Getting To Know Myself

I've been thinking a lot lately about how I don't know myself. In all honesty, I'm not sure how to do that, either. But I do know that I don't want next year to be anything like this year. So I did some googling and found a set of questions to ask yourself to provoke your thoughts. I figured I'd do one question a day until the end of the year, and see if I know myself a little better than I do now. I'll post all the questions first, so anyone can do it with me. I'll try to add a linky thing to the bottom so you can link up.



  1. How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
  2. If you have the opportunity to get a message across to a large group of people, what would your message be?
  3. Is it possible to lie without saying a word?
  4. If not now, then when?
  5. What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?
  6. Are you holding onto something that you need to let go of?
  7. Have you done anything lately that's worth remembering?
  8. Who do you love? What are you doing about it?
  9. When is it time to stop calculating RISK and REWARDS, and just do what you know is right?
  10. Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?
  11. Would you break the law to save a loved one?
  12. When you're 80+, what will matter to you the most?
  13. Do you ask enough questions? Or do you settle for what you know?
  14. Do you celebrate the things you do have?
  15. When all is said and done, will you have said more than you've done?
  16. When was the last time you tried something new?
  17. What activities make you lose track of time?
  18. If you could do it all over again, would you change anything?
  19. What is the difference between living and existing?
  20. If you have a friend who spoke to you in the same way that you sometimes speak to yourself, how long would you allow that person to be in your life?
  21. If you had to teach something, what would you teach?
  22. Time or money?
  23. Are you aware that someone has it worse than you?
  24. What makes you smile?
  25. What would you regret not fully doing, being or having in your life?

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...

Cortisol and Leptin...

Photo credit I feel so run down. I felt like this most of last week, and ended up taking 3 days off work due to it. This weekend was better - We went to Houston. We spent several hours enjoying the Downtown Aquarium on Saturday, and I enjoyed my PCOS symposium on Sunday. But as soon as I got in the car to head home, this feeling came back. It was so bad that I tossed my cookies less than an hour after we got on the road. This was definitely not from being car sick. I don't get car sick. I was tired all evening, had stupid issues with my homework, and finally went to be at 2-2:30. I realize that was late, and it could explain why I'm tired, but it doesn't explain the run-down, crappy feeling. I got plenty of sleep last week and still felt this way. I think it could be a cortisol issue. I have high cortisol levels. I know I haven't checked with a doctor, but from the information I received at the PCOS symposium, as well as years of research, it fits. I did some more re...
