So, it’s been almost 2 months since my last post.  Ugh.  As tempted as I am to feel like a failure at this whole blogging thing, I have had a lot going on.  In the past 2 months, I’ve traveled over 14,000 miles for work, decided to buy a house, put an offer on a house, missed husband’s emergency surgery while traveling, became a home owner for the first time, organized and completed renovations on our new home, and finally, moved in.  Needless to say, I am really looking forward to going on a beach vacation next weekend to relax a little!

In the meantime, I’ve read a couple interesting health books that I can’t wait to share reviews of with you – one about why we get fat and the other about the miracle of coconut oil (yum!).  I promise, I’ll return to Healthy & Hopeful soon.  As much as I miss it, my body misses it more… all this stress and traveling has sure taken a toll and I am ready to get back to normal!

Plus, now that we have a yard, hopefully I can experiment with gardening – anyone want to learn with me?
