Earth Balance

I received this Earth Balance spread to try courtesy of BzzAgent. I picked it up at my local Kroger and decided to make some bread to try it on. It comes in both a tub and in sticks to make it more convenient for baking. It also comes in several varieties including coconut and soy free. While the Earth Balance vegan margarine is absolutely delicious it's fairly expensive. We had friends over for dinner and many of them loved it with the bread, in fact they had no idea it wasn't real dairy butter. If you're looking for a vegan butter option or just something a little healthier this one is fantastic, but because it's not something we use often it's not quite worth the expense to buy it regularly. 

Disclosure: I received these products complimentary from BzzFeed and Earth Balance for testing purposes.

Sunshine Vox Box

I got my Sunshine VoxBox a few weeks ago and it had a lot of great stuff in it! Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Spray Sinful Colors nail polish in Ocean Side Infusium 23 Leave in Treatment with Avocado and Olive Oil Dickinson's Witch Hazel Cleaning Cloths (and some coupons) A coupon for a free bag of Bark Thins, I got the Blueberry Quinoa variety Blue Diamond Sriracha Almonds Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Soothe Spray: The Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Soothe spray lotion spray smells great, it's light, quick, easy to apply, and absorbs quickly without leaving any greasy residue. The smell is kind of strong but it fades quickly. Unfortunately it's not heavy enough for my super dry skin, even with the summer humidity. This would be great for people who want light moisture without getting it on their hands or leaving a greasy feeling. Sinful Colors Nail Polish in Ocean Side: I love Sinful Colors nail polish. It comes in a huge variety of ...

There was an incident...

Yesterday was shot day. Three pens, as expected, no big deal. Except one of my pens misfired. The needle didn't even touch the skin. I pressed down, counted to ten, pulled it away, and the Humira started spraying. I put my hand over the end to catch to fluid so that it didn't spray all over the carpet. According to the Humira rep with AbbVie this is a normal mechanical failure. I explained the incident, gave them some info from the package, and as soon as they confirm with my doctor a new pen will be on the way. I have extras in the fridge, so no lapse in dosing. Still, injecting is anxiety inducing enough without equipment failure. The other problem: I noticed two lumps in my right arm pit on Thursday morning. Around 9 AM it was the size of a ping pong ball. I sat in Sus' house all day while she cleaned, unable to help her because the building pain was just too much and movement would only make it worse. By dinner time it was roughly the size of a tennis ball, and more...

Humira, Life at 120MG

I took two pens on Thursday (6/29/17) and another one today (6/30/17) and I am EXHAUSTED. No idea if it's helping yet, but the shots seem to make me hungry. Reminder: I am on Humira for Crohn's Disease, Hidradenitis Suppurativa, psoriasis, and polymyalgia rheumatica.
