About Me
Photobucket

Name: Page

Location: England, U.K.

A little Info: I live in a small town in the county of Hampshire, England with my husband. I love anything to do with home-making, frugal living and basically I desire to live a better lifestyle that is simple and pleasing to The Lord. I am still in the “learning phrase” at the moment but it is wonderful fun. I also love having this online journal which can be addictive and is certainly a great way of meeting new people, hence I have made quite a few friends over these last few months.

Interests Include: Home-making, card making, dried flower arrangements, writing poetry/articles, baking and anything on the cookery side, cycling, walking, reading, music, gardening and catching up with friends old & new.

Blessings,

****Here is a short update - which is way overdue****

Posted in Journal

Well things have been a little crazy these past few weeks to the point whereby I have not been up to doing anything very much at all.  There is so much going on right now that I have found things a little difficult to cope with.  I have felt so tired, drained and my moods have been extremely low - I have also discovered that I am aenemic and hence now on iron tablets twice a day.  I have had to attend a scan at the hospital and have now been referred to a gynaecologist to find out what is going on with me physically and so on.

Things as you can see have been a struggle and as I am not up and running with my internet provider, I have found it a little difficult to get online at times but I hope this will be rectified within the next couple of weeks.

Our wedding plans have not progressed brilliantly either and I have

yet to do the invitations.  We have a lot of work to do over the next ten days or so and so I do need to pull my finger out here.

I also need to change my diet in some ways and start to eat a more balanced diet so I have worked out a menu plan for this month and from now on if I can do the following then I will be getting somewhere. I have worked out that menus during the week will be fish twice a week, meat/poultry twice a week, vegetarian twice a week with the one day left, being a "leftovers" day.

I am also trying to drink more fruit/herbal teas and water and this is the difficult part but I intend persevering with this.

I was going to post the whole of this months menu plan, but this isnt working out correctly - I will add weekly menus instead.

I will leave this for now and hope to start reading some blogs as I have been awol for so long :(

 


Blessings,

I would have to agree - overdue indeed! I have been wondering if wedding plans have been driving you crazy. Thank you for giving us an update.

I understand the iron delimna - I get severely anemic when pregnant, and it is no fun! I do not know if your dr told you, but there are a few things I have learned about taking iron - one - there are different kinds of iron, some of which can cause constipation and make you so sick, it is not worth it. Iron biglycinate is what works for me.
also, my midwife told me that for maximum absorption, take it with vitamin C (I used orange juice) either 30 min before eating or an hour after eating

“"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you. For I am the Lord your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Saviour" Isaiah 43:1-3
