A Message From God
Hey dummies! Dramatic, changeable weather is the earth telling you it's warming and you better prepare for it. Believe what you want about the cause; natural or man made, but it is happening. And speaking of fossil fuels, you DO realize there is a finite amount of them, right? What does it matter if the massive amounts of CO2 you pump into the ( Read more... ) -
Welcome to the Suana
It rained last night. For about 30 minutes it poured buckets. Of course, the ground is so dry, I'm sure most of the moisture ended up down the storm drains, but it was better than nothing; I think. Today, the temperature is supposed to top 105 but we now have the benefit of all that lovely humidity. At least it cleaned the air a little. Fall ( Read more... ) -
Helping the economy, one purchase at a time
As anyone who knows me can attest, I hate spending money. I'm not a hoarder (yet), a tightwad who can't throw away freezer burned food (yet), but major, or even minor, purchases give me night sweats. But, being a patriot American, I decided to venture into Consumer Land, armed with my Visa. Charge ( Read more... ) -
Yummy snacks are possible!!
I'm dieting, again. Same shit different day, except I'm focusing more on portion size and healthier choices than a severely restrictive diet. Don't get me wrong, those diets work very well, but they make me kind of crazy. I'm not sure why. I think it's because the body image changed too fast and the mind couldn't adjust, but for whatever reason ( Read more... ) -

I don't like pain; it hurts me
Please bear with me; I need to whine a little. About two weeks ago my right knee decided it didn't like its normal anatomical position and shifted ever so slightly to the left. Not a big shift, mind you, just enough to throw everything off kilter and give me LOTS of pain. I've been through this before and I know eventually everything will slip ( Read more... ) -
Palatable Grapefruit
Oh dear, the scales tell me salt in this heat is not a good thing. Hence, those chewy Quaker Oats Bars are off the menu for breakfast. The grapefruit I purchased must now become breakfast fodder, but since sugar is also off the menu, I found a way to make grapefruit edible without resorting to artificial sweeteners. I peeled it like I would an ( Read more... ) -
Face waxing and other tortures
Two weeks ago I finally gave in and went to the beauty shop. They cut off about 8 inches of way too thin, split ended gray hair and waxed off my beard. I feel like the old lady from the Golden Girls, "You wake up one morning and realize you look like Yasser Arafat ( Read more... ) -
That will teach you to stay away for three months
I haven't posted in like forever. Not since early January, to be exact. I went cruising through my friends page, with my few LJ friends, but I only got two pages that went back a few weeks. Perhaps the rest will post later. Perhaps LJ has decided I don't deserve to read entries if I don't make any.
