Poll dancing class!

That's right.. you read that correctly. Poll dancing class! There was a groupon for it, and I've heard from multiple people how fun it is, and a fabulous workout. So Steph and I got the deal, and tonight was our first night doing it.... And indeed.. it was fun and a fabulous workout. The teacher there was awesome! So sweet and cool and BUFF. I was worried everyone there would be stuck up bitches (for lack of a better term), but that was so not the case. Everyone was laughing and giggling and having a blast. And oh my goodness, what a workout! My arms are shaking.. My ass is sore. My hands are sore. It's fantastic.
We have 4 more classes to go! Wheeeee!!

Napping Alien dream...yet again...

What's with the aliens in my dreams!?!?

So this was a napping dream, which are always bizarre and interesting... And unfortunately just too bizarre to explain the beginning stuff... though I'll try: There was this guy (who was Sylar from Heros) who was kidnapping girls... and if felt a little post apocalyptic. Steph and I were the first... and somehow he managed to do it by himself without a car or ropes.. Just him and a gun. Details are SUPER vague. But he was taking us somewhere... And I had to go through a bunch of locked doors.... and finally came to this nice reception area. The first thing I saw of the receptionist was that she had 6 fingers, with acrylic red and white nails... And then I realized those finger tips grew from only three fingers.... each one having two finger tips... And then I looked at her face, and she had three eyes and fair skin... And thin, tight lips. She almost looked human, save for the odd number of appendages and eyes. She was the receptionist for a type of brothel/underground strip club..and we were at the head quarters, and my assignment was to make a new, interesting poll for the strippers.
She casually gestured with a hand as she led me to where I'd be working, "A poll with invisible dildos or something like that..." (I'm not kidding... she said that).

And then I woke up.

The end.

Time for bed... hehehehhehe

It's been a month.. Time for an update!! :)

So what I've been up to for the month of June:

• Carver ended splendidly. Our final concert was SO much better than last time.. And I'm looking forward to next year! I've had quite a few kids come up to me asking about choir.
• Steph and I went to visit Jess to see him (and his play). It was a fabulous girly road trip bonding time, and lots of fun. The only bummer was the director of Jess' play made some terrible choices and really botched the whole thing.... But alas, there was nothing to be done about that.
• Jessica and Patric got married.... Dave married them (and it was FANTASTIC) and Jon sang "She's your Queen to be" and it was hilarious. I filmed, of course. The three of us stayed in a hotel and good times were had all around... The only person missing was Loon. :P 
  
• I sat at a table with Kellen and his woman, and Upa! and her man.. and told them of my life story and all the things I'm doing now. They all totally loved it.
• I also talked with Brandon and Matt about the sulfur saga, and they were SO into it and fascinated and had some of their own stories to share. Those guys are fabulous to hang out with... I should invite them over. :)
• The curtains are almost done!! I've been working my ass off on them! And oh the stitch witch! I've already used 5 rolls and need at least one more. So much stitch witch... so.... much.....

I have no idea where my platelets are... I actually don't have ANY bruises... Which is amazing, and makes me want to check them... just to see where they are..... hmmmmmm.

I've gained a little weight back. Things got so busy the beginning of the month, I kind of fell off the wagon and have been eating WAY to much cheese and protein bars. But I'm getting back into the groove and feel better. Though I really need to cut out the salt by 50%, if not all together.... I feel like I'm just inflamed everywhere. My bladder is giving my problems (not feeling relief when I pee). As well as my knee..which is preventing me from dancing. *sigh* Lots to take care of... Oh getting older... it doesn't get easier, so they say. And I believe them.

Scott just walked in and gave me a back rub.... I was literally drooling by the end. That was fabulous. 

 

Still working out the balance

Weight and health wise, I was doing really good there for a while... but on Robs birthday I ate too much sugar, and that off set things. More bruises, and I'm having a hard time getting things into balance again. Thankfully, work is almost done... and then I can really focus on exercise and getting things together.  Carver's graduation is less than two weeks away (including their final concert).

I forgot to blog when I took another dose of the 1M Gal. Phos (about three weeks ago)..... but it didn't seem like it did anything. I'm pretty sure sugar has a LOT to do with it... and the rest is me needing to work out all the emotional crap that's been trapped and built up over the years.... and learning to love all the "wrong" parts of myself.

Besides that, things are great. This past holiday weekend was the most productive weekend EVER. I pulled out all the vines in the backyard (though the roots still need digging out)... put up the curtain rod in the backroom, and started cleaning the garage (and built the tool chest).

I've been dreaming more again, which is quite nice... I feel like a sleep better. Though of course I don't remember them... Though I remember I had another alien dream.... But can't recall what happened...

Okay... I'm house sitting and just hanging out now. Time to go home and keep cleaning. :)

Wildest. Dream. Ever

The beginning of this is reeeeaaaaallly hard to explain.... but it basically felt like I was moving through time and space.. like I was floating and everything was whizzing past me. And I was aware of what was going on in terms of dreaming and being asleep, but also aware that I wasn't exactly sure what was going on. At one point I was on a table, and lights were shinning in my face and it was hard to see... but then I saw an alien... And then thought to myself, "Seriously?.... I'm being abducted or something? Seriously?... This is really happening?" I wasn't scared.... more like really amused and wanted to *facepalm* at the same time.
Then I was passed out on a floor....slowly waking up. It was very dark, with no lights at all in the room I was in... But I could see a HUGE rocket engine out side a large window to my right and thought, "Am I on a rocket ship?? Is it about to take off?" But then I stand up, and the engine tilts, and I look forward and see this absolutely enormous window... and then I see a little over half the earth as the ship I'm in tilts down...and there was lots of space and stars around as well... and other large space ships. Yeah.. I was on a huge alien space craft... looking down at the planet. It. Was. Incredible. It felt so real and was just amazing to see... So totally wild, I really just don't have the words to explain it. I'd like a continuation of that dream. :)

On a totally different note, I need to write in my journal more.... There are some things that have come to fruition that I would have TOTALLY forgotten about if I hadn't of written them down. :) Really cool stuff. :)

M1 for the win?... We'll see....

Got my 1M in the mail yesterday and took a dose in the evening... so we'll see what happens! (I banged my elbow the other day as we were madly cleaning the house and getting it ready for a dinner party, and it left a typical nasty purple bruise... but seems to be healing faster than normal... So my count doesn't seem like it's out of the low 30's yet, but at least it's not lower than that (or at least that's my guess on the matter)).

Life is still fantastic. :) All my jobs are going well, and the school year is almost over. I love teaching, but I am REALLY looking forward to a break! (A looooong break!!) I'm loosing all but 2 of my choir kids at Carver... so that'll be interesting. I reeeaaalllly need to have Freshmen and Sophomores in this group, or it will never improve or reach the potential that it could be.

Impromptu (and informal) photo shoot

Things are going great with Scott and Steph, and it's great to be so open about it... And to have so much support from everyone! (even if they don't quite understand how it could work...or why). Everyone is commenting on how great I look and wondering how much weight I've lost... which is interesting, cause I've only lost about 5 lbs (It was more..but I gained a little back....whoops!).  But it's not just weight loss... it's just my whole well-being has changed (for the better). Even my periods are totally dead on regular and I bleed a LOT less! Soooooooo nice to have normal periods!!



I was reading back through old posts, and saw that last year (around this time), I had a feeling that something was coming...but didn't know what. And low and behold, only a few months later..look who I meet! Interesting...... This is why I like having a blog....cause I had totally forgotten about that! Of course.. it only works if I actually write in the blog. *facepalm*. But being super busy is a good thing... I'm feeling very productive, accomplished  and..well... am making money! (Though owing $2,500 on taxes was NO fun. No fun at all)

Why are fireworks going off outside? This is the second night not.... and there is nothing going on holiday wise... At least not that I know of.....

Count up just a bit..... with no h-pathy.... And life :)

Last Wednesday I checked my count cause I wanted a starting number before I took a 1M of my remedy. And my platelets were at 27!!! (Which is pretty good from where it's been.... I think being strict with NOT eating gluten helped). I had stopped the LM all together cause I felt so DUMB and out of it, I could hardly take it.
As it turns out.... I only had 200C.... so I took that, and am trying to order the 1M (though the site is not working when I click on it....and I'm not sure why.....)

On a totally different note, pretty much everyone I know is exclaiming how happy and different and wonderful I look. :) And I'd say about 90% of the folks I know support my new found life and living situation. My mom was pretty upset at first, but she's coming around.... and dad was totally fine (and not surprised, apparently.. which I find awesome and hilarious).
My life is really coming into balance ...on every level....and it feels great! Now if only my platelets would get on board!
