Weekend happenings

Had a wonderful day at work today. Met a couple new cool ppl, and talked and laughed with them quite a bit. Did a full hour thai foot reflexology sessions on one of my regulars. She'd never had it before and LOVED it. Said the Aveda foot ritual was patooey compared:) Also did s'more thai on 2 other of the ladies. It was a fast-paced back-to-back day w/ 5 clients, 2-1hr sessions, 1-1.5 hr, and 2-1/2 hrs....and somehow I racked in $105 in tips!!?? what in the world? That has to be some sort of record! I somehow always dread going into work...prob'ly bc it's always on the most gorgeous day and I think, man, we could be camping, but once I get there, I really love it. It's nice to be able to make ppl feel better and make their lives that much happier. And just having had a massage last week, prob'ly did me some good too:) A good massage can change your life I tell ya. I'm thankful they allow me to keep my fake job of working 2 days a month after all these years!! I've been there over 7 yrs now, which sounds like a very long time. Longest I'd ever worked before that was maybe 1-2 yrs! So that says a lot for me:).

Came home from work and was starving bc I only had time to eat a banana and 1/2 an apple while i was there. Somehow my stomach never growled? So came home and was in the cooking mood. Made 2 batches of the sweet potato/blk bean burritos. Me and R ate 2 each for din dinn, then i froze the rest (6)...made 4 vegan, and 2 w/ real cheese. The vegan cheese i have so far doesn't really melt, but it looks pretty;) I don't remember it really tasting like anything either, so I got the name of a good one I hope to try soon, and it's soy free too. Been hearing some bad stuff about soy, so must put that on the list for things to look into. I've heard a little from both sides. I think pretty much everything will kill us at this point! FB has also been blowing up w/ the body by Vi stuff. I don't mind ppl drinking shakes and losing weight, but am getting a little irked w/ ppl comparing the vit's in that to fresh veggies...?? I don't see how that would compare. I'm not into a quick fix these days, but I do see the merit in that at times...for ease of life or if you have a lot of weight to get off.  I've been trying to just  make healthier choices and making my diet high fiber so I'm not in the hospital again....I feel I've turned a new leaf...just gotta work on the chocolate next:/  oh, bunny trail...so after the burritos, i made the stuffed peppers from Woman's Day. They've been posting a vegetarian recipe in there every month (yes, just one), and that's where I got the burrito recipe too. The peppers were REALLY good and the stuffing was amazing. I think they might even taste better if you put the filling in some shrooms instead? not sure. Cheesy wonderfulness...no not vegan;) I just saw where Tosca Reno's new vegetarian Eat Clean cookbook is coming out this month, so might hafta snag that one. Maybe I'll hit up B and N and  see if the recipes look easy enough. I'm all about ease.

Well, beddy bye. Fell asleep on the couch while the boys were watching Beauty and the Beast and guess i got my 2nd wind. I'd not seen that movie in ages so it was pretty funny to notice how animation's changed. E was glued. Miles was super snuggly. I love their ages right now!!!!

Well, nighty. church in the morning. maybe. we're all still coughing up a lung and R's been sick yesterday and today too, sounding like a hourse trucker and coughing. i'm still coughing up nice nasty stuff. UGH!  maybe tomorrow's a good day to hang and regroup so we'll see.
