Worth The Wait


So I recently became a member of Young Living Essential Oils.  I became a member just before one of the biggest growth spurts this company has ever known and RIGHT as holiday sales are ramping up.  Needless to say, I had to WAIT for my Starter Kit and I was NOT happy.  But then the kit came and I tried the oils.  Can I just say.... SOOOOOOOO worth the wait.  This isn't my FIRST bout of impatience:

Once upon a time in a land of tumbleweeds and super hot summers, a beautiful, charismatic and really quite skinny girl made her first trip to a well-known coffee shop. She met a friend there who was full of excitement and seemed to have a knowing glint in her eye. After 20 minutes our super hot, skinny, well-spoken, charismatic girl got a little irritated with the wait. "Why am I standing in a 20 minute line for a cup of coffee? Why would ANYONE wait for this? Don't these people have lives?" To which her friend turned to her and said, "THIS coffee is like none other. This is the very best coffee in all the land. Would you believe that every one of these people DO have lives and including this coffee makes it complete? It is not just coffee, it is a lifestyle. People come together because of this coffee, they form incredible friendships and even conduct meetings here. There are some who, like you, don't get it. Maybe it's because they've never tried the coffee, maybe they've tried it and haven't seen the light. But for those who tried it and get it, they now have a place to 'belong' and enjoy the very best. They have something to look forward to every day and have found something that makes them happy. They could try and manufacture this happiness on their own at home.... but NO ONE makes coffee the way this coffee company does and for all of us WAITING.... it is SOOOOO worth the wait. The drop dead gorgeous, funny, well-spoken, super-model thin, charismatic girl smiled and decided to wait in anticipation of the very best that she now believed was on it's way.
This is a mostly true story. Why WOULD everyone wait? Aren't we curious.... anticipating.... what everyone is waiting for? If everyone is waiting... could there be something to it? There was a time not so long ago that I didn't get it... I get it now. I REALLY, REALLY get it!!! And I've just replaced my morning coffee with Ningxia Red.
 
I am now a distributor for Young Living Essential Oils (#2065124).  I am such a believer that I decided that I needed to share it with the world.  If anyone reading this is curious about how essential oils can enhance THEIR lives.... please send me an email.  I would LOVE to speak to you:  fittertwitdoesoils@gmail.com   *** Young Living Essential Oils is expanding because of the growth... luckily the wait is no longer very long!!!

How exciting to be a part of that!

Maple Syrup vs. Honey

I did a post a while back about the nutritious sweetener for the lemonade on the Master Cleanse: maple syrup ! In fact, for quite some time now it has been my only sweetner (well, that and agave nectar... YUM!). But why maple syrup... isn't honey the magical sweetener? First, let's consider where both come from. One comes from a tree and the other comes from flowers, but is predigested and then regurgitated by a bee. Can you guess which is which??? hahahaha ! Really though, just the idea that an insect's already digested nectar from a flower lends to the idea that the nectar is already devoid of nutrients when it's vomited back up. Isn't that the whole point of digestion? To pull the nutrients from whatever it is you have ingested. So is it safe to say that honey is a bi product ? Or even a waste material? I would certainly call MY vomit a waste material... what about you? But beyond the gross visual I now have in my head of honey, I also have a real concern about ...

Curse You 21 Jumpstreet and Heed My Warnings

Ok, so I rented it and I loved it!!!  I hate that I loved it!  And I hate myself even more that I'm running out to buy it!  But watching this HILARIOUS movie remake reminds me of all the broken dreams and unanswered questions I was left with as a teenage girl while I manipulated and maneuvered my black and white TV antennae unavailingly to give me a clear picture of the hit Fox TV show. Back in 1987, Fox was a new station and did not come through very clearly on that trusty black and white and most nights it was as if my beloved Penhall was communicating to me from the other side through all that white noise.  Yes, I was in love with Officer Doug James Penhall and that teenage ritual would literally foreshadow the pain and heartbreak I would endure watching the end of 21 Jump Street the movie... and I'm STILL compelled to buy it.  If you haven't seen the movie yet, this post might come as a shock and should definitely be considered a spoiler for anyone readin...

Quite A Long Hiatus... But I'm Back!!!

What Happened????  I've been out of commission for a LONG time!  Well... there's a story!  Isn't there always???  Let me see if I can catch you all up quickly.  So once upon a time..... the real estate market crashed, this girl lost her career and started a blog to help focus on the better times that she knew HAD to be coming.  This blog helped distract, helped to focus and was an outlet for getting and doing things that money truly couldn't buy because she didn't have any to spend.  During this time I learned that I was strong, I was resourceful and, most importantly, I was capable.  But in looking back at this blog and the HUGE gap from my last post to today, I realized that I was grateful that I documented my journey and now wish I had never stopped.  So, back to the first question... what has been happening? 1.  I got my career back and actually landed my dream job. I have the UNBELIEVABLE honor of helping folks make their dre...
