wow. i haven't posted since may. and it's almost august. <br />
<br />
i know, you forgive me. because you are faithful minions. and i loves you. yes you.<br />
<br />
anywho<br />
<br />
and i know you already know this, but it helps me to put it down on "paper". we have a new plan. and the awesome part is that it fits in with most of our other plans, it's just a bit more long term. the plan is that in the next ten to fifteen years, all our debts will be paid off and we'll have saved enough in the bank to buy a 36ish foot sailboat that we'll be living on. hubby and i will each be in our (very early) fifties (and i REALLY don't feel like i'm going to be 40 this year, i still feel like i'm doing something wrong when i buy wine) so it's a perfect way to ease ourselves into some kind of retirement. <br />
<br />
plus our jobs suck just a little less now that we know there's an end date.<br />
<br />
but there is a huge adjustment. another reason for the 10-15 year time frame. first step is trying to simplify our lives. getting rid of clutter/downsizing/minimizing, whatever you want to call it. several bags have already gone to goodwill, and many hundreds more will go eventually. i'm sure that eventually i'll have to give up on my big canvases, but i really don't want to. i've got time to figure out how to do that on a boat. we're also going to be buying less. a lot less. less nights out (ha! like there were soooooo many of those), less new toys. less new clothes. i've given myself a challenge to only buy 4 articles of clothing for the next year. july to july. should be interesting.<br />
<br />
and i'm thinking of re-naming my blog. i have an idea about what i want to call it, but i'm not 100% sure yet. i may just make a new blog altogether, that's always an option. i'll let you know either way. and i promise i'll try to post more frequently. i can't guarantee, but i'll try </div>

My Darling Meg,<br />
<br />
tomorrow is your 21st birthday. you will be officially, at least in they eyes of society, an adult. you can smoke. you can drink. you can fight and die for your country. you can vote. yes, for all but one of those things, you have been able to do for quite some time. but i've included them for a reason, because i want you to understand the weight of being an adult. <br />
<br />
being an adult is filled with responsibility. please don't for a second think i'm saying this because you are irresponsible. you are not. you have taken on more responsibility in your short life that some who have been alive decades longer. i'm talking about responsibility to yourself. you are a smart and witty and beautiful woman. and that is a heavy and glorious purpose. <br />
<br />
glorious because the world is so sparkling and new. there is so much yet that you haven't experienced. there is food and drink, and art, and distant lands, and music... i cannot even begin to tell you the beauty this world holds for you. you have everything ahead of you. love. oh love. i hope so much that love grabs onto you and never lets go. it makes you see everything again with new eyes. there is so much of this world to be passionate about. you've seen so little of it. my greatest wish for you is to get lost in the world and to just experience it with open arms and soul. be a nomad, even if it's only in your mind, make the world you home even if you never leave your apartment.<br />
<br />
heavy because it comes with burdens. humans are humans after all. people will see your brains and assume you are a "bitch". they will see your looks and assume you are dumber than a box of rocks. both false. but before ever talking to you they will have a preconceived notion that you are less than you are. that you are lacking. and they will try their hardest to grind you down, to bring you to their level of pain so that they are not alone in it. to make one more miserable asshole in this world. just like them. <br />
<br />
prove them wrong darling.<br />
<br />
your responsibility as an adult is now to prove to the world that it is possible to be sweet but not stupid. to be wildly intelligent and vastly beautiful. prove, my dear sweet Meg, that the people of the world cannot break you. to be wild, and free, and glorious. be yourself and NEVER apologize for it. for you my sweet have NOTHING to apologize for. you are perfect. <br />
<br />
happy birthday<br />
<br />
your aunt heather</div>

boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew. <br />
<br />
i love potatoes. and since their gluten free its something that i can eat as much of as i like. i made a whole bunch tonight to go with our every morning eggs, and they turned out so perfectly that i just have to share<br />
<br />
<br />
Po-Tay-Toes<br />
<br />
5 lb bag of potatoes<br />
1 large onion<br />
1/2 c veg oil<br />
Pink Hemylaian Salt<br />
Fresh cracked Pepper<br />
Thyme<br />
Garlic powder<br />
(honestly, i didn't measure the spices, just do it to taste, i LOVE thyme, so this has a lot in it)<br />
<br />
wash and cube the potatoes, chop the onion, pour the spices in the oil, mix up, and dump over the potato/onion. mix every thing up and put on 2 baking sheets in a 350 oven for 30 minutes. check after 30 to see if they need a little more time. <br />
<br />
these are so wonderful and it makes a lot, so this can be stretched out over several meals, a bunch of breakfasts and probably a dinner or two. <br />
<br />
enjoy!<br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">so i've obviously recommitted to eating gluten free. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">i love my stir fry. so so much. but seriously, it's RIDDLED with gluten. everything in it. soy sauce... gluten. store bought stir fry sauce... gluten. packet of instant egg drop soup... you guessed it. now don't get me wrong, i made each and every one of those things for hubby for dinner, i just can't eat it. but what i did make for me? oh my dear sweet baby Thor, it was good. i was very proud of myself and posted a picture of my dinner on facebook, and my friend Kathy asked for the recipe, so here you go. i'm including the sites where i found the original recipe as well, but i'll list my substitutions/changes here</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Pressure Cooker Coconut Rice <a href="http://www.pressurecookingtoday.com/2013/07/quick-coconut-rice/">here</a></span><br />
<br />
1/2 c brown rice<br />
1 can coconut milk<br />
1 c water<br />
1tsp sugar<br />
1/4 tsp Himalayan pink salt<br />
<br />
dump everything in the pressure cooker and put on high. once the top starts swinging (i have an older model), let it go for about 3 minutes, then turn off the heat. when when it stops rocking all together, release the rest of the pressure, then open when the pressure is totally gone. ALWAYS follow proper safety instructions (especially if they differ from mine) when using a pressure cooker!<br />

<span style="background-color: #fcf6e2; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; letter-spacing: 0.5px; line-height: 1.2em;">mix everything together and heat up till it starts to bubble. pour over stir fry veggies, and serve the whole thing over the coconut rice</span><br />

<p dir=ltr>And I did feel better.  Quite a bit better.  Bloat gone.  Cramps, all but disappeared.   I even lost a bit of weight.  That honestly is no small feat, im a stress eater, and this was a particularly stressful time.  (Issues)  I even managed to go to a Con and stay <i>mostly</i> gluten free.   Yes, it involved taking all my own food with me, but I did it dammit.   </p>
<p dir=ltr>But finances being what they are (we like to be silly and pay all our bills when they are due), and our completely frakked up-corporate-owned food system being what it is, hubby and I had to make a tough decision when it came to groceries.  We could get gluten free food for me, and everyone else would have to eat processed cheapass "food", or we could eat as unprocessed as we could for the whole family,  and I would have to eat gluten.   </p>
<p dir=ltr>The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.</p>
<p dir=ltr>Its been two days.  And this experiment is now concluded.   Im absolutely certain that if I dont have celiac disease, im at the very least gluten intolerant.  Within these two days ive had massive stomach cramps like someone socked me right in the gut, headaches and now a full blown migraine, every joint hurts.   And im not even going to get into what goes on in the bathroom.   Its not pretty.  Or fun.  For anybody in the house.  </p>
<p dir=ltr>So thats it.  I have to be gluten free. While I haven't been tested, I think I know my own body well enough to know that something is wrong with it.   I didnt run to a doctor when I broke out in hives when I eat dates, I know im allergic.  (Actually in that case I do, they will kill me, but the analogy is sound) The next two weeks will be tough, but I see a lot of rice in my future.  Thankfully most of the groceries we got, I can have.  Ill be having green beans on mac n cheese night,  though.  I may have to leave some stuff off my plate, but ill manage.  This, like everything else is a work in progress.   </p>

<br />
my friend Jodi found this adorable sword holder on pintrest. i absolutly had to make one for bam. but the link was dead of course. <br />
<br />
so i decided to bust out the pen and paper and make my own. <br />
<br />
the pattern itself only took 20 minutes to make (i'm a professional remember) and it sewed up like a treat. see...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBSwLKuZgAb6G5XgXhgdh4TUHEeeq7lnRidtWAH9ApHEac-LCedTEFSvreRJ5GjJh45AZjlntqw06NmePOb1N0R5UwG1LI1rN0qdZ78gl7I6HUhsVJGZR4g7e1sdGV79HQELLaX4aiotMH/s1600/bam+sword.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBSwLKuZgAb6G5XgXhgdh4TUHEeeq7lnRidtWAH9ApHEac-LCedTEFSvreRJ5GjJh45AZjlntqw06NmePOb1N0R5UwG1LI1rN0qdZ78gl7I6HUhsVJGZR4g7e1sdGV79HQELLaX4aiotMH/s1600/bam+sword.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
here is the pdf for the pattern. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-PdR74O7RtRNEtvUEZBNXFianM/edit?usp=sharing">SWORDHOLDER</a><br />
<br />
<br />
construction is super easy. cut out two of each patter piece, plus one of interfacing if you're using a thin material (i used canvas for this one), sew the front and back of each piece together with a small (1/4 inch) seam allowance. notch, flip, and press. take the "sword piece" and make a 3 inch slot with the zig zag stitch with the stitch legnth as small as you can make it. make it in the shape of a rectangle about a 1/4 inch in width. i used bias tape on the very top of the sword piece. now put the sword piece on the shield piece, and stitch it on, leaving the top (bias taped bit) open. top stitch the sword/shied bit. now attach the shield/sword bit to the belt bit however you like. put on your favorite belt.<br />
<br />
adorable. </div>

i've been painting off and on all day. not spending more than an hour in front of the canvas. a little here, a little there. i've been using new techniques, approaching it in different ways. i'm using acrylic. i've fallen in love with it. <br />
<br />
this has been the best day in a long time. <br />
<br />
noting major has happened. i've not won the lottery (with the exception of the awesomeness of my family, cause lets face it, i got the winning ticket there), no rich uncle has left me a million dollars, nothing so extreme. but hubby and i had a wonderful relaxed date last night, and today i've accomplished nothing but art. <br />
<br />
this painting is far from over. what i originally thought i wanted on the canvas isn't what's coming through, and i'm super ok with that. what's coming out is much more authentic. see, i got this book on date night last night called <a href="http://braveintuitiveyou.com/">Brave Intuitive Painting </a> and it's really helping me to let go when i paint. and i need that. cause i'll let you in on a little secret. i think i suck. there is a little voice in my head that is constantly telling me that the ideas i have can never in any way shape or form be translated onto that canvas. that every doodle i make is shite. that if anyone should ever throw away her brushes because it's a waste of time, it's me. that voice tells me i am an awful artist. <br />
<br />
but i'm not. no one is. and i have to pick up that brush to prove to myself that that voice is a lie. that what i'm putting on the canvas is beautiful, and lovely, and worthy. and it is. it really is. painting helps me find my voice, my expression. so i'm not going to stop. i'm also going to put up pictures of my works in progress on my instagram and facebook accounts as they are worked on. please give me any criticism you like. just remember, it's a process, and the work will always be changing as i change as an artist. <br />

i made a joke the other day, i don't even remember what we were talking about, but i said "well, in our dream home..." ya da ya da ya da. Hubby looked at me and smiled, "baby, this IS our dream home."<br />
<br />
and he's right. we didn't buy this house to turn around and sell it in five or ten years. we bought it because it has character, and a personality, and a soul. it needs someone to take care of it. to love it. and we do. it even has it's own name. Greenhome. bubby named it, and it was one of those perfect and serendipitous names that is amazing and right, and all those things. and honestly, unless something drastic happens, i don't ever see us leaving Greenhome. its ours and we are it's. <br />
<br />
it's honey color pine floors, chocolaty baseboards, and cream color plaster. the garden that will take up the entirety of the front yard. the back yard that i'm sure, given even fifty years, will never match the picture i have in my head (which involves massive multi level tree houses, pirate ships, and a TARDIS garden shed). the zen garden i want to put in the side where i can't get anything to grow. it's broken fence and peeling paint. its built in china cabinet, and the part of the wall where it's last caretaker chose to fix it with duct tape. the good and the bad, we belong together. <br />
<br />
Greenhome isnt an investment. it is our home. the place where we can simply be. </div>

i want to talk to you for a minute. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
i want to talk to you about power. the power that we as humans posses. the power that we give away. the power of words. about keeping power. about taking it away from others. about your power.<br />
<br />
we are powerful beings. you have so much intellect, and beauty, and energy, and potential. you have so much power, and you don't recognize even a millionth of it. we give our power away to parents, and lovers, and teachers, and bosses. to our children, to our siblings. that give and take of power is fine, even beautiful. it's love and compromise, and respect. <br />
<br />
but most of all we give our power away to people that abuse it. that rip if from us and leave us wounded and broken. a hollow shell of self hate and anger. and we do it willingly, even paying for the privilege. from fashion magazines, to reality television, everything about the cult of celebrity that has overtaken out culture, or what passes as our culture anymore. <br />
<br />
words have power. ask a three year old about Santa Claus and you will see how much power words have. when you say something that makes it real. when we watch these reality shows, and fashion shows, and read the trashy magazines that follow "celebrities" we take that power and twist it.<br />
<br />
i stumbled across <a href="http://latestfunnystuff.com/adam-hill-is-just-fantastic/">this</a> on pintrest today, and it had a bigger effect on me than i thought it would. for those that don't click the link, it is Australian comedian Adam Hill giving Joan Rivers a piece of his mind because of some rather unflattering things that she tweeted and said about Adele on the Tonight Show. she was mean. very mean. to a woman that, to my knowledge, has never done anything disrespectful to Ms Rivers. i read it. sat and thought about it for a while. then i got mad. <br />
<br />
this 'person' was trying to hurt someone else for sport. ripping away the power and beauty of another individual. tearing down another human being with words poised like claws. why? to hurt. to strip away another persons power, leaving them wounded. bleeding. <br />
<br />
we have to stop giving that power away. it's too precious. too valuable. when we watch the shows, read the magazines, that power is ripped away. gone. and we'll never get it back. and there comes a point, there has to, where we have no power at all. none left for our children, for our lovers, out parents.... we are empty shells. what then? what horrible hollow thing will we become? are we already in danger of becoming?<br />
<br />
what would happen if we all just said "no more!"? if we each resolved to keep our power, to no longer let others take it from us? what kind of world would we have if the only transfer of power was done with love and respect? <br />
<br />
so i, for one, am done. i have no more power left for those things. my power is mine. my light, my soul, my intimate sexiness, my wonderful indefinable quality, mine and mine alone. i will no longer give that power away. </div>

I'm working on getting better coping mechanisms. in the long days past (aka last month), if something damaged my calm i would sit down with an entire pizza, or a whole order of deep fried pickles or mozzarella sticks. i can't do that anymore. for one, if i eat that much cheese i will be doubled over in pain in an hour, and two, if i eat that much (or any really I'm discovering) gluten i'll blow up like a balloon and feel nauseous for weeks. so no. and in the last couple of days i've needed a coping mechanism. <br />
<br />
now, a little back story: i've always considered myself an artist. (admitedly, for about 80% of that time, i'm not sure why i did, i wasn't producing any art) i have always drawn. i don't remember a time in my life wehn i ddin't have at least one, if not ten half finished sketchbooks littered around the house. i have worked in crayon, conte, pastels, oils, acrylic, ceramic, and a couple of times in mashed potato. i minored in art in college, with an emphasis in sculpture. i once made a replica of a combat boot out of wire. had i ever finished my bachelors degree, i was invited to go to San Francisco College of Art to achieve my masters. i don't say this to brag. i say it so you know how engraned in me it is. <br />
<br />
so when the world was swept out from under me, instead of killer food, i picked up a nice cup of tea and a pencil. and here are some of the results:<br />

i was.... pissed. <br />
<br />
you know that level of mad where you see it from the other side and realize just how ridiculous you are being? that "why can't i let it go, i can't let it go? oh, i can't let it go because i have so much MAD invested in this mad" level of mad? yep, i was there. i was laughing i was so upset. like laughing at how... just ridiculous i was being. <br />
<br />
no, i'm not going to get into what upset me.<br />
<br />
but my husband. gods i love that man. he is seriously the most supportive person ever in the history of everty ever. he listened to me vent. and i did. i ranted and railed. i shook my fist at the universe and didn't use all my fingers. he held my hand and patted my back. he told me everything was going to be ok. and when it was over, when my vitrol was spent, he did the most amazing, most wonderful thing. he walked with me upstairs, went into our storage area and drug out all my canvas' and my easel. he moved stuff around in the play room so that i have an area to paint in. he even reminded me i have an almost new set or oil paints that i haven't even popped the seals on. <br />
<br />
so for the past two days i've been working on a painting. im not great with oils, i really need to practice. i'm considering taking a painting class (acrylics, but the skills transfer) at a nearby art studio. maybe even see how much renting some studio time would cost, but i'm not taking that train of thought seriously. we have children, not studio time, and i have a responsible steak a mile wide, that's money that can be spent better somewhere else. <br />
<br />
here is my piece so far. it's still in the very early stages, so a lot is bound to change. <br />

i'm going to start this off my saying i've lost nothing. admittedly weight loss is not my main goal, the elimination of at times debilitation stomach cramps is (and in that case it's just working fine, thanks for asking), but it would be nice. but all in all, the food that i've had this week has been tasty, fresh, and with the exception of the massive amount of tortilla chips, good for me. tortilla chips are just an easy go to grab for a snack. so here is what i've had to eat most of this week. <br />

so today is day 3 of "pretty much" gluten free. i say pretty much because i haven't fully researched all the ingredients of the coffee creamer i had on the first two days, and apparently the good people at Terry's Chocolate Orange haven't yet gotten the memo that i'm trying gluten free because there's a possibility of cross contamination. dammit. there just SO good!!!<br />
<br />
anyway. i'm noticing some detox like symptoms. achy joints, stuffiness, etc. and i got the book Wheat Belly on my kindle. i like it so far, but i'm still in the early stages. going gluten free is a process. a process of CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!! (and if you read that in Mad Eye Moody's voice, i tip my glass to you) because there's always a risk of cross contamination. now, to be clear, i don't have ciliac disease. i'm not going to die if i have a crouton on my salad. but reading into the genetic manipulation of wheat, knowing that evolutionarily we just aren't supposed to be eating this stuff, and doing research, i've made the conscious decision to eliminate it. it's an experiment. i want to see if i feel better if i cut out gluten. if i don't, i can add it back. but if i do, it will prove to me what i'm reading is true. <br />
<br />
and with the massive amounts of gluten free recipes out there, i don't think it's going to be too much of a hardship. no, really. i have a pintrest <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/sithyogini/my-gluten-free-journey/">board</a> set up for the recipes i find, and i'll be adding more as i find them. even at walmart you can get gluten free baking mix and cake mixes. and a little preparation goes a long way. like today, i was gifted some beef neck bones from a friend that goes in for a cow share. i boiled up the bones to make a stock, took the meat that was left along with carrots, celery, and peas, i made the best damn beef veg soup that you'll ever have. i ladled them into my huge collection of mason jars, and now i have an entire week worth of lunches made. and it took me 15 minutes of actual "work". <br />
<br />
the rest of the house is decidedly NOT gluten free. but here also, i just need to pre-plan a bit. with the turkey stock i made i'm making two batches of turkey soup. turkey noodle for the hubby, and turkey and brown rice for me. really not a noticeable difference as far as i'm concerned. even eating out i've got lots of options. we got take out at work today from Panera, i looked ahead and saw that the chicken hummus power bowl is gluten free, but may have cross contamination. so much like my beloved Terry's Chocolate Orange, i can have it since i'm not TOO worried about contamination. admittedly, i may get cross contamination worried later on if i really see a marked difference without gluten. but for now, i'll deal.<br />
<br />
i'll keep a kind of journal here (when i feel like it, lets face it, i'm a touch and go blogger), and report my experience. <br />

so as you may or may not know, we're celebrating our holidays a little late this year. not till the 28th. right now we get away with just not doing anything on the 25th, but in later years we're going to use the "Santa asked for volunteers to celebrate later so that he can get to more people in one night". that means that i'm just now getting around to getting the stockings finished. <br />
<br />
but they are AWESOME.<br />
<br />
so here is how you create absolutely perfect holiday stockings:<br />
<br />
step one : <br />
have access to an amazing embroidery machine.... or my mother. seriously, she has the most outstanding skills in the embroidery department. she does it all, tshirts, blankets, polo shirts, even patches. she has mad skillz.<br />
<br />
step two:<br />
take down the hideous curtains in the man cave, do not let your husband know what you're doing with them, just mysteriously walk out of the room. put up new curtains.<br />
<br />
step three:<br />
get embroidery files that perfectly encapsulate the inner Santa of each member of your household. for this, i went to <a href="http://www.urbanthreads.com/default.aspx">UrbanThreads</a> and downloaded their <a href="http://www.urbanthreads.com/search.aspx?qs=santa%20pack&df=Machine">Santa Surprise</a> design pack and a freebie that they offered a few weeks ago. (honestly, if you like embroidery even a little, check their website every week, they have amazing freebies ALL THE TIME) have your (my) mother embroider the files onto the horrible curtains. <br />

cut the freshly embroidered files into a vaguely stocking like shape<br />
<br />
<br />
step five:<br />
<br />
sew them together, adding the almost obsessive amount of vintage lace and trims i have stashed away instead of fur (actually, the boys have a really neat vintage fur ribbon.... 1960's). don't forget to add a loop. <br />

i make them every year. i never keep them more than a couple of months. no one does really. i mean, how many times have you looked into the windows of a gym on january 15th and seen it packed, just to do the same thing on march 15th to see it empty? resolutions don't last. you can resolve to do whatever you like, but that doesn't mean you have the willpower to stick it out. I'm sorry, but it's true. i know i don't have the willpower most of the time. seriously, the only resolution I've ever stuck with is to be amazing. and lets face it, that one isn't hard to keep. <br />
<br />
so this year (and I'm thinking of making it a tradition), instead of a list of resolutions, I'm making a list of knitting. I'm blogging it here so i can keep you all posted (i know how you worry), and this way i can also look back and see what projects i have yet to do. so here is my list of new year knitting along with links, but no pictures, because I'm lazy and about to go have our christmas with the hubbs family.<br />

the holidays are a special time. filled with home, and family, and hearth. snow blanketing the land, the twinkle of lights on the tree. the joy. the carols. but when you're a Pagan, the holidays can be a minefield. here is a little list that might make it easier to navigate.<br />
<br />
<br />
1. don't get your panties in a bunch. yes, early Christians moved the birth of Jesus to coincide with the winter solstice in order to make conversion to Christianity <a href="http://www.ucg.org/doctrinal-beliefs/biblical-evidence-shows-jesus-christ-wasnt-born-dec-25/">easier</a>. you aren't going to win friends and influence people by rubbing it in their face every time someone says 'Merry Christmas'. chillax.<br />
<br />
2. be nice. if you know someone is Christian, tell them Merry Christmas. if you know someone is Jewish, say "Happy Hanukkah". being polite isn't going to kill you. <br />
<br />
3. call it Yule if you want to. or call it Christmas. in our house we use the terms interchangeably. no one really cares what you call it. <br />
<br />
4. it's OK to get frustrated. yes, people will ask you why you celebrate if you aren't Christian. they may even be rude about it. that's their drama, not yours, and it says more about who THEY are than who they think you are. at worst, you've just dealt with a douche bag, at best you've made somebody think.<br />
<br />
5. find something to LOVE about the holidays. for me, it's Santa. there are so many Odin references that i can't not love it. for you, maybe it's the cookies, the carols, the snow, the rum, whatever.<br />
<br />
6. remember that believing in something other than a "mainstream" religion makes people afraid. they begin to question their own beliefs, and that's uncomfortable for them. be kind. <br />
<br />
7. know when to walk away. there are a couple of people i just steer clear of the entire month of December. it's not worth the digs, snide comments, and "jokes". <br />
<br />
8. know when to stand up. if someone is truly harassing you because of your religion, remember that it is your Constitutionally protected right to Freedom of Religion. you have every right to believe what ever you believe. sometimes you need to stand and say enough.<br />
<br />
9. above all else, be true to yourself. if you're not a "Christmas-y" person, don't even try. if you want to run through town screaming "SANTA!!!!", go for it. make it yours.<br />
<br />
happy holidays everybody</div>

i have a plan. a very specific 1-2 year plan on a complete health overhaul. the ultimate plan is to go gluten free, dairy free, organic, grass fed animals, real fat, real food, and daily yoga (and hopefully get my yoga teacher certification too). and this plan isn't just for me, but for my family too. it' going to take a couple of years to get everything done. this is something i want to really excel at, so small changes. take today for example, instead of getting the microwave breaded chicken nuggets at the store, i got a bag of frozen chicken breasts. i baked them and gave them to Bam for lunch. yes, he fussed a bit (he doesn't like new food), but he still ate them. and i can feel better about giving it to him. admittedly, it was commercial chicken, and i'm not really happy about that, but it's a small step. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
the path is forged with small steps. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
for starters, i'm slowly ditching processed food. the chicken nugget for chicken breast is the first step. today was cooking day, so i made a big ole pot of potato soup, and i'll take those to work for the next week. BOOM, instant fast food, and it's saving me money since i don't have to buy my lunch every day. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
once the processed food addiction is kicked, i'm going to phase out dairy. now, i love cheese, so this is going to be particularly difficult. i love cheese. cheese and sour cream. and yogurt. if i could fry a mix of cheese and sour cream and yogurt i would live on that for the rest of my life. which admittedly wouldn't be long. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
after that is the gluten. i love bread almost as much as i love cheese, and there is gluten in almost EVERYTHING, so i'm really not looking forward to this. i know this has to be done. we as humans weren't meant to eat wheat or drink cow milk, and we haven't evolved enough to digest it properly. so they gotsta go. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
daily yoga is just something that i want. i feel more centered when i practice every day. my body feels like my own. my muscles respond so much better when they are regularly stretched. so keeping a daily practice is a no-brainer. and if i'm going to be perfectly honest, i've made a commitment to myself and to Odin. i vowed that someday (i left it open ended so there wasn't a time frame attached) i would be able to get into crow pose. crow pose scares me. scares the life out of me. and i will keep at it until i get it. i have to. vows are important. this isn't something that i can walk away from. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
four small steps. it doesn't seem so unobtainable when i see it written down. but i know it's huge. huge. this is my life huge. i can do it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
i think i can i think i can i think i can </div>

i love fall because it puts me in a cooking mood. admittedly, i've been cooking a lot more now that i've (tried) to commit myself to eating as little processed food as i can. seriously, it's hard yo. try to ingest less toxins, and you end up having to make everything from scratch because you can't be sure that what you're eating is really food. and with the cooler weather, soups are big for me. i love soups. i'm going to share a recipe for one of my favorite soups. and most of the ingredients have magical benefits as well. so not only are you getting the amazing real food benefits but you get magical benefits too. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Onion Protection Soup</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
you need:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
6 tbl butter</div>
<div>
4-6 large white onion (protection)</div>
<div>
3 tbl brown sugar</div>
<div>
2 tbl flour (prosperity)</div>
<div>
4 c beef stock</div>
<div>
salt (protection)</div>
<div>
fresh ground pepper (grounding)</div>
<div>
1/4 c rum</div>
<div>
1c grated mozzarella or provolone cheese</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
you:</div>
<div>
melt the butter in a large sauce pan, add the chopped onion and sugar, cook over medium heat until the onions are caramelized. remove from heat and the flour and slowly add the beef stock, stirring the entire time. bring to a boil, add salt, pepper, and rum. simmer for 20min, then ladle into bowls, top with cheese.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
serve with home made croutons drizzled with butter when ever you feel you need a little more protection. </div>
<div>
enjoy!</div>

seriously, i turn 39 and suddenly i'm falling apart. questioning my place in the universe, re thinking patterns that have been two decades in the making, you know, like ya do. it's not that i'm unhappy with my life, i love my life. it's just that i know that there could be something else i'm doing. it's not a feeling of being stuck, but of being.... un stretched. <br />
<br />
you know that feeling in yoga after your first mountain pose, that awesome powerful stretch? i feel like THAT feeling is missing, you know? that feeling your body has after a challenge. that. and it's not like i have a lot of extra time to stretch those muscles (except for literal), so really it leaves one feeling impotent to change anything. but it doesn't stop the feeling of WANTING the change. for example, here is a small sampling of the things that have crossed my mind to learn/do/attempt at change just this week alone:<br />
<br />
start yoga teacher training<br />
begin an herbalist course<br />
Italian cooking course<br />
start a website selling aprons in geeky fabrics<br />
winning the lottery<br />
learn nailbinding<br />
creating an art instillation project that is all copies of well known paintings but knitted.<br />
yoga flash mob<br />
<br />
<br />
but now, looking at the list, maybe it's not just the change that i crave, it's the learning. except for lottery winner and yoga flash mob, that's pretty much all the list is... learning something. maybe it's not my life i need to stretch, but my brain. <br />
<br />
something to think about at least.</div>

it's en vogue right now on facebook to list something each day that you are grateful for. while i'm not going to go that far, i will list just some of the things that i'm really truely grateful for here. <br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my children. they are smart, and beautiful, and amazing and bring me happiness every single day of my life, even if i don't see them every day.<br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my husband. it's no exaggeration to say that he saved me. i honestly would not be where i am, in any way shape or form without him in my life. <br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my parents. they are the most wonderful and giving people i've ever known in my life, and every charitable bone i have in my body comes from them. <br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my family, both blood and extended. they are my tribe and that is no small thing. <br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my faith. it gives me a sense of peace in a very turbulent world.<br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my health. when it boils right down to it, i own absolutely nothing else in this world but this body, and i'm happy that it is in (mostly) working order. <br />
<br />
while we're at it, i'm grateful for my herbalist. as much governmental weirdness as is surrounding the healthcare industry, i'm thankful that i have a way to take care of myself.<br />
<br />
i'm grateful for yoga. it allows me some time for myself. <br />
<br />
i'm grateful for wool socks. yes, this sounds flippant, but it really isnt. and if you don't understand that, you've never had a pair of hand knit wool socks, and i'm so very sorry.<br />
<br />
i'm grateful for my abilities. they are many and enjoyable.<br />
<br />
i'm grateful that i live in a place where i can find fresh real food when i need to. a lot of people cant.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
so obviously, i'm grateful for a great many things. what are you grateful, really grateful, for?</div>

my best friend only comes into town, if im lucky, once a year or so. we text message each other, and keep up in each others lives, but given my hate for talking on the phone, that's about all we can do. but she's coming into town this time for the Solstice for almost a week. i'm so excited i almost squeed myself. <br />
<br />
she is amazing and beautiful. inside and out. i've known her for well over half my life at this point, and she knows everything about me, at least everything worth knowing. we lead very different lives. where i settled down, she is truly a Rom spirit, driven by wanderlust. i don't envy her though, her path is different than mine. both beautiful, just different paths. i will love every minute she is here, and miss her terribly when she is gone. but i wouldn't change either of our lives even a moment. we are the way we are for a reason. its our wyrd. <br />
<br />
so i guess, Andromeda, this is my round about way of saying...... i made you yoga socks for christmas, and now i can give them to you in person. </div>

i need to stop punishing myself. i am not now, nor will i ever be a 90lb model. and honestly, nor do i want to. speaking simply from an aesthetic perspective, it's gross. speaking from a health perspective it's a death sentence. i'm a full grown woman, with hips and curves. my body has carried me almost 40 years. it has been my only constant friend, and only sometimes enemy. it has felt love and ecstasy, born children, attempted to feed them, and only in that has it ever truly been a disappointment. but being the size that i am isn't healthy either. neither extreme is good. and i'll be the first to admit. i love food. food is awesome. especially bread. home made bread is the bomb diggidy. i have two loaves cooling on the oven right now, and i can say with almost 100% certainty that if left to my own devices, i will eat an entire loaf. especially since i made sage rosemary butter. but i digress. and it's not like i don't like myself. i love me. i'm amazing. lack of ego is not an issue here. i'll be the first to admit, i'm narcissistic. but common, you've met me, wouldn't you be narcissistic if you were me?? honestly. <br />

but even i get all bogged down with the images of fitness. the six pack abs, the mountain biceps. the things that i will NEVER have time to obtain. there just aren't enough hours in the day to do it. i am a wife, a mother, a human worker. i cook and clean and work and am present with my children and husband. to do any more is.... unobtainable. because i cannot and will not NOT cook and clean and work and i will ABSOLUTLY NOT EVER NOT be present with my husband and children. they are more important to me than... well, me. as amazing as i am, they are more amazing to me. but the images don't stop. every magazine, every television show, every billboard.... images that the food company, the fitness industry, the clothing industry want to remind me that i'm not enough. i'm not thin enough. my hair isn't bouncy enough. my skin isn't clear enough. i am not enough. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
i. </div>
<div>
am. </div>
<div>
not. </div>
<div>
enough.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
but...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
it only works if i let it. this constant shrapnel of messages telling me how much i suck, only works when i allow it to. "no one can make you feel bad without your consent" - Eleanor Roosevelt. i like that quote. because it reminds me that i have the power to decide to let someone else hurt me. or not. and i'm choosing not. i can't stop the images from being out there. but i can stop me reacting to them by feeling bad. i choose to not feel bad. and i know it's not going to be a switch i flip and suddenly they don't bother me anymore. they will. they probably always will. but i just have to keep reminding myself that i am enough. i am mother enough, and wife enough, and ME enough. i am enough.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
i</div>
<div>
am</div>
<div>
enough</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
so i'll end this post, i'm going to unroll my yoga mat, and just be</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
enough. </div>
<div>

i've said it before and i'll say it again. the day after halloween is my favorite shopping day of the year. and for good reason. most of the decorations are half off, so it's easy and cheap to get yourself the hook up for next year. i'll admit that my home decor takes a not so subtle nod to the macabre. <br />
<br />
and then you find gems like this :<br />

this is (sideways and i can't figure out how to flip it) this years cotton table cloth in the halloween section of Target. 100% cotton, and oh so amazballs. the original price was $14.99, and i picked it up for just $7.50. and it's a huge piece of fabric. i forget the actual dimensions, but big. it IS a table cloth after all. and if you've ever been fabric shopping you know that any good measure of fabric is going to cost a butt ton more than $7.50, especially quirky fabric like this. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
so i picked it up. before the car even got out of the Target parking lot, i'd sent a missive to my Heather who is my go-to gal pal in the fabric/clothing design department. (everyone should have a Heather, they're great, i have a couple of Heather's) i automatically envisioned a skirt out of the fabric, i just wasn't sure what kind. Between Heather and myself, we decided on a pencil skirt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
now, i've never made a pencil skirt before, and Heather was there for me again. she pointed me <a href="http://marmaladekiss.blogspot.com/2011/03/high-waisted-pencil-skirt-pattern.html">here</a>, to an amazing tutorial on drafting a pencil skirt pattern. once the pattern was made, it was super simple to stitch it together. </div>

i honestly couldn't be more pleased with the results. the skirt has a kicky retro flair, i added a ruffled kick pleat in the back, and i can see me wearing it even though i'm not a skirty kind of gal. i think i'll even pick up another table cloth if there are any left. </div>
