Who is this girl?

I don't know where to start!
I have sat down to right this post several times recently but come up with....nothing.
I have learned so much, but can't seem to share it.

My world has been turned upside down. I am seeing differently in all areas of life.
I've changed.

Some things that I never would have expected:
I'm decided on Homeschooling all the way.
I haven't bought bread since I made my very first loaf. And I love it.
I'm investigating the hazards of refined sugar and flour and experimenting in cooking without. People, I made my own granola.
The idea of going to the gym to get a work out just makes me laugh. A jump rope (actually, I just pretend to have a jump rope) and a 20 lb toddler work wonders.
I can think of one movie I've watched in the last ....3 or 4 months...? I used to be a movie junkie, and I don't even miss it.

None of this is remarkable in and of itself. The remarkable thing is that I am doing these things!? I don't recognize myself.

Which is why I've had such a hard time communicating. My world is confusion, learning, trying to figure out how to be this person I am turning into.

also, andy gave me a recipe for granola but i haven't made it yet because i haven't had time to go buy the necessities. i just realized yours is a link...i'm going to go click on it and see if i can get the stuff at my local grocers.

Thanks Melissa. I'm not fishing for praise, though. Just needed to mention some of the big changes in my life.

oh, i didn't think you were! seriously, i didn't even feel like i was praising you...:) anyway, i have a follow-up question: do you have a bread machine or do you bake it in pans?

Abby said...

in pans.
I'm curious about a bread machine...

melissa said...

oh good, pans! will you give me your recipe or is it a secret?

my mom even bakes bread pretty often with her bread machine, but i think it might be better in pans.
