Wouldn't you like to be that comfortable? I would, I'd love to find that perfect spot to lie down on, and lose myself to restful sleep and not have a care in the world. I've always said I'd like to be reincarnated into a pampered cat. Pampered meaning that I wouldn't have to deal with the elements, wouldn't have to hunt for food, would have a soft comfy bed in the morning sunlight and have my food bowl constantly filled, eat whenever I wanted to.


So I obviously haven't gotten back to my old blogging self, but perhaps I've improved a little in the last couple weeks. Still, I blame plurk.com, it sucks time away from me, but is fun, it's very interactive and I like communicating that way. I'm mitchypoo on plurk if you'd like to friend me.

I've got a new pen pal thru the Plurkette Hencircle and have a received a lovely, long letter from her. She's from the UK, on the coast and is quite interesting. I'm enjoying getting to know her. Hi Peri, if you are reading!

My tummy issues have continued and I'm doing what I can to try to heal myself. Well, I'm working with Eleni, my ayurveda practitioner, I'm not doing it all on my own. My diet is really good and I'm really enjoying it too. I'm limiting my wheat to see if that helps. I'm listening to my body as far as hunger goes and that is working for me.

And amazing things are happening, such as because I'm eating so well, my headaches are improving, and I'm not so lethargic. I'm enjoying the changes and trying to just keep it up, it's a change and I want it to become a habit, a daily routine. I'm also taking some herbs before and after meals and we'll see how that goes. The one herb mixture is not in capsules and I'm suppose to put it in some warm water and drink and I'm sorry but it's just NASTY! It has fennel in it, and I don't like the anise flavor, and it's gritty, oh, i may have to go buy some capsules. It's new too, so I'll continue and work it out somehow.

I've lost 25 lbs. total and tonight is weigh in and I'm hoping I've lost more, we'll see. We don't have a scale at home that works, so weigh in is it, so I have to judge by how I feel and right now, I feel like it could go either way. Be optimistic. Right? I think I've lost, and I want to see a loss, but truly even if I have gained, I feel better and that's more important.

Yellow roses are meant to mean, "Yellow Roses indicate joy, gladness, friendship and "I Care"" according to this website. We got these beautiful roses at the local farmers market. And what a deal! Long stemmed, everyone of the dozen was good quality and only $7. They lasted almost a week.

This picture is romantic to me. I was with someone special on the coast, it was dusk and the moon was starting to set and this lovely bird just made the picture. My special guy and I walked the pier, hand in hand, he had never seen the west coast and he really loved it. It takes me to a happy place!

This is a plant in our front garden. It was originally in a planter and at work. I don't know what you call the plant, but I like the pink bloom. It seems to like being outside and getting the morning sun.

Here is a pic of my Lace Ribbon Scarf. I really like the yarn, it has this pretty pink, with touches of green and even gold in it. It reminds me of Spring.Oh crap! I thought I'd get to bed early again but I forgot that Hell's Kitchen is on tonight! I LOVE that show and will try to stay up to watch it. I'll take my cough medicine AFTER the show.

Please.....PLEASE... comment if you are reading this, I'm feeling bloggy depression... It seems people are reading, but not commenting. Can you tell me why? Is there a reason? Is it the way I write that deserves no comment or does not invite your comment? I'm just wondering....

13 reasons why Mitchypoo hates the flu!
  1. I can't sleep. It's a little after 2 am and i'm restless and coughing and had to get up for awhile.
  2. I'm so sick I can't even knit. I've tried, but even that takes too much effort.
  3. I'm taking so much crap, I don't know what to take right now. Something for the cough, the sneezing, the runny nose, the lack of sleep, the body aches...
  4. Nothing tastes good. Lime sherbet is ok. I better lose some weight being this sick!
  5. I have a gland in my neck that wasn't enlarged yesterday at the dr's. that tonight was huge. Guess I'll have to call the dr. tomorrow a.m.
  6. The body aches are so awful, it's like my skin hurts to the touch.
  7. I wasn't able to make it to any of the services for Justin on Sunday or Monday.
  8. I cannot sleep for more than 4 solid hours which makes me feel like I haven't slept at all.
  9. I cannot get a comfortable spot to try and read a book.
  10. I got this red bump on my face, not a zit, it's got to be from this flu bug.
  11. I'm going on Day 4 of not even being able to think of going to work.
  12. I'm bored....
  13. I can barely talk and when I try people say, oh you sound awful...

He's so pretty. I love the look on his face. Sometimes it seems like he just adores everything about you and sometimes it's like, hey, feed me!

This was from our driving trip from MN to CA in Oct 2005 in the beautiful state of New Mexico. I so loved driving thru that state and next time I'm going to stay awhile and really enjoy the beauty.

You Belong in 1950


You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!



I thought it would say I should be in the 80's because I liked the 80's, but turns out i'm even older than that. I wasn't even a thought in the 50's but that's where I belong I guess. I do like the clothes and makeup style from then. I think I like a more gentler time.
I haven't been to work for 2 days, not feeling well.



Are any of you doing the Eckhart Tolle and Oprah Interactive Class? I heard of it but forgot to sign up and then being home yesterday I saw it again but couldn't sign up until after 5 pm our time which was after the first class. It seems that over half a million people signed on and crashed the Oprah site, I'm downloading the videocast right now. I don't know a lot about it but know that people say it is changing their life for the better. I'm all for that and want to know more. I really could use some inspiration and motivation about now. If you are reading the book and participating I'd love to hear of your experience and why you are doing it.
