My eyelid is better. I think the culprit may be the moisturizing oil I use on my face. I love this stuff and I have been using it for well over a year now with great results, but I think it turned on me. I tried not using it yesterday, and using the stuff I … Continue reading Just a little “streak keeper” post

A Little Day
I woke up with my right eye totally puffed out and burning, and the left one trending in that same direction. I am going crazy with this. I cannot figure it out. Why worse in the morning? Then I went and trained with Vince. Sunjana was there training today, too. Sunjana works at the health … Continue reading A Little Day
I Need More Fire
I feel so much better after talking to Jennifer this afternoon! My eye is no better, and maybe it’s even a little worse, but now I have someone helping me get to the bottom of this, and that is a big relief. She said I need more fire. She told me to indulge in fats, … Continue reading I Need More Fire
Help is on the way
Day 3 of this no coffee, no sugar, no alcohol torture. It’s not the alcohol or the sugar I miss, it’s the coffee. I do feel a little better today, and that’s because help is on the way. Last night I got this text from my friend Jennifer Ness Schmid: “Hi, You should not have … Continue reading Help is on the way
Winter, enough.
I am sitting here on the couch with the headphones on because the basketball game is on and I can’t really write with that blithering in my head. I am in my 2nd day of no coffee and I think my eyes are getting worse, not better. I know 2 days isn’t much, but I … Continue reading Winter, enough.
Elimination Diet Begins Tomorrow
I have no idea what to write tonight. This is my 34th post in a row. I started out on February 18th, Ash Wednesday, with the goal to post every day until Easter, which I believe is April 5th. But tonight I am hitting the wall, I am scrounging for content. But I will not … Continue reading Elimination Diet Begins Tomorrow
The Doyen of the Detox
G posted some pictures on Facebook today. Pictures of dirt. Pictures of the ground. Pictures of people not wearing coats. I don't remember that. I looked in the mirror today and let's just say, I'm not a "winter." My skin is the color of a codfish.. The bags under my eyes could hold my wallet, phone, … Continue reading The Doyen of the Detox
Food Sins
Last night I came home from my wild and crazy Fall Flow class, starving. On the counter stood a warm rotisserie chicken and a bottle of wine at the perfect temperature. Oh god, it was the sight of heaven. I fixed a plate, poured some wine and settled into the couch for a DVRed episode … Continue reading Food Sins
Eating Out
There's something great about eating out: ordering from a menu, having a cocktail, choosing a dessert. And the whole thing about having someone else cook your meal, bring it to you, then whisk away the dishes, leaving you to linger over your wine, or a coffee? Yeah. I'm all about it. So tonight G suggested … Continue reading Eating Out
Cleanse: Day 7
I actually heard myself say today, "I don't really strive to live my life; all I really want to do is create content-- interesting content." Today I cooked. All day. Homemade chicken soup and a tofu stirfry. Living "clean" is labor intensive. I also sorted recyclables, walked the dog, did some laundry, washed dishes, and … Continue reading Cleanse: Day 7
