I cannot believe 2014 is over. It feels like it just started in some ways. And in other ways it feels like it was a long year! In 2014 I blogged the fewest times {only 18!} of any other year. I started this little blog in 2007, and I had no idea that eight years later I'd still be here. It seems that lots of other bloggers are writing about the fact that blogging is dying. I don't really know if blogging is dying, nor do I really care! I just know I post more pictures on Instagram than anywhere else, and that I rarely post {I mostly stalk} on Facebook. My teenage son says Facebook is for the old people. So who knows where I will be in the next 8 years?!? Or the next 8 months or weeks or days!
I am starting 2015 by doing the Whole30 program for the month of January. I started on January 1st, after eating like a crazy woman for the whole month of December. I felt awful pretty much the whole month. But it is so dang hard to say no to buckeyes, pitch-ins at work, food at parties, and all the deliciousness that surrounds the time from Thanksgiving to New Years! Today is day 6 and I'm still hanging in there. I've had lots of vegetables, meats, and fruits. Cashews and Larabars are my 2 new best friends! And I've been drinking more water than usual because that's pretty much all I can drink. I miss my Diet Dr. Pepper. And cereal. And all things chocolate. But I can do this!! I'm definitely not going to turn this into a diet blog. But I may be talking about food more because I'm starving {not really!}. Saturday night I did dream I ate a breadstick and two pieces of pizza, then remembered I was doing Whole 30. Thankfully it was only a dream!
The kids are back in school. We had a normal day Monday. Then a 2-hour delay today. And tomorrow the wind chills are supposed to be -20 to -30. So who knows what the school day will look like tomorrow. I'm thankful for my wood burning stove for sure in January!
