I may be going blind!!!...and photo challenge

hmmm, these challenges sure know how to ask the right questions at the right time. todays blogtember question is: a story about when you were afraid. whoa!


i will have to say that this story begins now. i am currently afraid about my left eye. i am hoping there is nothing wrong with it and it will soon either quickly or overtime heal and get back to seeing correctly. i went to the ER in July and took some antibiotics halfway into my 10 day dose, my left eye became really blurry and very difficult to see out of. the weird thing is, this antibiotic has no eye problem side effects. but it is such a coincidence. my eyes were fine a week earlier before my ER visit and i had a full eye exam and all checked out well. i am scared. it has been almost 2 months and nothing had cleared up, although, it has not gotten worse. when both eyes are open, it is okay. when i shut my left eye and look out my right, it is ok. when i close my right eye and look out my left ...PROBLEMS!!! i hope the retina specialist can figure out what it is and offer a method that will work. i do not and cannot go blind!!! i will find out next week. please keep me and this issue in your thoughts, prayers, and send positive vibes. thank you! **what do you think it could be?

FatMumSlim photo challenge: getting ready



also doing this blog hop with "Feeling Beachie" and filling in blank with the 4 questions!

Photobucket 
1. life happens
2. i hate when you get all cozy under the covers in bed and realize you forgot something like to turn off the fan. i am too comfy sometime to get up!
3. the bravest thing i have ever done is stand up for my brother against some of his college teacher and the vice president at the school. you cannot and will not stop a child from learning because you as a teacher happen to not like him. i was successful with it!
4. i like my iced coffee with cream and sugar

3 months off/ Photo Challenge

Blogtember Challenge question: if you could take 3 month off from life currently, what would you do? hmmm, i think this is a fairly basic answer, i would go and travel (this is also assuming that money was not an object). i would travel the continents, South America, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Europe. I would also catch up on a lot of sleep too and get some serious studying done for either my next move in academics for a PhD or medical school. wow! my 3 months is jam packed!! what would you do with 3 months off??

Challenges galore!

well, it is September and i am doing another challenge. i am a glutton for punishment right? ha! this one is called. Blogtember and it starts today and goes on through the 30th of this month! i am doing the photo challenge too with FatMumSlim as well. enjoy! also...wow! this is post 300 too!

  

day 1 prompt: describe where and what you came from:

oh this is a good one. i am an african-america woman. the real deal so to speak ha! my parents and family are from Nigeria, but my brother and i were born and raised in America, mostly in the state of Florida. i have a lot of culture in me. as i have gotten older i have come to appreciate my mother and dad, we are very close now, and i have come to appreciate the food and music of my culture. i love the clothes, they are so colorful. i know how to work things out and fix it rather than run away. i think my love appreciates this trait in me. i am willing to compromise and admit my mistakes to make not only a better me, but a better "us".

Need Advice, Happy Labor Day and Photo Challenge (2)

happy labor day! blog challenge starts tomorrow for me again and it should be fun! you all get to learn so much about me. for now...Happy Labor Day! 
 

question for you all-how do you cope/deal with it when your significant other is upset. they say it is not you, but somehow you feel it really is you that caused the sudden mood change. what advice do you all have. also add in, they are not in the mood to talk to you or it seems anyone about what is going on. always seems to be "aggrivated" what the heck does that mean and aggrivated at what?? sorry for the vent, but i am stuck on what to do? i need a good blog hop (LOL)!

Photo challenge day 2 with FatMumSlim-what does your name start with? my name starts with "O" this pic is beautiful and just got the shape of the "O" just right! what does your name start with?
