Aries: May 20 to April 19 “I Am”
It is not Christmas outside but the energy around you feels festive. The friendships you keep will bring someone new into your life that will brighten your attitude beyond anything you have experienced in recent times.

Where’d you learn to swim? From a dog?

I have two skinny pool noodles that I love using new ways!  Today I twisted them into pretzels and stuck my arms through and I swam up and down the pool with them. They keep me high enough to keep my hair out of the water. “Where’d you learn to swim? From a dog?” Very funny. No, I just never got the hang of swimming and don’t put my face under. But I can float like a mofo!

I didn’t raise kids and don’t usually care for movies about kids and families but in this one, the kids are smart, curious, purposed and engaging.  I’m digging it since I’m not an action movie, violence, shoot em up, horror, zombie, lovey dovey, tearjerker movie watcher.

I haven’t been tummy sick for three years. I generally eat healthy with very few processed foods, nothing packaged, nothing fried, no four legged animals. When I eat something too heavy or fatty, my system lets me know. It rejects it mid process, saying “Enough, no more.” It’s not like it happened overnight. It’s not like I had no warning. The last 12 months I’d begun eating bread again, rediscovering sandwiches and eating them almost every day. That in itself is heavy for me. I began drinking coffee and Teechino almost daily, with milk. That’s good for 15 extra pounds a year later. I’d also begun enjoying tasty fried catfish. I’d gone seven years of absolutely no fried anything to eating it once or twice a month without guilt. Yesterday was one of those days.   Continue reading
