My healing journey continues - I have been free from TSW for quite some time.... about 2 years. But dealing with the extra weight, the asthma, and itty bitty patches of eczema are on my to do list when it comes to full healing. I have had to put off my healthy eating and such for some time given we are moving (finally) to our 68 acres here in Kentucky. Our house is just about done. All we have left to wait for is getting the electricity in. The power company has had to deal with emergencies from recent storms which has delayed us. BUT electricity or not, we are moving our stuff in this weekend. We will stay here at our rental house until the power is all in. So there has been a lot of stress dealing with putting a house on a piece of land out in the middle of nowhere. But we persevered and here we are getting ready to move! So excited!!! My skin has been wonderful and have had very little asthma - in fact it bothers me once every 3-7 days, depending on what I'm eating. For the most part, I think I have it nearly cured....but need to be on a strict diet for 3-6 months and find the appropriate probiotic that won't cause hives. Otherwise....I have a tiny patch on my right wrist and a dime size patch on my chest. Personally I think it's yeast related as almost all my eczema cleared up when I started the caprylic acid. But going sugar and carb free for a short time should do the trick.
In order to eat right and whatnot, I need not to be under so much stress. I'm a realist so I knew my diet was not going to be the best during this time. Hopefully once we move and get somewhat settled, I'll be able to focus on eating better. In the meantime, I took off next week from work so I can get the house somewhat settled. We can't afford the new furniture we want right this minute, so we plan to buy one or 2 pieces at a time. Unfortunately we have a ton of things to buy out of pocket right now, so furniture comes last. Our garage won't be put up until end of August and our front deck in the fall. We also have to put up fencing for the dogs, and homes for the future chickens and guinea hens. Actually our guinea hens are coming in tomorrow so we will have to deal with them while also moving - bad timing but such is life. They weren't expected to ship until first week of August, but coming in early.
Just so everyone knows, I will from time to time update here on this blog, but planning on starting a homesteading blog and video series (on starting up a homestead).
That's it for now...hope you all are having a decent skin day!!
