It snowed!!!

I was like a kid in a candy store today. Since I am a housewife right now, I got to see the snow fall & stick to the ground. It truly was magical for me as I have lived in Texas all my life. Yes, I've seen snow on a couple of occasions, but to be in real live falling snow rocks!!!

So, I think I have found the issue with my fatigue. I went & got a physical & my vitamin D levels are incredibly low. Normal levels start at 32 & mine is 21. So it makes sense that I am fatigued, my bones ache & I don't recover as quickly as I used to. I never knew Vita D was so important. Also, I guess I can sit my arse out in the sun more often :) I am visiting a nutritionist on Monday & am excited about this. Just a little jump start on that front. This week I've been pretty good about my diet & I am pretty sure it's because we are on a budget. Eating at home makes one helluva difference!

Other than that, things are pretty much same old same old! I hope all is well with everyone.

Peace!

  1. So glad you've got a starting place for feeling better!!! Can't wait to hear what the nutritionist has to say! We went to one this past year, but I really wasn't thrilled with her. We've got some hard dietary restrictions, though, so it wasn't really her fault. :)

    Ahhh... eating in now? Yes, makes a HUGE difference on the amount of money spent! We need to get ahold of our budget, too.

    I sure do wish we lived closer so we could talk food and nutrition! :)

    Now, go sit your butt out in the sun and have a snowball fight! HAHAHAHA! :)

  2. Beck, I agree. It'd be nice to be able to talk about food & nutrition with someone who truly is looking for the best & healthiest way to eat.

    Lol@ eating in. True, Alex & I waste so much money eating out. This year has been a real financial transition for us. Mainly because we get paid once a month & I am not working right now.

    The nutritionist I am going to see (I am not too crazy about them either because anyone can call themselves a nutritionist) is at this place. www.contemporarymedicineassociates.com. For some reason my computer is rebelling against me & I can't paste links.

    I'll keep ya posted!!!
