On a Wednesday...

I seem to get so much more done at work on the days I am alone in the office. I still piddle around on the internet googling for information and ideas. But I am more efficient also. I don't know why this is. You would think when the 'boss' is around I would keep my nose down and work work work. However, in my situation, my 'boss' has been my friend for many years, and at one point I trained her to take my position when I was promoted at another office that we had together. So we don't really work like normal people, we just get along and get it done.

The last two days I have been solo at work. I have gotten all of my paperwork caught up, everything entered, posted, stamped, filed, etc... I have paid bills (both work related and personal), googled how to increase my attraction to my husband, shopped online for cameras, read my favorite blogs, came up with 7 craft ideas, read the history of Taos, NM, re-read the course catalogs for 2 nearby colleges (only to re-decide to not go for yet another semester), updated my facebook, ordered tanning lotion, made an appointment with a cardiologist, sent numerous emails to random long lost friends, and made a ransom note for a friends mechanical pencil that I am holding hostage. These things among many others are all things that have improved me or opened my mind to other ideas.

The odd thing is that much of the work I caught myself up on was all the easy stuff that I let slide by me for a couple of days. Why do I push the easy stuff aside, only to let it build up and become not so easy? Sigh.

I forgot my camera today, so not many new pictures to post. I do have one though. An update on going green: hair edition.

This is after an ACV only rinse, and a dab of homemade gel before bed last night. After I woke up I worked it a little to soften the crunch. By 3pm it looked this good! Hooray!







Well friend, that is it for now. I will post more tomorrow. I have food pictures to show you! Yum yum.

Running again, and doing all the things.

The clouds have parted, the sun is shining, and this curly girl is alive again. A very dark winter took me away from many of the things I loved, including blogging. As I mentioned in a past post, I went through a divorce in 2014. It wasn't a terrible divorce, or a lengthy, angry divorce. It was however a lengthy separation; 2+ years. When the final court date arrived, and the papers were signed, I felt a huge weight lifted off of me. I've taken some time since then to adjust to the thought of no longer bearing the label of 'wife' or 'partner' or 'companion'. I started that adjustment when the separation started in 2012, but it became real when the divorce was filed. Once it was final, the idea fit better, like pair of running shoes after a few miles. :)  You just have to wear it a bit in order for it to become part of you. Although my identity is not defined by my relationship labels, it is something we wear, and therefore should take time to be comfor...

That lost feeling, it must be Monday.

I feel a little lost today. Do you ever wake up and just feel...lost? Did I sleep last night? Did I imagine that conversation? Was it a dream, or a memory? Am I tired or not? I woke up shaking in the night, and I don't know why. I was too out of it to even try to understand. I feel like I didn't sleep, but I'm not exhausted. I could swear I had a conversation, or rather, a conversation was had with me, but I'm not certain. I really don't like these types of days. My mind begins to dwell on things that may not have occurred, and I get all out of sorts. I need some time on my yoga mat I think. To get my brain on the right track though, I had a green monster shake and some caramel macchiato almonds. That'll do the trick! __________________________________________________________________________ I had a long/short weekend. It was a bit stressful, and a relief at the same time. It's now created new peace, and new nerves. I'll tell you all about it o...

What's the future Wednesday, just give me cherries and tell me I'm pretty, and stuffs

Deep conversations with friends about the future Why do I do this to myself? I really think God puts this stuff on my heart so often because He is trying to get my attention. Why mine? I have no idea, and sometimes, I don't want to find out. How scary (and amazing, and scary) to think that He would want MY attention for anything. Gives me the bleeps, the sweeps, and the creeps. What do I do when I'm confused after talking to God for an hour? Consult my friend that is struggling to understand His plan too! God probably loves those conversations. I really mean that. I know He loves to see us talking about pleasing Him. But....we aren't so good at it. The good news is, He already knows that. It doesn't make it ok to just put Him on the back burner when we are unsure of our next move, but it does make it ok that we are imperfect. Whew! Recently we have been discussing where and upon what we should place our life focus. We, as humans, like to make plans for our futur...
