"mommy...i want to get off this ride!"

this photo has nothing to do with my post except that I love apples...

and I have been eating a lot of them...just sayin!
It's been one of those days where I have been running since my feet hit the floor way to early this morning.



It was a cooking, baking, delivering, mailing, voting, writing, answering, feeding, diaper changing, tea drinking, caffeine missing, desperate for sugar kind of day. I wanted off the ride by lunch time. It was just CRAZY!



Has anyone else been on this ride lately? I feel like as soon as school went back into session, the insanity began and it hasn't slowed down since. Now that All Hallow's Eve has passed, the race to Thanksgiving has begun. Yowza, where does the time go?? It seems to fly by faster and faster with each passing year and baby I am NOT getting any younger! I am having a heck of a time keeping up.



On top of the usual craziness, I am currently on a 21 day cleanse. Not one of those juice thingy's you see on TV but a food elimination cleanse to see if I am sensitive to wheat, gluten and dairy. So my life has been absent of caffeine, sugar, gluten, red meat or dairy. Yes, it's as bad as it sounds! So I am a little off kilter to start with. Then you throw my life into a blender and whammo...we have today. I can't even drown my sorrows in ice cream...so sad.



What's a girl to do?



As Tim would say "Make it work!"



Put on those track shoes and run baby run! Maybe I'll lose a few more pounds in the process...



Happy Day!
