yo i love pony going to haiti headcanons

I NEED A PART WHERE PONY MEETS CURLY’S FAMILY😩

WOOOO ANOTHER EXCUSE TO KEEP UP W THE HCS YEAAAAA

•part of the family still in haiti lives in like cap-haitien and the other part lives in the countryside of haiti

•pony already wants to be in the countryside canonically, ik he would love the countryside of haiti

•he likes the scenery, he helps take care of their donkey, he likes helping to farm, and bro even helped at the market when they had to sell their product, he made a good impression on em ik they loved him

•they r pretty chill, simple ppl, pony likes the quiet

•only thing he rlly had to get uses to was showering there bc he had to use the stream near by to shower or somethin

•NOW w the family in cap-haitien, theyre way more to handle, got about 3 bald sons, ik they bad as hell😭😭

•the way pony dresses already, i actually think he wouldnt have a big problem w the tempter in haiti hes def not overheating hes aight, he will however get a sun burn and then a cool tan lol, he was called “lènmi solèy la” for a while tho when he did have that sun burn

•something within curly changed when he saw pony w a tan, i can feel it

•im ngl they were def laughing at pony a lil for being a bit scared w some things and they made fun of him</33

•but the shepards assured pony that he was welcomed bc their family did actually cut some fruit for him

•pony was absolutely bombarded w questions about america, i can feel it

•and when it comes to curlys cousins whos around their age, bc they only speak kreyòl or french they had a bit of a hard time communicating, like theyd be trying to talk about tv shows but they only knew of the show in its french name, but they were trying so hard to b friends so its ok

•i think it would be sweet if pony, curly, and the older cousins went out to hang out together, just getting snacks at the store and making jokes, also im calling it now that pony would love salty plantain chips

•when it comes to the younger cousins, they r definitely pulling pony everywhere, making him play w them, fly kites w them, they run around with sparklers, pony doesnt rlly like kids that much, but he found it pretty endearing

•curlys grandma LOVES pony, he thinks hes very thoughtful and loves that he can appreciate the small things in life, shes in her rocking chair talking to pony w his very broken kreyòl about sunsets <33

•pony cant cook haitian food for SHIT but he can cut some veggies and fruit, hes in the kitchen w the aunties quietly cutting as many things they want him to cut as they gossip

•honestly pony was WAY more scared of the uncles, they r SO loud and competitive and its even worse bc theyre playing dominos, and dominos is NOT a friendly game in a caribbean household at ALL

•BUT he did have fun playing card games w em, he even won a few times and got some respect 🙏🏽

•theres this mask maker called charlotte charles and she makes papier-mâché mask for carnival and i will DIE on this hill that curlys family bought a mask for pony to wear for kanaval AND let him keep it bc she also makes mask of ponys, and his name is ponyboy so boom, heres examples of mask she made, im a big fan of em🙏🏽🙏🏽

•im TELLING u, pony and angela would be the ones quietly collecting seashells at the beach while everyone else is just in the water or laying in the sun

•tim is actually way more chill and doesnt have a scowl on his face most of the time, however the family does wonder wtf is happening in america for tim to act so closed off

•pony sees the rest of the family in america vs the family in haiti and hes surprised at the differences, the family in haiti doesnt have a lot but they r happy being together while in america they have more, but r so fucked up😭😭

hi migs!! I wanted to make a demon of amber oc and I was curious if there's anything I needed to know before making one!!

hewwooo!! there aren’t any real ‘rules’ cuz i’d love to see what unregulated creativity can do!! so you totally can make a super overpowered lost princess of amber character with rainbow hair and sparkly angel wings and id say HELL YTEAHHHH

but i definitely can give world lore so it can give a rough idea on how a typical citizen of the Demon of Amber universe (specifically Amber Kingdom) would interact with their world and possibly turn out!

SOME DEMON OF AMBER LORE;

- if your character is from amber, they’re very aware that magic is not openly accepted and EXTREMELY frowned upon. even dangerous/fatal if you’re caught using it or speaking in support of it. 

- so if you’re born a magic user, you’re taught straight away by your family to hide it in public. it’s not something you’d do out in the streets cuz someone WILL snitch to authorities. this can be difficult depending on how your magic works, cuz some people feel it’s activated by heightened emotion which is not something you can always control. 

- i say magic users, but the actual term people use in Amber is witches! they are used interchangeably though

- their planet isn’t exactly our earth (though it still is called Earth!), it’s more like an alternate universe where humans don’t exist. animals just evolved to be more human-like but kept their ‘animal’ traits! so that explains why theyre all furries

- but this also means certain species didn’t evolve in the same way, like reptiles and aquatic species for example!

- canines and felines are the most common groups but theres more! like mustelids, rodents, marsupials, some avians, etc. 

- species mixing is very possible! typically they’ll turn out as one species or the other, but there is a possibility they’ll be a hybrid! example: ren is jackalope because of this! mother rabbit and deer father.

- they’re not categorized by ‘carnivore or herbivore’ either! as for diets they mainly eat fish, plants, fruits n veggies, and some DOA specific creatures that can be eaten! but there is no beef or chicken unless you’re some sorta sicko cannibal cuz cows and chickens are evolved JAKHSFSHFG

- the year is 1313 when the main plot begins! and since their Earth isnt our Earth, different technological advancements and time periods are a tad mixed! the setting can be described as a sort of midpoint between medieval and steam punk. so they have some technology but it’s not super advanced! same goes with medicine. they’re not sticking leeches to you to cure a fever but they don’t have IV drips either

- average occupations aren’t anything too world specific! teachers, blacksmiths, doctors, bakers, chefs, royal staff (less common since there’s only so many openings), guards, etc! 

- if your character lives in the woods (which im debating renaming Ash Wood), there aren’t laws there! this is where most criminals and caught witches (innocent or not) are sent, and have since built their own society over the years. there’s very little resource, and its very hard to get by in the woods (hence why its named Ash Wood, the soil is so infertile it might as well be ash.) but they find a way! for the most part there’s a sense of helping thy neighbor but there are some real criminals in there that do make it unsafe. such as the cult >w>

5,7,10,13,14,15 for your boy! :3

Aww thank you for asking, lets see da boi then!

5. Did your muse have any sweet childhood romances?

No. His childhood got upended quite early and he found himself in a constant chaos so to speak, newer even staying long at one place or in one group of people. Too much instability for such things to take root, too focused on survival and training to get strong enough to live well and fear nothing. ...until he was around 15 and thought himself oh so grown and ready for anything, only to be ruthlessly taken advantage of by his first crush who was... 23 at the time. (Yeah u could have friggin EXPECTED it u fool, the moment he took interest in your interest, no matter how skilled con man he was all around, geez.)

7. Did your muse have a favorite childhood story or fable?

When he was still very smol, living with his parents in his clan, he was fascinated by heroic tales of adventurers and such, even some of the elven legends and beliefs. But he only remembers pieces like the atmosphere around the campfire, the warmth of the flames and his fathers hold, the taste of snacks. Such bits. The elven lore stays in that category for him, fairytales that possibly originated from some real life events and people, highly distorted.

10. Does your muse like to cook? Would they cook with another?

He absolutely sucks at cooking. On a dangerous level. He newer had the care or patience or time or even need to learn it. He prefers meat raw for f*cks sake XD (likely bc of all the blood magic induced changes, but thats also the reason why he can have it raw, and why he craves fresh blood regularly) Nobody in their right mind would prefer him to cook.

Whatever he "fixes" for himself is either raw, or undercooked, just for the warmth and dash of flavors. And he doesnt feel the need to change that. He does like tasty prepared food tho, loves the warmth and loooooves spices, and those can taste different cooked. Also, pastries and such, yumm. But whenever theres no access to buy some good food hes perfectly fine with the fresh meat he hunts, some fruits on the side or sometimes even some kinds of veggies.

Keeps dry rations all the time with him too, because he needs an insane amount of calories a day (also thanks blood magic enhancements demanding more fuel) and cant risk getting stranded or something without food for much time and get weakened fast.

He would gladly help someone cook tho if they asked, and would enjoy watching them prepare it, the whole peaceful comfort of it, but for goodness sake only let him cut and clean things.

13. Are there any physical items that make your muse happy?

Hmm... He usually doesnt have any item thats not for use and that he wouldnt ditch for a better one without a blink. Even when he has a place to hoard things to, they dont actually matter much, even if he enjoys soft pillows and nice things.

However he is so very happy to receive any gift, no matter if its just a useless sad little flower or a bite of food (yes food pls, can win his favor like a puppys XD). Even if its absolutely not about the item but the show of care, i suppose that qualifies to mention here?

He also does steal clothing items from his beloved for their scent, and is very happy to have them XD. Until the scent fades and he sneaks it back.

14. Is there a particular place that makes your muse feel at home?

In his lovers arms. One and only place that feels home for him, and gosh he enjoys it.

The presence of his twin sister has a unique familiarity to it too, carried from childhood and honed through many hardships faced together, only trusting each other fully, but thats not exactly a... comfort zone XD They love each other with a silent ferocity only animals can match, but only ever make each others life more difficult and less peaceful.

15. Is there a type of music relaxes your muse?

Soren enjoys all sorts of music, and its another "people thing" hes fascinated by, but perhaps surprisingly, the music that relaxes him is usually the loud, merry, festive kind. The kind that blows the dark away, warms people up, coaxing them to let go, making it feel that all is right and tomorrow is far away with its problems. Creates that atmosphere of ease. Soren thrives in that. The worst to look out for in such bunch would be a "tavern brawl", which he also greatly enjoys to partake in XD

That aside, he also learns that if his lover sings softly to him, like a lullaby, that really relaxes and soothes him too, in a different, affectionate, peaceful way.

I'm no enlightened being or anything but I just wanted to share some "guidelines" if you will that have helped me better my life.

BØG'S GUIDELINES

1. Sleep outside at least once a week.

- Sleeping outside in an as open air camp as you can has a number of benefits. Even if it's just in your back yard or on the floor of a garage or even your bedroom. Taking yourself out of your comfort zone for just one night can re-center you, clear your mind, and remind you of the struggles natural life is supposed to consist of.

2. Lift Røk at least 3 times a week.

- Lifting is paramount to becoming a complete human. Modern life is not as physically strenuous as natural life. Nowadays, most people go through life without ever actually having to exert strength. Aside from becoming an elite knuckledragging rockhead, lifting promotes a number of obvious positive benefits. Increased testosterone, self discipline, healthier and stronger physical form, temperance, a devotion to something greater than the self. All of these things and more will come to you by consistently lifting. The key is devotion and regularity. Those who want it, do it. They do not make excuses.

3. Eat a clean and balanced diet.

- Diet is the other half of the physical spectrum. You are quite literally made of what you eat. It's important to eat a COMPLETE and BALANCED diet. Yes there is the meme of "EAT ONLY MEAT AND DAIRY OR YOU'RE A GOOBER!" but realistically you need balance. Yes, meat and dairy are a solid base and you should reject the grain brain diets, but you also need your vitamins and minerals as well as gut bacteria from fruits and vegetables. I am no dietician, in fact I may be just a re[dacted] but if I know one thing it's that a complete man requires a complete diet. Not only complete but CLEAN! Reject the fast, processed foods of modernity. Buy raw ingredients. Fresh meats. Fresh veggies. Learn to cook. Hell, go another step and learn to hunt your food. In the end you will be healthier and save money while also developing important life skills.

4. Do cardio (running/heavy bag training)

- endurance is just as important as strength. Being able to lift a lot of weight or do immense damage with one punch isn't very useful if your heart is ready to give out after the fact. The enemy with a tactical mindset will try to wear you out before attempting to do any damage. Beyond combat, how are you going to keep up with your children if you never condition yourself? How are you to perform laborious tasks or chase down prey if you are so easily winded. Cardio such as running and heavy bag training are vital to becoming a complete man.

5. Set aside alone time to think and reflect.

- Take time, daily if you can, to be alone and reflect on yourself. Think through your day. Think about the path you are on. Your views. How you treat people. Reflecting in this manner is how we gain insight about ourselves and why we do the things we do. This is an important step towards self mastery.

6. READ.

- I cant stress enough to never stop learning. Humans have been writing down knowledge for thousands of years. There is more in this world to learn than one man could ever absorb in 100 lifetimes. There is always something you can learn from others. A new skill. A new point of view. A new tool to use for your training. A man is nothing if he does not enrich his mind. I encourage everybody to read and absorb whatever they can get their hands on. It's just important to remember these things were written by men just like you and I, and even they are not immune to fallibility and sophistry.

7. Do not complain.

- If you have a problem, talk to somebody, work out a solution. But your casual bitching and moaning about everyday issues? Stifle it. Complaining in this manner is an expression of weakness and weakness only breeds more weakness.

8. Abstain from degenerate comforts (drugs, alcohol, tobacco, pornography, ect.)

- This is one that many struggle with but is very important. Drugs and pornography ect. only provide the illusion of happiness. They do not actually make you happy. This can be seen in any 20 something burnout loser. They are depressed because all they do is seek pleasure and they seek pleasure because they are depressed. Never tempering their body or mind. A vicious cycle. This applies to playing video games and watching media as well. After a long day at work all we want to do is come home ang watch something or play a game, maybe even have a few drinks. Theres nothing necessarily wrong with this in itself. It's when we use these things as a daily crutch that it becomes a problem. To be a complete man you must learn to stand on your own two feet and face the daily struggles of life without the need for an escape. I'm not saying you should never indulge in a drink or puff of tobacco, nor am I saying "everything in moderation". What I am saying is its okay to enjoy intoxicants occasionally or for spiritual purposes but you should never lean on them as a crutch.

(This does not apply to pornographic material as I view it as being in the same class as hard drugs. Never touch it.)

9. Spend Time With Family.

- Spend time with your family. Family is one of the most important things, if not THE most important thing in life. The impact you can have on your family and the impact they can have on you is immense. Mortality is a fragile thing. We never know when we may lose someone so my advice to you is to treasure them while you can because one day they will be gone and there's nothing you can do. I recognize that not everybody's family life is the best. Maybe your family or some of your family aren't good people. Sometimes they're downright horrible. Your "family" doesn't have to be your blood relatives. It could be a long time friend or friends. What's important is that bond you share and that you cherish it always. Do not take the people you love for granted, because one day you may not have that luxury.

Feeling down

Recently I have been reading about people doing this ketogenic diet thing and seeing how quickly they are making progress but it doesn't seem healthy or sustainable to me. You body is not designed to eat so much fat on a constant basis, especially when it means forgoing much healthier options like veggies and fruits. I mean hell, what type of diet says you can eat a bunch of fast food bullshit so long as you don't eat the bun, but god forbid you eat a damn potato. What really bums me out though is I am working hard to try and stay consistent with my healthier lifestyle. I slip up sometimes and give in to my sweet tooth by putting a bit of sugar on my frozen blueberries, but these people are literally fasting on eggs and bacon fat. Why are they losing weight so quickly. I just want to start seeing some results damn it. Is that really too much to ask? To see that my efforts are at least making progress towards something?

I know it takes time. Really I do. But some days, days like today especially, I just find myself really down in the dumps and wanting to give up. A part of me wants to surrender to being fat, and just go eat the super unhealthy food that I am craving and I really have no one to vent to lately. Dad is no help because I'm the one forcing this diet change on him and any time I bring up these cravings he goes to his standby of "Well you need to treat yourself from time to time to make sure you don't get burnt out." Like no. Fuck that. That is the last thing I need to be told. I don't need someone who is wanting to go back to processed foods, sugar, and junk food at every turn.

And the other people I usually talk to and lean on when cravings like this kick in I haven't really spoken to much lately. Pat texted me a little while ago but he's been at work and stuff lately so he's busy. Brooke and Ashley have been doing their thing and haven't really been responding so I'm not sure if this is one of the usual times when they disappear for a while or if I upset them somehow? And then Ashley has been busy with work and school, plus she's a mom so theres that. I hate to constantly bug her cause I feel like I just get on her nerves at times, and since we went on our date we've only talked sporadically.

Honestly at this point I think what would be the best would be to just go disappear into the woods for a few nights to a week alone. No cell, no internet, and just spend time camping and going for walks or jogs through the wilderness butnI can't even do that until the weather makes a drastic change towards warmer weather. I want to put on some shorts and go for a run, even if it means being out of breath after every few minutes and having to break it up with a lot of walking. Something, anything, to get my mind somewhere else so I'm not stuck dwelling on how little change I'm seeing in myself.

After all, its not like I'm eating poorly. Lots of veggies and fruit, most of which is either fresh or frozen (canned is a last resort) with lean proteins and better carbs. I'm not cooking with as many fats, and the fats that I am ingesting I try to make as healthy as possible. And while I do eat rice (or red beans and rice) which isn't the best of foods it isn't the worst either and I keep it to a single scoop. Hell, I haven't even been using the regular dinner plates because I heard using small plates is better for portioning and making yourself feel fuller than you really are.

Ugh... really I guess this is just a rant. There is no true point to it. I just had to blow off steam and get it off my chest. It doesn't seem fair at times. All this came about because I felt bad for putting a bit of sugar on my blueberries to satisfy a sweet tooth. And I didn't even eat them all but now I feel guilty. I just wish I had someone to talk to who understood. Someone who was going through the same struggle as I am and wanted to improve their health, or lose weight or something. Misery loves company, right?

Oh well. Tomorrow will be a better day right? I just have to remain positive and stay optimistic that this slump I'm in won't last for long. That I will see results sometime soon and at that point it will all seem worth it. I think tomorrow I am also going to put the scale away or give it to my dad to keep in his room. Otherwise I am watching it every day hoping to see something and seeing my weight go from 315 one day (or even earlier in a single day) to bounce up to 320 again really hurts. I don't know where I'm actually at at that point, or how much is water weight, or carry over from another meal or something.

vegan is easiest thing ever, I've been vegan for 2 years now. anything you want u can eat vegan for the same cost. ppl always think vegan is so expensive but I've actually saved so much money, think things u can buy in bulk: dried fruits, nuts and seeds, grains (oats, quinoa, rices, etc) dry beans, frozen veggies, potatoes, wraps, tortillas, find staples u like and make meals out of them. theres so many snacks and meat alternatives. u would be surprised how many things r vegan on the market

Thank u so much!!! considering it when i can cook my own food

15 delicious ways to reduce food waste.

I wouldnt claim to be an environmental whiz kid, but I do the best I can.

I truly believe that even the smallest effort can make a huge difference. I read the numbers on the bottom of my plastic containers to make sure they can be recycled. I use empty bottles of wine to help water my plants thats really a win-win because I no longer have to remember to water them! But, I fall short in a few areas. I rarely finish a plate of food and have been guilty of tossing everything in my fridge in search of the one item thats causing a funk.

Then I learned about food waste. And its no joke.

Food is the single largest contributor to landfills, and 40% of food in the U.S. is never eaten. That’s a whole lot! But food waste isn’t just about what winds up in our trash cans. Producing all of that wasted food uses over 20% of the U.S. supply of freshwater that’s more water than is used by California, Texas, and Ohio combined and creates as much greenhouse gas emissions as 33 million passenger cars.

And food is a tricky issue in general. At the same time all of this food is being wasted, there are so many places, in the U.S. and abroad, where families simply do not have access to the nutritious foods that are out there.

Given all this, it seemed worth taking a look at ways to reduce food waste or, at the very least, our individual food waste. These tips aren’t a cure-all, but doing just a little bit can help to make these very big issues just a bit smaller. Here are a few of my favorites.

First things first: In an ideal world, our food wouldn’t go bad.

Sometimes we cant avoid it. We put a pear at the bottom of a bowl, and by the time we get to it, its becoming pear cider. But thats what refrigerators are for! Did you know that those drawers at the bottom serve a specific purpose? I didnt. Turns out, it’s called a crisper for a reason. Want to become an expert at storing your fruits and veggies? Here are a few tips:

Potatoes, onions, and tomatoes don’t need to be kept in the fridge. It’s actually better if they aren’t.

Salad greens should be stored in bags filled with a little air and sealed tightly. As someone who tries to remove all air from ziplock bags, this was an interesting tip.

Not all fruits can be stored together: Avocados, bananas, and kiwis produce ethylene as they ripen, so they need to be separated from fruits like apples to prevent the latter from going bad.

Now, if you have a few food items that are already past their prime, theres still time! These recipes are for you.

Full disclosure: I tried a few of these myself, but most of the delicious goodness youre about to see is courtesy of the DIY mavens online.

Bruised fruit just … isnt cute. But its still delicious.

Bananas look downright unappealing when theyre brown and spotty on the outside, but did you know thats actually when theyre at the best for a few recipes?

I had a very unattractive banana lying around and decided to put it to good use.

1. Meet banana fritters.

2. And banana bread is another great way to get rid of your spotted bananas!

3. Do you have overripe peaches, strawberries, or really any fruit you find irresistible? Turn it into jam! Its surprisingly easy.

4. Love breakfast foods? Your bruised fruit can play a role there, too. Those fruit-filled pancakes arent just for a fancy brunch. Smash your overripe fruit in a bowl, and make your own pancakes at home.

5. And how about popsicles? Did you know you could make those with overripe fruit? Your bruised peaches never looked so good.

And then theres stale bread it still has its uses!

6. Confession: Im not much of a bread eater. Too often, Id buy a loaf of gluten-free bread, forget about it, and toss it. But now I know that dried out bread can be transformed and used for something I really do like: breading things! Fried catfish is going to be perfect from now on.

7. And if you eat a lot of salads, spice them up with homemade croutons.

A lot of us have fallen victim to wasting parts of a whole rotisserie chicken. But not anymore.

After that first meal, theres often so much chicken left that next steps can be confusing. Do you eat the same meal for a few days or toss the leftovers? Do neither! There are tons of ways to reuse leftover chicken.

8. Tacos

9. Chicken salad

10. BBQ it! Yes, you can take the same chicken, slather some BBQ sauce all over it, and voil! A new meal. You can eat it as-is or shred it and make a sandwich. The world is yours.

11. As we head into winter, you can’t go wrong with some comforting chicken soup.

12. And as a new West Coast resident, I can vouch for chicken quesadillas. Shred or chop up your leftovers and make them part of this meal. You wont regret it.

And this is mind-blowing you can revive some of that produce you wrote off as goners. Yes, you read that right.

13. Carrots?

As certain vegetables wilt and start to lose their texture, they can be revived with some good ol water. Seriously. This is like a magic trick that we can all pull off.

So, you get it: Food waste sucks, but there are (delicious) ways to contribute to the solution.

Try some of these tips at home, and post your own tips! You never know which one of your tips can save someone else a ton of time and money while helping us all to treat this planet a little bit better.

When nothing helps.

It's so hard sometimes I scream, stamp my feet, and pace like a caged lioness. I have to let that bullshit out. I cant keep my anger in, it will only get worst and explode often embarrassing me if I dont. Theres no harm is screaming or crying as long as it doesn't go on for days and doesnt make the neighbor call 911. Since my last post there is no job waiting for me to get better to go back to now. I had always hoped to go back, no more not, thanks to some clause at work. The future is just an unknown blobby nothingness to me. It can be scary. Meanwhile I'd like to be able to be completely autonomous as well as be able to cook for myself without burning, injury or rage. Cooking should be fun right? What's fun? I've forgotten. I'm not really in any shape for anything. Before the Pandemic it was already tough enough for me. I was working hard on getting somewhere. Then I had a nasty couple of falls and I'm back to square 1 again. Brush myself off get up and start again. Im still pushing it, when will I learn? Slow down, life is not a race. I have to be careful when I'm spread to thin. The part of my brain that controls my gimbals is broken if I move too fast woah wipe out. Sometimes I cant help myself andI get stuck on a subject for hours till I've worked through my emotions. I dig into the chores not realizing that it may be too much for me during a heat wave. What's up with my brain that it feels like I have to pull up the slack to be considered human. I am enough as is!!!! Everyone is suffering and feeling the pinched in these hard times. After 5 years you would think I've gotten used to being miserable with pain and many limitations sure heap on this crazy ass, heavy, sick world. Clearly It is no place for me right now. Crazy shit been happening out there and good stuff too. So no cooking pancakes or bacon for me. If I'm hungry, Ill grab a fruit, some vegies; nevermind cook anything its too hot. I'm trying to see the silver lining; at least the weather is nice. That seem like something a "Karen" would say. Kay? I have to put on a mask to go for a walk isnt my life worth it? Every one else doesn't seem to think so here on my island, I get weird looks for wearing one. Sometimes it's so depressing that I feel like a Pokemon Psyduck, migraine and all. Just Explode! I hit my head on the ceiling coming down the stairs, I'm tall and on that little shelf in the bathroom again. Grrr. I stuck a pingpong ball on the corner so the next time it happens it wont hurt as much. I guess that's learning and adapting of sorts. I'm not hungry and it doesnt matter that all food smells horrible, nothing new just another awkward moment of being brain injured. I cant take meds unless I eat. So cut fresh veggies, some cheese and fruit. Or a smoothie its all good. Ive been worst and I believe I will get better. I wish I could go more than 3 days without injuring myself. Almost went flying down the stairs yesterday. This AM I tripped, twisted my ankle, the wall catches me right on my sore rotator cuff because I lost track my phone. Oi! Enough! Maybe a padded house? Or just a padded room? I'm feeling so raw, bitter,feed up and beaten right now. Everyone does I guess. With my balance and everything being so bad, all I can do is rest.

Youd be surprised to know how many people dont know what a gallbladder does, let alone what it is. The point is, its among the high risk viscera in the body, and if youre meaning to take care of it, better start now. A lot of people actually go through the difficult stage of gallbladder removal each year. Of course, this is not as frightful as it sounds, what with being minimally invasive ways and means through laparoscopic surgery. The surgeon merely incises at most four holes in the belly and then inserts a long tube with a camera as guide, and then uses surgical tools to remove the said organ. The alternative is open abdominal surgery. Other people might refer to this organ as vestigial, meaning that its not absolutely necessary for human survival. However, when it incurs a disease, irregularity, or some such aberration, it can be dangerous, if not downright life threatening. Think of it along the same lines as the appendix. However, the ways to take care of this vestigial organ are pretty much intuitive and are hornbook principles, so thats not a problem, really. Basically, you should make good sure that youre getting fiber rich and fresh fruits and veggies like grapes, berries, cucumbers, avocados, et cetera. You can binge on broccoli and oranges, as well as apples and citrus. If you arents suffering from gallbladder problems, youd do really well with radishes, which aids in bile flow. Also get yourself some fish, poultry, and general meat. Of course, dont skate over the whole grains and low fat dairy. As if you need any more scares, gallbladder attacks are said to be particularly painful, and they dont go easy on you either. In fact, they can last from several minutes up to HOURS. And this is accompanies by pleasant, note sarcasm, symptoms like vomiting, lethargy, nausea, and concentrated pain, either dull or acute, in the upper portion of the abdomen. And then theres also the unprepossessing jaundice. Gallstones are particularly painful to have. After all, these are essentially solidified particles of substances. Their characteristics are many and sundry, depending on what theyre made of. They can be a combination of bile, cholesterol, salts, and bilirubin. Their sizes are also relative, from being as trifling as a grain of sand or as prominent as a golf ball. Its needless to say that they cause obstruction, and at the same time, they can be really painful. A variety of problems are resultant to this, depending, of course, on where the obstruction is. For example, it can block the ducts and i so doing, prevent the bile from reaching the small intestines, which puts a stopper on the job and function of the bladder, leading to its all out dysfunction and then disease. Duct obstruction leads to pancreatitis, bladder obstruction to cholecystitis, and biliary obstruction to the symptom of jaundice. Even when the gallbladder should be surgically removed, that doesnt spell the end. But thats generally no problem, since the body can perform well enough even without it. Your body system may redirect this quintessential reservoir via the bile ducts, so everything still ends up in the small intestine. Of course, this places extra work on the bile ducts, so it would be a great service to yourself if you ensure that you take care of yourself better this time.
