New Laptop

Back to posting.  This time with a new laptop.  I can't believe how much I've missed the TAB key (Yes, I'm using a PC).  My old Mac desktop still looked cool, but no matter how hard I tried it was not compatible with the iPhone 4.  It also sucked at uploading photos to Facebook, so I had to use my husbands Macbook.  I have yet to try many of these tasks with my new PC, but it has got to be more efficient than my old desktop. 

A lot of things have happened since I last posted.   I started the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, then stopped (and became ill).  I have realized that SCD and GAPS are the way to go for me in order to heal.  ALL grains, even Gluten free grains cause me agony and pain.   I can do really well for a while, and I'll feel so awesome, and then I will slip up and have something like gluten free pizza and BAM!  Pain!.   So now I know what I need to do, it's just a matter of sticking to it. 

My running is going fantastic!  I bought my first pair of minimalist running shoes (transition shoes).   My first run was 3 miles and my calves were sore for 4 days.  I was walking like an old lady, lit was crazy.   Nothing that I couldn't handle though.  I think I will take it much easier next time I run though.  

My baby, is now WALKING!   The time has literally flown by.  He is the sweetest little boy, who gets into absolutely EVERYTHING.  I especially love when I come home and he runs towards me with a big smile on his face.   It's a great feeling, I am so fortunate to have him in my life. 

My daughter is now able to tell me what she wants, and what she likes and what she doesn't like.  She loves cookies, gummy bears and bunny crackers.  I really need to fix this, it's a bad situation.  I keep telling her we are going to do GAPS together and she will feel really good, and Mama will too.  She just looks at me like I'm crazy.  

Well, I'm tired.  I hope to start posting more.  I find that caring for two young children full time, cooking real, unprocessed food daily (because I have no options to eat out or buy pre made stuff) and trying to keep a clean house leaves  little or no time for blogging.   Every day is a huge undertaking for me.  I enjoy it all, but  it's more intense than I ever thought possible.  Oh, I forgot to throw in getting exercise while entertaining 2 young children, that can be a challenge too.  But I do it every day and I wouldn't change  it for anything.  I know how blessed I am.
