And so it begins...

The cupboards were bare so it was time to start my new healthier living life plan. I actually made a grocery list and stuck to it! Jessi went with me and we didn't get anything that wasn't on the list. I'm trying to go back on my IC diet and to get everyone else to eat healthier.

Megy had a doctor appt. today for the sole purpose of getting blood work orders so we can see if she has food allergies. Ryan and Megy waited forever to be told that we should keep her off dairy for 4-6 weeks ad see how she feels. Are you kidding me? I am the Queen of food allergies and Jessi is the reigning Princess. I'm not sure what they were thinking so I will be calling them tomorrow to get the orders. Megy's stomach aches, she gets headaches and rashes. I am not waiting another month to find out that they want to cut out other foods too. I know from experience that it is easier to do the blood test. So now on top of my IC diet I am trying to get back on the dairy free diet. Diet is a very misleading word though. It's more like a way of life and I'm not doing it to lose weight.

I did feel somewhat productive today. I finally cleaned out the file cupboard that I was supposed to clean out at the beginning of the school year. I was hoping to find my high school diploma but it is still missing. I know it is somewhere in this house but I'm not sure where. After that I made hardboiled eggs and got everything ready for chicken salad. I also taught Chase how to make english muffin pizzas. They are a much healthier version of his normal microwave pizzas.

No school today meant no basketball and cheer for Jessi and Danie. That's probably a good thing about bball because I am still in the mood for a throwdown with a coach. We've told Jessi to do her best and rock it no matter what. I will be so glad when it is over.
