Day 31, stage 1

I think I need to preface this with, by stage one I mean 99% of our diet is soup. We are eating oils and ferments though also. We are not adding in avocados, eggs or anything else. I have to wonder at our experience and wonder if we go through all the stages and then go right back to stage one, if this would keep happening? If we would continue to have die off and such. Interesting notion. We are eating soup from the night before. I will be starting a roast, it will be made into soup though. I am also broiling up more of the "soup bones". Really these are not soup bones, they are mostly meat. Though it is all gelatin meat. So they do make great soup bones. Still we get a lot of meat out of them also. We started some yogurt last night to check it out. It won't be ready until tomorrow though. We used heavy cream and half and half. Again fat. Key word, fat. Gwendy was having some serious issues as soon as she woke up this morning. She gets like this sometimes, just tries to hit and be in the way make annoying noises. Being destructive and disruptive. Makes homeschooling hard. We have a decent amount to catch up on because no one could really focus yesterday. I caught Gwendy smiling at one point and made her laugh and so far she seems to be in a better mood. I kinda get the hard time with school yesterday. We see it a lot after conferences. I am more hopeful for today. Though I am not sure if I should be. Okay, maybe I am not more hopeful for today. Yeah, kids crazy today. Too much energy. I still feel like crap. Jack feels crappy. I was really excited about our yogurt, it seemed really solid. It was whey on the bottom. But that is okay. Maybe I will do some whey fermenting. I have never done that before, so it might be interesting. Jack is making himself some kind of yogurt drink. I did have a 1/2 cup of fat again, lightly sweetened. It is funny to see how we are all doing on stage one again. Part of me doesn't want to go off. I actually feel like vomiting. So after I wrote that I felt like vomiting, I went and took a hot shower and went to bed. I feel slightly better this morning. I didn't actually vomit. But damn I felt bad. I slept hard though. I usually wake up a few times a night. I didn't wake up until almost 5. Of course then I couldn't fall back asleep. I did ache almost all night. Wasn't fun. So again, another day not complete.
