Seriously, I hate my blog

For the love of Pete!~ I really think my blog is not so great. I mean, does anyone really read it? Can I write? I know I can write, but do I write well? Hmmmm...

I haven't honed my writing skills since college & quite frankly there just hasn't been too much inspiring me lately. I mean, things are going well in my life & I am finally on my way to the Best Jen I can be, but hmpf.

Although I did have to let my rage monkey out earlier & it will have to continue into the weekend until I have a meeting with my crazy ass in-laws. I don't mean crazy as in fun, I mean crazy as in dysfunctional abusive whack job kind of crazy. Who knows, maybe after this weekend they'll accidentally fall off a cliff or something. Ok, that was harsh, but maybe I won't have to get that restraining order after all. Enough about them - too toxic!

My only hope in life is that I get a bonafide movie star to follow me on Twitter. One of my friends has Ashton Kutcher following her!!! How cool is that? But then I am like, damn, my twitter posts aren't enlightening or witty enough. Damn damn!

Ok-I truly am just rambling...I hope everyone is well!!!

Peace out!

Even though I haven't, I feel like I've lost 20 pounds

Strange but true. Kind of like I try to toast things in the toaster oven without plugging it in. You know, like every day things that are strange but true. Or maybe in my case that was just sad but true - lol!!!

So I had a good session with my happy head person. Now like I've sad before, she's not a typical shrink. It's more than that!!! Good thing for me & my pocket book is that I only have to see her once a month. Ok, anyway, yesterday I had this 1.5 hour intense session with her & by the time I got home, I had felt lke (forgive me for some expletives right now, but the 'i' key keeps sticking on my #$%@!%@# keyboard so if u see a word wthout an i, that's why!!!) i had just gotten a massage. I was exhausted, but in a good kind of way. I had a huge emotional release & am figurng out the thngs that I need to do to make me tick in a good way. Of course she told me I had to learn how to cook & uh I was like 'really? cuz i really don't cook & the kitchen is a very dangerous place for me to be!!'

Ugh, enough about me. Blogging - blah blah blah blah. lol! Just a bit hystercal right now because i have to go the grocery store whch is the number one place i hate to go. Damn. Damn. Damn. Can't they just deliver the groceres to me? Stupid grocery store. I mean, in love & light grocery store who provides bounties of god given food so that i may attempt to cook something.

Well, i hope all is well n your life!!!

Hugs & Peace!

I think I can I think I can

Ok first of all, something really strange is going on with my keyboard. The vowels on my keyboard are being wonky. First the E key stuck & is working fine, then the A key did the same, & now I is doing it. I wonder if it's like Ghost whisperer & going to spell something like 'Hey hussie, here are the numbers for the lottery.' That would be really cool & then I'd know I was being haunted by a psychic ghost.

Anyway, so my dear friend Tex (I know, I talk about her a lot!! But I really love her dearly) let me know about Marilu Henner's Total Health Makeover. I am trying that on for size because I figure what do I have to lose? I have been very hard on myself for the past oh 34 years of my life & it's time to give myself a break. So the reason for my title is that I have one hell of a headache that makes me want to go play in traffic because I figure that would hurt a lot less. Damn! How many chemicals could I possibly have in my body? The proof is in the organic pudding I guess.

I am supposed to give up all harmful chemicals - for me that translates into processed food. I don't drink & don't smoke. Then I suppose dairy, which is easy for me because I am horribly lactose intolerant. Then sugar - the devil reincarnate (aside from my evil cat). Meat is something that I am definitely weaning myself off of.

There are some really exciting things happening in the next couple of days. Once they come to fruition, I will post & let you know what!!! I don't want to jinx anything. Rawr!

Ok-leaving this post with lots of love & good positive energy.

So Not a Fan...

So I have decided that I am not a fan of my blog. Remember in the very beginning I had said I hate blogging? I am pretty sure it still stands true!!! With that being said, I may take this one down & then build another one back up. One that really reflects who I am :)

What's been up lately? The weather has been ok. Finally have a bit of cool weather that is conducive to being outside & running around. We have been letting the kiddos - i.e. the cats & dog - run around outside on their own. Our backyard is a fair size & for indoor cats it's like the Red Tree Forrest. My middle cat is evil. So evil. There was this beautiful butterfly that was floating around the backyard & the bitch totally went up to it & shredded its wings. WTF? Evil cat!! My beautiful little calico Bella, just watched the butterflies flutter by. Netflix, aka the Evil Beotch, can't stop hunting. Today my hubby took a half day & I was about to take a nap when I glanced out the window & Evil Beotch had a lizard in her mouth. Husband to the rescue! lol!!!

Sigh...sad to say, that is ALL that is going on in my life. I am realigning myself in mind, body & spirit & it's kind of slow. But again, I am ok with that.

OH! Something exciting, I totally got a library card this weekend. Hahahahaha! I know-totally dorky. I had no idea how to look for a book. How sad is that? I had to ask for help. But I got the book I wanted & all is well with the world.

Anyway, I'll post when & if I get to a new blog.

Peace Out Peops!

Going Vegetarian

Ok, so I tried the Raw Foods thing & failed miserably. Or let me rephrase more positively, it wasn't my thing! I can however, choose to make better choices for myself. I have been reading horrible things about ground beef & also the cruelty that goes into slaughterhouses. I know, I know. Some people are going to think I am a tree hugger hippie & maybe I am. But more than anything, at least I will be a healthy tree hugger hippie.

My goal for this week is to not consume any animal flesh or dairy. Dairy is easy for me to give up because Homeslice is horribly lactose intolerant. I mean it ain't pretty when dairy enters this body!!! Meat isn't so hard either to give up, but I am kind of lost as to what I should eat. I am stalking my vegetarian friends as we speak & some have been helpful & others just downright silly :) That's ok-I know for a fact this is going to be a process. I am ok with that. Getting away from processed foods is kind of hard too because they are everywhere among us like an alien invasion. I am also being drawn towards eating seasonally & locally. That is going to be hard mainly because farmer's markets are only on weekends (usually) and i have no idea what is locally grown here in Texas. I guess I am going to have to stalk farmer's market websites too. I may have to make a trip into town twice a week. Which in the big picture isn't so bad since I'll be investing in my health.

I finally got my exercises I need to do to get my body back into alignment. All I can say is that I have my work cut out for me. I am ok with that too. Well, if anyone has any advice on veggie meals or places I can stalk for info, please leave a comment!!!

Peace & Love!!!

Back to the Old Title

I think I am going to change my blog back to Totally in the Raw. It will mean that I am just writing from the heart & keeping it raw & real ;)

Also-I wanted to say that the Universe is a kind place. I desperately wanted to get into this nutrition program & I was feeling a sense of urgency (it starts Monday) which was making me anxious. So I consulted Tex and she said I needed to talk to her psychic. I was kind of freaked out about this because from what Tex has said, the psychic will rock my world. So I tentatively put in for a call back & waited like a kid the night before Christmas & well...nothing. I was bummed because I was looking for any way to give me a sign. Even Tex saw my tweet & pulled over so she could consult her laptop & to her dismay saw that the psychic was away. Love Tex so much!!!! She called me & made sure everything was ok. I was still sad as I knew that time was running out...I get off the phone with Tex & not 20 minutes later did the Ultimate Happy Head person call me :) I totally stole Happy Head person from Tex.

Even though we didn't have a consultation today, she just happened to call when I felt the most bewildered. It turns out that she is not only a therapist (she's actually more than this, but it's too much for me to remember to type), she is a psychic! The universe must have said it wasn't time for me to spend time with first psychic, but all in one happy head person instead. We talked for a bit & I have my first phone consultation. Tex has told me this lady will help me change my life. I look forward to a newer & happier life. The coolest thing yet, is she told me I would only need 3-6 sessions-That is How Good she is supposed to be!!!

I felt really at peace when I talked to HHP. Then my brother called & we had a long talk about monter in law & in laws in general. He helped me to gain a better perspective on how to handle & act, etc. I guess sometimes you just need to talk to someone else. My brother is the coolest of big brothers & I have always sought out his advice. I never thought about seeking advice for my own family stuff. Just an overall great day!!!! Things are happening & happening in a great way.

I really look forward to the next couple of months & what is to come. No pressure about weight or anything. My trainer is the coolest too!! had a quick chat with her. She said no kickboxing either!!! can u imagine?

Well-have a fantabulous day peops!!

Peace!
