I’m trying really hard to keep updating this blog. I feel bad that it seems to be only on Mondays – I promise, I will get onto more of a schedule soon. Life has just been…well, life, lately. Hubby is still job hunting, and any good thoughts (or job prospects!) that you folks can …

(personal) Life: 1, Val: 0
Posted on February 20, 2014
It’s been that kind of week. Hell, it’s been that kind of couple of weeks. Let’s see. First of all, my hubby was laid off last week. Then, my great-uncle died. That was last week. I thought, okay, I can handle this. After all, I’m still employed full-time. He’ll find another job. I’m feeling …
(personal/health) Pain
Posted on January 10, 2014
I’ve been quiet lately, and I’m sorry. I should have sent out at least one project to a friend (sorry, Sue!), and I really should have been writing. And editing. And formatting. I haven’t done anything this week except hunker down and try to ride the pain. Pain is something that I should …
(health/food) Slowly getting back to it
Posted on October 21, 2013
Cons screw me up – even when I go in trying to be healthy, I always seem to end up sick. Bleah. This last week has been super busy as well, so it’s no wonder I ended up with con-crud and all sorts of headaches. That’s why I went to bed early last night, with …
(health update) Day three of completely no gluten
Posted on October 8, 2013

I hate having a depressed immune system. However!!! I resisted Panera this morning! (Managers brought …
(health) When will I learn?
Posted on October 7, 2013
My nephew got married this weeked. Yay, weddings! Except for the fact that most weddings are full of gluten, and I am finding that I am really, really weak when it comes to gluten. This is no one else’s fault but mine. I had rolls and wedding cake and cookies…and I still feel crappy this …
(health/personal) Not letting the stress get the better of me
Posted on September 23, 2013
Part of the reason I write this page every week is to remind myself of what I’m trying to do. Yeah, I know, Yoda said to either do, or do not – there is no try, but honestly, I’m human, not a Jedi Master, and I have to try. Because more often than not lately, …
(health/food/personal) A new week, and more food!
Posted on September 16, 2013
Happy Monday, folks! I think I’ve FINALLY got this cold on the run – I actually took Saturday off and RESTED. Well, I wrote, but I could do that from the couch. Sunday I felt so much better! Ate real food, did chores, and wrote. This is going to be a good food week. …
