Me Time!

Matt kept Liam during the day for a few days this week over break. That was the first time he's ever done that! I decided to put Sam in daycare as well, just to stick to our routine. Without realizing or planning it, I ended up with two kid free days. Holy moley. 
Yesterday i worked on Sam's room and took the dresser downstairs for Odila to take. Then i went to Christine's. She was in a similar situation so we met up for coffee. Such fun times! 

I went for a run and them I showered. 
Today i spent the morning organizing the first floor, putting dishes away etc. Then i met Jill and Christine for coffee at Ragged Edge and a walk. We walked to the school but then went to Culps Hill. Then we took the long way down. 5 miles later... what a day. 
I enjoyed these two days. I really needed the break!

I ate the exact same thing the next day. I resolved  myself to absolutely NO cheating, because sugar causes a desire for more sugar. Sugar in me triggers inflammation, which wants more sugar to feel better.  I also cut out gluten. Which I think has had such a significant impact on my progress.  This week a day for...

Coconut Fat Bombs

Okay these things are supposed to have tons of benefits  And they are yummy  1/4 cup chocolate chips, melted  stir in 1 scoop amazing grass superfood 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted 1 tbsp chia seeds So I mixed in a scoop of the Amazing Grass Superfood with it... let's see if he likes it  Pour into muffin tins lined with paper.

Sunday thoughts

  Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. Isaiah 1:27 find this quote to really correlates what's going on in the world today where people are turning away from religion and yet still pointing fingers. They're blaming the immigrants they're blaming the people who are separated from their kids and that they're not loving them the way that God has taught us to love people and I just wish that God would surely bring his spirit and his grace
