Anxiety- Seriously? This is what I said to the doctor when I was told I had anxiety. Most everyone has experienced a form of anxiety at one point in their life for various reasons. It could be starting a new job or going on stage or even meeting the in-laws. Many of these situations might cause a person to have a healthy amount of anxiousness, but its when you get that extremely high level on a continuous basis that sets off the alarm bell. Waking up from a perfectly fine sleep in the middle of the night feeling panicked and heart racing for no reason is not a roller coaster I care to be on. This was happening to me. A couple of years ago I started having this racing feeling in my chest followed by icy cold sweaty hands, dizziness and sometimes shaking as if I was cold.

"My baby is gone!" "I don't care how old you are or that you are a Marine your still my baby and I worry". Yep, I said those words to my 6'1 Marine who is 21 years old.

A compliment and a slap at the same time. I did such a good job she is gone. I cried, yep just like a baby a big ugly cry. When your children leave either for good or just for college or military training its not easy. In fact it sucks big time.

Day 2- fitness, paleo, marriage, family
Hey there! What a beautiful day today. Finally stopped raining for a minute. I love the sun! I have found if I do not get enough sunlight I feel a bit down. How about you? So yesterday I was talking about Paleo and my husband and I starting our venture into the Paleo lifestyle and eating. We decided in the beginning about 4 weeks ago to try out some of the meals we found on line mostly from a show called The Paleo Way by Pete Evens. After we tried several recipes and how it felt to replace traditional carb filled meals with these healthy high fat and low carb meals we decided it was something we wanted to take to the next level. Actually one night my husband a drive through junkie started reading all the labels while helping put the groceries away. he said,"I can't believe sugar and High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is in everything." Then he said, "Well I guess if we are going to do this we need to get rid of everything, right?" I was in total disbelieve. It...
