Holidays!

Merry Christmas! With all my traveling the last couple months, I have been avoiding my blog. Thank you to my readers for checking in. So, I had several sessions with a naturopath and have noticed my body functioning better! I have had more energy which I need with my job. The hives are still coming. She told me to stay on my medication through the holidays and check in with my doctor near the end of January to see if I can go off my meds. I think the increase in hives is from the holiday stress. Although, the holidays are so fun and exciting, there is always stress that follows. Stress breaks down your immune system, so it is extremely important to take care of your health during the holidays. I am headed for New York in 2 days and am praying that my lip doesn't swell up and that my hives are minimal. I will keep you posted. The great thing is, I have been able to go to parties, go out with friends and have a great time despite the hives and itching. I also bought a water filter for my shower to see if that makes a difference. You can find them at Sephora (Jonathan). I love how my hair feels. With all the chlorine in the water, I was being asked if I was a swimmer. I have only used it for a couple days and it is wonderful, but my husband keeps bumping his head on it.

I once bought my kids a set of batteries for Christmas with a note on it saying, toys not included.
