My thoughts...

I'm sure some of you who have been following this blog for a while have noticed the lack of posts lately, I apologize. As some of you know I have been battling some health issues that have left me very exhausted and lately it has become more severe, limiting my ability to take care of my family the way I would like.  I've been so extremely fatigued that preparing a meal seems daunting and exhausting, so I have been resorting to quick and easy meals (and not trying many new recipes). We are hoping to get some answers and help soon, as I am scheduled to start seeing a Naturopath in a couple of weeks.  It's time to have some more blood work done and see if I can't get some help getting better. For right now I am resting a lot, eating well (just finished a slightly modified Whole 30 and am looking to start another one), seeing my Chiropractor and massage therapist regularly and not doing any form of exercise for the next 7 weeks (at the recommendation of someone who knows a whole lot more than me!).  That last one is a tough one for me mentally, although honestly I know that physically I couldn't run or workout even if I wanted to right now, just climbing a flight of stairs is hard work.  Some days are better than others, and on those days I intend to grab the world by the horns and enjoy it!  Today started out that way, the first day in weeks that I actually had some moderate energy, at least enough to wash the dog, do some laundry and a little light housekeeping.  I'm learning to embrace this trial, and to cling to my faith in God, my family and my friends.  They have all been a huge support and I don't know where I would be without them and the Lord.  All that to say, I may not be doing many posts in the next few weeks.  I have a million (okay, maybe that's a slight exaggeration) half written articles and partially tested recipes waiting for you all.  But I have such limited energy that I really feel the little energy I do have, needs to be focussed on my family and getting better.  I do have a post on How to Make Kombucha that I worked on finishing today, and hope to keep pecking away at until it's ready to post (hopefully that's soon).  I really love blogging and look forward to when I can do more of it again (or at least more consistently), share new recipes with you again, and who knows maybe even blog about my journey to health and what I learned.
