    no it's not a hankering for reruns of the Nick Kamen advert ...

    The washing machine broke about three days ago and the two blokes who share the house with me didn't seem so interested in fixing it. They also didn't seem that interested in calling the landlord and getting him to fix it and nobody wanted to pay to get a repair done.

    So ...

    Fed up with not having any clean clothes and facing the thought of the lauderette on a busy Saturday morning ... ...

  2. far out day!

    This fasting detox thing is getting more pronounced. One minute I feel blissful, the next I feel completely drained.

    I took dd on a AMAZING walk this morning. We took this wide trail called sanderson falls rd and ended up finding this 150 ft waterfall! It's was amazing. Like, God threw a surprise party for us right there in the woods. DD ate her lunch on a rock near the bottom of the waterfall and I stretched out on a rock on the sun. I woke up being able to breathe much more clearly ...

  3. Day 5

    Day 4 complete without any major issues.

    I'm so happy!!!!!

    Today might be a little bit harder though. I hurt for one. I feel like my body is having a giant growing pain or charlie horse depending on what you call it. My left arm is even worse. Which sux b/c my job has me off the phones today and responding to member emails. So I need this arm today!
    I've never had the flu before so I'm assuming this is what your body feels like when you have it.

  4. Overwhelmed.

    Today my mom thanked me.

    She thanked me for making that step and sharing it with her. How her life has changed for the better too.

    Then she did something quite unexpected.
    She thanked me for all the people I will share with in the future for changing their lives. I have tears in my eyes right ...

  5. Oct 5

    Aunt flo has come today. I went raw just after my last period and have been mostly all raw until now so it will be interesting to see how it goes.

    Last time I did high raw for about 2 weeks before my period and it only lasted 3 days without need of painillers.

    Normally I have to take painkillers and it lasts 5 days with a pretty heavy flow and discomfort on the first 2 days.

    I got mild cramps right now, let's hope they remain mild.
