Day Ten-Nowhere

I didn't go anywhere today. For two reasons: 1. the muscles running behind my shins were still very sore and 2. there was an incident about a mile or so away from my house where some inmates working outside near a highway overpowered a guard and escaped. They caught one apparently, and the other is on the loose. And coincidentally, there was NO information found online about this situation, especially since there are school buses and children being dropped off left and right in this area! Shoot, I found out through a phone call from mom dukes cause her co-worker got the word from her husband. I only left the house to pick up my daughter from the bus, b.u.t my NJ/NY roots run thick; I never leave the house unprepared. Dude would've met his maker if he ran up on me that's for sure!!

Anyway, I'm starting to get reeeeaaaallllyyyyyyy tired of this juicing routine. Like I said earlier I'm really not one for monotony. I may alternate days of feasting and 100% raw food consumption. My digestion shouldn't take too big a hit since I won't be consuming nuts and avocados. There's nothing like just digging into an organic orange and be on my way.

Did I mention the other day I bought some persimmons at the grocery store? I have to do some research on them; the sticker on the bottom says to eat them like an apple, and they are sure as hell hard as one...b.u.t I need to figure out more about them before I start pairing them with other fruits and stuff.

I've started crochet'ing again...it's such fun. :)

Days Five and Six-Clarity


I had all the intention in the world of writing yesterday, b.u.t was hit with an epiphany so hard, that it completely consumed the rest of my day. That's a good thing. :) Sometimes we realize our calling in life and want to manifest it into reality, however obstacles such as the shitty ECONOMY make it difficult and even for some like me, almost impossible. If it were just me and fending for myself and say a couple of fish, then it would be more of an attainable goal, b.u.t as a mother that sacrifice always has to benefit the needs of your babies over your wants...

I love art....love visual art. I've never had any classes and can't draw still life to save my own, however I've found my own style of design and want to create wearable art that is lacking in the market. A few years ago I sold prints, which I will most likely do again, b.u.t I want to be out in public in the streets of Brooklyn and see my designs on the People. I want to awaken the 85% of the population who still consider liquor, chicken wings and other 'lower vibration' ways and actions a part of their daily routine.

On the evening of Day Four and yesterday I've written out a plan to get that started, and even designs had started flooding into my mind. It was what I have been needing to do. My mind would always overflow with words, visions and conversations constantly (I'm a Gemini), that I could never clear it out for even just a second. It's exhausting...
After my blog post on Day Four I did make it to the grocery store and purchased lots of organic oranges, plums, pears, celery, berries and even found some organic mint. I'm going to try a watermelon/raspberry/mint combo for lunch. This morning, probably just my usual green smoothie blend b.u.t with arugula this time. I wonder how that tastes.... ::elevation::

Evening incident

So I'm sitting bed on the laptop hooking up my Vodpod account, and all of a sudden I was struck with this charlie-horse type pain in my lower right abdomen area...not sure what brought it on, b.u.t needless to say it laid me out for a good 30 seconds. After it subsided and slowly disappeared I felt fine...b.u.t now I'm thinking, 'I really need to get that hemp oil/coconut oil...just in case'. I won't be able to get it until Thursday, b.u.t I know that will be a crucial supplement. I do need some form of fat in my system.

Tonight's juice is cantaloupe and spinach. I definitely wanted to juice it before it went bad. Most of my fruit is on the kitchen table, and will not last too much longer. I'm up to 96 oz. right now a day. Tomorrow I'm going to strive to get the full 128 oz. I also know I need to juice more celery. I don't think I had any today *tsk tsk*

Time to crochet. :)
