April Resolutions!




Okay, here we go April!

Read 2+ books/ Spend less time online.
Last month, I was a little ambitious with this one. So I decided to dial it back a bit and have the goal to read at least 2 books this month. I'm hoping this will help me not spend so many hours a day online.

Continue to post regularly.
I hope to continue to post at least once or twice (or maybe more!) a week like I did in March. 

Clean room.
This WILL happen by the end of April. No excuses.

March Report Card



Happy Easter everyone! :)
I hope you all had a great day with family and friends. Because what great day it was to celebrate- that He has Risen... He has Risen, Indeed! Hallelujah, hallelujah!!

On to this month's report card...

Keeping Up With My "God Time": I actually did a decent job this month and for the past two weeks, its just become routine and a must for me to have my daily time with God before I do anything else. It also helps that I have a awesome devotional too! Jesus Calling has turned out to be awesome! I just might do a blog post on it in the future, who knows!
Grade: B+

Read 3-4 Books: Total fail. I've been so infatuated with this whole "blogging" thing that I haven't done much reading besides my daily devotional time. I actually just started reading one of Ron Rhodes books a few days ago, but that's about it. But I hope to put this on my resolutions list for next month and get back into my groove of reading again!
Grade: F

FOTD: Coral Ambition

Hi everyone!

 I'm back with a very simple Face Of The Day for you. I decided to throw on some makeup the other day and it actually came pretty good.

Elemental Diet: 5 weeks down, 3 weeks to go!

Hi everyone!

I'm here with an update on the elemental diet I've been on.

For a bit of background info, I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease about 4 and a half years ago. Within the past year, my Crohn's took a turn for the worse in May of 2012 after having surgery prior in October 2011 (we thought this surgery was suppose to solve all my problems). The doctor recommended I'd be put on Remicade and we were not happy with that option. So my parents & I decided to try an alternative treatment and we decided to take up the advice of a family friend who is a chiropractor. After about 7-8 months of trying the treatment, it didn't seem to work. So I was getting ready to go back to my doctor, when something truly God-given happened. After e-mailing Kelli Taylor from She Learns As She Goes, she told me about a website called Listen To Your Gut.

After checking out the website and some of Jini Patel Thompson's books, I decided to try the IBD Remission Diet and as of today, I've completed a 5 weeks of the diet.
