Actually, that title has nothing to do with this post…well, not much - but I was thinking a lot about my feminine sensibilities this weekend so….
The reason I was pondering how “girlie” I am is because of a little game I played whilst in the Lone Star State….a very “docile” version of football - touch football…I mean, how bad could it be, my opponents included my 8 year old son and my niece who weighs all of 60 lbs…maybe. Anyway, after injury #3 and after hearing my children beg me to stop “trying to play”, I sat - with ice on both knees thinking: What has happened to me? Have I always been so girlie…so un-butch!! There’s a video out there somewhere…maybe I’ll play it for you sometime - after my dignity has returned just enough to be destroyed once more…….
But, back to my real post….
So, I’m “detoxing” today - trying to recuperate from the 24 hours I spent in the car over the past 3 days……..and all the “fast food” that goes along with that amount of traveling.
My detox plan includes:
- lots of water (should be easiest…but hardest for me - I only like water when it has 3 or 4 shots of espresso in it!….I’m just sayin’)
- “Living Fuel” - yes, the dreaded living fuel (also called “living hell” in this house). Apparently, this stuff contains all the nutrients a person needs for a day….or even a few days - it even has things you can’t get anywhere else except for “mother’s milk”…..It also removes your appetite……the hard way!
Just kidding, it’s really not that bad……… - trying to eat “real” things.…just made a sandwich out of “Ezekiel Bread” (with sprouted/live grains), cut up avocado, beautiful organic tomato and some pickles….(high in sodium, but Hey, I’ve gone without my Starbucks so back off, Barbie!)
- organic green tea with agave nectar……if you haven’t tried this stuff (agave nectar) as a sugar substitute, you absolutely must!!!
So, that’s what I’m doing today…
…along with lots of laundry - oh, and I received another shipment of my beautiful ingredients for my new primarily organic/vegan skin care products for my business I hope to launch by August.
By the way, if you’re struggling with headaches - like maybe you’re in detox hell and you have been mercilessly deprived of your true love: deep, dark espresso blended with luscious cream and wonderful sugars and flavoring…topped with whipped cream and cinnamon shavings……….
where was I….oh yeah, if you’re struggling with headaches, try placing some peppermint essential oil on your pulse points at your wrists and below your ears…..breathe in deeply….
It won’t take them away, but does help to make things more bearable - plus, peppermint is supposed to increase cognitive functioning…or something like that….blah-de-blah-blah………..
Forgive me, I’m a little moody today….
…where’s my peppermint oil!!!???……ooh, now I just want a peppermint latte - you know, like you get at Christmas time…..ooh, Christmas time…..now I want…….CAKE!
But, I digress…
Have a lovely day - and if you see me out and about today, you may just want to walk a big circle around me…at least until my detox is accomplished…
…I’m just sayin’.
Now to go “Google” some kind of class where they can help me with my excessive “girlie-ness”….
Peace.
