Killing time while digesting. (Part 1)

Yep, that's right. DIGESTING. I'm pretty full and don't exactly want to get up and do the things I need to do just yet so I thought I'd kill some time on myspace. I haven't been around much. I'm ok with that, but no harm in checking in every now and then. I noticed that they've done some upgrading on the messaging and stuff... it sucks that they JUST NOW got all the fancy messaging shit going. Because now I pretty much never use it, but I used to a lot. I DO NOT care for the whole "sending groups of people you never talk to chain messages" thing, though. Gross.

Shaun (and me - to a lesser extent) put the hall floor down. It looks AWESOME. I should post pictures, but I'm just not right now. If anyone wants to see it that bad you should just come and visit me. That is what I think. I might even let you walk on it. 😜

Also, we moved things in the house around a bit and I think it looks nice. Now I have a lot more space in my bedroom and now that the computer isn't in there I'm just less drawn to it. The computer is really close to the dogs' room so when I'm sitting here ignoring them I feel really bad. And then I get off my ass and go love on them. I guess that's one way to keep my internet usage in check. 😂

Shadow started 4th grade on Monday. So he's old. Yeah - Middle School next year. Time flies.

I bought a juicer a couple of weeks ago and I LOVE that thing. I'm having spinach / apple / carrot juice every morning and usually a glass of orange juice. Orange and apple juice - for the record - tastes SO MUCH YUMMIER when it is not store-bought. You won't find anything like this packaged. Another juice that is really tasty is carrot / apple / strawberry. I know some of this might sound really gross, but it's not. It is the complete opposite of gross, for realz. Come over one day and I'll make you some. I decided to get a juicer for my health (namely, my skin). I've read a lot about certain vegetables (that I would probably never really eat) being good for psoriasis and so now I'm juicing them. If you add fruit juice to juiced vegetables that you don't really like it changes the taste completely. I've gone through 3 bags of oranges, 3 bags of apples, 5 bags of baby spinach, 1 bag of carrots, and 1 container of strawberries in a week. That's more produce than I usually get in months.

My skin - for the record - is a little better. But I need to start juicing beets and adding that to the mix. I hear that it's one I'm going to need a lot of. So it's a learning process and whatnot. Aside from my skin I feel pretty good. Juice gives me tons of energy and not like the rise and crash of caffeine. If feels different - in a good way. I've also lost some squish... I don't have any idea if it even equals up to a pound (nor do I care) - I'm just saying that it's something I've noticed. So no complaints there. I'm actually considering trying to go mostly raw by the end of the year... currently, I'm only eating like, 1 cooked meal per day. Sometimes more, but not always. I've noticed that the more I eat raw veggies and stuff like that (and the more juice I drink) the more of that I want. So it's interesting how that affects you.
