You may or may not have realized it by now, but I love fruit. I crave it all the time, and we know, I don’t like to deny my cravings. It can get ugly. On average, I consume three to five servings of fruit a day. I have at least two servings with my morning smoothie…
Happy Is As Happy Does
Being happy isn’t easy. It doesn’t just happen, it doesn’t occur naturally and sadly there’s no special fairy dust (fairy dust would be pretty cool though). Happiness takes work, and it is 100% your choice whether you are happy. Personally, I think it’s easier to be miserable, whereas you really have to make an effort to find your happy groove, but the rewards are…
CSA Status Update
Beep. Beep. Beeeeeep. Pardon the interruption of your regularly scheduled broadcast. We interject to give you a brief CSA status update. Since I have self-diagnosed OCD tendencies (and obviously I’m qualified to make that decision), status updates are second only to list making and followed closely by strategic categorizing. Strategic categorizing is grouping or organizing by color, type, the alphabet, so…
The Monday Rundown: June 25, 2012 Edition
I’m baaaack. I have returned to the land of the living or at least the land of the gainfully employed, and it feels wonderful. I’m still waiting for the pressure in my ear to subside, but all things considered I’m doing pretty good. And ya wanna know why….. Not only did I go into the office today, but…
The Sister-in-Law Special
Hey Gang, thanks for listening to me rant last Friday. It was cathartic to let it all out, so I appreciate it. I’m feeling a little better, but definitely not up to my usual standards, and my right ear is still pretty jacked up. Why, oh why, won’t you pop?! It’s so swollen I can’t even get a Q-tip in…
No Words
There are no words. Yet, I’m the one who chose to start a blog, so I’ll try to find some. I AM FRUSTRATED ! (screamy yelling CAPS frustrated). But, I can’t actually scream because you need a voice to do that, and I sound like kermit the frog after a carton of cigarettes. I have been…
Down, But Most Definitely Not Out
I’m still down for the count, so there goes my whole two day sickness theory, but all hope is not lost. Truth be told, I think Sunday was just the initial sickness creeping in (I like to think my sick radar is very in-tune), while Monday was really the full-blown “I’m not gonna make it” kind…
Sometimes Shit Just Happens
I’ve been planning on doing a post about how since I switched to clean eating, just over a year or so ago, I hardly ever get sick. I’m pretty healthy and feel great 99% of the time. Not bad, right?! I’m telling you it’s a good way to live, and I attribute the majority of my healthiness to my…
Peanut Butter
I have a thing for peanut butter; always have, always will. There is something so delicious, rich, and satisfying about it. Whatever way you cut it, slice it, spread it, peanut butter is my thing. Unless it’s part of a recipe, I’m pretty much a peanut butter purist. I have never mixed it with jelly or made a sandwich out of it. Shocking,…
The Monday Rundown: June 11, 2012 Edition
Did I mention I took Monday off work? Hallelujah. Not that I don’t love my job, because I do, but I like long weekends better. My company’s vacation policy is “use it or lose it,” and for the past couple years, I lost it (think weeks of time). Not this year though. This year I…
