Day 2

I am not hungry.  In fact, it feels like I do nothing but chop vegetables and slice apples in the morning and spend the rest of the day noshing on them.

That's not entirely true since I did do a two hour yoga class this morning and I went to a book discussion this afternoon.  And while I am not hungry at all, that doesn't mean I don't think about a cookie or a piece of chocolate.

And then there is the "cleansing" action that is kicking in.  But that may be TMI.

  2. I had lunch out today and now I have a stomach ache. I think I prefer my usual yogurt, almonds and apple.
    Thanks for keeping us updated on your new eating mode and "cleansing". I hope it really does help you to feel better.

  3. Hah! The cleansing action. I am most impressed with 2 hour yoga class. God Love ya! My yoga class moved across town so I don't have a senior yoga anymore. Bums me out. I tried doing yoga with the 20 somethings and thought I'd die. Boy are they bendy!

  4. Margaret--I am in Venice, Florida. Pretty much everything here caters to retired people. I avoid any yoga that has "flow" attached because it moves faster than I want to when doing yoga.

  8. I call diets a form of self torture. lol I like to make my changes gradually because I am more apt to keep the changes when I slowly add them. My sister put me on a whole foods diet for two weeks once that was a very gassy experience. Good luck with your new diet.

  9. Good luck with the diet. The older I get the more I prefer veg and fruit to meat and potatoes. But I'm with you on the cheese, bread, and chocolate.

 On September 29, I had the closing on my condo. Everything that was not going to the buyers was out and packed in the ABF moving truck which had by the been taken over to the storage units. Don thought it would take him until Wednesday to finish packing the truck with the help of his son. It took him until late Thursday with Chris' help and mine. Kevin was supposed to help load as well but he was in a mountain bike accident and wrecked his shoulder the week before. That added driving him to doctor appointments to my to do list and dong some shopping for him plus jobs around the house that might need two functioning upper limbs.  We stayed with Kevin on Friday night after the closing and then had a suite in an extended stay place for the coming week. This was the worst possible time to have to get a room because the prices balloon during leaf peeping season if you can even find a room at all. But it was close to the storage units where we were working and it was dog friendly. We ju

Wedding

 Don and I drove to South Carolina to attend the wedding of my step-grandson, Will. Will Will and Katie The wedding took place on Dataw Island, a beautiful outdoor ceremony followed by a reception in the country club. We stayed in a tiny cottage in the historic center of Beaufort, rented from Vrbo. Since the wedding was at 5 p.m., we had time to explore the area a bit. I really like the low country scenery and historical charm. Sitting quietly in the curtained gazebo I was visited by multiple cardinals. They came to visit the feeder, not me, but I can always pretend! How I will always remember Will!

Rest In Peace

 In a summer that has been so wet, Sunday was a reprieve. The humidity dropped and the sun came out. It was a day that could have been special ordered by the family of a friend's husband. It was the day they had arranged his celebration of life ceremony set on the shore of Lake Champlain. I was not looking forward to the gathering, even couched as a celebration. This is a family fraught with relationship tensions. It turned out to be a beautiful day and a beautiful ceremony. A Catholic priest gave a brief but meaningful homily and two Air Force members played "Taps" and presented the American flag to my friend. I am not a Christian, but I do know about Christ Consciousness. That priest's word's filled me with such a sense of peace and love. I hope it did the same for the family members and neighbors who attended.
