Big news

I'm going back to school. Very soon. I start on January 9th.

I'm going to attend the Jerrylee Beauty College and prepare for my state license in manicuring with the required 400 hour course. There are several motives for this new direction. Firstly, it would be nice to have some skill that I can use part time and pay for the kid's schooling. Secondly, nails are a lot of fun. What really got me motivated was seeing J's grandparent's feet. They have been so woefully neglected and thus really uncomfortable for them both.

I have a crazy idea about trying to start a nonprofit group to provide nail care for seniors. But, I need my license first. Wish me well, and send all the good luck vibes you can spare.

30 days results

It's actually been closer to 45 days now and it's gone very well. I've definitely noticed an increase in my energy level and I just feel better overall. I haven't had any RA flareups which is a great improvement. I plan to keep up the five servings of fruit or vegetables a day indefinitely.

I talk big...

but when push came to shove, I went back to Best Buy for Ian's present.
