The Secret

Luv you, Katy Perry

Just got out of the movie, Katy Perry, Part of Me in 3D.

Each time I mentioned I wanted to see this movie, I got eye rolls, sighing or worse, "just tell us you are really going to see Magic Mike." 

BUT  . . .

It was so much better than I thought it would be and I was really excited to see it. That rarely happens. Usually when I am excited to see a movie, it a disappointment because I hype it up in my mind so much more.

Katy Perry is so wonderfully unique that I can't help but love her. She is girl next door pretty, fun. kind and so creative. The movie gave light to her amazing work ethic, her love of family and friends and her never ending beautiful heart.



I laughed. I cried. I felt inspired and I saw how other girls, young and old, see her as a woman superstar paving the way for us to finally come out and be ourselves. She embraces who she is even, if her parents don't live that way. She doesn't disgrace them or negate them either. They live in a (semi) harmony. Good for them. We should all be so lucky. I hope to b able to pass that feeling of embracing yourself for whoever you will be to my kids one day.

Her relationship with Russell Brand was part of the movie, which I was unaware of. I knew she was married to him, but didn't realize he was a point of topic. I could not believe the amount of effort she put in to her relationship. Now it is only one sided, from the movie, but she flew all over to see him and not once did he come see her. Amazing. I felt for her. Doing everything you possible can, sometimes just isn't enough. But she worked through and kept her head high. She amazes me.

Her music is spectacular too! I love many of her songs and to know that five songs on one record were #1 hits which is more than any other singer (other than Michael Jackson) is unbelievable. Good for her. To know she went through 3 record labels, no one knowing what to do with her til she ended at Capital.

90% Raw

I have been working on going raw for over a week now. Seems minimal, but I feel pretty good. So far. I did experience a HUGE day of food withdrawal. Sadly it was at work. LOL My poor boss. I lost it before lunch knowing I was going to have to eat my healthy lunch and all I wanted was crap. It was horrible. I was literally nuts for 20 minutes. Him pushing me to eat crap is what helped me choose to eat my healthy lunch. Ironic, huh? About two hours later, I felt the relief of normal again . (well semi-normal) So far I have struggled the most with making my lunch for work. I have to start making it the night before because I keep hitting snooze til I am running late. Damn. I have to get to sleep earlier. I am trying to leave leftovers in an easy to sort out container that I can just grab and go. My favorite part is grocery shopping. lol And enjoying my meals once I sit down. I am realizing that I am eating much slower and really tasting my food. I still read while I eat, but I notice I am...

Book Review: Unseen by Stephanie Erickson

Title: Unseen The Unseen Trilogy Book 1 Author: Stephanie Erickson Publisher: Pickles Press Publish Date: November 19, 2014 Goodreads Amazon It has been quite the ride this week with fantabulous book after fantabulous book!! Stephanie Erickson kept me in the book hangover with The Unseen. Mac has always been odd because when she was a little girl she realized she could read others thoughts. A doctor provided her with iLs. Mac wears this device on her ears. It plays music and drowns out the thoughts of others allowing her to concentrate. Ever since she was little, she has always wondered why she has this ability and if she is as alone as she feels. One day she sees a man watching her and from there, things change. She has hard choices to make and it will always change her. I am looking forward to the following books in this series to see if Stephanie Erickson develops the others in the Unseen that appeared occasionally while Mac was in training. I am so enamored with the back stories of...
