Doctor Who

I'm tired of the rain!  I miss the sunshine!  I didn't get to outside today because of it.  Too chilly for my taste.
I also didn't get my new Acid Reflux medicine.  When I went to he pharmacy they were super busy so I will have to pick it up tomorrow.
I decided in the meantime to watch some Doctor Who.  I've been re-watching it starting with the first season staring Christopher Eccleston from 2005 and have worked my way up to Season 5.  I think David Tennant is still my favorite Doctor.  I haven't seen a lot of the Matt Smith episodes though so he may grow on me.
My belly is calling me.  Time to scrounge up something to eat!  :)

The Answer To All my Health Issues.....Hopefully.

For a long time now, ever since I was little, I've been battling constant illness.  I would usually get Bronchitis but in more recent years I've been getting Strep Throat, Tonsillitis and Pneumonia. NOT good stuff.  I've been to many doctors to try to figure out what was wrong with me.  At first they thought it was Allergies and I was to take allergy medication every day.  I would still get sick though, just not as often.  So I went to an allergist.  They tested me for all of the normal stuff and it turns out I wasn't allergic to anything.  My Allergist said it was probably some kind of allergic Asthma but he wasn't sure.  Still he wanted to treat me for to see if I'd improve.  I was put on nasal sprays and inhalers.  I still got sick.

Today I went to see new doctor, an ear, nose and throat specialist.  He was surprised I was not allergic to anything and said that's normally what causes that type of thing.  I had to inhale some misty stuff that numbed my nose and throat and then the doctor put a tiny camera attached to a wire up my nose, checking my sinuses and then down my throat.  What he found was that my esophagus was red and irritated including the bottom of my voice box.  Apparently I have Acid Reflux disease but didn't know it.  He said this is 2nd most common thing that can cause constant illness like I've been experiencing.  I'm being put on medication for it so hopefully I will be healthier soon.

This means that I will have to cut out carbonated beverages, caffeine, chocolate,  citrus and tomatoes which is going to be HARD.  Not so much the tomato/citrus part.  It's the caffeine and carbonated beverage part.  I usually have a soda a day.  I've cut down to 2 sugary sodas a week but I still have a Zevia on my off days which is carbonated.
I'll keep updating this blog on my progress but now it's time to play some Dragon Age.  :)

Veggie Egg Bake Recipie

I'm still not feeling well today and have mostly stayed in bed.  I did have enough energy to make some food though.  I ended up making an egg bake with lots of veggies.  It was really good.  So good in fact that I ate 2 servings of it!  Since I have not had an appetite this was really great and WAY better than pigging out on junk food like I did the other day.

Here is the recipe:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

You will need:
12 eggs
veggies ( I used a bag of frozen spinach, a green pepper, onion and tomato.)
goat cheese
salt
pepper

I cracked 12 eggs and mixed them up in a bowel and added to it, 1 bag of frozen spinach, 1 tomato chopped, 1 onion chopped, and 1 green pepper chopped.
Add seasonings to taste.  I used salt and pepper but you can use whatever you want.
Top it off with goat cheese and bake for about 30 minutes.

Serve and enjoy!  I did.

The best part about this dish is that it makes a lot so you will have breakfast for the week.  :)

Sick

There's so much I wanted to do today but of course I get Tonsillitis.  :(  I am not a happy camper right now.  I've been eating a LOT of junk food today too which I realize is not the smartest or healthiest thing in the world and yet I keep shoveling it down anyway.  I did manage to make it to the store this week though so I do have health food makings available.  Maybe tomorrow I will make something healthy to eat.  I've been on meds now for almost 2 weeks and I only have 4 doses left.  Hopefully I will be feeling better soon so I can start back on my workout schedule. 

Hello

Hi!  I'm Little Phoenix.  I do all sorts of fun things: model, write music, do makeup, etc.  I decided to start this blog today.  My intention was to originally talk about events in the area, photo shoots and fashion shows, and club events but now I'm thinking I want to make it  more than that.  I want to talk about makeup, video games, recipes, health and all other things I love.  So here we go.  :)
