MAMAMARTINEZ's Nov 2008 CalorieKing Blog

Monday, November 24th 2008

Ok, so I guess I'll try to recreate the magic that was my blog entry at 5:30 this morning. It is about 2/3 reflection and 1/3 whining. Brace yourselves.

I am currently preparing for the very trip that inspired my decision to make a radical change in my life last year. We go on an RV camping trip and off-roading in the desert with a bunch of other people. It is pretty much four days of obscene overindulgence: cookies, pie, chips, creamy dips, s'mores, and all manner of starchy goodness. It w...

My Top Reasons For Not Blogging :

Yikes! Really bad heartburn here! For about 4 or 5 days now it's been so bad that it has been uncomfortable to even swallow. My husband finally peer pressured me into taking Maalox at regular intervals until it calms down. I hate taking antiacids. They just make me want to throw up. It's starting to ease up, but I am exhausted because it's been keeping me up at night. OK, I can make it. Just 10 weeks until this baby is out!

This is one of the most well balanced, informative articles I have seen on the issue of immunizing children. I realize that this is somehting that many people feel strongly about, and I respect everyone's right to her own view.
