      So I did a little research. I used to love donating blood, and once you have melanoma you can’t do that anymore. Bummer. What I can’t find the answer to is if we can leave the country. I want to go to the Bahamas one day! Oh home treatment is getting easier. I have yet to stick myself with the needle haha. I’m 25 and I make my mom do it. I think she’s going to make me do it soon though. Gah! Needles never used to bug me, now I want to be as far away from them as possible.

      Oh! I went to see Hunger Games with my boyfriend and his family. His mom and I LOVED it! I can’t wait for the 2nd one! Eeee!!

      I’m also learning that eating healthier helps me feel pretty good! I’m not a health nut by any means but sodas have a limit now, and ice cream is consumed less often. Baby steps. I like going on walks, too. I’m determined to be a sexy lady haha.

      Gotta say God has been super good to me. This hasn’t been a smooth ride but honestly this is easier than my parent’s divorce, and I believe my faith has a lot to do with that. They split up 12 years ago before I became a Christian.

      Anywho…let me know if I can pray for you or someone you know! I spend a LOT of time at home and could use something to do haha. Other than daydreaming about having a dog again. And being hot. Girl stuff I guess.

      Take care lovelies!

                Can we leave the country?

                Sure! Why not? (We're not contagious.)

                Make sure your passport isn't expired. 

                I hope I'm interpreting your question correctly…….but I've been known not to…….lol…..

                I wish you all the best in your world travels! (We did a Mediterranean cruise last summer.)
