1. I am feeling kind of icky today. Everyone around me seems to be sick, so I am hoping that it stays with just icky and not full blown SICK!
2. They are saying we could get some ice tomorrow and then a full out ice storm next week, so if you guys don't hear from me that is probably the reason.
3. I have now been on thyroid medicine for a full week. Honestly, I don't feel that different. I have noticed that my sleeping is a bit better. I have struggled with my sleep patterns for years, and that is one of the symptoms of hypothyroidism. This week I have still been waking up during the night a couple of times, but can turn over and go back to sleep rather than staying away for an hour. My skin has also improved some. I was having horribly dry spots all over and those have almost all gone away. Hoping to see some changes on the scale, but will wait a couple weeks before reporting any scale news.The pharmacist told me it could take six weeks before the medicine started improving symptoms, so these small changes are exciting.

You might also want to watch out for soy products, especially if you are a big soy milk drinker.
