The symptoms that you experience are from the release of histamine. Histamine affects the following systems:<span style=""><br /><br /></span>Respiratory – increased histamine can cause muscle constriction and affect breathing.<br /><br />Liver – becomes weakened which causes its productivity to remove toxins to be hindered and the body’s response to invaders to be compromised.<br /><br />Adrenals – if the body is stressed, cortisol is released to try and promote an anti-inflammatory environment. Long term stimulation of adrenals can lead to a host of other problems.<br /><br />Immune system – to fight off invaders, the body will increase in IgE antibodies, which causes the blood vessels to dilate, the intruder to migrate further into the system and the system to react with more severe symptoms.<br /><br />As you can see, the histamine response can be a vicious cycle.<span style=""> </span>It breaks down the proper function of your nervous system and your immunity. This is the reason that you may have been introduced to a certain pollen before and never reacted, but introducing it this season has given you horrid allergic reactions – your nervous system is out of balance and sending histamine out improperly. Something has caused a shift in your threshold and now instead of being able to properly function, your immune system is on edge and overreacts to the slightest foreign substance.<br /><br />Many people like to take allergy medicine to mask the symptoms. Pharmaceutical commercials tell us that histamine is the culprit and by covering up histamine, we are now able to breathe again and are totally healthy. To this, I ask, was your body in shortage of allergy pills before? Have you given your body what it was depleted in and now it is functioning fine? Or is it that the medicine/shots/inhalers are just keeping the symptoms covered up but leaving the real underlying problem at bay?<br /><br />Here are alternative treatments:<span style="font-family:Symbol;"><span style=""><br /><br />·<span style=";font-family:";font-size:7pt;" > </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Get adjusted regularly! Chiropractic adjustments help shift your nervous system toward the parasympathetic state and away from stress mode. This gives your body a chance to increase its immunity. It also removes any interference in the immunity pathways so your body can heal more efficiently<span style="font-family:Symbol;"><span style=""><br /><br />·<span style=";font-family:";font-size:7pt;" > </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Make sure your lifestyle isn’t running you into the ground. Get rest, drink water, exercise, eat healthful foods! If you think one of the aforementioned things isn’t affecting your immunity, think again. Sometimes just changing those small things can make a big difference in the way we feel.<span style="font-family:Symbol;"><span style=""><br /><br />·<span style=";font-family:";font-size:7pt;" > </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Ask your chiropractor about the following supplements: homeopathic medications, essential fatty acids, probiotics, adrenal support and a good multivitamin with high anti-oxidants. One or more of your systems may be needing some extra support and taking a simple supplement until it can function on its own may be an easy fix.Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-13687794829783047422010-05-03T17:52:00.000-07:002010-05-03T18:04:49.822-07:00Oh Geez<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/S99yUArCV3I/AAAAAAAABDc/mN0sbmJCSjU/s1600/tilliescratching.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 374px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/S99yUArCV3I/AAAAAAAABDc/mN0sbmJCSjU/s400/tilliescratching.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5467214160754530162" border="0" /></a><br />Tillie, who has always scratched the front door to tell us she needs to go outside, has recently learned that there are other doors besides the front door. Now, her favorite thing to do is go sit on the balcony. She scratches ALL DAY to go on the balcony and just sit. And then she will scratch to get back in. I think there are permanent scratches on the sliding glass door now. Oops.<br /><br />If the bathroom or bedroom door is closed, she will scratch trying to get in. Even if the door is just a little cracked she will kick it in with her little paw. She is so HIGH MAINTENANCE.

It's a downer when he leaves. :( It's fortunate, however that on certain trips I can tag along and see places we otherwise wouldn't have set aside time to visit. The next road trip Mike has to set out on is to New York City. He leaves a week from Saturday. He knew I was totally bummed that he was having to leave again, so he bought me a ticket to go with him and moved his flight up so we could spend the weekend there! Yay! I want to go to a play, Chinatown and Central Park. Fun times, People, fun times! I have such a wonderful husband and feel so blessed with our life. God amazes me.<br /><br />The vacation that we've actually been planning for a little while now finally came together and I can't wait! We are going to Hawaii in May! Whoo-hoo! We had been debating on which island to stay at, bed & breakfast or resort, which activities to plan and it finally came together yesterday. It's going to be Freakin'. Awesome.<br /><br />One of my patients told me that she read a survey that said that it's not the actual vacation that people enjoy so much as the anticipation of the vacation. I'm there, Folks. Anticipating. For. Awesomeness. :)Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-48688932467853996022010-02-22T16:12:00.000-08:002010-02-22T16:50:36.777-08:00AustinMichael is at a convention in Austin this week. I drove down with him Saturday after my patients and made a weekend out of it.<br /><br />Saturday night we went to dinner at Iron Cactus and then went to listen to live music. I now truly understand why Austin is the live music capital of the world. It was impressive. What's odd is that Dallas has the exact same potential in Deep Ellum that is a big fail. I guess Dallas just doesn't have enough "weird" in its city limits to keep an artsy area like that going. We listened to a band made up of elderly men (seriously one guy was missing his teeth). At first, we didn't know what to expect. We just went somewhere without a cover hoping it would be good. When we saw the men shuffling their way up to the stage Mike whispered, "Let's stay for a few songs to be nice." When they started playing, they blew us away! We ended up staying until we just absolutely couldn't keep our eyes open because they were that awesome.<br /><br />On Sunday, we drove out to the Inner Space Caverns. It's been years since I have been to any caverns and what a cool experience it is! We paid extra for a whole 20 minutes of "unpathed caves" where you get a flashlight and go back in the caves as far as you can without crawling to go under something. I wouldn't suggest anyone doing that. It was just a part of the cave with the lights off and they gave us a flashlight to wander around for a few minutes. But seeing the cave is such a cool experience. We saw plenty of little bats and they are surprisingly cute in person. :)<br /><br />Mike had to start his conference on Sunday afternoon so I rested in the hotel room while he had to work. :P That night there was a little get together for his conference so I got to see some of his co-workers that I knew and meet others for the first time. And guess where the get together was? Iron Cactus! We were apparently destined to eat there. Good thing their food is awesome!<br /><br />I had to catch a flight at 7:30 this morning. :( Mike drives back on Thursday. I'm grateful I got to spend some time with my hubby even if we can't be together for the next few days.Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-34561558408830141732010-02-10T09:56:00.000-08:002010-02-10T10:21:50.445-08:00Why Would You Ever Waste Your Day Worrying?I woke up today with a new sense of purpose. Isn't it funny how easily it can get lost? In all of the "what if's," "wish I had's," and "waiting on's" I sometimes forget that today is the now. Life is not the past or the future but the present.<br /><br />This seems to be a practice that I'm not very good at. In the past I have so focused on when I graduate, when I have my own practice, when I get married, when we own a house, etc. etc. etc. and have forgotten that waking up with my pug snoring louder than any human, worrying that I won't have time to brush my hair before I fly out the door to the office and wondering if I'll have enough money at the end of the month to pay my bills is all part of life. Life that no doubt can be stressful, hateful and spiteful but joyous all the same! It's easy to say "life is what you make of it" and "change your attitude and it will change your life" but honestly, I don't feel this is 100% accurate. I do believe that sometimes we can wake up and put on a fake smile and make the day better with the "fake it to make it" attitude but sometimes we just have to wake up to the "Really, God, really?" of it all and enjoy the ride.<br /><br />Today, I am learning to be grateful for the now. For the miraculous now. Stress, pain, suffering, all of it. Thank you Lord for the joy of pain, for the lessons to come and the knowledge to be able to acknowledge the what the heck of it all and still enjoy it.Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-27539736267959095002010-01-09T21:43:00.001-08:002010-01-09T21:46:18.634-08:00Check Out The New Website!Mike built a new website for the office and it looks ahh-mazing!

Good food, good family, good presents...Val fed Santa's reindeer the special reindeer food that she made and picked out jewelry with Grandma to leave for Mrs. Claus on Christmas eve and was up bright and early to see what Santa left for her Christmas morning. Mom made a feast on Christmas day and the boys were obsessed with shooting their new guns afterward which was really cute to watch them so excited. Val banked it from Santa and we played games all day on what he brought her. She was so cute and wanted to wear all her new clothes and hat and gloves all at once. We made great memories and had a wonderful time!Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-84208483486510063612009-12-13T07:38:00.000-08:002009-12-13T07:41:04.173-08:00Hey All!I know I have some mad catching up to do on postings, but in the meanwhile enjoy all of the new stuff I've added to my blog! I've added some people to my bloglist that for the most part are on board with my teachings. Of course, if you read anything that sounds fishy, ask before taking it as face because I haven't gone through everything posted on all of these blogs. Enjoy!

It was crazy crowded but we had a blast. We didn't try the fried butter (none of us were that brave) but we did try the fried Oreos and they were amazing! Crystal said she was going to buy a deep fryer just to make them at home. LOL. I would be there everyday. ;)<br /><br />Mike and I rode the Ferris Wheel, we watched Jeff and Val ride the Arctic Express, we saw the largest crocodile and alligator in North America, played some fair games and went to the car show. I was worried for Jeff as he rode the Arctic Express; I don't think I would fair as well, but he was just fine. That is, until it went backwards. LOL. His facial expression sure did change but he felt way better than I would have. I'm too old for rides now. I told Crystal if I drive down a steep hill these days, it's enough of a roller coaster ride for my equilibrium. Sad but true! Good thing Val has Jeff for things like this! :)<br /></div></div>Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-65123972998643497972009-10-21T16:39:00.000-07:002009-10-21T16:50:08.260-07:00Southlake Oktoberfest 2009<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-b9AR4rKI/AAAAAAAAAx4/u6ok1vQN964/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+001.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-b9AR4rKI/AAAAAAAAAx4/u6ok1vQN964/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+001.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395202350962486434" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-b8uWR4zI/AAAAAAAAAxw/X_a3OZP6Bvs/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+018.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-b8uWR4zI/AAAAAAAAAxw/X_a3OZP6Bvs/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+018.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395202346149077810" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Southlake Oktoberfest was definitely a fall festival according to the weather. Luckily Michael and I had the help of our sidekicks Crystal (yes, that is a snuggie!), Valerie and Jeff. Oh, and our best saleslady of them all, Tillie. It did bring in new business and although it was a looooong, cooooold weekend I think it was worth it. I'm glad my brother's family could come help and I think Val had fun riding the train, jumping in the jump zone and climbing the rock wall. And she said the lemonade wasn't bad either. ;)Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-79093226339151414092009-10-20T19:58:00.000-07:002009-10-21T16:39:04.131-07:00How Could You Not Love This Face?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-Z0JDjAcI/AAAAAAAAAxg/D4keGD_SWEs/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+020.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-Z0JDjAcI/AAAAAAAAAxg/D4keGD_SWEs/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+020.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395199999676187074" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-Zz8Lv2mI/AAAAAAAAAxY/j60F5aIgHqs/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+014.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-Zz8Lv2mI/AAAAAAAAAxY/j60F5aIgHqs/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+014.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395199996220922466" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-ZzeNzssI/AAAAAAAAAxQ/JlM6josg-OQ/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+010.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-ZzeNzssI/AAAAAAAAAxQ/JlM6josg-OQ/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395199988176499394" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-ZzDEWuzI/AAAAAAAAAxI/Vc__sfBbO3E/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+005.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-ZzDEWuzI/AAAAAAAAAxI/Vc__sfBbO3E/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395199980889094962" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-ZyvAk-zI/AAAAAAAAAxA/BeJnSv07ytw/s1600-h/OKTOBERFESTIVS+004.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-ZyvAk-zI/AAAAAAAAAxA/BeJnSv07ytw/s400/OKTOBERFESTIVS+004.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395199975504542514" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-aBKrGpmI/AAAAAAAAAxo/Y0lp9_kpvSQ/s1600-h/beights+kids.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 186px; height: 280px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/St-aBKrGpmI/AAAAAAAAAxo/Y0lp9_kpvSQ/s400/beights+kids.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395200223448835682" border="0" /></a>Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-7547364977408205022009-09-23T11:40:00.000-07:002009-09-23T12:02:57.390-07:00Poker FaceI would say that most of the time I go through different experiences and really question what God wanted me to learn. This week, however, I got the message loud and clear. I hear you God, OK, now hopefully I've learned my lesson and this difficulty I have won't be such an issue anymore, right? Then why do I have a pit in my stomach even just typing that...ugh. Oh well, I digress...<br /><br />Remember one of my last posts I shared with you all how I was feeling used and walked on? Well, if you recall, I didn't do anything about it except whine. Obviously I didn't learn much from it, eh? Well, maybe that's why God decided to give me the week that i had last week.<br /><br />Does anyone else out there have trouble with confrontation? It's not even so much that I have trouble with it, but that I tend to swing way too far one way or the other. It's either I confront you and tell you how horrible you are and we are forever enemies, or (what usually happens) is I decide to let things slide and hope that you will come around and realize your rudeness or selfishness or insert hurtful adjective here. In the business world, that doesn't so much happen. Weird, I know, that's what I thought. You would think that people would have the same morals, ethics and kindness when doing business that they would otherwise have when dealing with their family or friends.<br /><br />Well, I'm going to give a big thanks to our condo management company, our Chamber of Commerce, a fellow doctor and others (you know who you are) who really pushed me to learn when to say "uncle." I had to stand up to each and every one of you and I didn't get to say that we are forever enemies because I have to work with you whether I like it or not.<br /><br />Now if I could just work on that poker face and not let them see how hurt and full of emotion I was when discussing with them...Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-54827535642010800492009-09-23T11:35:00.000-07:002009-09-23T11:40:36.754-07:00Smell That?Before refrigeration, we had to depend on color, smell and the consistency of our food to know whether it was edible. Now, 90% of all of the money that Americans spend on food goes to fast food giants. So why do we reach for the two all beef patties, special sauce, onions, cheese, pickles, lettuce on a sesame seed bun instead of carrot sticks and apples slices?<br /><br />Well, turns out canning, freezing, dehydrating and storing food gives it a cardboard taste. No one wants something that tastes of cardboard. So what’s a fast food chain to do? Take it to the lab. Chemical factories came to the rescue in an attempt to reproduce the original taste of foods. That unique taste that a fast food burger has actually comes from a scientist in a white lab coat applying a few drops of specialized chemicals dubbed “flavoring.” Some even got smart and started claiming “natural flavoring.” Don’t be fooled; there is little to no difference between natural flavor and artificial flavor. Both are man made additives doing what they do best-enticing your sense of smell. Up to 90 % of flavor comes from the aroma of food. Our taste buds can account for bitter, sweet, salty and sour but our sense of smell is where it’s at. Basically, the science behind the scent of your perfume is the same as the one that is added to give flavoring to your sausage biscuit.<br /><br />Maybe one day we will all be able to buy a big vial of burger essence to sprinkle on our carrot sticks and save ourselves calories. At least then we would know there was some sort of nutritional value behind the flavor. As is, the nutritional value to a fast food burger is about the same as eating the plastic wrapping surrounding it. Don’t let the nostalgic aromas get to you, reach for the carrot stick instead.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Lagerquist, Ron. </span><a href="http://bit.ly/4hOGaE"><span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:78%;">http://bit.ly/4hOGaE</span></a>Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-72196230079738396212009-09-08T10:00:00.001-07:002009-09-08T11:18:01.936-07:00Labor DayLabor Day weekend was great! Mike wasn't on call for the first weekend since I can't even remember when. He had to reintroduce himself. I didn't even recognize him without the computer attached.<br /><br />Friday, our new dining room furniture was delivered (see below). Ooh-la-la!<br /><br />Saturday, we went to dinner and movies with Jeff, Crystal and Valerie. We saw "All About Steve." I really don't understand the bad ratings this movie received. I laughed and laughed. I really believed Sandra Bullock to be a kooky nerd. Way cute. We went to the Inwood Theatre that one of my friends has been trying to get me to go to for ages. I'm glad we did. The seats were A+. You know how usually you go to the movies and the weird fabric is all creepy from previous soda spills and you don't wanna know what else? Not these! They were vinyl I think. And clean. Imagine that? No creepy stains. You don't have to squint in the dim lighting or do a test brush off with the palm of your hand to make sure it's soda free. AND they didn't lean back at a weird angle or have a bump for a headrest that never quite sits at the right place and causes you to get a crick in the neck. Crick free! (In case you're wondering, I'm really not <em>that </em>picky when I go to the movies. However, after experiencing such a comfortable seating arrangement at said theatre, I couldn't help noticing the difference.)<br /><br />Sunday, we did some shopping for the house - picture frames, new vacuum, etc. I will never again question whether or not my vacuum is sufficient. I will just go buy a new one. After vacuuming and wondering "Is this working like it should?" we finally just went and got a new one. I was excited to use it and even though I had just vacuumed that morning, I decided to use my new one. What was hanging out on our carpet despite the vacuuming done just hours prior was frightening! Pet fur=necessity for fully functioning question-free vacuum. <br /><br />Our friend, Chris, came over later and the boys hit the xbox while I spent HOURS trying to print out some wedding photos from Walgreens. What a nightmare. Load. Drive to Walgreens. Images too small. Drive back. Reload. Drive to Walgreens. Half of images too small. Drive back. Rinse and repeat until 3 AM. I was determined to get some photos printed. I ended up with a beautiful wedding album. All worked out nicely. :) Eventually.<br /><br />Monday, we did more shopping for the house! We found a wrought iron patio set at Academy on sale. You must note that we drove <strong><em>everywhere</em></strong> to try and find patio furniture. What's with no one having furniture? Is it the wrong season? Did they all sell out? It was mind boggling. Home Depot, Target, Walmart...you all let us down. We did end up with a killer deal at Academy with a way nicer set than we expected, though so take that other stores that wasted our time!<br /><br />You know what's funny about buying things like patio furniture? When you're standing there in the isle looking at a round table with four chairs, you think "Oh yeah, that'll totally fit in my car." Then, your husband stands in line to pay and you swing the car around to load it and the Academy store worker says "it won't fit" and you think "OK, Mr. Academy-store-worker. You don't have to help us load it if you really don't want to but you don't have to lie about it." And then you and your husband try to shove in a round, unforgiving, wrought iron table top that just doesn't seem to budge into the backseat of your Civic and it hits you. You are that couple. Parked at the entrance of Academy, pushing on a tabletop so hard that you are sweating. And it's going nowhere. Everyone can see that it doesn't fit except you. But you keep pushing. And you keep hoping that people walk by you fast enough not to notice that it doesn't fit and it never will. Then you set the tabletop aside hoping that you can somehow strap it to the roof of your car and you focus on putting the four patio chairs in there. Somehow... <br /><br />Don't worry folks. An hour later...success! Then you get that "See, I told you it would fit" smile on your face even though you really shouldn't because in reality, you had no clue that it was actually going to work and there for a while you were pretty certain that it wouldn't. Not to mention your husband had to go back in the store for rope to tie down the tabletop to the roof of your Civic while you drive down back roads with the windows down and your hazzards on acting like it's a totally normal occurance that you completely planned. Perseverance, my friends. Perseverance.<br /><br />With our new patio furniture, we really wanted to enjoy dinner outside. Since we live in a condo, we can't have a grill on our patio and there's no space downstairs which is a pretty sad situation considering how good Mike is at grilling and how much fun it is to change up the pace from cooking in a hot kitchen. Mike decided this didn't have to be so. He wanted to get a huge George Foreman grill and cook out on our new patio table. So we did and it was a success! What great ingenuity my husband has. You never would have known that our steak fajitas weren't prepared on a gas grill (unless you noticed the extension cord running outside. Hehe). He is an excellent cook!<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SqadH0J2fuI/AAAAAAAAAwg/NmZVDmyacMM/s1600-h/IMG_0207.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SqadH0J2fuI/AAAAAAAAAwg/NmZVDmyacMM/s400/IMG_0207.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379159562525245154" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SqadHUBrjDI/AAAAAAAAAwY/AfD2k96g7Eg/s1600-h/IMG_0201.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SqadHUBrjDI/AAAAAAAAAwY/AfD2k96g7Eg/s400/IMG_0201.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379159553901038642" /></a><br />Something about spending the evening outside listening to music on the patio, or maybe it was just that neither Mike nor I had to worry about work or schedules, I'm not sure, but the greatest thing about Labor Day weekend was just being. Really enjoying Mike's company.

<br />Isn't this the most beautiful dining room set you've ever seen? Thanks. :)
<br />
<br />I printed and hung the wedding pictures above the buffet in a pretty frame that looks much better in person. I also have a mirror that I want to make a mosaic frame for out of cobalt blue tile to bring out the blue in my dishes. I have no idea how to do that. If anyone knows of a good website with instructions, let me know! I have a feeling Mom can help me out with that one.
<br />
<br />I could live on this table. I love it that much. The base of the buffet and table have that really pretty 'U' shape instead of legs which is elegant looking with the half circle pattern on the chairs and curio. AND the chairs are so comfortable! They are all cushoin-y and made of microsuede. It's perfect. I plan on having it forever.

Beyond tired. My hormones are amuck and it's not fair. This is what happens when I don't take care of myself. My thyroid goes berserk and my hormones tag along. Then I get tired and crazy.<br /><br />Remember back when my hair was straight and I was all happy go lucky and could dance a jig around the most energetic person? Not today. Oh those were the days. I blame chiropractic school. The stress from school stole my adrenal function and my susceptible thyroid came crashing down and now I feel like what an elderly person with diminished muscle strength must feel. That causes my hormones to be imbalanced and I become cranky.<br /><br />That is what *I think* may be the culprit to my feelings this weekend. I feel dumped on and taken advantage of. It's my fault really. I could say no. Let's face it. I give away a lot of free care. Up until now, I've never thought twice about it. It's a gift and it's meant to be shared!<br /><br />It started Saturday night. Mike had just returned from a week long trip, mind you, which is stressful on me even though it is ridiculous and shouldn't be. I know, I depend on him to balance me more than I should. Anyway, he's back! And I am sooo happy! A few hours later, we are going to get dinner and my phone rings. I let it go to voicemail. The same person sends a text "Jen CALL ME AS SOON AS YOU GET THIS MESSAGE. Thanks." That sounds like life or death to me, doesn't that sound life or death to you? I call back and the person says, "I have a friend in Dallas right now that just called me and told me she is really sick. Can I give her your number to come and get an adjustment?" So I give her permission. It was really considerate of her to call and make sure she could give out my number. The person calls and has caught a cold and flies back the next day. She flies back the next day! Really? Now I know that I said that I would help but A) this is not life or death B) she has all of the resources to go and get adjusted in a mere 12 hours. I head out at 10 o'clock at night to the person's hotel room and work on them for a while so they can get some sleep and drive back only missing about 2 hours of time that I could be spending with my husband who I have so dearly missed.<br /><br />The next day (Sunday), my phone rings and it is the spouse of a good friend who is out of town. I answer. "Hey Jen, sorry to call you like this but..." You know what is coming after that but. "I fell and my back is hurting pretty bad. Is there any way you can come work on me?" Sure! At least he is willing to drive to my office and wait until tomorrow (which is my day off).<br /><br />Last week and this week I am also covering for a fellow chiropractor. Possibly, it's the running between practices and stress of having to please her patients which all seem like new patients to me and are taking a lot longer than usual as well as seeing my normal peeps and bringing on a massage therapist into my practice this week is getting to me? I don't know. All I know is I'm cranky.<br /><br />I haven't been taking my supplements and I've been eating crap. Just crap. Processed foods and wheat. Crap. And now that's what I feel like. Now I have to go to work and tell people to take their supplements and eat healthy. Hello Pot, meet Kettle. Instead I just feel like Rhett Butler from <em>Gone With The Wind</em> "Frankly, my dear I don't give a" well, you know how it goes. Take this as a lesson to all to eat your veggies.Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-87297488406437158762009-08-25T23:05:00.000-07:002009-08-25T21:08:31.560-07:00The Best Things Sometimes Aren't In PicturesMichael is out of town this week and I guess him being gone makes me more grateful. Instead of sitting and missing him, I'm trying to sit and reflect on the joy in my life. I thought I would share some of my memories that I hold dear to my heart.<br /><br />-The way I felt when Michael saw me walking down the aisle to him.<br /><br />-Michael whispering "You are beautiful" when Dad handed me off to him. I've never felt more loved than at that moment.<br /><br />-The comfort of being surrounded by friends and family in celebration of us.<br /><br />-Michael and I singing at the top of our lungs with the top down on our convertible Sebring driving through Florida. (Even though the Sebring smelled because someone had obviously left the top down in the rain.)<br /><br />-The billboards in Nassau. They were public service ads against AIDS that said "PROTECT YA TING! WRAP IT UP TO PROTECT AGAINST AIDS." Michael is never going to forget that. Now any word that ends in "thing" is funny.<br /><br />-Waking up every morning to the freshness of the ocean.<br /><br />-Not getting any sleep the last night on the ship because of a high school graduation party next door. Were we that excited about graduating high school? I don't remember acting that way.<br /><br />-The moment I married Michael feeling like this was the first day to the rest of my life. Like we had everything in front of us and could take on the world. I like that my husband gives me that confidence.<br /><br />-Listening to Mike talk to Tillie and Deedee when he doesn't know I can hear him. Heaven help us if we ever have girls because Mike is a sucker for precious littles.<br /><br />-Realizing the graceful way that my parents are transforming into Gran and Poppa instead of Mom and Dad. It makes me want to transform back into a child and jump into their laps.<br /><br />For someone who has planned out every minute of their life up to this point (i.e. me), it's nice to finally be at a place when I can just sit back and breathe and watch life carry me through. Life is like the lazy river, and I'm smooth sailing.Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-42117193301234825762009-08-03T19:45:00.001-07:002009-08-03T19:48:57.269-07:00Dogs Need Backward Robes, TooMichael got one for Christmas and Tillie was pretty jealous.

A lot. You need to read <a href="http://www.naturalnews.com/026733_health_health_care_healthcare.html">Health Ranger</a> "What's Really in Obama's Health Care Reform," which he double checked from a posting from <a href="http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2300451/posts">freerepublic.com</a>. The healthcare bill itself is 1,017 pages long and I don't know about you, but I don't have the time or the legislative knowledge to sit down and decode that. The points that I reallllly don't like:<br /><br />1) The government will set doctor wages. (Gee thanks, because I already make so much as it is.)<br />2) Healthcare will be rationed. This includes emergency services, cancer treatment, you name it. (Chiropractic should be more important to you now to make sure you don't get sick!)<br />3) Any employer who wants to use private insurance will have a mandatory audit.<br />4) The government will decide what treatment and beneifts you receive (and guess what...there is no appeals process.)<br />5) All non-US citizens, illegal or not will get free health insurance.<br /><br />It goes on and on and on...how the taxes for employers making a certain payroll will be, how individuals who choose not to go under the plan will have to pay extra tax, how any illegal alien will not have to pay ANY taxes...it's just INSANE! How can anyone who reads that and understands it really vote to pass it? Surely it won't pass, right?Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-89618312212911633412009-07-14T16:34:00.000-07:002009-07-14T16:57:46.361-07:00Movin' On UpWe moved into our new apartment! It's in an ideal part of Dallas. We live right off of the Katy Trail and near way fun restaurants, cafes, custard stands, specialty shops...it's great! It's uplifting to see so many people out and about running on the trail and enjoying shopping.<br /><br />Moving is such a process. I'm not a fan. Although most of our things are unpacked, I have yet to find storage for it all! The apartment is open and spacious making closet space nonexistent.<br /><br />Deedee looooves the new apartment. She perches on a high step of the staircase and watches us or she sits in front of the glass door and watches for squirrels and such. Tillie seems to be a little restless in the new place. She barks every time the fridge makes noise or a door is shut in the complex. She doesn't do very well with the stairs, either. She has medially subluxated patellas (bad knees) and stairs are not ideal for her to climb up and down. Also, the staircase is open and the steps are spaced far apart so she gets scared and sometimes struggles. She's busted a few times and rolled down the stairs. However, she loves going for a walk in the neighborhood. There are a lot of other dog walkers and people around that she can say "Hi" to.<br /><br />I've had fun dreaming of how to decorate our new apartment! It was an interesting decision, but I decided not to paint the citrus orange walls. Yep, that's right, orange it is. I think the dark furniture we have compliments the brightness pretty well and Mike had an awesome poster that I framed that has a toned down orangey-brown mixed with other fun colors that will make good accents. We are currently saving for a new dining room table and bed. After we get that, I will finally feel like a real grown up with furniture and not feel like I live in a college dorm. LOL. Everyone should come visit us! :)Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575797004247446699.post-84900157629887270432009-06-22T22:18:00.001-07:002009-06-23T09:47:58.888-07:00More Wedding Pictures!Start at the bottom of the post.

We weren't too excited about hanging out with a bunch of bachelors, so we went to the sushi bar on the ship instead.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmHD16WqI/AAAAAAAAAiw/6GE2DPRiEqk/s1600-h/formal+night.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmHD16WqI/AAAAAAAAAiw/6GE2DPRiEqk/s400/formal+night.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347010929072167586" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The next morning, we awoke on the port of Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas. We had to be up and around pretty early because our dolphin experience began at 9:30. We walked off the ship onto a port where we met the rest of our tour group and loaded up on a boat that took us to the other side of the island. The dolphin swim was the most amazing experience I've ever had. By far, the best and most memorable part of our honeymoon! We were in the water with the dolphins for half of the day! They are so sweet and intelligent.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmszcNEnI/AAAAAAAAAjY/iAvQmSl4Mts/s1600-h/nassauferry.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmszcNEnI/AAAAAAAAAjY/iAvQmSl4Mts/s400/nassauferry.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347011577504404082" border="0" /></a><br />On the ferry to the dolphins.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmsQF65gI/AAAAAAAAAjQ/9QLa6LodLPo/s1600-h/nassau4.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmsQF65gI/AAAAAAAAAjQ/9QLa6LodLPo/s400/nassau4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347011568015697410" border="0" /></a><br />Passing some extravagant docks on our way to the dolphins.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmsK6RpbI/AAAAAAAAAjA/C3UVjC5bGVM/s1600-h/nassau3.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmsK6RpbI/AAAAAAAAAjA/C3UVjC5bGVM/s400/nassau3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347011566624679346" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmr7MaEWI/AAAAAAAAAi4/Xkb3fVKvzcI/s1600-h/nassau2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRmr7MaEWI/AAAAAAAAAi4/Xkb3fVKvzcI/s400/nassau2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347011562405761378" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I have the video of most of our interaction with the dolphins, but I can't find it since we started packing to move!

She was so smart, it was amazing! We were told she didn't like men and she wouldn't go near the other men in our group, but she loooooved her some Mike! She kept going back to him and swimming around him and when it was time to push us across the water, she practically threw Mike up in the air.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRf03xZ_jI/AAAAAAAAAhk/Wq5y6fLxlV4/s1600-h/dolphinphoto.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRf03xZ_jI/AAAAAAAAAhk/Wq5y6fLxlV4/s400/dolphinphoto.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347004019524632114" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRf0gouNPI/AAAAAAAAAhc/Fl1VIHG6Q3A/s1600-h/dolphin3photo.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRf0gouNPI/AAAAAAAAAhc/Fl1VIHG6Q3A/s400/dolphin3photo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347004013314192626" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRf0YWqlwI/AAAAAAAAAhU/2jJfSgDvS5I/s1600-h/dolphin2photo.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4C8IWwQz3LI/SjRf0YWqlwI/AAAAAAAAAhU/2jJfSgDvS5I/s400/dolphin2photo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347004011090974466" border="0" /></a><br />Aunty V gives sweet kisses but she smells like a big stinky fish! We fed her, made her dance (which was hilarious), watched her gargle the water with her blow hole and jabber her teeth to tell us she liked our fish we gave her and spit water at us when she didn't like us...it was amazing.Jennifer Gallagherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15476134735623624640noreply@blogger.com0
