Brainfog

Brainfog-I heard that term recently and it really seems to describe my life at the moment.  We have lots of change of life things going on for sure: Leah off to college, Jordan turning 18 and all of the paperwork that entails, Mark's job (more of the same-busy), good fiends in change of life circumstances.  It all just seems to swirl sometimes.  I may not be getting enough sleep, Jordan is keeping longer hours and since he's not the kind of kid you can just leave to go to bed whenever....I'm up too. 

I don't know if it will help with how I have been feeling or not but I have decided to take the plunge and do a 2 week trial on the gluten free diet.  I heard something on a show the other day about gluten sensitivities and I had several of the symptoms.  I wouldn't have given the idea any real weight in the first place if it were not for the fact we know Jordan has gluten issues.  I figured that it won't hurt to give this thing a whirl and if I don't feel any better then I will gladly return to my normal diet. 

Praying that the fog lifts or that life will send us a bit of a breather.
