Green for life

I've ordered the book "Green for Life" by Victoria B something. She's from Russia. Anyway. Today after running six miles I had a healthy smoothie with rich protein.

I bought Kare, celery, carrots, Ferrell, spinach and made a smoothie when I got home. Not so good. I'll be getting the book soon and then will follow a receipt and I'm sure it will be better. Hell, I could have drank a V8.

So, I am trying to eat lots of greens. Hey, I have only one body and it's pretty hot for sixty so why not? I want to be the best I can be. I look like I'm in my forties anyway. Oh yes, I do. I deserve the right to brag because I work very hard at keeping fit. I'm in a class of my own. Totally! The natural looking blond hair color helps. I take vitamins for my hair and I can tell the difference even with swimming almost every day. The secret - wet your hair in the shower before you dip into the pool. Yes, fill your hair shafts with "less" chlorinated water from the water so the more chlorinated water in the pool can't be absorbed. If not your hair will feel like straw and you have to use lots of conditioner. Someone only had to tell me this once and a light bulb lite because it made perfect sense to me. That's what I get for being a good listener.

Where was I. I work out and do yoga too. And last Saturday I got a very nice compliment from a 36 year old "You look hot in those running shorts!" Hey, it doesn't get any better than that people! I did like the shorts when I tried them on and I bought a nice, although cheap, v-necked t-shirt which is much more slimming. I may have to go back and get it in black too. The grey is nice. The white is okay but thin. Anyway thank you universe for me being me.

I am my own person. I have to be. I'm the only one like me that I know. I feel wonderful and I thank the universe everyday for all of my many wonderful gifts and blessings of good health, and pain free activity. If I really try I can get better yet! I'm sixty without complaints! Magical!

So, just for fun - I'm going to try to get even hotter and healthier. See how one compliment feeds on itself. I have always been like that through the years - someone gives me a compliment and I feel like trying even harder to be better. Way to go! Think I"ll throw out the soda and have a small glass of V8.
