Detox and wanderings

I am doing a seven day raw food detox. Interesting. It starts with a 24 hour water fast and then for the rest of the week I am supposed to eat only raw fruits and veggies. It seemed like a good fit for me for this week, in this season! It is nice to have all the fresh veggies now at the end of the summer. The website it rawdivas.com ;). So I am eating like a monkey this week. I do feel better. It seemed balanced enough, not asking for any crazy changes just eating fruits and veggies until satisfied. Sounds doable at least for a week.

Last year I let myself go WAY too much. WHY? WHY? I am so foolish. I have made so much work for myself and endangered my health. But today is a new day and the first day of the rest of my life, right? I am finally feeling settled again and motivated to change! Oh how I wish for a true change of habits and lifestyle that really only comes from the Lord.

The flu bug is gone here! Yay. I was thinking Sierra would wake up sick but she is OK.

I am reading an interesting article about money and missions. It is such a struggle to be a "poor missionary" in America, but a "rich foreigner" overseas. It is something that is so hard to deal with that I spend a lot of time thinking about it. This month there is an article about it in a magazine I receive. I am so thankful for it so far.
