TGIF!! Man I miss those silly shows from when I was a kid! Full House was much jam— I wanted to be DJ Tanner. Anyway, on today’s agenda: Fast until my ultrasound. I’ve still been dealing with digestive issues and in my gut (pun intended) I don’t think I have “GERD.” I have been really watching what I eat, writing down how I feel after and I’ve made some changes. I’ve noticed fatty/fried foods really bother me (eggs, bacon, ham, etc) so I’ve cut those out. I’ve gone a bit plant based, no/low fat dairy, and gluten free this week. I feel better than I have in weeks, so I’m gonna keep at this, while getting my insides checked out. Both my mom and grandma had their gallbladders removed, and while I’ve never had an “attack” bad enough where I’ve been in the hospital, I’d like to be safe than sorry. I went off Prevacid (as I don’t think I have an acid problem and I felt AWFUL on that medicine last week.) I never know who reads this little blog, but maybe you’re experiencing issues, or have, and for that I share. Last week a friend reached out and told me her doc said it was reflux, but it turns out she had her gallbladder removed and has felt so much better. Lesson: advocate for your body, and figure it out no matter what!Ok moving on to the fun things like this:1. Skinnytaste homemade EASY bagels!My friend Alison brought her kids over yesterday and these delicious *gluten free bagels! I went with this vegan cream cheese and it did not disappoint!! These were such a treat. I will be attempting them in the future! I’d eat one now, but-fasting.
2. I’m looking for a vanity mirror for the bathroom at our current rehab. Shelf or no shelf? Both are on Amazon.
Or 3. These hot little Vince Camuto shoes were $35 on sale! I know it’s 17 degrees and there’s snow on the ground, but these give me hope that soon it won’t be so frigid! They are the perfect height and I think they’ll go well with leggings, skinny jeans, skirts, dresses…fun shorts, you name it! Hurry up Spring/Summer! I saw Jena Green with them on the gram and had to have them. She suggested to size down, and I agree. I’m normally a 9, but 8.5 was perfect.4. I’m currently reading these two books. One for fun, one for leadership. I have only gotten a few pages into them, so I can’t say much!
5. Life has a funny way of just throwing TOTALLY unexpected curveballs atcha. I am a planner. I am an 8. I am someone who likes to be in control, know things, have an outline, a goal mapped out. But sometimes the universe, God and everything else conspires for a greater good. I have no idea what is literally happening tomorrow it seems, but I trust and lay my faith down that everything will work out as it’s supposed to. I don’t meant to “vague-blog” but I just can’t say much because, well I don’t know much. I believe great things are going to happen. I am working on leaning into an abundance mindset and I just know that I am so grateful for my children, my husband, my current home, and our health. With our love, all things are possible.
Make today utterly fabulous!!
