its really nice to feel healthy, al free and other healthy things seem to go together as healing practises, for me detox diets andd yoga etc have become my replacement obsessive behaviours.

I had taco chips for lunch. Unhealthy day for me!

"I realize that I am feeling overwhelmed with life and all of the demands on me right now. Sometimes it is daunting and I feel like I cannot handle it all. It is the feeling I used to have every day when I drank...that I just couldn't cope with life...like an ongoing low level panic attack. " That's EXACTLY how I felt yesterday. I was paralyzed. With fear. Overwhelmed.

One - is there something you could cut out of the schedule? Something you could ask someone else to do, at least for a week or so?

Two - Are you back into your exercise routine? Maybe that would help...

UNI - welcome home!

Mo glad you are feeling good.

My September 16 resolution: book a massage for next week! Just one hour! I must do this for myself.

Bye for now,
T.

Ohh Gaia. A massage once a week. How I wish I could have that. Ideally a foot one. I am in 7th heaven.
lvt25. Cheetos..are they potato chips? Or chrisps as we call them in the UK.
Raven joy .what detox diet would you recommend? I am just drinking liquids at the moment and eating fruits and vegetables.

Hi

Just wanted to say hi and I'm OK per Greenie. I slipped sort of on purpose last week but have not felt well so am back on the program. Two days now and this time I plan to make it stick!
I feel so much better when not drinking:
1. Less depressed
2. More energy
3. Less guilt
4. Get more things done
5. Keeping my liver healthy.

Love,
Auntie

Rebirth, I normally eat in a pretty healthy manner but I am being proactive. I haven't had to look for a job in....... and it pretty much freaks me out. Given the fact that my mojo hasn't been solid, I'm nipping loose ends that could possibly trip me up. Like being careful with the HALT idea and avoiding any triggers I can control.

Big hello to Fabbie Abbies far and wide. Sounds like Uni has great mojo but not so great health right now and M3 has great health and not so great mojo right now. I hope you guys can maybe share! I think ripping the heads off of nekkid barbies (or kens, or both)would be a perfect way to let off some steam. :H:H

I have enjoyed reading each and every post. You guys always make me smile no matter where the mojo radar is pointed. (MoDar? MoJar?) (M3, seriously I hope you find your mojo soon. Still change of season blues a bit????)

Lav - maybe we should add okra to the ubre sekret Sweet Potato Garlic Jam recipe????

Auntie, welcome back. Dust off those britches and revise your plan.

Busy week but taking it one thing at a time. Did voluteer work at the family center today. Went through the handbook and introductory materials with some newcomers. Most of the guests are women, most of them with children. They do not allow boyfriends, fiances, brothers, friends (men) etc. but DO allow married couples. There is a married couple with one child there now. I feel sort of sorry for that guy - he is surrounded by far more estrogen, and far less silicone than Hugh Heffner.

Tomorrow will be nutty as well. I'll be doing a Mary Kay presentation at leads group (still not done prepping for that!). Then Tough Chicks AA. Then lunch, change, errands and Curves. At 4PM I check in for a program called "Box City." It's to raise awareness about the plight of the homeless. I will be spending the night outdoors in a box. That is, if I have time to rustle up a box which I have not done yet. As it goes in the real world, I am responsible to find my own. Otherwise it's under the stars. Or rain. I hope and pray for no rain! Please join me! I'm sure it will be a long sleepless night. We wrap it up at 7AM on Saturday and I'm guessing my own bed will feel like heaven on Saturday night.

One thing is for sure....

Good for you DG!! I think volunteer work is wonderful for the soul! And this one sounds like a biggie. WE are so spoiled, you know, and it's easy to take so much for granted and judge those less fortunate than us.

Rebirth--Cheetos are not made from potatoes. I'm not sure what they are made of. A bunch of artificial ingredients and coated with artificial cheese powder and in this case some artificial jalapeno flavoring.

Man, I have got to do that fall detox thing.

Sat by new friend and her brother at a game today. She really likes Melody's book. I think her brother had a little something in his diet Coke. Damn.

Terry got her new hip today, hip, hip hooray!!

DG,

Don't you think the okra might make the sweet potato/garlic jam a little lumpy? :H

I just wanted to say good for you with all your volunteer work. I used to do some back in my super energetic days.........
I mentioned this on the weekly thread today -
I heard on the news today that 44 million Americans (1 in 7) (35% are children) are living in poverty these days. How awful is that??? We need to do a better job in looking after one another..........what can we do to help?

I think you have a good start
G'nite all!
