I had a basically normal busy day yesterday, and it felt pretty good! But let's back up - my doctor's appointment on Thursday went well. I just had to pee in a cup and then speak with the doctor - he is super nice. I asked him for a copy of the negative cytology report and I just kept reading the phrase 'negative for carcinoma' as I walked to my car with it - I think I want to frame it! :-) Before I left the doctor's office, his nurse (whose mom beat cancer naturally) came in and gave me a hug and encouraged me. So that was nice. Friday I spent virtually all day in the kitchen from like 11:30am - 11:30pm - juicing and making some raw organic dishes. So then yesterday I was normal busy - I went to the farmer's market in downtown Tampa with my friend, Marie, in the morning. I came home, did some record coupon clipping, took Nicole to a birthday party, went shopping at Dollar General, came home and had lunch, went shopping at Publix (spent $80 saved $80 - booyah!), came home grabbed a shower, started exchanging old hangars in my closet for new ones, finished getting ready and then went out to dinner with our friends, the Perrella's (to a raw vegan restaurant in St. Pete - no guilt!), got home around 10:30ish, spent some time with the kids, then stayed up until 1:30am finishing the putting my clothes on new hangars - loving my closet now!
The major news to report from last night was that we were almost to St. Pete when Nathan called us to let us know the town & country had a flat tire! He and the boys were supposed to go pick Nicole up from her birthday party, drop her off at a girls' bible study, and then they were going to a boys' bible study. Thankfully, we had added Nathan to our AAA membership so we called AAA to come out to change the tire. Nathan didn't realize it but Noah decided he was going to change the tire himself, so he went out to there and jacked up the car and got the spare out but couldn't get the lug nuts off, so when the guy from AAA arrived it took him no time to change it since Noah had done most of the work for him! So the boys went ahead and went to their bible study a little late while Nicole stayed with her friend, and they just picked her up on the way back home. I guess our kids are growing up!
Today has been really nice - 11:00am service at church about not worrying (very appropriate) - lunch when we got home - ping pong and rummy with Nathan - then we had a time like we used to do that we called 'little church' - we all brought a passage of scripture that meant something to us and the overwhelming theme of the verses was LOVE! Gotta LOVE it! :-) It was really a special time - lots of laughs and some tears and some great discussion.
Speaking of discussion - in my search of others on the web who have beat cancer naturally I stumbled upon Cortney Campbell's blog this week - greendrinkdiaries.com, and a discussion of a homeopathic deodorant she discovered. It is 1/4 Cup organic corn starch, 1/4 Cup organic baking soda, and 7-8 Tbsp organic coconut oil. I halved the recipe because I was quite skeptical of it working, but I'm LOVING IT (just staying with the LOVE theme here). :-) I highly encourage everyone to ditch the toxic deodorant and antiperspirant and try this! My kids say I'm sounding like a hippy these days - maybe I am - but I'm telling you, I think I should start a campaign - Ditch the Deordorant! Everyone else is campaigning these days - why not? Well, mainly because I don't have the time right now - but some day you may see a campaign from me on this - and I would totally approve of my message!
OK - enough of that - it's been too long since I've been in the kitchen, so I guess I'll go make dinner! Hope everyone's having a great weekend! Loving this weather! Blessings to all. :-)
