Well, I am officially 36 today! Birthday's always seem to make one look back, but I have looked back so much I feel like if I look back any more, I may just get stuck there. I have been stuck there for a very long time...but I am free, victorious, and healing.
Therefore, I look to the future, what is to come, new traditions, and a new way of life. I have gone gluten free since about June or July, I think. Since I have found I can't have any gluten without getting very sick-headache for about an hour and a half, tummy issues, and this drugged feeling or what doctors call brain fog, lots of joint pain and my sugars probably go up a bit.
Adventuring in eating out is not so much fun, cause you don't know if they put flour in the gravy...or fry the potatoes in the same oil as the breaded chicken. Flour has become my enemy!!!
I have a new diabetes doctor, that has changed my medication, and I am feeling like a new woman the last two months. I have been able to stop taking metformin all together now. Jay got the elliptical working...and I have been getting on that twice a week when I am not working 10 hour days. Does the future bring more talk about my health?? Hopefully it gets better, no worse from here.
It is nice the kids are older...we were able to play dominos together for a whole hour tonight before the little one was done. They get into their shows and their own projects leaving Jay and I to cook and bake for a few hours at a time.
Jay and I have lots of projects for the house, and my thoughts and ambitions are so much larger than the time and energy I have to put into them. Over all I am happy...Happy for all the blessings I have this year to come, all the fun we get to have together, all the progress we get to make in our careers, with our finances, in parenting, with our health(spiritually, emotionally, and physically), It will be hard, I will cry, and we might fight, but every day will be worth it!
