ONE POT, TWO POT, ORANGE POT, BLACK POT

It's been a busy week for me, despite the lousy weather and lack of energy on my part.

I got creative and started dying more of the alpaca fleeces I have accumulated in my garage.

I am totally out of white, so I need to be  creative in choosing colors to dye over the browns and grays.

I also had some yarn that was too white for me, so I used my designated electric fry pan to dye that a luscious raspberry.

My first attempt in the orange pot was for a peach color.  It looked like sewage, so I changed it to turquoise.

I can't dye too much at a time because I only have 4 drying racks, and with this cold weather, it takes several days to dry.

Once these are dry, I will add them to the boxes and boxes of clean/dyed fiber I have waiting to card.  I love blending the colors.

Meanwhile, I am busy experimenting with new foods on the HHA program.  I made chicken bone broth in my instapot yesterday.  I have to drink at least one cup a day.  I made beef bone broth last week, but I don't like the flavor as well.

Last night I made FAT BOMBS.  Oh, my gosh, what a wonderful treat.

But, you can't eat just one.

I've been organizing and cleaning out my garage.  That seems to be a never ending chore, but I am making progress.  The local thrift store has opened, so I took a car load to them today and I feel such relief.  Now I have room in my car for more donations.  

Oh, WHAT A WEEK

11 days ago, I joined HASHIMOTO'S HEALTH ACCELERATOR program.  I'm really excited about this because it offers real healing.

It seems like I spend all of my time shopping, cooking, and eating.  Last week was a 10 hour eating window with 3 meals and 3 snacks.  It seemed as if I was constantly eating.  As soon as I finished one meal and cleaned up, I was beeped to have a snack.

I'm adjusting.  The hard part is getting products I need since I don't have the energy to go out shopping.  Thank goodness for Instacart and Amazon.

So on Friday, I had the not so delightful surprise of developing a yeast infection all over my body.  This is apparently my body detoxing.  It was miserable.  Fortunately, I have my own personal Health Concierge, and she was quick to tell me to bathe in Sea Salt and Apple Cider Vinegar, a cup of each.  What a relief.  I have found that it also relieves the anxiety and agitation I wake up with every morning.

I received this delightful photo of my grandson wearing my Dad's flight helmet on Saturday.  They were watching The Right Stuff, and my son remembered he had it.  

And here is my Dad.  It thrills me to have these two pictures.  I'm so happy that my son and grandson  are also interested in the other flying paraphernalia I have of my Dad's.  I've been told that he could fly any plane that was presented to him.  He was a dive bomber pilot in WWII and flew SBDs.  During the Korean War, he was in Japan and flew helicopters.  Time to dig it all out since they will coming for a visit soon.

Last week my new chaise lounge arrived.  I haven't had something like this for years.  Seems I never had the time to just chill and relax.  Well, I seem to have plenty of time for that now and I will take great advantage of this.
