The Blank Page

Does anyone find a blank page somewhat intimidating? All through college, the blank page bothered me, and I find that happening even now when I blog.

AD and I have stuck to our plan for three days now. I am finding that when I cut back on bad carbs (sugar, white bread, white pasta, etc.), that I am not nearly as hungry as I am when I eat them throughout the day. For example, when I used to try to count calories, I would eat those 100 calorie packs of cookies. About 15-20 minutes after I ate the cookies, I would be hungrier than I was prior to eating them. I don't know for sure, but I do believe it has a great deal to do with the sugars/carbs and how my body reacts to them.

AD's diet is very limited. He does not like many fruits and veggies. That seriously hinders him when he tries to watch his food intake. We joke sometimes that when he orders at a restaurant that he may as well order off of the kiddie menu. He's a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy, but his all-time-faves are chicken strips and french fries! I do love him so much, but I pray that he opens his mind to try different types of food soon.

We are making a move in about three months. So, soon, I will be wrapping up this job and adjusting to a new one. Currently, AD is a full-time student of the Bible. Since he's been studying, he's grown so much in his faith and in His walk. He is so much nicer, and our marriage is stronger now than it has been in the past. I am so thankful to the Lord for His faithfulness!

God bless!
