So, here is part of my breakfast this morning…

It really is quite green……see…..

Anyway, I read about smoothies, especially green smoothies over here, and she got it from over here.Â
I’d also like to show you our latest treat/cookie/yummy goodness also via here from here…
May I present you with what we lovingly refer to as Gorilla Poop.

You can get the recipe at either of the links up there, but just to note, that I added the sesame seeds and flax seeds all by myself….’cause I’m all creative like that. Adds extra crunch (and fiber).
Also,
Today I will be giving blood for the first time in WAY TOO LONG. It must be since before I got pregnant with Nathaniel back in July 2004, and then with the almost constant getting pregnant and then getting un-pregnant and just not wanting to “give” anything but only reveling in my misery, I didn’t give blood once, even though I’m sure there was at least one opportunity to do so in there some where.
So, When Canadian Blood Services called to book my appt I said, “Sign me up, Baby!”
So, today at 2:05pm, I’m headed in to see if they’ll let me do my part to give back. I really don’t think I’m anemic, and I’m healthy, so it should just be business as usual.Â
I did an excellent job of doing nothing yesterday and I’m proud of myself for it. Things get a little bit busier for this week, starting with today, but hopefully nothing that I can’t handle.
See, I’m wanting to pare back and just “do life” at a slower pace. I don’t want to be so busy that I’m too tired for the things that are important to me.
So, I’ve already been thinking of the things that are important, but I’m going to be writing down some of the things that are really important to me and working towards those things. I know that it means letting go of some of the things that are “cluttering” up my life…not even in a bad way. Lots of the things I’m doing are good things, but they are not helping me to accomplish the things that I find “MOST IMPORTANT”, and at the end of it all I don’t want to look back and think, “Man, I did sort of a little bit of a lot of good things, but I was so tired and I never really did a “great” job of the things that I really wanted to” and so I’m re-prioritizing.
I’ll keep you updated on that list.
How about you? What things are really important to you? Do you have “stuff” cluttering up your life? Unnecessary stuff that you could let slide in order to really and truly focus on the things that you want to focus on???? Want to do a list – your list – with me?
I’ll leave you with one of my most important things…..Jeremy.
Here he is talking to Jon about the airport and going on the plane and can you hear the inflection in his voice?….too cute. Does he has a future in Television????  I obviously don’t have a future in video recording….it’s a little dark, but it’s just so darn cute….
