Four Thousand Days

In just a little over two weeks it will be eleven years since Mr. Virgo died unexpectedly. Today marks another threshold…4,000 days. Four thousand days ago, I couldn’t have imagined ever living through it let alone to find a life. A happy life. Time is sneaky it can crawl or it can fly. I’ve learned to live in the present while remembering the past. Sometime’s it honestly feels as though I never had him. Others…it’s like it was yesterday. I’ve navigated the past, created a beautiful present and still have hope for the future. 

Mr. FixIt and I had a lovely day yesterday. It rained a lot with lightning and thunder and fog. It was the perfect kind of at-home day with my sweetie. I knitted for a while working on the mittens. I chatted with friends and participated in my brother’s yearly evaluation via video chat. I made salmon patties for supper. And knitted some more. 

Last night when I was taking my evening meds, I sat down and really looked at all the vitamins, supplements, and medications I’m taking. I thought I was just taking 1000iu of Vitamin D. Turns out I was taking 3000iu daily! Up till just a couple of months ago, I was taking 4000iu. It’s no wonder I was spilling calcium in my urine.. I’ve stopped everything with Vit D in it but my women’s 50+ multivitamin. And I made an executive decision. If you stop everything, you don’t know which thing you stopped really made the difference. There are so many positive benefits I’ve discovered from RYZE. I quit the one with Chaga, but I’m not quitting RYZE till I see if the other changes have fixed the calcium issue. 

I haven’t had a single anxiety attack since I started RYZE. No more muscle cramps. No more joint pain. No more reflux. No more sleepless nights. I really don’t want to go backwards. It’s only for six months and if all the other changes don’t make a difference, I’ll totally quit. That being said, I was a happy little camper yesterday morning when I took that first sip of the elixir of the gods.

We have to go with what Spirit tells us. I really feel this is what I’m supposed to do.

”For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.“

Jeremiah 29:11 NIV
