Needing Extra Cash?

If you are needing extra cash, I highly recommend doing some Clickworkers, and or OneForma. Both of the platforms are the same the only difference is Clickworker takes 7-30 days to pay out and OneForma does not. OneForma also gives you training and Certifications way before you jump into the jobs to make sure you can do them. I highly recommend doing these on your free time because it actually helps in the long run and with it being almost Summer this will allow you to pay for Vacations and other things you may need. 

If you do not know, both platforms are Microtasks that allows you to train AI, code, data entry and annotations, audio annotations, transcribe and translate in different languages,  categorize, and so much more. These are easy and simple to do and they walk you through it.

Oneforma also allows you to get certified in it by reading about it and then taking the exam at the end. Some of the Exams give you multiple attempts so if you mess up and do not score at least an 80 on it, its not the end of the world unless you can only take it once and then you cannot take it again. Both of these are free and worth it!

Itchiness won't go away!

 For the past I do not even know how many days I have been up all night with this itchiness. It starts in my hands and feet then moves to my arms and legs and back and I do not know what is causing it.

 My Zyrtec no longer helps, the Claritin does not help. I have took a shower trying to get it to stop in which it did but then again walking to my room, it started itching again. I used lotion thinking it was dry skin in which I did have some but no that did not help either. I end up taking Benadryl at night just so I can get a piece of mind.

 I believe, this is happening due to nerve damage in which I understand because it overall started in my C-section bikini area and then it traveled. 

I was recommended two different kinds of lotions, Sarna and Eucerin, in which I have used Eucerin before for the dry skin and it worked so hopefully, I can try these two dry skin lotions and they work. 

I was also recommended antiitch soaps also that should allow me to narrow down what is causing my itch and if these do not work then I will end up going to a dermatologist to fix this.

If you think it is neuropathy itch which is a diease that never goes away, you can always try neuropathy treatments to help attempt to resolve your itch! Check here for neuropathy creams!  

Allergic reaction after taking Zyrtec (Cetirizine)

 

If you do not know, Zyrtec is an allergy medication that is used for allergies and seasonal allergies.

 Me being me and having server allergies every year and developing new allergies, I have spent most of life on it since Claritin never worked on me. Luckily it gave me relief but lately, I have noticed if you stop taking it or tapper off of it then you start itching. 

Me not knowing this is a new side effect now, I thought it was just me being allergic to something new and developing new allergies in which yes that has happen to me.  

One day, I was laying in bed and suddenly I started itching from no where. I thought it was my soaps, my bed sheets, my wash that I wash my clothes in but no, it was the cetirizine. I have developed rashes on my arms not sur where they were coming from. I also developed red rashes and everything else thinking it was something else but no it was my allergy meds all alone. 

I have found out, this is not just me having this. A lot of people are dealing with this.  

So as of now I have stopped my Cetirizine and now taking benadryl for the itching I got from Zyrtec. I am probably going to switch to Allegra. 

It Amazes me : The new me

It amazes me at how a person believes they can do or say anything about you and when had enough, you decide to cut all contact and delete them and then when they try to come back, they expect you to still be there and they can still treat you all kinds of ways. 

See the old me would allow them to come back thinking that they did not mean to do it. The old me would allow them to continue to walk on me like a door mat but the new me does not allow it. I know my worth and my importance. I do not need anyone in my life that will cause me to question myself.

Especially if you throw off on me and talk about me and then block my numbers and expect me to be there and accept your friend request on Xbox when you deleted me because I asked you a question which is better S or X. 

It is funny how in todays world, you expect people to be there when you are bored and lonely and want people to play with you because "You do not like to play with randoms." but you tend to talk all kinds of bad things and make it seem like you're all big and bad when you are just a random dude that tries to be cool in his 40's and do nothing but drink, smoke weed and barely pay your child support because you are to busy balling and trying to trap people with your daughter because you are trying to find her a mom. 

The old me would go back trying to help this situation but it is hard to help someone who is still trying to live in their teenage years and two decades ago. 

The new me is telling me this is not my battle and you cannot help everyone especially someone who is just going to mooch off of you and pretty much take everything you have just because they have nothing for themselves but yet want you to feel bad. 

The new me has been through the riddles and tricks for far to long and has decided even though they knocked on that door, to not answer it. I learned not to answer all doors that are knocked on because I refuse to go down that old road or path.

 I refuse to allow old access and or connections that are just going to belittle me and talk about me and be jealous. The old me would feel bad but the new me is pushing it off and not opening up so easily. If they were meant to be in my life, first off they would not do what they did and secondly, the would still be here. 

I am finally healing and moving on past the things that use to hurt me or keep me. I am moving past trying to help people that want to use you because they have nothing better to do. 

Cinnamon Twists: Taco Bell How to make

 

If you are trying to make the Cinnamon Twists from like Taco bell. Do not use normal noodles that you go buy from any store. The noodle that you need is a wheat noodle called Duros. 

You pretty much take these, put some cooking oil in a pot, wait until the oil gets hot then put the Duros in and then once they start puffing up you take them out and repeat the cycle.

 You then take your Duros and toss them into cinnamon sugar and then let them cool off. Now you have to take the Twist noodles.

 I personally prefer mine with Valentina hot sauce since my childhood best friend was Hispanic, she taught me this. 

There are different shapes and sizes of Duros so get the ones you like. I personally like the Pinwheel ones

Calorie tracking: My net diary app

 Along with my sugar free diet, I decided to start calorie counting and tracking to see how much I eat in a day and boy let me tell you. Some of the foods that looks like there's barely any calories in them there is a lot not only of calories but fats and sugar and some of them you would never know it. The calorie tracker I use is My Net Diary and it pretty much calculates a lot of things from weight, what I am eating, what is inside of what I eat. 

There is even an AI that detects what your food is when you take a photo of it. If it has a barcode you can scan it in and see if it is there and if it is not, you can log it by hand or take a photo of it and it will update it for you. There is a lot in this app and it is useful. It also tracks water intake, your steps and if you exercise which is a good all in one app. 

There is a premium that gives you a lot more things such as recipes and meals, daily feedback and advice and a few other things in which sounds great but I do not have the money so I only use the free side and had no issue. 

Join here! I do not get commission or anything for it just wanting to share it. Can be used on android or apple!  

Something else I pair this app with is my smart watch because it allows me to gather certain things like my heart rate, my exercise and how many calories I have lost just from walking or whatever it is that I am doing. This app goes hand in hand with it and is very useful and you can even log what your watch says into the MyNetDiary app and it is just a life saver. Since the watch connects to your phone also.

Get you a smart watch here! There are so many different kinds and shapes! They are so worth it. 

Sugar Free diet

After years of being sugar dependent and wanting to switch up my diet but my mindset would not allow me to. It was hard. I struggled with the mindset that I am going to switch up my diet, I am going to stop drinking sodas and I felt like I was lying to myself, in which I was.

 I kept saying I am going to get off of sugary sodas and I was going to do this and I was going to do that but in the long run I was not until recently. When I first wanted to do this, it was like I could not. It was like my body wanted it, craved it and I depended on it but now, it has totally changed and now I want nothing but sugar free.

 I have stopped drinking sugary drinks and have switched to Sugar free sodas and boy I can tell the difference. I can actually tell the difference especially if I take a sip of non sugar free drinks. Now the non sugar free drinks taste like syrup. 

I also drink water with water flavor packets and squeeze's  to change the taste since something, I cannot drink water and it makes me throw up. 

I am also working on switching out sugar to Splenda in which, growing up I use to use it also because I was a borderline diabetic and it helped me by taking out the normal sugar content. 

I do not eat cake really and it is rare for me to eat chocolate so I do not have to cut that out but I do have to work on pasta and breads in which I am going to work on eventually. I also love a good salad so I have no issue there. 

I have noticed switching to this diet that I do not say bloated like I was. I also am not having pancreatitis like I was since switching and I wake up in a better mood and feeling everyday. I also noticed that I am not dehydrating as much as I would with sugary sodas and I am not battling kidney stones anymore. 

I also found that I am able to eat more now then when I was drinking sugary sodas.

I also am taking Digestive Enzymes to help break down things since I do have the problem where my digestive tract has issues to the point where my system does not digestive well. My GI told me this would help me in the long run and I take it everyday and it helps me also with any discomfort that I feel and it helps me eat a little more then I normally would.

This diet made me feel a lot better.
