lot could be at stake, if things go badly. I really don't suspect they will, but that is because of my very calm demeanor this week.

As people around me are stressed and freaking out, I am staying calm. I HAVE TO. For my well being, of course. Stress can be very detrimental to someone's health and can weaken the immune system's response, causing someone to get sick. That is why a lot of people get sick after stressful periods (ie: college finals). Let's just say I never got sick in college.

My latent TB could develop into active and I cannot let that happen. Because TB is the most harmful in weak immune responsive individuals, stress could be a really bad thing. I am not worrying myself in a frenzy one bit. This sounds a lot like college actually. I am staying calm for my health. *You think I WANT to be this calm, while everyone else is running amok? I have to be in tip-top condition when the auditing group does their site visit this week. I have to mentally be my strongest. All I can do is diligently take my daily medication and stay completely calm and in control. I am doing everyone a favor.

Everyone, stay calm, in control, and healthy.

*I was freaking a few months ago.
