Well – the reason for this cleanse is to reset my eating habits – I had lost a bunch of weight from going through a child custody case – prolly 20-30 bs.  But I was not healthy at all.  The past couple months other things happened in my life and I ended up eating a bunch of sugar – etc.  Probably mostly because I decided to eliminate any type of alcohol in my diet.  So, I yo-yo’d and put 20 lbs back on quick.  So – I needed to find some balance and that is the purpose of the cleanse.  To eliminate caffeine, sugar, alcohol, tobacco, energy drinks – etc. from my diet.  This is the 4th time I have done the cleanse – and last time it was for 22 days.  I guess I hit this wall  - and my body says enough.  I didn’t weigh myself in the beginning – because I didn’t want to use this for weight loss – since I am average to below average for my weight per my height.  I did lose a bunch – last time – it was about a lb a day. So… it was nice not obsessing about how much you lose because you put a good portion of it back on afterwards.  This time – I am going to change my eating habits and not include the sugar, flour, etc.  in my diet and focus on raw.  I don’t want to feel as if I am restricting myself – because I don’t think that is healthy either.  So… anyway – this is what is going on for me on day 20.  Tomorrow at 6pm it will be over and I will start juicing zucchini and cucumbers with some carrot and ginger.  Cheers!  Thanks for the support!

Have been listing artwork up pretty inexpensive up on Ebay - and listing work on Etsy as well – you can click on the links to take a look.  I am hoping to clean out my studio to have more space – in case one of these days I have, or need to move – whichever comes first.

Got some new plants and seeds for the garden yesterday.  I got a couple pepper plants, strawberry plants, and a blueberry bush.  Along with that I got some sweet corn seeds and more soy beans since the slugs ate everything!  I got more slug killer as well – geesh they are everywhere!

Anyway – Will write more later.  I need to get back to editing photos and possibly working on a painting I started yesterday…

Ciao for now!

So, today was good.  Got more of the garden re-planted since the slugs and bugs ate half of it.  After that went to the computer store to see what was wrong with our computers – My computer is fried – they weren’t sure why – so I have to go back tomorrow to see if it is cost-effective to have it fixed.  Then, my son’s  computer – the screen was broken, and my daughters will only be $50 to fix – this is a good thing!  I thought I would have to trash them all.  Woo hoo!  So…  Going back there at 10am.  So after that – went to the store to get a hoe and a couple more packs of seeds.

Came home, fixed the family dinner – and painted for a little bit.  Started on a small eye painting.  Sooo… that’s about that.  Not much else happened.

Anyway – good luck to all who are on the cleanse.  As I said, I am not sure how long I will do it for – 14 days minimum though.

Good Night all!

So, good night – and I will play more catch up tomorrow with art and all the other “stuff” that I think about.

Ciao.  Kelli
