Sorry I’ve been so quiet lately. I’ve been dealing with the IBS and allergies. The IBS seems to be back under control. I’m sick of chicken, rice and canned fruit but it was worth getting my system settled down. I didn’t actually last two weeks just eating those things, but I’ve been careful about what I do eat, especially the dairy and feeling better.

Lately it seems if the IBS doesn’t have me down and out, allergies do. Went to the doctor’s Friday, double ear infections and sinus infection. She said she’s gotten call after call about people with their allergies out-of-control. Never thought I’d wish for a frost. We had some last week, but not widespread and not heavy enough to kill everything off.

I don’t know what my weight is or if I’ve lost anymore weight, I’ve stayed away from the killer scale. I did wear a couple pairs of jeans last week I haven’t fit into for a very long time. Yeah!!! I was shocked when I put them on and they fit. I pulled them out of the closet convinced they wouldn’t, giving them a “yeah right, these won’t fit.” Things are moving in the right direction.
