Chronic Illness Diaries: Staying Positive in Hard Times

This chronic illness vlog finds me in April, a few days away from my 43 birthday. This day, I was having a hard time, but had to encourage myself into and staying in a positive mindset, which can be difficult when traversing hard times. However, I am encouraged, and want to encourage all of you that your current trial is only temporary. 

At times we are so overwhelmed by our current circumstances that we forget that “This too shall pass”. At times we have no one around to remind us, encourage us, or speak positivity over us. But there is always you! Get in the mirror and speak, encourage, and remind yourself: This trial is temporary; this pain won’t last; it won’t be like this always; your latter is greater than your former; your best is yet to come! You are a light in the darkness!

God Loves you and so do I; Be Encouraged! Until next time remember to Cook, Eat, Enjoy, Live, and Repeat

Chronic Illness Diaries: Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Chronic Illness Diaries: Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Friday, March 8, 2024, early evening will forever be burned into my mind. It is the day that I came so very close to death. 

Right in my bathroom, I began feeling extremely ill, dizzy to the point of blacking out, and extremely short of breath. At that moment, I found out late that I experienced an acute Pulmonary Embolism. Probably the scariest medical emergency that I have ever experienced to date.

Because of that event, I have a newfound heart of gratitude. I am grateful to be here even on the days that I feel my worst because I was so close to not being here. I am grateful for every up and down; every good and bad day; every ache and pain. I am most grateful for those who surround me in love, friendship, and support​.

Celebrating Daughter’s University Graduation Vlog

One of the proudest moments for a parent is to see your child graduate college or university, walk across the stage, and receive that long-awaited diploma. But just as much as I am proud, my kid was even more so.

I want to give a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has prayed for, spoken words of encouragement, given financially, etc to Alexis. We greatly appreciate each one of you. And thank you to friends and family, both near and far who came to the house and dropped off cards or came in to help us celebrate Alexis on this special day.

After everything was said and done, man I was spent. I could barely move the next day. But I would and will do it all over again for my babies.

Watch as family and friends come together and celebrate this monumental occasion. Class of 2023!!!!

Christmas 2022 Vlog | Cooking | Family | Presents

Hello all, I hope you’ve had a Happy Christmas filled with family, friends and good food. This year, Christmas was very low-key. Just the family spending time at home, laughing and cooking.

Speaking of Cooking. This year, may daughters gifted me with making Christmas/Christmas Eve dinner. I didn’t have to cook a thing, but I came down to record and offer moral support and answer any questions they may have had.

Seeing them in the kitchen, preparing such a big meal warmed my heart and made me smile. They learned well from all the years of watching me cook.

If you would like to see what they cooked and how it turned out, check out the video below.

Escape the Summer Heat | Long Beach, Washington | Road/Day Trip

Hey all, we are well into autumn; leaves are changing, the consistent rain has arrived here in the PNW (Pacific Northwest). However, before I fully embrace autumn, I must relive my last family summer 2021 road/day trip .

Me and my loves ready to travel

We had some pretty toasty days this summer in the Portland Oregon Metro area. Several days at a time we were well into the 100’s. And of course, what better way to try to escape the summer heat in this area than to retreat to the beach.

Me soaking up the sun

In this video, my family and I try to escape the summer heat of the Portland, Oregon Metro area heatwave of 2021 and take a short road trip to Long Beach, Washington. I love Long Beach because you can drive your vehicle on the beach. One of my favorite places to be is on the beach or by the water listening to the wave. Join us for this short road trip to the beach as we bid farewell to the summer.

Day/Road Trip to Mount Saint Helens

QUICK UPDATE

Hey all, I hope you are doing well. Quick update. I change the name of my YouTube channel from Cook Eat Enjoy to Gloriousgal Living: Food, Travel, Life. The name change reflects the evolvement of my content and stays on brand with the name. So same channel just a different name.

TRAVEL LOCALLY

So, this summer, my family and I took a few local day/road trips. We didn’t go too far, as we are still trying to be travel cautious which gives us the opportunity to explore our own backyard.

ROAD TRIP TO MOUNT SAINT HELENS

In this vlog, my family and I take a day trip/road trip to Mount Saint Helens in Washington State. It is about an hour and a half to 2-hour drive from the Portland metro area.

View of Mount Saint Helens from Elk Rock

The views are incredible, and if you like hiking or walking, there is plenty of that.

This was a challenging trip for me because I was in a right knee brace during this time, but I didn’t let that stop me from driving on this road trip and enjoying all the new sights as we saw different angles of Mountain Saint Helens on our drive up.

I hope you enjoy our little day trip/road trip adventure to Mount Saint Helens in Washington State and inspire you to travel around your own state and surrounding areas. Until Next time remember to Cook, Eat, Enjoy Travel, Live and Repeat.
