I am blogging from Starbucks. I am so f-ing cool. Now that we'rw done with that... it's been awhile. Sorry to my loyal readers (both of you), but as much as I love December I freakin' hate it. But the birthdays are done (I am now 26... so close to 30!) and Christmas is in 4 days and that is when my head really starts spinning. And I really hate Dec 26-31. There just seems to be no point.
In mommy news, I am pretty sure I am ready to go back to work now. Ahh. I love being with the kids, but I dunno. I don't think I am good at this. Blah. Also, I was all huffy and puffy everyday at work over the fact that I had no time to write and it just made my life so miserable... well, I have been off almost 3 months and I can't even keep up with a blog. Yes, I am failure... and clearly feeling a wee bit sorry for myself this evening.
So, I am attempting to try to phase out gluten from my life. Heh. I am starting slow. Before I got pregnant with Kellan I thought I had celiac's, but my doc blamed everything on IBS and it kind of fell by the wayward as symptoms improved eventually throughout pregnancy. Well, now some of the same issues are coming back (don't worry we won't touch anything gastrointestinal here) with the headaches (ok those never actually go away), hair loss, fatigue, depression... which of course can be a number of things, but I figure it wouldn't hurt to try and see if it helps. Plus, Tina posted a blog at an amazing time and inspired me to actually give it a go. I guess my main motivation is I would like to try something new and feel healthier and quit taking the freakin 6 medications I am supposed to be taking everyday. I feel so toxic. I am not even super hippy dippy or solely an organic advocate, but like I said... gotta give something a go at this point. It will be the hardest to transition the kids and I am not sure that I will because thus far they don't seem to have any intolerance issues (except Kellan and his dairy but that's a whole 'nother blog...ugh) and I really don't want to make things difficult for them with food issues(school, friends, etc) but we shall see. I have to re-learn to cook and everything will be so expensive... BUT I shall prevail... slowly. It's weird to go from my previous 'diet' attempts... in which I quit eating red meat 4 years ago due to the IBS, to now having to make a point to eat a LOT of meat and veggies. It's a total 180, seeing as I am used to buying 100% whole grain and wheat this and that...
Ok, I have escaped for a good two hours now between the gym and the Bux... so I guess I will pack it in and head home... Au Revior lovelies!
