Last night, Tim was able to come over for the first time in two weeks due to his doctor recommended quarantine at home. Finley was so very excited to see his Daddy. A hug took a moment and came after Finley showed Daddy every single toy he has, and his bedroom, his iPad, and his…
Grateful today for clear nostrils! For the last 24 hours I underwent a study where tubes were put down my nose and I wore a computer around my neck to track acidity levels in my esophogaus. Probably one of the least fun activities I have ever done- to say the least. But as bad as…
Today I'm grateful for friendship. Well, more than simple friendship- but lifelong friendship. I'm grateful for the love of a friend who accepts me in my quiet, in my crazy, in my lazy, and in my frenzy. I'm grateful for knowing that friend provides unconditional love in all moments. I'm grateful for a friend…
I believe I'm in day 25 of the 30 days. I haven't updated the blog with my progress because I quickly realized this diet is not very exciting to document. If I cooked and made exotic things that fit into the diet- that would be exciting. But instead, I do what I can each day to…
My sister, Trish, has finally convinced me to try the "Whole 30" diet. I realize this is the second diet I have referred to on the blog, but believe it or not- I don't do a lot of diets. I attempt healthy eating when it's convenient but I'm not good on diets. I like sugar too…

I notice myself thinking about my gratitude for cool air, for pug kisses, for time with family, for socks, for…
So I haven't updated my blog in a while about the diet! Did you think I cheated? That I stopped? Nope! Just been way too busy. I'm currently following the 85% compliance policy. Then it's okay if I go slightly off the diet, but I need to stay within that percentage. But truly, I have…
Day One went pretty well. I noticed I was hungrier at the end of the day but treated myself to some dried apples (which are okay in moderation under this diet). I didn't feel tired after lunch which is new. Dinner consisted of Tuscan Pork and zuchinni. We never eat pork so Tim got very…
I’m trying a thirty day diet of my own making. Losing weight would be wonderful but more than anything, I am trying to kick the addiction to sugar that I have had for a very long time. I am attempting a quasi-Paleo diet. No refined sugars or processed foods. No dairy. I’m putting on my…
