Check out my other blog too!

Since it's kind of difficult to keep up with one blog site, trying to do two is just not going to happen right now, so this website is primarily going to contain summaries of my personal life, whereas the other website has some videos which I produced. To watch the videos, just click on the link below:

Check out some of my videos at this blog site.
The above website link allows me to share the videos which I love to produce. If I felt better, had a lot more energy and could remain focused on a project for longer periods of time, I would be able to make more videos. Until the ifs in my life are all a part of my past and I can get through a day without being so tired and constantly thinking about eating in order to gain weight, I might actually get some more things accomplished.

Trying to gain the weight has been a struggle for me lately, not because I have an eating disorder, but because I had an undiagnosed bile duct problem for over two years, which caused a lot of pain and discomfort and reduced my ability to digest the food I did eat. When I was hurting after every meal, it got to a point that eating was no longer enjoyable. Then in July, a stent was put in to stretch out the bile duct which was dilated six times the normal size and then strictured to boot, which was causing the bile to not flow and causing the pain. In October 2009 the stent got clogged so it was removed. I felt fairly good for about four weeks, but the discomfort has returned. I'm trying not to let the pain prevent me from eating anymore, but it's still a struggle.

Even though my lowest weight was 101 back in January 2009, it's almost a year later and I've only managed to gain 7 pounds. By the way, I'm 5' 9" so when I was down to 101, everyone was telling me that I looked really thin, but no one, not even a doctor, understood that having pain was making me not want to eat as much.

Thank you for visiting my blog websites. I hope you enjoy watching the cat videos as much as I enjoyed making them. They were actually made about two years ago so the cats are a tad bit older now.

The white cat, which we appropriately named Betty (after Betty White) and the brown one, named Patches, are still hanging around the neighborhood a long with their Mama, who is black and white with the white paws, also called a tuxedo cat. The cats were never really ours, we just adopted them when pregnant Mama showed up on our doorstep one cold November day back in 2006 and we felt sorry for her and gave her a warm place to stay while she delivered her six kittens. Unfortunately, four of the six kittens died and Betty and Patches, which are in the videos, were the only ones that survived. A few months later, Mama had another litter of six, which are also seen in the one video of "In the Mood" by the Glenn Miller Band, but we ended up giving those all away. Since we didn't want Mama, Betty or Patches (all females) to get pregnant again, we took them to a vet and had them fixed.

That's about it for now. Once again, if you have some time and you want to check out my other blog website, just click on the link below. Thanks a lot and I hope you enjoy surfing the internet as much as I do!!!
