It's snowing! It's snowing!

But it won't stick, darn it. But it is the first snow of the winter. Yay!

And the painter is almost done in the apartment, he just has another half hour to do some finishing touches, he says. And the contractor still has one or two things to finish up today.

So, a friend came by yesterday to help haul furniture back into the apartment. I still have a ways to go as far as making order in my home, but this is a great step in the right direction. Already I am so relieved.

On a more personal front, I am to remain on the anti-candida diet and regimen for another month, just to make sure we have gotten every last one of those yeastie beasties. I've lost 10 or 11 pounds and feel great. And not eating sugar has made the inflamation in the muscles around my knees disappear. What more can I ask for?

After the next month is up, I will first go off all anti-candida meds (I'm now on something called Alli-Cin, which is a garlic cinnamon combination. The cinnamon also helps curb any sugar cravings I get.) and then I'll start reintroducing good sugars (fruit) into my diet. The doctor says I'll be surprised by how sweet an apple will taste now that my taste buds are not numbed by all the sugar in my diet. Imagine that.

Well, I best go, I've still got a lot to do, plus homework.
