Sick (again?!) Current mood: sleepy
Well, I'm sick again (hence the title). What is with this? Ok...I work around kids all the time, and people have been sick lately. But why is my body so accepting to these viruses? My immune system is down. Why? As my chiropractor would say... "You haven't been eating well for the past couple months have you?!" My answer: "NO". So I deserve a kick in the rear. I KNOW that my body suffers when my food intake isn't balanced. I've been eating carbs and sugar mostly. The odd healthy thing, but when it came down to it, I would choose the carb or fatty or unhealthy thing over vegetables or things like that. Now I know most of us are like that, but I have experienced what it feels like to be healthy! It's great. The problem is, you have a little bit of junk and you think "oh...that wasn't bad", then before you know it you're tossed into a never ending snowball effect! Well, luckily, I live with a family that is willing to help me out. Deirdre came home yesterday with all sorts of yummy food that I can eat that's better for me. Wheat is a huge thing...it's addictive! So she brought me some rice pasta and some spelt and kamut buns...veggie burgers, soy yogurt...anyhow...I'm gonna try again because I can't stand being sick so often. I'm at home from work today hoping that a day of rest will do me good.
Stay sane...eat well

I'm a mom...who knew?! Current mood: tired Category: Life
Well...I think that today was the first day since I've lived here that I felt more like a mom than a "nanny". I started off the day by driving Fynn and his friend Femke to school...then driving myself to the chiropractor (without Kai for a change) I get this feeling I should check my cell, and low and behold I had missed about 10 calls from Deirdre. She was stuck on the side of the road (car broke down) and needed me to come pick her up. Then after turning around, picking her up and driving her to her mom's house I made it to my appointment with just enough time to drive home so Billy could leave for work. Kai and I baked Double Chocolate cookies (vegan of course), and made a book. But the point of this whole blog really? The fact that I could give out consequences and hold them as well as being able to talk about why I was choosing that and what decisions they could make in order to avoid that next time. Yikes my legs are totally full of pins and needles from sitting on them while rubbing backs for bedtime!!!!! Guess I'm getting prepared for the day (probably far far away) that I have my own little ones. I still have to clean the kitchen, prepare snacks/lunches for tomorrow and work on my monologue, plus prepare for 2 auditions...WOW...chat with yall soon:)

Dating Current mood: tired Category: Romance and Relationships
Okay. So I'm not really used to this whole dating thing. Every boyfriend I've had (few), I've been friends with and then in a relationship.
Let me preface what I'm about to say with the fact that I haven't been in a relationship or gone on a date in 3 years. And before that, 2 years.
So...there's this guy that comes into the coffee shop 2-3 times a day. Nice guy. Cute. Never thought I could date him, but after a while he sort of grew on me. I didn't really know anything about him except what my colleagues and boss had to say about him. After chickening out once, I finally worked up the nerve to give him my phone number (yes I know....that's a whole other story!). Long story short he called, and we went out last night.
Now since my faith has become more a part of my life, I haven't really dated so I didn't really know what to expect. I didn't think it could hurt going out with a guy just to test the waters...well it didn't hurt but it made me realize why it is that people of the same faith generally choose to date each other rather than going out with just anyone.
First thing I noticed (all of the following were little red flags) was the swearing. F this and Fing whatever...a little much for me. Number 2: talking about his past sex life (YIKES), including a story that involved a sex toy party! Number 3: saying "whoever decided that spanking was a bad idea is an idiot" (I'll blog one day about my thoughts on that).
Overall...we did have a good time chatting. But that's it. No desire to kiss him or go on another date. Did I mention he's bald? I'm sorry that seems really shallow of me, but it's not that I thought he was UGLY because of it, I just seem to be attracted to men with hair. I'm a hair girl: face, head, chest...now I do have limits...Robin Williams would be a little much!
It sounds like I'm really talking down about him. I can tell he's a really nice guy. Just not on the same page as I am.
Well, my leap into dating had a not so great start, but... A for effort!

I Remember Current mood: exhausted Category: Life
So I remember now why it is definitely not a great idea to drink more than a couple of drinks in one night. Did I have fun? Yes. Did I make a fool of myself? Yes. Did I only get 3 1/2 hours of sleep? Yes. Do I feel pretty shitty right now? Yes. Overall...not worth it. It's fun to have a couple of drinks, but when your inhibitions are lowered that much...it's a scary thing. You could do anything. Haven't had that much to drink in 5 years. That's a long time.
