Well it has been awhile since I posted, and will try to catch up with this post.  I loved all of the conference talks this time.  I felt like a lot of the talks were for me.  I have been struggling with a few things and I got a lot of answers from the talks.  I will need to study them in more depth so I really understand them.  I already made one decision and that is to quit my FaceBook game of FrontierVille.  I have gotten caught up in it and it has just gotten a lot more time consuming than I want to take out to play it.  I just don't need to waste time doing it anymore, I have a lot more things to do with my time.  I need to block it from my FB page but I don't know how, but I have a friend that I am sure will tell me as she did the same thing.  I have had a lot of trials this past few months, first I got the colon problem, then I got vertigo, and on top of that my back really got into a kink.  I think I pulled a muscle really, at least that is what we decided went wrong as it comes and goes a lot, it gets better and then I move a certain way or turn over in the bed and it starts over:-( it is getting better now, but still is annoying sometimes and hurts.  I have been on a colon cleanse and yeast killing diet for the past two months.  I haven't had any sugar or gluten or white potatoes, rice, or pasta.  She added legumes and brown rice a couple of weeks ago.  I have lost about 15 pounds and my joints feel better.  I went to a Naturopathic doctor as I didn't want to have surgery on my colon.  She is working with me to get my colon healthy again.  It has been a challenge sometimes, but my colon feels better and I haven't gotten anymore bacterial infections in it.  I talked to a lot of people that have had the surgery, and then they either have to do it again or they have to take antibiotics a lot.  That is what I want to avoid, so that is why I have been so faithful on this diet.  It has been hard at times, but I don't miss the sugar as much as I do the nice white loaves of french bread and pizza.  I do miss chocolate and sometimes I think about it and then I remember what surgery entails and it is easy to let it go.  Ed aka, grandpa and dad has been doing a little struggling or his own, too he has had a lot of depression and went to the doctor and is on a new medicine that seem to be helping him a lot.  He is working too hard as usual.  He will be 80 at the end of May on the 29th, so I think he is entitled to be tired.  I am working with a physical therapist for the vertigo, learning how to have better balance, and to use my eyes to balance with not my ears.  I didn't realize that our ears, are such a large part of the balance we have.  I tell all of you stay young, and don't grow mature (I refuse to say older) cause it isn't easy sometimes.  I want all of you to know that I am so proud and happy to have all of you for my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.  You are such a wonderful part of my life and I love you all so much.
