Depo Shot

I absolutely HATE the depo birth control shot. I am eating healthier than ever and I don't eat big portions and I don't overly snack and yet the weight keeps piling on. I was 115 lbs when I got on depo and a half a year later I'm at 127 lbs, the heaviest I have EVER been in my entire left, aside from when I was pregnant. I can't wait to get off of this shit next month.

ALSO, it makes me feel sick ALL THE TIME! I constantly have headaches, feel nausea, or just feel icky. ALL side effects of the shot. I only got it because my body rejected the IUD, I forget to take the pills, the ring falls out, and I have 2 kids and want a birth control I don't want to have to think about often. So now I'm going to try Implanon. I didn't try this before depo because I didn't like the idea of having something underneath my skin but the only side effect is spotting. Its the number one birth control besides absence and last for 3 years.

For all of you girls out there avoid depo! Even if your skinny and have a fast metabolism it still causes weight gain it freaking sucks!!!!! OH! and also I just found out causes loss of calcium in women so your suppose to take calcium pills. Too bad they didn't tell me that months ago!

Nice the weight was so easy for my body to put on now once I'm off this shit I'm gonna have to work my ass off to get back to 115 lbs... stupid shot and stupid human bodies for it being so easy to gain weight and so hard to loose it.

Final Words: Depo SUCKS! Don't use it as your birth control!!!

Firefighters Stand by and Watch House Burn!

Watch the video at this link if you haven't heard this story yet:

This just amazes me. I understand that the fire department in rural areas need help to run their facilities, but to just not come out to a fire until the neighbor calls and then to just stand their and a let a families home burn. On top of that the house in flames poses a risk to the surrounding area. Especially in rural areas with lots of trees and brush. You would think that they would've responded to the fire for the sole purpose of keeping the fire from spreading, at the very least! I am sure that there are other ways that the community can keep the fire department running without a $75 fee just so they will actually respond to your call and come try to put out your house.

The news said that the firefighters were just following the law and that by law they couldn't respond to the phone call because the family didn't pay his fee. This is such bullshit. I couldn't live with myself if I were a fire fighter and I knew that a families home was burning at that moment and I was just sitting there, I'd have so much guilt even if I was following orders.

I myself live out of town, and am surrounded by tress and brush and I can't imagine having to pay a fee for them to have to go out of town to put out a fire. I mean what happens when the trees across the street catch fire and aren't on any ones property, am I at risk because if I call and didn't pay my fee they wont come out? NO! When a fire hits around here it is put out as fast as they can get out there and put it out.

There are other ways to fund a fire department, and the fact that these people had to watch their home burn and that this inst the first time that this has happened with these conditions is absurd! One of my biggest fears is actually to loose all of mine, and my kids things in a fire and the fact that this happened really pisses me off.

Well I know I'm going on and on, unfortunately I can un-burn the families home, but this is just so sad and something needs to be done, so that this doesn't happen to anyone else.

My Love-Hate Relationship with Blankets

Love.
I can't sleep without one. It's a total comfort thing, and even when its 100 degrees outside I still need one even if its just a sheet. I try to keep it as cold in my room at night as I can just so I can cuddle in a nice blanket. In the winter I get cold very easily and basically have a blanket attached to me (I should get a snuggie). I also find that at night BEFORE bed when I'm just on the couch watching a movie, even if I'm not cold I still have a blanket to cuddle up with just to keep me comfy.

Hate.
I have a huge fear of not being able to move or get out of a blanket. At night when I am sleeping if I can't get me feet/legs out I totally freak. If a friend or anyone pins me down under a blanket for fun and I can't move, I freak. I don't really understand it because I'm just fine in crowds and in small spaces, but for some reason I literally have a panic attack if stuck in a blanket.... I know its weird.

Well there its is I LOVE blankets and I hate them out of fear....
