May 19 Five For Friday 5/18/18

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Acupuncture Treatment.
• 1 Lipids Infusion.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab. Cardio in the neighborhood and strengthening in my living room.
• 1 lady parts appointment.

2. Why do I do this to myself every year? Why do I make our busiest foundation month, the same month that is my busiest teaching month? Whew. Maybe it is so June truly feels like a vacation ; )

Anyways, we are coming up on our busiest LAAZF week of the year! How fitting to kick it off with this beauty! Thank You, Mayor, Andy Schor for the Proclamation, stating May 20-26th is Invisible Illness Awareness Week in the City of Lansing. #lifeasazebrafoundation #invisibleillnessawarenessweek2018 #lovelansing #zebranation #awarenesscampaign #bringingvisibilitytoinvisibleillnesses

3. So, how can you get involved?

To all of our zebra Peeps! And we mean ALL! Men, women, children, adults…We need your stories! Invisible Illness Awareness Week in Michigan begins Sunday!

5. Faith over fear. Let your faith be bigger than your fears. I’m not scared, I was born to do this.

I have been repeating these over and over again to myself this week.
