I know that it's been a while since I've updated this personal log. On my book blog, I mentioned having some health issues. Specifically, I was diagnosed with a heart arrhythmia called SVT back in January. I had an ablation surgery to correct it in March and today was my follow up appointment. Everything is a-okay. No further appointment required unless needed for an unlikely reoccurrence. The doctor is rather confident of the success rate. Which is good for my wallet. Let me tell you, having medical issues can be expensive.
Speaking of medical issues, I decided to have something checked out today. I was having issues with my menstrual cycle being out of whack so I took the opportunity to go to the urgent care clinic (where I usually go since I haven't been to my primary care physician since I was a kid). Turns out, I have a REALLY BAD UTI. Which is strange to me, since I have experience pain of any kind or any other symptom in that department. So I'm on a rigorous antibiotic for that plus I'm back on birth control to help regulate my period.
Meanwhile, I may or may not have attempted to part on a concrete pillar today, which may or may not have resulted in the damaging of my new car's fender. I feel like I have been a mess recently. We just finished my subject's bout of state testing, which was an ordeal that makes it seem as though impaling myself with dull, rusty nails rather enjoyable by comparison.
I've felt tired. But that may be from the infection. Goodness knows how long that's been going on.
I'm getting married in less than six months! I'm excited for that! there's not much for me to do wedding planning wise at this moment but I feel like I've been slacking.
Also, I've been trying to work on my book stuff. Writing, hiring illustrators. I've got 2 children's books in the works. Plus 2 novels, one of which will also have illustrations. When I get to finishing it. But I had looked into putting my currently published books into a independent fantasy database. The organizer of this reached out to me and offered me some suggestions, sprucing up my book descriptions and giving them new covers. I spent a while pondering on his words and eventually took his advice. I've been hiring Sarah from Sprinkles on Top Studios to redo my old covers and design my new ones. I think she has done a fantastic job with them. As it just so happened, she has a fiance who also specializes in book editing and writing blurbs. He's already written the first one, which I think is FANTASTIC. I think this has been the best investment for my books so far. I've already had one book blogger agree to read and review my book because she thought my new cover was gorgeous.
I'm trying to write, I'm trying to write. But I've been bombarded with these other responsibilities and urges. I've recently started playing Overwatch, intrigues as I was watching Jamie play it. It's really the only game that I've ever really played that uses a PvP and first person shooter style that I've actually gotten into. I've been playing around with different characters. I can't really say I have a favorite. I like Roadhog, Orisa, Mercy, Moira, Brigitte, and Reaper. And there are others I'm practicing with. It's hard to just pick one favorite.
Recent films I have seen:
Super Troopers 2 (I never saw the first one. Jamie says it doesn't live up to the first movie)
A Quiet Place (THIS MOVIE WAS SO AMAZING. AND I DON'T LIKE HORROR/SUSPENSE)
Films I'm going to see TOMORROW NIGHT OMG YES AVENGERS INFINITY WAR. Such excite
