Busy few days – updating website and more

Gee I haven’t made a post on this blog for a few day … what’s up with that? I usually post at least one if not two or more posts a day.

Well … to tell you the truth I’ve been pretty busy over the last few days. I’ve been doing a major update on my main website (reptile related info). The site needs a complete redesign, but there were a few issues I couldn’t ignore any longer so I spent the last three days working on updating various aspects of each and every page on the huge site.

I’m a real type A personality and once I start something I usually keep going until I get it done and well, that’s why this blog and most of my others are lacking new posts for the last few days. I think I’m done working on the main website for a while so things should get back to normal now.

Other news … I was right, I am losing weight. I’ve got Crohns and I’ve been on medical leave from my job as an ER nurse for close to two and a half years. During my time with Crohns I’ve gone through periods of massive weight loss. One time I lost close to 40 pounds in one month … weight I really didn’t need to lose! That was bad. I wouldn’t doubt some people thought I was taking handfuls of weight loss pills. Strangely enough, over the last two years that I’ve been home I never did go through a period of weight loss due to the Crohns. Instead I seemed to have gained a little bit of weight very slowly during my medical leave.

Well it seems things are turning around. My metabolism is revving up as I’m constantly hungry and the weight I gained seems to be coming off. I’m not doing anything different really. I’m a little more active now that spring is here, but I still feel pretty yucky so it’s not like I’m going out jogging or anything.

Anyway, I consider this good news – well as long as I don’t start losing weight really fast it’s good news. I’ll be lookin’ good by the time it’s warm enough here to start wearing shorts.
