    Yesterday I spent the whole day in the city finding housing. I also went to Trader Joe's and bought some medjool dates, raw almonds, and an insulated bag to tote my raw groceries in from henceforth, considering I spend half my life in a car.

    Last nite after work John took me to Applebees where I constructed a RAW SALAD of delicious, crisp greens, cherry tomatoes, avocados and oil/vinegar/salt dressing.

    And today, I've had my favorite banana/date/almond smoothie ...

    Hi all!

    Busy as usual…. Quick update…

    We have had some amazing reviews on the restaurant. Boston globe, twice this month. An almost full page review with pictures. So there has been a waiting list most nights. We are now thinking of opening in a few different areas.

    I’ve decided to move back to Laguna Beach since we just keep going back and forth anyway. So we’ll be bi-coastal but mostly in Cal. We’re moving June 1st.

    GGGRRRRRR! I swear I will come back here and erase this post just as soon as my blood stops boiling.

    I just feel so frustrated that I have to be a SAHM after TEN YEARS. I am so friggin' bored I could cry. I am not viewed as much more than a maid and cook. I am so effin' tired of picking up after this big family. I'm tired of doing nothing but meeting their needs over and over and over and over and over and over. We never have $ or time to do what *I* want to do. There is no babysitter ...

    I've recovered with a sense of brilliance in my heart. Eating raw, feeling simple. I saw many dear friends yesterday and later ran into one who was also very close to the boys. I told her about my experience the other day. As a Vietnamese, she just stared at me lovingly when I told her I began to sit zazen again a few weeks ago (that's right, Tiggerbounce!).

    I'm actually looking forward to work tonight, which is unlike last week when I was so depressed I just canceled my rickshaw ...

    I am going to See Narnia going to Niagara and Buffalo for fun and going to sell more of my cards if the rain will not stop me:)
    I feel great - do things for myself ( it feels kinda "guilty" as i always put myself last) but started to enjoy the process. Nothing extravagant - pedi, sauna, massage, aromatherapy, movies inspiring and positive, rest, literature, poetry and people i enjoy seeing!!!
    For me it is a luxury! So i am going to indulge in it!
