First of all, I feel ashamed of myself for not juicing the last couple months of 2012. I have proved to myself t is EASY! I'm drinking a healthy mixture of wheatgrass, parsley, cilantro, cucumber, cauliflower, broccoli, and tomatoes. It really is yummy. It does something to your psyche. You cannot help but feel good about it!!
I watched something on Netflix last night which helped me with my resolve to eat a plant based diet. It was called Vegucated. A vegan lady interviewed several people for her documentary and chose three. We go through their six week journey into veganism.
I was appalled. When I saw some of the ways packing plants treat the animals I had to hide my eyes. There are no laws requiring anyone to treat fowl with any humane practices. Also if an animal is raised to consume then the basic ways we are required to treat animals go out the window. It makes me sick how the animals are tortured in order for us to eat them. I cannot even talk about some of the horrible things I saw. I want to throw up.
It makes it so much easier to steer away from all that. They even called a "home town" farm and asked them some basic questions. Some of the organic farms and such are not much better than the "mills" they call farms. They treat animals like they would an ear of corn, throwing them into machines and such. Anyway, I cannot talk about it.
Watching shows like that and being educated helps one to turn to a better alternative. It was interesting, too, that they got into how much carbon footprint a cow makes. Very green in it's message but true non the less.
So all that about eating vegan or vegetarian.
Now organization. Chelsea is moving out so I will be able to move back in. Since we got new carpet there are still boxes packed which I shoved in the closet and out of the way so they could install the new. Now with her stuff gone, I will pretend I just moved into this new house and get to clean and organize. Believe it or not, I am truly excited. (Now girls, go easy on me, I'm gonna need some time to move in........as Chelsea will need some time to move into her new apartment.)
I dream of walking downstairs and having everything in order!!!!! This gets me so revved!!
