• › Back to School on Crutches | A Little EverFlow Life Update

    Hello my spicy and beautiful pumpkins! 🖤 How are you all? “Long time” no seen.

    I am truly exhausted — both mentally and physically!

    Jumping on crutches is a pure workout and I am NOT built for workouts. Give me cookies and milk and I will be a happy person. Lol.

    Anyway
    The reason why I have been absent is because I have been mentally preparing and struggling with school — yes, I know. Shit happens and I hate it there, but I do it for my son. Not only for him to have after-school care, but also to show him that it’s okay if you don’t graduate high school. You can always get an education later in life.

    Monday: First day. Not prepared. Read here; [ link to Monday’s post ]


    Tuesday: Went to school for like 1.5 hours. I couldn’t stay for a whole day. I was almost falling asleep in class, couldn’t focus and had a migraine on top of that. I hadn’t slept that night because of massive stomach pain that kept waking me up every 30 minutes. It was awful, and it kept going nonstop the whole Wednesday as well.


    Friday [today]: Half day — woho! Love that!
    Today we had a test — yes, a test already… first week — and I passed it. Woop!


    We also had a “roleplay” where the teacher divided us students into two groups — four in each. We had to do a roleplay where two of the students were preschool kids and two had to be the teachers. One mean teacher and one “good” teacher.

    Guess which one I was?

    ……….. *pause for guessing* ………..

    If you guessed the mean one, you are correct!

    So me “yelling” and being mean to one of the children — I went all out. I was acting like this horrible, mean teacher.

    Wow! Almost so good that I deserve an Oscar!
    That’s how good I was. 😂

    After school,
    I came home, supposed to do homework, but honestly — all my energy went into going to school and jumping around on crutches. My hands and arms are actually hurting from it, to be honest. It is brutal! I don’t understand how people can do it day in and day out to be honest! You guys are strong!

    At least I’m going, which is a miracle for me.
    Sure, I get a lot of stares, but I’m rocking those screaming, insanely blue crutches.

    They are so ugly! It’s ridiculous.

    Tomorrow I will study. I had to do paperwork for the insurance company, Lufthansa and their bullshit and yeah…

    Exhausted Miima for sure!

    So here is a quick post, quick check-in.

    Hi! Here I am! Exhausted but still alive — barely — and ready to post again. Getting back to my routines again!

    Thank you so, so much for checking in on EverFlow and for being patient with me. I really appreciate you! SO MUCH! 🖤


    Much love to you, my pumpkins! 🖤



  • › 10 Days Later: Still Fighting the Pain After Breaking My Foot

    Hey guys!


    So sorry that I haven’t been updating EverFlow like I normally do (texts etc. Like this post), but hopefully that will change soon. No… it will change soon! I also apologize for the lack of communication from my side. I see all your comments and love 🖤 I will answer them as soon as I can! I also want to apologize for not sharing photos yet from my trip but they will come. Be prepared!


    How are you guys? Happy new month! (Yeah, I know… we’re already three days into it. 😂)

    I hope you’re all doing fantastic. Thriving, growing and, most importantly, being happy!


    My main focus lately has actually been my foot and my knee. It hurts so much, but because I’m stubborn I’ve already started walking on my foot again. Do I suffer because of it? Absolutely. Am I supposed to be resting with my foot up? Yep. But is there really time for that? Not really. Housework, mom life… life doesn’t exactly hit the pause button.


    Today I have actually challenged myself. Not a small challenge… a big, exhausting one.


    Normally it takes me about five minutes to walk to the store and another five minutes back. Today? Twenty minutes each way. Forty minutes in total… and let me tell you, I do not need a gym membership while I’m on these crutches. 😂 That is one thing for sure!


    The sweat was definitely sweating, I can assure you. Imagine me jumping around on crutches while E walks at the speed of a cheetah. It was basically Snail vs. Cheetah.


    It’s been 10 days now and my foot still hurts. Like I said above… and no, I still haven’t been given any painkillers, no matter how many times I’ve asked.
    So to try and ease the pain a little, I bought a pair of compression socks because the area around my toes is getting absolutely destroyed from walking the way I do with the boot.


    It actually helped a little… but it also squeezed parts of my foot I didn’t even know existed. 😂 So, of course… more pain. Those socks are TIGHT. Like… “is my blood circulation still working?” tight. I wore one for two days, though. I even fell asleep with it on the first night.


    Yep… that’s pretty much my life right now.
    I’m just hoping, wishing and praying these next few weeks fly by, because I’m honestly getting pretty tired of being in pain.
