Yesterday I shortened a couple of skirts. I've been working on laundry. I did some weeding and mowed the lawn today. I've also been watching college football. Probably too much college football. I enjoy it. I confess, I was relieved when they didn't need me to work the concession booth this weekend. I'm concerned about how I will handle all the fumes from stuff I'm sensitive to. I've asked them to station me on the ice cream cart when I do work, which is outside of the booth. They will make special arrangements for me to take food in. I can't eat anything in the booth.
This diet is very inconvenient. I'm still finding it depressing to go to the grocery store. This week she told me I need to stay gluten free permanently. I'll also be dairy free forever. I've been exploring websites looking for recipes. I have yet to find any meat that I can eat due to all the things that are added to our meat-- even that which is "minimally processed" has chemicals I react to. I can try to add egg now, but it may be easier to just remain vegan. The problem is that the recipes I can have all take time and planning. This is an entire change of my lifestyle. Even the nut butter I can eat is not available commercially. I've become an expert at making it. Actually, there are versions available in specialty shops online, but they all contain ingredients I can't have.
I am pleased that I can have bananas and rice now. Both of those are much appreciated. I'm adjusting. It's just there are times when I'd like to order a pizza. I made all that vegetable soup for the freezer a couple of weeks ago, but it contains gluten, so I can no longer eat it. I'm going to have to find other things I can make for the freezer. I'll figure it out. I told Daughter she could pick out several frozen dinners for meals while she is hear. When we left the store, we had raw fruits and vegetables and a variety of chemical laden frozen dinners. I know better than to try to make Daughter eat vegan....
