Between sleeping and dreaming I had this vision so I wrote this to remember and describe it.
Little girl
With your cartoon head
Floating down the stream
On a little piece of tree
Hey little girl in my dream
I know you are everyone
And no one knows
Little comic book body
In between the trees
You seem to know
That you have nothing
Little girl
You know you have everything
Even with your pretty dresses
You have nothing
Little girl
Even with your ebb and flow
You have everything
Big comic eyes
You have nothing
And so you glow
Free in your basket
Free in your silence
Free in your going
Go go go
And be nothing inside
The everything
*20 ounces water
*small bowl of Cacao Crunch raw cereal, sliced banana, homemade almond milk
***Workout: P90X Legs & Back, 20 minutes bike cardio, AbRipperX***
*Same as above: more of my fave cereal
*Kale salad from Yummy Tummy with 2 dried figs
*Asparagus and dulse salad from Yummy Tummy
*Dessert: peanut butter, sliced banana & local raw honey sammie on sprouted toast!
Delicious!
.......XOXO
I've got my face
And things to say
Waiting on a butterfly-blue
I thought I'd want the city
or a jungle
or a pineapple
And I do
To understand
To be heard
Sweet tooth Thursday!
*Cacao Crunch Cereal with home made almond banana milk, sliced banana and blueberries
Ran out the door with E & A for E's first dentist appointment! Then ran errands downtown, SW, then Sellwood, SE and lastly home. Then went out for a play date at the park. Later E said, "You know what I know? Girls are crazy. Boys are a little bit but girls are really crazy." Soooo funny.
*2 small Cowgirl cookies from Prasad- they are my cookie perfection: chocolate chip, peanut butter & oatmeal vegan & gluten free!
*Coconut water
***30 minutes of a Tracy Anderson dvd and 30 minutes cardio workout***
*Coconut water
*Bliss salad from Prasad. Love this salad so much. It's filled with beets, quinoa, figs, currants, greens, ginger dressing, carrots & walnuts!
*dessert: Cacao raspberry raw vegan cheesecake from Prasad with fresh blueberries and sliced banana. Tried SO hard to save some for tomorrow. Could not pull it together, Ate It All. Yum.
Later I'm sure I'll have some water and probiotics and maybe a small snack so I'm signing off for now! Off to see a special screening of Toy Story 3 in 3D!
Gooooooooodnight Voxers!
Apologies if this bores you and cheers if it doesn't!
