I woke up to this...
And this...
Is that not the cutest little pink colander of strawberries?
On Sunday, my best friend, his mom, and I all started
The Paleo Diet with the intention of improving our overall health and energy levels (and yah, NOT hibernating while unemployed in Denver). The premise is that we were never meant to eat cereal grains (wheat, rice, oats, and corn) or dairy, and that's the cause of many if not all of our degenerative diseases. I'm loving me some
lean protein,
fruits, and
veggies; and I really do have more energy (which isn't caffiene-induced)! I don't feel deprived in the least, and I have so much energy! Life without cereal grains is possible, at last (maybe) (hopefully).
This week, I started waiting tables (yep, waitress...holler) and I'm interviewing for a 9-5 temping at Cigna Healthcare. As Jason Aldean sings, "the world's wide open." While job searching, I've been having so much fun exploring Denver. I want to a Mammoth All-star game at the Pepsi Center. So fun!
I'm so excited for summer! In honor of the arrival of Daylight Savings Time I did a little spring cleaning. This is my little bathroom. It's so clean now I think you could eat off the sink. Check out the cowgirl Kleenex box in the corner from Target : )...$1.99 of pure happiness, it's the simple things!
I'm getting excited up for my first trip to the infamous Grizzly Rose on Friday for a little honkytonk and some two-step. I've been listening to Zac Brown "Free " on repeat, this may be my 2009 theme song, because "I don't have a job, I don't have a lot of money, but I'm free as I'll ever be." Can't wait to see him at Stagecoach 2009!
In Daisy news, she is fighting hard and is still feeling great. We don't know how long it will be until the cancer catches back up with her. I hope never! Right now she's at Grandma's house in Napa getting the best care available. She has a vet that does house calls, a big yard to run, bark, and grow in, and a grandma who makes her special extra-yummy cancer-fighting food, and I'm sure more toys than she can play with.
