11/6/09 Lighting, Scat, and Nature's Market

Again . . . I wake up listening to the Angelites. So, I got right up and went right into the shower. I was on my Hatha Yoga. I brought it and did some poses that I haven't been able to do in some time. That was a great energizing feeling.

I was down for breakfast early, lucky me. As soon as I put up my coffee, Dave from Greenfield Lighting called. He said he was coming in 15 min. Dave is not an on time person--he's creative. So I had plenty of time for breakfast. He installed a dimmer on the super bright bedroom light

(Luke works in the bedroom. It's like his den. He needs the extra light to see his music.) Now we can have it light or bedroom soft.

While Dave was here, I asked him if he could up date my bathroom lights which are those drop balls from the 70's. They don't give enough light and they're gold. Dave is putting in recessed lighting. I'll have enough light and it will look neat and modern.

Dave is very, very busy. He is out of town, working on amazing projects, more than he is in town. His company brings him home for big holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. Luke and I lucked out because we got to Dave while he was in town. Is he worth waiting for-yes.

Daniel is our Scat guy. Since his company has been spraying for us --4x a year--I don't worry about pests of any kind. Also, Daniel is a neat person. We have great conversations about life, and kids and religion.

When the guys were gone, I made my lunch and got ready for N.M. (Nature's Market).

The day was simply beautiful. The air was slightly chilled with the warm sun of fall. I love that contradition of the cool and the cozy. I kept the window open when I did N.M's banking(at the drive thru ), so I can breath the clear, clean air of fall and try to hold on to nice weather as long as possible.

My new shedule is so much better for me. I get to N.M. at 2:00 pm, and I'm home by 5:30 or

6:00. I can fix dinner for Luke, and we can have fun couple's time. We like to watch Jeopardy together.

Okay. So the Angelites are winning more and more in my daily life. But, I am still struggling with old patterns in terms of my eating habits.

The difference between now and all the rest of my life is that I'm seeing the patterns--clearly. Sometimes, a person can talk about the truth but they really don't experience it. They don't get it on the inside. Now, I'm getting it that I eat when I'm very tired, or very stressed. I used to say those words; now, I get them inside. I've named the negative "fat" (tamasic) voices "Impskies"--like little imps that whisper negative thoughts and deeds to you.

I was tired at the end of the workday at NM. The impskies said, "Eat something, you'll have more energy." Then they began to work on what I should eat--chips, sweets . . . . I fought back.
