Long time!

Well...it's been a while, but here I am.  I am going to make an honest attempt to keep up on this blog again.  


As of today, I am not only caffeine-free, but also gluten-free!!! And I have been doing this for about a month now!  Let me tell you, it wasn't easy!  I went into my doc to discuss some other issues and he informed me that due to some recurring hits in my bloodwork, that he wanted me to cut gluten, caffeine, and artificial sweeteners (which was fine because I didn't consume those anyway).  Cutting the gluten from my diet has been one of the hardest things I have ever done....yes, even harder that quitting caffeine!  Though the withdrawal headaches/migraines SUCKED!!!  


With that being said, I am finding that it isn't so bad now.  I miss bread, but I am going to be doing some baking this week, so hopefully that will help to curb some of my cravings.  My hope is to use this blog to just catalog  my journey and share my story.  With it you will probably get some tidbits about my crocheting, and maybe a little bit about school.  Speaking of school, I am in Advanced Statistics and Psychometrics right now and let me tell you, I HATE IT!!!  


Well, that's it for confessions for now!!!
