Catch up!

We're still here! Still truckin' away and trying new recipes every day.

I think I can resign myself to the fact that my grocery list and shopping trip will both be quite monumental tasks till I settle in to the new norm.

I made a brand-new Paleo chicken taco/lettuce wrap recipe up on my own yesterday which made me happy. Tonight for dinner, Andy made Paleo Biscuits and Gravy and they were divine!!! Oh I can't tell you how happy we were to taste something bread-like.

Andy has done 5 solid days of Paleo and lost 3 pounds already. (He weighs himself every Friday at the clinic) They was encouraging for both of us to see progress so quickly.

Right now, we're looking into buying raw honey in bulk and starting the search for where (or from whom) to buy grass-fed beef. I think we can only do 1/4th of a cow at a time, and even then, I think we need to search as well for a small garage freezer.

Tomorrow, it's going to be oatmeal & honey for breakfast, chicken ceasar salads for lunch and Paleo BBQ chicken with broccoli for dinner.

Personal note. Today was rough, really rough. Emotions ran high, disappointment and discouragement threatened. My tears ran for a good part of the evening. God remains unchanged.

 I won't say unmoved, because I believe he grieves with us and carries our burdens. I also know him to be the God of angel armies who is mighty to save, and save us he does, in our weakest, saddest moments. My God can bring healing when nothing else can, to restore, or to carry us through our valley. I trust him tonight, to finish in me, and those around me, the good work he began. 

Knowing he sees my tears, 
G'night, N
