I see you but you can't see me

-
Ok really what happened is I fell off of the wagon.  I babysat for 3 1/2 days and nights and I got stressed and I got sick and so I haven't even looked at my goal journal for a week, no picture for you.  However next week I am starting a new plan.  You see I'm so tired of being sick and I've been getting sick very easily.  If you hadn't heard I think I might have Irritable Bowel Syndrome.  However it is not feasable to go to the doctor at this time.  So I feel worse when I eat sugar and I eat a lot!  In fact I am addicted to sugar.  I weigh more than I ever have and I feel worse than I ever have.  So I am doing what I don't usually believe in doing, I'm going on a diet.  But not for losing weight I am doing a diet for sugar/food addiction.  No sugar and no flour, regular meals and no snacks in between, and pre planned food that's weighed and includes a balance of carbs to protein with more vegetables than I'm accustomed to eating.  Don't know how long I'm doing this but I'll try it for now and see what kind of a difference it makes.  As for my other goals, I'm taking a couple off temporarily until my eating becomes easier but the majority are necessary for my life so I'll keep working on them.  However the number one goal will be that evening routine, it sets me up for getting things done in the morning and is where I'll be prepping and planning my food.

    Amber, I have been really suspicious as to whether or not I have IBS as well. That's one reason I have been doing no sugar. Though I still have random moments, it has been a lot better for me this past month. It might be hard in the moment when your addiction tells you that you need it now or you're gonna die, but it feels so good.

    Amber! I'm excited about all of this for you. I hope it makes you feel much better. I've had the same issues. It was getting ridiculous. But I've noticed a big difference with eating healthy and my tummy.

Life Was Not Meant to Be Easy.-Aubrey

I think it is so important to understand that life was never meant to be easy. I have been really struggling lately. Some emotional and some physical, but it is kicking my butt. I have been trying to figure out what I can do to help me, but also properly execute my responsibilities at home as a wife and mother. I have been struggling to even just do the basics without losing my temper or checking out (Aaron has watched quite a bit of tv lately).  I made a check list that is pretty redundant, but it is necessary sometimes with my currant state of mind. It is divided into 4 parts; Personal, Kids, Zach, and Family/House. It has things as little and consistent as prayers and as changing as the specific chores that need to be done that particular day. My checklist haste been a really good way for me to feel like I am getting things done, but also lets me know what I might be neglecting. I noticed this last week that I have put more importance on everybody else so yesterday when I would ...

 Long time no see! Austin and I are finally getting into more of a routine. His class work load is so much easier since switching majors from Mechanical Engineering to Manufacturing Engineering Technology. He's hoping that he might be able to squeeze in a weekend to go hunting this fall, he still needs to call Cameron and talk about it though.  We will be 28 weeks tomorrow, and I am so excited! The weather is starting to cool off, I've got most of our baby stuff washed, organized, and ready to go, and the fall colors are starting to show in the trees! Tonight is our 4/5 hypnobirthing class, and we will be spending the majority learning how to use counterpressure techniques and stuff to help during labor, which I'm pretty pumped about. ALSO, Austin and I both have job interviews on Friday! It's for seasonal positions at Artco (The Occassions Group) making greeting cards for the holidays. They are incredibly flexible with schedules (literally work whenever you want, as th...

 This week is feeling redundant.  I know I still need to get to sleep but I'm so tired of trying and failing so now I want to change my goal.  However, like I said, I still need to get to sleep on time.  So I have as of not yet done much energy work on it and have on many other things which have improved.  Reasons I have failed to use it for this my current goal are many and right now sound like a bunch of excuses so I'm skipping those and today, Monday, am implementing at least one, maybe two techniques.  I will report on any results good or bad and I want progress on this one this week.  I am also going to include it heavily in my prayers, throughout the day if necessary.  This non progress has been the story of my efforts for a long time.  Since I know I'm supposed to focus on it then I am assuming I'm supposed to progress at it.  So here goes this week.  Goals: Planning meeting with God as soon as I am dressed and awake Alarm at...
