By the bootstraps.

Thank you guys for your comments yesterday - they mean so much to me.  It hard to think of being a success when I am far down in the struggle. 

But I have good news to report - Yesterday was a sugar free day!  Whether that was because of the cold I have or will power or whatever - its all good.  

I've been on a purging kick - not the vomit kind - but the extra crap in my life  - like getting rid of the dirt pile in my driveway, the leaf pile on my property and yesterday - my dog car.  

Yes, we had an old beater car/suv that I used every day to take the dogs to the beach - she only had to go 2 miles a day - was the inspection expired, sure - power steering - not so much - and a whole list of things wrong with it - but as long as she started we would limp our way to the beach everyday.  Yesterday she died.  
AT the beach. I didn't feel like putting another dollar into her - and didn't want to pay to have her towed.  I found a guy, through a guy and another guy showed up and gave me 300 bucks for her and is handling the whole situation.  
RIP trailblazer.... 
I love when shit gets done.  :)

That was awesome.  

Whats my plan for today?  
Take it EASY.
Protein shake for breakfast
Green juice for snack
Lunch - kitcheree

I'm still not watching the news - it makes a huge difference in my day!

So Shine on today - Even thought its about to snow here today - I will be focused on spring!  

 This is Jake - he is staying here for the week - I love him

Cash for the clunker!


 Adios  - you served me well.

  1. I feel so much better when I get rid of the "junk" in my life too. Cleaning out all my closets is a great way to distress myself :) Sorry the car died, but very happy you got rid of it so quickly :)

  3. Yay! I love hearing this good news! I always find it liberating to clear the clutter...somehow things just get easier when I do. Right now, I am working on the freezer and pantry. I think I was/am a food hoarder!

  5. Happy to see you are feeling a lot more positive. We have a dog car too, I thought I was the only one...well I guess I am now.

    Looks like Jake could use some walks on the beach.

  6. Hey Vanessa, glad you're feeling better! Jake is adorable (I agree he could use some walks on the beach ;)). My blog got hacked by someone in China so I started a new one at http://laurarunsalatte.com I've been home sick for a week so there hasn't been any running or anything exciting going on, but I have been trying to make it look good, heh.

  7. Hi, I'm relatively new to blogging and was just recently banded mid December of 2012. I hope you'll pop by and check out my blog sometime. And I'm glad you're feeling better and things are looking up. I read your last post too and I agree that even though rock bottom is rock bottom and can kinda suck, it's still a starting point and there's really no place to go but up and it's always exciting to start again.
