at blogging, now did I?? LoL I tried to blog, but couldn't access it and gave up. Well, actually didn't have the time or energy to continue trying. It was bothering me because I couldn't even post on someone elses blog. Hopefully this is all taken care of now.
Things are pretty much the same. My oldest dd turns 16 in 12 days!! We have 3 more dc's b-days coming soon also.
On Dec. 7th, I changed my diet drastically. It has helped some with my fibromaylga. I went on the Hallelujah diet created by George Malkmus. You can check out www.hacres.com for much more info and if you like sign up for his free bi-monthly magazine and his free weekly e-newsletter to your e-mail addy. He believes in the Genesis 1:29 diet eating 75% raw and 15% cooked foods. Also, juicing organic carrots several times a day and all vegan. I usually eat about 25-30% cooked food. So, I am not following it to a "T". My all day migraines have gone down to about 2 headaches a day, my whole body pain has decreased, my fatigue is not as bad and I have lost 9lbs and continuing. I have also stopped all prescription meds except my sleeping pill. I have tried Tylenol PM, melatonin, and some other all natural sleeping aid.
If anyone has any other ideas, helps for insomnia, I would be so grateful. I have tried baths, candles, reading, bedtime routines and these do not help.
By God's grace we are still homeschooling. I have greatly reduced my expectations and just do half days now. We school all year, so I am not too worried. My children have grown like they never would have if I didn't become sick last spring. There have been blessings through this. Besides the most important thing is their relationship with Christ, not math.
