When the Fridge is Full....

....when there is an abundance of produce, I feel so drawn to it, so eager & able to stay on track with raw...
...when there is little left, little variety, no favorites, I struggle to stay raw, to eat what's left, & start giving in to the call of the cooked stuff still in the house...
I keep attempting to get it outa here, but still, it sneaks in through the back door...ok, I only have one door here in my apartment, but ya know what I mean...
Right now, I have enough produce to eat all raw all week, for both of us...but Hannah still wants more than that with her recess & lunch, I need to get her used to more produce again, her taste buds have adjected again to the other stuff...& I need to start making some yummy raw recipes again!
I've decided to ask a friend to hold the weekly grocery money for me & give it to me on Wednesdays, when we go out & do errands, including shopping. I keep setting it aside, but then dipping into it, for various things, like the corner store & McDeath's sometimes...then not having enough produce to stay raw, & do smoothies daily, which really helps eliminate cravings for cooked. Dumb, huh? So no more!
I'm finally getting to bed a little earlier, & soon, I won't be getting up to get her out the door to school on half a night's sleep, & then no more naps, & THEN things'll get a little easier...like exercising more! Until then, I gotta get used to this lifestyle change! YAWN!
Have an excellent day tomorrow (today?),
& please remember to be gentle with youself~
Just as the Bible promises His mercies are new every morning, so should ours be, to others, & to ourselves~
