It hasn't been a good
day? ,
Week?, Month? I'll Settle on Month... for now.
It's been a down month I guess. I haven't been feeling myself... I don't feel like anybody right now.
I fully admit my self esteem is at it's lowest. Everything seems to be low. My happy meter needs a recharging.More then usual any ways. I guess a lot of people have noticed as well. Which alone i thought was strange. I usually stay around the unnoticed category.
Sam has asked me why I'm not myself and if someone was bothering me.Peter kept asking me why I was quiet then got upset when he tried to hug me and I slightly freaked out and basically ran from him. Ashley asked why I was a sad little monkey which made me giggle. no one calls me a monkey ever.
I can't really say for sure what has got me to down.
Yesterday I hit Saskatoon and picked out some new glasses. I picked out two pairs. if I remember I will post selfies with them on after I get them.
I tried to get a pair that was more subtle and a pair that was bold and fun looking. Hopefully I picked right.
Last night I attended a Amway plan group this. They claim it's not a pyramid scheme. They claim that pyramid schemes don't have products which they do.they say its the reverse of a pyramid.
I'm iffy on their products. They claim they use all natural products and want the best for their clients. But I really question that. I've tried a energry drink that claimed to have no sugar that made my anixety issues spike through the roof.
A product called perfect water that has 35mg of sodium because they add Sodium and Potassium chloride to it. I've also encountered nutrilite(best of nature, best of science) that has 29g of sugar alone, their ingredient list boasts multi juice but one called Natural flavors which equals down to a link i posted a while ago. How the flavor is created in a lab. The thing that worries me is the may contain which is such: Milk, Soy, Sulphites, wheat and tree nuts
I am also trying a vitamin from them called Cal Mag D advanced. I'm trying to up my magnesium. It's non medical ingredients have a interesting selection, corn starch, maltodextrin, tocopherois exciplent. the one that really makes me wonder is hydroxypropyle mthylcellulose. meaning these pills are not gluten free, in lab made vitamin E and a artificial coating..
It's easter this weekend. As most know, I'm not huge into the the holidays but I attend so I can see my little neices and nephews. This year my sister planned it for Friday so I could attend. Then it snowed and snowed that made it way to dangerous to drive anywhere. So the Big Bailey's Tin roof cheesecake that I made didn't have anywhere to go. John's parents invited us for supper so they got a piece of the cheesecake. they were in Heaven. It was insanely easy to make. A simple Bailey's chocolate cheesecake. topped with peanut brittle. When I made the brittle.I added a bit of bailey's so it wouldn't get super hard. So it was a soft brittle. I wasn't a huge fan of it though. John will get to enjoy it for a couple days.
My mother came on Wednesday. So On Tuesday. Like a good girl. I Cleaned my house top to bottom. Everything was spot less by tuesday evening. The bedroom moved around even. But when I got home from work that evening. I made up some PIzza which was tasty by the way. So it made my kitchen a bit messy. grating cheese, etc. Then in the morning. There was Water every where under the bed because i accidentally covered the vent. Opps. So things were tossed round.
So When my mother saw my house for the first time. It didn't look as awesome as it could of. But we spent the day together. In the morning we wandered round shopping because that is what mothers do. Shop. In fact she bought me three pairs of socks! but she took them home with her.
She got her hair trimmed. We went for lunch at boston pizza. I had a chipotle chicken pizza taco. and Dear god it was a amazing. I fully recommend it. Of course. Mum had a salad. but later we went for Coffee and had the peanut butter stack dessert served at BV. it's sold by sysco. It's a decent cake. That evening I made Tacos. Which sounds pretty normal except I made the tortillas first. Then I whip up a batch of Black refried beans and my taco meat is full of veggies. So its a bit time consuming but so worth it. Though my refried beans were a tad salty.
I've been reading lot about carrot cake lately which is kind of weird since i"m not really a huge fan of it but what ever. Carrot cake pancakes. And Oatmeal!!!1
I'm trying to eat breakfast and hit salads again So why not start my week with Carrot cake oatmeal! It was a smart decision. It definitely makes you think of carrot cake!.
in fact. Here is the ingredients. You could it like you would normal oatmeal so Im not giving instructions because everyone should know how to cook oatmeal... Stove top not just microwave.
1 Small carrot-grated (1/4 Cup)
1 Cup hot water
1/3 Cup Oats or Porridge mix
1 Tbsp Craisins or raisins
2 Tbsp Coconut-Optional
2 Tbsp Walnuts- Optional
1 pinch of each-GInger, Nutmeg, and cinnamon
1/2 Tsp Vanilla extract
1 or 2 Tbsp Of Honey or Brown sugar.
I made mine with a porridge mix so it was full of flax and other healthy Crap. I made enough for John as well. Who is still Sleeping(11Am) .Even made him a coffee. it's probably sitting by the bed getting cold. I really wonder why I do Nice things for him because they sure as heck don't seem to be noticed very often.
