Messy Me
Good cloudy morning to ya!!!
I have my cat on my lap, my ottoman pulled to my desk to put me feet up, my coffee next to me, and a hopeful outlook to the day.
Maggie has her tail slapping the ottoman and keeps staring at me as if to say, "PET ME!"
I really wanted that cool front to come through and give us cool air, but it doesn't seem to want to cooperate. Darn.
So...yesterday I looked online and read up on how to grow sprouts.
I had two available jars and some screen, so I gave it a try. I'll post pictures and blog about it if I'm successful. What a cool idea! The only problem I'm having with all these plants and cool things I'm making, is that my house is looking a bit of a mess. I know now why my Omie's kitchen always had cluttered counter space and food on the stove. I have 4 containers on top of the pantry, with tea in them. I have beans in jars tilted in a bowl with a towel over it, on the kitchen counter by the tv. I have little water glasses sprouting celery and pineapple ends sitting in the window on the kitchen sink. It's a mess of experiments. The front porch has a table of experiments, and the back porch has a few also. My craft area is a mess of mending and projects and my garden has all kinds of strange containers full of stuff. It all fascinates me to learn what works in growing food, but it's a mess to look at. I have animals everywhere and want chickens. What am I thinking?
I need 4 heads and 7 bodies to do everything I want to do.
Wouldn't that be a site?
I've been on my walker machine every day for two weeks. I get my 10,000 steps a day and try to fit in all my healthy food, supplements, and water. By the end of the day my tummy looks 4 months pregnant with all the water and stuff I drink. I haven't lost one pound. Darnit.
I wake up in the morning and everything hurts. But I'm determined.
I keep hearing about more and more people with auto immune or cancer.
It breaks my heart. We have such limited information and treatment for these diseases.
All we can do is do our best. We have to become our own doctors in a lot of ways. Our doctors can't come home with us and make our food and tell us what to eat and drink, they can only give us medication and treatment that they have information about. We then have to go home and take care of our bodies so our bodies heal during and after treatments.
There is so much conflicting info out there about food. One group of doctors says eat low fat, while the other says you need fat. One says eat high protein and the other says eat a carb diet of fruit and veggies.
One says take supplements, and the other says don't, just eat the food. One says eat eggs or dairy and the other says stay away. It's so confusing!
I've changed 90% of my products to natural ingredients. I take quite a few supplements and have had them really help. I eat very healthy and quite a lot of it is organic. I no longer wear clothing that is tight so my lymphatic system can move and clean itself out. I move so my lymphatic fluid can move.
I put great effort into keeping myself from stressing and rest for at least an hour a day with no distraction.
If anyone has any other ideas..... I am open for suggestions. I love to learn.
But I don't want to go on a powder program.
Natural is best for me.
I guess I should get to my chores. Blah! I don't like chores. It's like the movie groundhog day.
Every day is the same thing. But....I'm blessed all the same. At least I have a home to clean.
