Today is my birthday and it was 95 degrees! I had watermelon juice with lime to keep me cool. The weather here in Portland Oregon is Hot Hot Hot, so I did not light any candles! Yesterday it was 107. Just drinking juices and eating a little fruit is all I felt like having. I seem to be tolerating the heat, and feel somewhat energized, a little like a slow flowing river.
Today I'm making a promise to myself to blog at least 3 times a week. I want to get used to this whole computer thing. Sounds funny like someone making a resolution to exercise. Of the two I believe exercise is the most important. Truthfully, since I have moved to Portland I have not found my rhythm. I'm looking for a place to take dance classes. My favorite forms of dance are hip hop, jazz, lyrical, with some African mixed in. At the moment my ribs are a little sore from a boogie boarding accident that happened at the Oregon Coast about 2 weeks ago. I hope the green juices, and my Bio Mat help heal it up soon so I can start dance when my daughter goes back to school.
Back to why I want to Blog. I want to keep giving you insight into what a raw food life style is like on a daily basis. Even someone who has been living this way for 10 years has her ups and downs, and sometimes the downs are winning. I will be honestly and openly sharing with you what triggers the downs and how I manage to pull myself up again. I am developing a practice that opens my eyes to the strength and creativity I have inside. I know that with a little love and support we can all create a healthy and vibrant life style for ourselves.
Well I thought the sun had not gotten to me, but here I am with my brain in slow motion.
Before I sign off I want to tell you about my new Meetup Group. It's called....Nourishing Elements! Here is the link so you can check out what I'm up to with my new friend Pandora!

Funny, My body is not tired but my brain is ready for bed.
Sweet Summertime Dreams!
