Sorry guys. Just haven't felt the photography bug. Honestly, with my health issues, stress, and the awlful weight gain from my pills, I don't have the desire to take many photos of myself or anything really. I snap a lot of stuff with my camera phone though. 

So if you're still hanging around and curious what I'm up to, there's my Facebook -www.facebook.com/AmberWrightPh…
And I just (finally!) joined Instagram - www.instagram.com/real_kedraly…

Yes, I'm still alive. Just not all that active with pictures anymore. It's difficult to find the time or the energy. I am still suffering from the same symptoms. There's been no new diagnosis or treatment. Just tests that don't tell us much. So it's the same ol' grind. But I'll hanging in there. Mostly. My meds have caused some weight gain, so I'm horribly self conscious about taking my photos. Then there's the weakness, exhaustion, headaches, dizziness, body pain, nausea... Really puts a damper on things and makes it hard to get motivated for pictures. But I do try to take photos with Christmas lights every year. So I managed some. Hope you guys enjoy. Maybe I'll be back before 6 months have passed again, lol.

Happy Holidays! :heart:

Some of you know that I've been battling medical health issues for years now.

Well, I finally got a diagnosis for at least part of my problems, if not all of them. I have Fibromyalgia. This is responsible for my constant body aches, exaggerated pain response, chronic fatigue, migraines, stomach issues (it may or may not explain my constant nausea) and can even cause depression. It's one of those diseases that there isn't a test for. More like something they consider when everything else has been ruled out. So even now, it's not 100% certain.

I've been put on a low dose medication. It'll take about a week to start working and for me to adjust. Currently, this medication makes me feel very very drugged. Kind of like my head is floating away and I slur my words! They say this feeling will go away. If the meds don't help, we will increase the dose. If that doesn't work, we'll try something else.

I am happy to have some sort of diagnosis. Tho I'd rather have been told that I had something that could've easily been cured. As even though Fibro is treatable, I can still have bad flare ups, even on medication.

Fingers crossed that I start feeling better. Then I can take more pictures :)

Hello

Thought I'd say hi. Not much to report on. Since the death of montyoum I have been out of sorts. And this website, well it reminds me of "back in the day." Our little group we had, how we met, the work we did, our friends here, the deep conversations, the favors, the jokes. DA hasn't been the same in years. And now it really never will be.

I don't post here all that much anymore. You can keep up with me here: www.facebook.com/AmberWrightPh…
Or here  kedralynn.blogspot.com/

I suck at updating people on stuff online. I've totally abandoned my Twitter due to laziness, lol. So here's to hoping I can maintain at least a couple sites.

And Happy Holidays!

I've been battling the cold from hell for the past month. Yep, with my other health issues, it's made for me having a very lazy immune system. So I've been sick for a full month :(

But I LOVE Christmas. So in spite of the sickness, I've been in high spirits. As is tradition, I wanted to take some Christmas photos again this year. I'll admit that I put on a wig to hide that I haven't done my hair, and I photoshopped my skin because of break outs. Hey, you try having a fever for a month and see how well you keep up with your appearance ;p Anyway, I rushed to take a few photos today. They aren't perfect, but at least I got something done. And I managed to pick up my camera for the first time in months! That alone is a reason to celebrate.

I hope to kick this cold's ass soon and get back to running my home, battling my usual illnesses, take care of my family, and take pictures. Maybe by the New Year.

I wish you all health and joy this holiday season :heart:
