WOW I wonder why none of my six children have allergies,,, I mean I feed them fruit and vegetables, eggs, meat, milk and eggs, nuts and even white flour, and I don’t always know that it is organic or “pure”
There is an eating disorder becoming more and more prevalent caused by the panic and fear people have of eating “impure” foods….yes we need to be careful but studies have not shown a correlation between genetically altered food and allergies nor that organic foods are any better for you! My kids are top of the class academically, good at sports, not overweight. They do not have any food allergies, had very few ear aches as babies and miss very little school due to any kind of illness…so wow I guess I”m just lucky with all the horrible things that I allowed my child to eat that hey are even still alive!?:) The money that the GMO community makes by marketing their “pure” foods is the driving force of this controversy! Of all the things declining in our country and the way our society is headed one of the least of the concerns right now in the overall development of you child is whether or not he/she is eating “pure” foods….it will not give them courage, integrity, honesty or faith in themselves, it will not prevent drug abuse, or driving drunk, it will not make them love you any more or less, it will not get them good grades or into a university…..just saying that sometimes what we do with our kids between meals is by far more important that what they are eating!
Reply So this is just my comments on a GMO sight...the comments are "under review" so in case they are to controversial for the sight I thought I"d just have a copy of them.....
Sometimes the word in which we live is hardly recognizable...sigh...

Ok  so I know you are going to laugh and think "How blond is she" but really I didn't have anyone show me how to do this and not being all that tech savy have to say it annoys me that I can't find where I go to make a background and all the fussy stuff other people do to their blogs! I mean shouldn't there be just a big 
sign for people like me that says Press here for colorful background" or something?
UGH...
Anyway I have a thought which has been bothering me and is somewhat a political rant..which I am prone to do...not meaning to offend but just thoughts whirring thru my head..

There has been much to do over gun control as of late...
There are aprox. 30,000 killed each year in the US by a gun or gun related..
it is estimated two thirds are self inflicted and intentional...
That would leave us with us with only 10,000 a year being murders?
So there are 17,000 die each year of aids or aids related..
Do we not care about those deaths? We don't hear much about them lately..
We can't call those murders do we? Yet I don't think they were intentional? If someone knows they have aids then it would be if they do not disclose it to their partner?
SO what are we saying or doing to outlaw the cause of that type of death?
More babies are murdered thru abortion than guns...yet we do nothing about those deaths?
What about alcohol related deaths? Why is it that our government has picked one type of death to be outraged by? Hmm...I don't suppose it would be political gain? Power? If all death of Americans is to be 

stopped if at all possible why the fuss over guns and not abortion or aids?
Just saying....

Ok now to figure out how to "fuss" up this blog!

Here we go...

Well I'm slow at learning how to update...I know they say it's easy. I know they say it takes little time..but I'm not getting it..so we shall see if this actually is even posted anywhere and if my last post is in the same place!:)

So after two Dr. visits and one more on Monday "nothing" seems to be "amiss".."All" seems to be "in order"

So either the pain that keeps me from sleeping is going to have to get better on it's own...or there is something amiss the Dr's are not finding and it will get worse..

In the mean time I will have to start increasing my running time
and distance..HA of course if I increase my distance my time will increase...so for the next week or two I shall attempt to hit at least 3 miles three times a week...stop laughing!
It's been a miserable 6 month with no sleep, waking due to the pain in my back/ribcage on the left side..that and my husbands snoring!:)

BUT if there is "nothing wrong" then there are no excuses not to just gut it out and increase the mileage...so here we go..

Monday I ran three miles..slow but it was 26 outside so feel I get some extra credit for that!
Tues I ran three"ish" miles..and had to walk a bit at the end up the hill..
Wed. walked with friend...about two miles
Thurs nothing..I mean I ran up and down the stairs with laundry, etc but seemed to have had a major flare up with the RA..SO my
right shoulder and left arm just above and including the wrist were sore, swollen and basically worthless. Trying to get into enough running gear to withstand the cold was not going to happen..and in my defense it was also very icy...even had a two hour school delay!:) 
Today I walked 2 miles, ran 1/2 and had to walk another mile..to icey to venture outside and the lack of sleep seems worse at the end of the week!?! BUT I got in my 3 plus a bit more
Shoulder feeling fine..just a bit sore if lifting much weight..left wrist  almost normal..do not love the treadmill tho I"m glad we have one when the weather is like this!
Update: Friday night horrible! Very dizzy when laying down..ribs hurt...so tired I only walked around the block with my youngest..it's  mile and then I did "the hill" which is about a 5% incline but only a couple hundred yards..Out side of left wrist and middle of right hand feel like I could be having another flare up? but perscrition called in so we'll see if it helps!

Starting...

Everything we do has to start somewhere...
Writting a BLOG seems sooo...I don't know...silly.
Blogs are for people with nothing else to do,,
Or those with so much to do they can only write on their blog to update the world
Or those who think everyone else is really interested in what they are doing
Or those who want to brag about all the amazing things they do.
Or those who are cute and young and fun...
I'm just ordinary.
I'm just average.
I'm just kind of too old for a Blog!?
BUT why not try something new in a New Year!? 
AND why not make a record so to speak of my journey to find out what the heck is making by back ache? And my ears clog so I talk like I have a sinus infection?
Why not a blog?
What a dumb name....BLOG....
But I suppose it's so that those who look at journal keeping or scrapbooking as beneath them have a forum in which to spew their opinions and track their doings...
So hey, here's my "blog"!
