Good morning gals. I am feeling better this morning. I am hoping yesterday was the 'dying off' stage where you feel worse but in fact are getting better. I am so thankful dd didn't get sick! I am also thankful for a holistic doctor who will allow me to start out with natural healing. I was told if I get worse I will have to take antibiotics.

I have grown stevia but started ordering it from mountainroseherbs.com . That is the best place to buy herbs.

Yesterday I got caught up on the zucchini. I think I put another 20 bags in the freezer. I baked chocolate zucchini bread using dark cocoa powder and half the sugar. Yummy.

Dd is getting used to online college. She is changing one class. This isn't going to be easy on her. I know she is concerned what will happen if she has a flare. Bottom line is in the real world we have to learn to cope not matter what our health is like. She will too. We are still praying that SSI will come in. We have one more year to pay on the Stuie loans.

A co worker of dh's gave us water. I didn't realize how nasty the water would taste after it was treated. We will be getting cooking and drinking water from him until the ecoli is cleared up. I am the sixth person to get e coli, in a town of 380 really that is good odds considering all the older people in town.
