Well...summer has been very fun, I must say. Lots of things going on and so many changes in my life. Best thing first...I have lost 43 pounds! My weight loss has been due to a number of things...people, really...I have been working with a nutritionist...see www.marianutrition.com for information on her. She helped me discover that I am gluten intolerant and also helped me ditch sugar. All very important changes in my life...I am off all of my medications except for the one for arthritis. My friend, David, is a massage therapist and he has helped me get off the medications as well...my back is so much better and now he is helping me with my knees. I will be off the arthritis medication as well...shortly. I can walk and sleep without pain meds...he is truly a Magic Man...then, an acupuncturist, Dona. Dona is doing wonderful things for me as well. She has been working on weight loss, edema, pain management, and so much more. I am so grateful for these people!
My sister is home again and feeling much better. She will have to have surgery again in about a year to remove an ostomy bag and reconnect her digestive system. She is getting around better and better. So nice to have her back from the brink.
I have really let my quilting slide. It was too hot to work in my sewing room...and I was having much fun outside with my friends. This summer was so much fun. I hope the fall and winter are as well.
