Hormones Out Of Whack

Blogs are helpful. Let me tell you the many reasons why they are helpful.

• You can make new friends. Blogger friends. That you may or may not ever actually see in real life. I am lucky enough to have met a handful since I live in Utah (aka. Blogger Capital of the World) but to all my friends that live in a different state, I wish us luck in meeting.
• I always have someone to talk to. Either responding to a comment or leaving a comment.
• Sometimes you get free stuff. Which is awesome.
• My head is a lot more clear because everything I feel cluttered in there goes into a blog post... and then you have to try and decipher it.
• You can learn a lot from other blogs. Cooking, crafting, fashion, makeup.... all sorts of things.
• Self esteem boost. Whats up 600 followers that I don't even know but somehow you are reading all about my life... you are awesome.
• And the final way... which brings me to the importance of my post... a blog can help you realize when your hormones need to be checked.

How did I know my hormones needed to be checked? Besides my insomnia, weight gain, mood swings, and headaches.... my blog helped me figure it out. How you ask? Because I used to be funny. I used to be put into any situation and I could make it funny. Whether it was getting my hair cut, getting an extremely awkward security check, reliving my dating past, or having a claw for a hand. All which are normal. I could make people laugh in my posts. Here. Let me give you an example of the comments I used to get:

That is right people. Even Gentri Lee thinks I am funny. Now these are the comments I get.

In case you didn't get it... that means nothing. Zero. Nada. The big goose egg. I get hardly any comments anymore. And I think it is because I haven't been writing funny things... that is what brought you all in the first time. And I don't write funny things because I am emotional. And why am I emotional? Well. Web MD told me I might need my hormones checked. So what did I do? I got my hormones checked. And my blog was right. My hormones were off balance. So here is to a few pills and hoping that I can get back to the women I once was. A huge shout out to all my followers and blogger friends and of course my blog. Because without all of you... I might not have known to get my hormones checked. Even though I probably would have because this weight gain thing (my insulin levels were off the chart) is CA-RAZY! And I am not liking having gained 20 pounds in the last 8 months.

Love,
