been a long time…

and strangely feel like i have little to say… but that’s probably a lie.

since my last post - almost two weeks ago- some things have happened

my main source of transportation has been put on hold-

first there was the running out of oil, then i ran out of gas- now my back tire is flat- and no one in town will change it. well, i found one place – and without saying too much guaranteed me it would be 100+ to just change it (i already bought the tire) i don’t have 100 dollars to throw at anything.

so i’ve been riding my 21 speed commuter bike- to work, to grocery to do most things- but the gym.

i tested how long it would take me to bike to the gym- i went at a miserable pace, even with the back brake mostly locked (problem fixed) and got there in 15 minutes. not bad, but i’m not yet motivated enough to work out, before i work out.

as it is i arrive at work in shorts, slip ons and a tshirt- beet red face and sweaty hair- run to the restroom to quickly change, powder my nose and make it look like i didn’t run a marathon to arrive on time. is there a more glamorous way of bike commuting? i need to apply it to my life.

in gluten free news- to anyone suffering from HS, or any inflamatory anything i truly suggest going GLUTENFREE- i really think it helps- no, not a doctor, no my doctor didn’t suggest, no i don’t even have a doctor. but i have had years of pain and discomfort and i really see it slowly disappearing to a lowsy memory. my stomach feels a difference if i eat something questionable- i’m even able to note my lactose intolerace a bit more clearly- because i know the vegetables aren’t giving me the pain and discomfort.

this weekend will be a challenge- going to corpus christi to visit the grandparents, probably will be greated with fudge or cookies- that will have to be ’saved for later’ (given away) and eating out challenges. luckily i’ll have my sister with me who’s fighting the same battle.

 and also i’m thinking about becoming a teacher, already got the ball rolling.

  • Hi, have a friend that has HS & has been gluten free for 3 years now & her HS is in remission. I have a thread on the brain talk forum on HS & if you would like any information on GF you can go to Gluten Free & Beyond & we will be happy to help you with any questions & food ideas…

    Yes you also need to be dairy free – at least until you are all healed & then you can try adding some forms of dairy back in.

    Do you mind if I put a link to your blog on the above forum where I am going to start a thread on HS? you can email me, thanks
    Oh & I love your writing style. & yep, I expect your life to change in a big way once you are all well…
    jeanne – Houston, Texas – oh email me where you are – I get around some… :)

    • Thanks for your comments, & feel free to link to my blog.
      might try being dairy free, it’s mostly the chocolates around work that will be the hardest, i’m not a BIG cheese fan- but when i do indulge, i surpass my limits!
      I’ll check out the forum this afternoon!

  • well now we are all human & a little chocolate would probably be okay for you might be okay for you, now & then, we are all different. Just make sure it is a GF chocolate.

    You do not want to cheat on the Gluten Free it can make you very sick…
