To be honest I don’t know what I want to write about. I just feel like writing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>My world is shifting. In a good way. But I don’t really have my footing yet so I am not sure what it will look like when my feet reach the ground.<\/p>\n

I have found that eating gluten-free is really good for me. It’s been about 3 weeks now and I can feel the difference. This past week I went with some friends to meet Robyn O’Brien <\/a>for lunch. We talked about the rise in food allergies and the link to the unhealthy changes in our food supply. It was eye opening. I find I can’t put her book, The Unhealthy Truth, down. I don’t want to look but it is a train wreck I can’t look away from. As Robyn says, once you learn this stuff, you can’t unlearn it.<\/p>\n

Wednesday Bob and I saw the doctor. It was nice to get a path of treatment and a name for this yucky-ness happening in my body. For many, lupus conjurers up lots of scary things. I think of it as a gift. One that is going to force me to pay better attention to my body, mind and spirit. All things I am not so good at doing.\u00a0 I guess the universe found a way to make me listen up. It does that.<\/p>\n

Oh what else to say?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I had a lovely night at the Brown Palace<\/a><\/strong> with my friends last week and I have something fun to give away here soon.<\/p>\n

Little guy is about to become a teen<\/strong>. How did that happen? He is getting so much stronger and healthier this summer. I couldn’t be happier. He makes my heart smile.<\/em><\/p>\n

We are having friends visit next week and family for the holidays.<\/p>\n

School is starting back up soon and I realized this will be my last year of driving the big guy<\/strong> to his first day of school. I expect lots of sobbing that day on the way home from that drive.<\/p>\n

I am on steroids that are making me a little bit nutso<\/strong> but making my body feel better.<\/p>\n

And I have the best<\/strong> family and friends in the world.<\/p>\n

*oh, three little disclosures before I let you leave: Stonyfield Organic<\/a> was kind enough to sponsor the lunch with Robyn. I am in an ongoing compensated agreement with the Brown Palace. That is an affiliate link to Robyn’s book above.<\/p>\n

\u00a0*Peace out*<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
