welcome to the 70s!

 new project

im gonna go 1970s for the end of september! 2 weeks of 70s music, tv shows, movies, diet and workouts. made an instacart order that is ridiculously awful healthwise but it is what it is. many brands are still out there. i used #1 70s brands and flavors and some pop culture references. i may be dead in 2 wks or i may be mentally better bc of the decrease in social media use.

i have done a grocery haul which was pretty bad - some of it was ooooook but most part, no.

i have my book picked out, i have my workout picked out, i have my 1st movie picked out.

i was alive and do remember the 70s. im going to only listen to 70s music. which i kinda do already and only watch 70s tv shows. (i just finished 'severance' today so i won't be stuck on my 21st century binging show). im even in a bowling league, so thats great.

im curious to see if the reduction in nighttime internet and social media, meal planning (even tho its not healthy) and a change in type of exercise makes good changes. some things we have forgotten that should be re-introduced into human life.

glowing & green.....

so im trying Kimberly Snyder's glowing green smoothie again.  what made this time successful was this...

1) my new found love of 30 day challenges (*thank you, pinterest)
2) the 10 day beauty detox challenge on Kimberly Snyder's instagram/blog

I did all 10 days.  today is day 14.  yep....im still on it and challenge completed.  I am sort of 'addicted' to it now. 

every morning I literally cant wait to drink it.  at first my skin broke out, around day 4, day 5.  but into the 2nd week, my skin is clearer.  I also feel like my digestive system is working more efficiently.  and the taste is really really good, being that you only taste the fruit.

instagram showed many users doing the challenge under #beautydetoxchallenge and followed each day for so many users.  including myself.

I haven't gotten into the beauty detox diet yet as im happy just to start on veggies for the moment, but I see future Kimberly Snyder challenges in my future.   also, her blog has a host of assignments, etc that will help get you on the right track.

Safe haven

a waste of the hours I spent reading this book.  hoping the movie was better, I wasted 2 more hours.

don't waste your time.  heed my warning.

dumbest ending twist.  for real.

Corner of clean....

Of all the "cluttered" photos I've taken the last many months, this is one that actually got taken care of

The corner of the kitchen table.

Bills, keys, coupons, a calendar, to do lists, etc. It was all there. I had to just jump in.

Keys are still there but everything else gone. Coupons expired were thrown, coupons good were put in an envelope in the car for use, bills were piled into a file folder, envelopes recycled.

Little goals met make you feel progress. Small goals will make you more willing to complete them. :)

My heart is un-frozen...

I finally watched 'frozen'. I made a deal with my goddaughter. If she reads the Nancy drew books I bought her, I'll watch 'frozen'. I watched it in a plane.

It was very disney...the songs, the characters, the dashing prince, the funny little sidekick, the animal friend..

I loved it.  :) I probably wo t watch it again as I'm 38 years old but I really liked it.

Gone green.

I finally made Kimberly Snyder's glowing green smoothie. And I say finally because I've been trying to make it for about a year now.

And I drank it. And I made extra. Now..let's see how I feel. I'm going to also try to drink it daily.

It tastes good. It's easy to make. I think I can do this. :)

Cleaning your energy....

So in my ongoing quest to find purpose, balance and a normal life, this year will bring some new tasks for "project: secret".  Since "project: secret" crashed & burned last year, I'm going to approach it from another angle.

I have been very shallow with this project. I didn't use it to its full potential last year & it failed.  It hung in there but it failed, let's be honest.  So I revisited it, looked st it differently. Same project, same idea, different view.

Something I should've done & have wanted to do for some time is to clean the energy in my living space. Yeah, it sounds new age but really. It can't hurt & it may have do some psychic good.

And I need the psychic good. This includes cleaning clutter,"cleaning" stagnant energies in corners and making space so that you can concentrate, and direct your energy in other directions.
