Gluten-free kid update

I haven’t writ­ten about Grem­lin and his food aller­gies in awhile because it’s become just a part of life. He knows what he can or can­not have and we eat around that. The only hic­cups that come are eat­ing at some­one else’s house. I think we’ve finally worked out any school issues:   1. He […]

Diets are Culturally Deprived

I’ve been on diets before. Or rather I’ve cheated on diets before. A few weeks ago I stood on the scale and about lost my uppers. I had never been that heavy in my life. How­ever, I have had a pretty stress­ful year and  I had just turned 40. Bye, bye metab­o­lism! It was time […]

Turning 40

I sit here think­ing I should be doing some­thing about this 40 thing. Like maybe let­ting “him” know I’m here. *eye roll* Hurry up and wait. I’m not sure how I’m sup­posed to feel at 40, but I don’t feel any dif­fer­ent than yes­ter­day when I was 39. It was so much cooler turn­ing 10…double dig­its!! Then 20 […]

Boundaries not Resolutions

Any­one with a child knows that bound­aries can be hard to main­tain, but they make life so much sim­pler in the long run. I gave up New Year Res­o­lu­tions years ago. It was just another dis­ap­point­ment that I had to over­come.  I thought doing away with res­o­lu­tions made me a super cool rebel­lious chick. Lame, I […]
