Ages

Wow...

It's been ages since I've been back to blog world.

Sure, you can say it's my fault- it is!! There has been so much going on that it's really been more than a whirlwind...like a tornado, more like!

• school
• full time job!
• tests
• weddings
• events
• life

the usual!

Of course, there are so many things I want to incorporate in my blog...I wouldn't even know where to begin...

• writing
• art
• health
• counseling ideas
• travel
• travel tips and ideas
• events

Literally, no idea where to begin. 

I guess the beginning of the year would make sense...

We spent New Years with family...

In February, we took a little vacation:

Hit some favorite spots, like Puerto Rico^^

...and St. Thomas^^

...and St. Maarten ^^ for planespotting

and hit one new-to-us-island: Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands...

and visited the Baths^^, which was on this guys bucket list :)

There is so much more to tell!

But I have a lot to do before I jump back to work.

So, if you're reading this...

welcome back! 

i missed you!

i hope you're having a beautiful day,

a beautiful autumn,

and we'll talk soon <3

lotsa love,

Alkaline!!

From First Magazine:

"Go for 70% alkaline. Aim to fill 70% of your daily diet with nutrient-rich, alkalinizing foods. Top choices include all  veggies; citrus fruits; tomatoes; avocadoes; edamame; lima and navy beans; raw almonds; quinoa; spelt; buckwheat; olive, flaxseed and coconut oil, coconut milk and almond milk. Cook suggests using coconut or almond milk instead of cow's milk."


"For in a deep breathing break. Oxygen is alkalinizing to the body, so the deeper we breathe, the better we are keeping that pH balance," says Cook. "Oxygen feeds all our cells, but most people hold their breath without realizing it." For an alkalinizing boost, pause once every few hours to take a deep breath, feeling our lungs expand as you inhale through your mouth for 5 seconds, then exhale through your nose for another 5 seconds. Cont. for one."
