I have been on a 42 year journey and feel as though I have been lost most of the way.
I have taken the road less traveled (only because I do not like crowds).
I have not made the best choices all of the time, but have learnt from most of my mistakes.
I have taken time to smell the flowers, every single one of them, therefore leading me to those roads less traveled.
I have loved with all of my heart and danced like no one was watching, only to end up embarrassed, because someone is always watching, and having a shattered heart that somehow, still finds a way to keep on beating.
I have been kissed in the rain and have followed rainbows until they disappeared, again....ending up on that road less traveled ( with chapped lips)
I have never been a follower, yet never wanted to lead, in fear that I would get us all lost.
I believe in what I cannot see, but have trouble believing my own eyes.
I live each day like it could be my last (hugging and kissing my kids until they can't stand it anymore)
I have had the darkest of days and have been blinded by happiness, now I see mostly spots.
I never thought that my path would lead me to where I am right now, my journey has been made up of trips and falls and leaps of faith.
I close my eyes and let the wind take me away.
I march to the beat of a different drummer.
I do not get a free pass, I do not pass go and I never seem to collect my $200.
I just keep on walking, knowing that this path I am carving out for myself will lead to the place where I am meant to be.
Though right now, I may not know where I am, or how I ended up here, I do know now.. that I am not lost.
I have found myself.

My New Diet Plan- Its Working!
I recently found out that I have a thyroid problem, I learned this through my Chiropractor, who is also a nutritionist. She put me on supplements and a special diet to heal my thyroid. I agreed to go along with it for as long as I could, in hopes of healing and getting my life back to normal.
The diet eliminates all dairy, soy and wheat. You cannot have anything with high fructose corn syrup, or aspartame in it. (low calorie sugar, like sweet-n-low or splenda) When my doctor told me this, I was a little shocked, I live on ice coffee, chocolate and Diet Coke! I didn't have a clue about what I was going to eat for the next 6 weeks. I had my doctor make a list of the things I couldn't have and a list of the new foods that I would be eating for the weeks to come.
When I got home, I immediately got on the computer to try and make sense of this new way of eating. I was surprised to find out that it was an actual diet, not just a way to heal my thyroid. I came across this website http://www.thedietsolutionprogram.com/. I watched the free video, it was loaded with information and answered a lot of the questions I had lingering in my mind. It finally all made sense to me. I ended up buying the ebooks to this diet, they are full of recipes, workouts, shopping lists and everything you need to know about eating healthy. I will be happy to share all the information with you if you are interested.
I have been on the "thyroid healing diet" for about 3 months and have lost 25 pounds! Some of the weight loss is from my thyroid healing and now working properly. The rest of it is from this new way of eating. I finally have hope that I will regain my cute body back someday. I know my body will never be exactly the same as it was B.C. (before children) but I do believe, that one day, I will be able to walk by a mirror and not be afraid to look at the reflection looking back at me.
