Candida blues

So I suspect that I’ve been dealing with a yeast overgrowth (candida) for a while now … possibly even a long, long while. I actually bought a 60-day herbal candida cleanse program back when I was getting severe migraines, and I tried altering my diet for a while. That pretty much fell apart when we went on vacation to Colorado and consumed large amounts of beer and pizza.

Struggling with productivity

I haven’t been terribly happy with my productivity so far this week. It’s hard getting back into the groove. It’s almost like I am starting over. The part-time job does not need my services this week, and so I am trying to get used to being productive at home again and working a full day without any wedding distractions. It’s a bit discouraging, because I feel like I have spent the better part of three days in front of the computer and don’t have a whole heck of a lot to show for it.

Trying to turn a night owl into an early bird

I have a confession to make: a teeny part of me is glad that Ryan is out of town this week. Yes, it sucks that we just got married and he is off inspecting levees in western Kansas and I am at home with just the cat for company, but I get to work/write/blog as much as I want without feeling guilty for neglecting my spouse.

Not your average honeymoon

An offbeat wedding wouldn’t be complete without an atypical honeymoon, which is exactly what  Ryan and I experienced earlier this week. Due to several factors (we paid for most of the wedding ourselves, we just took a week-long rock-climbing trip to Colorado in August, and Ryan has an upcoming business trip for which he needed to prepare), we decided to keep our trip low-key and took a three-day excursion to Horseshoe Canyon Ranch, our favorite rock-climbing destination in Arkansas.

New creative endeavors

I have reached a point where I am struggling with what to do with this blog. I have been thinking that maybe I will start feeling motivated to blog more now that the wedding has passed, but I’m not sure if that’s really true. Even with its redesign, my blog isn’t exciting me the way it used to. For a while there, it was my main creative outlet, and I loved thinking of new things to write about. All those topics that I was exploring — natural living, authenticity, etc. — are still important to me, but not at the forefront of my mind any more.

My offbeat (and cheap!) wedding

I said earlier I would provide a little more info about the offbeat and cheap wedding that Ryan and I have put together in a mere two months. Even before we were officially engaged, we kicked around a few ideas for our wedding, including getting married outdoors in Colorado, doing a wedding and adventure honeymoon combo in Costa Rico (rock climbing! horseback riding! yoga!), and just getting married at the courthouse.
