I'm impatiently waiting for the results of my gluten sensitivity/celiac disease test. I should know within the next three days--it's just that it's already been over 3 weeks. I have been doing my anti-candida elimination diet since the 2nd week in January. I'm down around 15 pounds and hope to keep going for another 10 at least. My wedding rings fit back on last night. That was a big moment. I just want to know what's going on, so that I can meet w/my chiropractor, Dr. Josh, and come up with a gameplan and a list of what I can eat and what I can't.
Seriously, I just want my coffee w/ cream and sugar and some red wine back. I can handle almost anything else. I do miss me some Punch Pizza, too.
Its been 4 months or so since I've written. Don't know what to say about that. Health care bill passed the House last night. Now for the Senate & then Pres. Obama to sign. HOORAY.
Blake took Cedar to Dunn Brothers' on Saturday morning, to give me a little break. He wore his NRA hat into the coffeeshop--the one right by Macalester. Funny.
Still on unemployment. Yep.
Ivy's in the throes of a major cold/yuck/illness. She had a chest x-ray taken last week, and she either has some bronchitis or asthma going on. We're doing the nebulizer treatment twice a day, which is going OK. The first few times she threw a fit, but now she knows it's time that she gets to be snuggled and held. Such good kid. Even if she did keep me up most of last night and now I'm seriously dragging.
Cedar is in a major naughty streak. Twice this weekend she had to be flung over Blake's shoulder, crying and screaming as she was made to leave a store. A few weeks ago, she painted herself, the coffee table, and half the living room with a container off greek yogurt. Her favorite foods right now are fortune cookies and gum. And she prefers "cold water with ice" to drink.
Ivy is saying "What's this/that?" and walking/climbing everywhere. Fearless, this kid is. She loves standing on the arms of the leather chairs so that she can see out the windows. She also says "Hi" about 50 times a day. She's got a confirmed case of eczema, with a bad patch on her cheek. We're working on keeping it under control.
Blake is working a million hours of overtime. It's been nice for the checking account, but we miss him. He and I tried to have some quality time together last night, but Miss Ivy wasn't having any of it. Stinker.
Alison flies in on Thursday, so we can go see the Wilson brothers at the Pantages on Friday night. I am so excited to hang with her and see this show, oh man, I can't even say. I think she's going to spend the night here on Friday--which means I really need to get cleaning.
I just cut off a ton of hair and went back to blonde. So happy! Love Brentt at Moxie St. Paul!
