The Raw Vegan: Part XXXVII, The Aftermath

Date June 29, 2008

After many hours, we were called back into the courtroom. DH went to the defendants’ table while his nephew, DD and I reclaimed our seats in the spectator’s section with the tell-tale bit of trash still on the floor. In all that time, it still hadn’t been cleaned. The jury filed in then there was [...]

Update Number Three

Date June 29, 2008

“They” say that things come in threes. As I see it, this will be my last personal update until the regularly scheduled one on Friday. You never know, though. I may pop up with something else before the day is ovah. That last word is Iron Chef talk. One more thing I took away from [...]

Report on Things I Forgot and Current Conditions

Date June 28, 2008

I am writing this with battery power on w.bloggar. Out of necessity and the time factor, I can’t make this long. The battery is already down to 85%. The lights went off at 7 am, not long after I got up. Normally, they go off and then almost immediately come back on but it wasn’t [...]

It’s Friday and I’m stocked!

Date June 27, 2008

If I couldn’t go anywhere for a week I’d be okay, I believe. I have enough food to do me even without bananas (which I have, too). The bananas would be the critical thing but it isn’t winter. It’s SUMMER! and with that comes all the delicious nutritious salivary gland stimulating FRUIT! Oh, okay. We’ll [...]

The Raw Vegan: Part XXXVI, I’ll see you in Court!

Date June 26, 2008

Back when DH was incarcerated, his nephew and I spent so much time running errands it could end up being all day. I’d gotten in the habit of eating a HUGE breakfast because no telling when we would be able to break for another meal. It might be 8 pm when we got home with [...]

Happy Anniversary to ME!

Date June 24, 2008

Amazing, isn’t it, that a confirmed cooked food addict could be celebrating three years eating raw food today! And it’s ME! That makes it even more incredible. This is how I spent my special day. Instead of bounding out of bed, I luxuriated for 15 minutes after the alarm went off. After I had my [...]

The Raw Vegan: Part XXXV, Going Shopping

Date June 22, 2008

No surprise, I didn’t have much say about hiring/not hiring a lawyer. If it had been up to me, I would have prayed a lot and gone with a court-appointed attorney. However, DH was warned by his former fellow inmates not to go that route. So…we were headed for more expense and greater stress. Fortunately, [...]

The Last Day of my Stay-cation

Date June 20, 2008

I have half an hour to write about my week’s activities. There won’t be a lot to report since I’ve been home most of the time and TRYING to get into a cleaning mode. The house is better than it was but it still isn’t where I’d like it to be. But is it ever? [...]

The Raw Vegan: Part XXXIV, Looking Back

Date June 19, 2008

One of the hazards of publishing chapter after chapter instead of submitting a completed manuscript is there are inevitably times when it strikes the author that lots was left out. The fact is, if every single memory were recorded, it would multiply the words exponentially. I wouldn’t be able to write it all and no [...]

I’m getting a late start

Date June 13, 2008

Necessarily, this will be short. Last Sabbath, the pastor was under the weather so his wife had the service. I told her it was fortunate they have two preachers in the family. They are both gifted speakers. Later, there was no lying in the sun for me. It clouded up and storms danced around the [...]
