Dear all, just a quickie to let you know I was awarded custody of my boys but the final decision is february 4th. We both asked for social inquiries on each other but they may not be awarded as he didn't even ask for joint custody.
I am in the UK visiting family at the moment. Have been clobbered by the flu and am feeling less than charitable to my ex who I found out has put our house on the ma

Bad news!
Two boys before I was due to go to England, I received a court order from my ex, going for custody of the boys! I was thoroughly shocked...although I don't know why I should have been! It's to appear in court next friday. I quickly sorted out a defense lawyer paid for by the state as I have no revenue, that afternoon, fortunately fluent in English too. I think the od

Nearly there. Back smoking and eating cooked and have been unwell practically all the time I've been back on cooked - about 5 weeks now, cold, gastro, cold, now feel really lethargic, can't pick up the energy levels..sure it's the smoking, just makes me feel blahhh. I have been going to bed with the boys some evenings and in the afternoons and sleep right through. I think it's the emotional uphea

I went with my birthday money at the weekend to a raw food class in Lausanne, hosted by the glamorous and intelligent Amy Webster who has trained with Karen Knowler in the UK. It was great! Because I've been such an internet swot the last year about raw food, I didn't hear from her anything I didn't know already but it was so incredible to feel part of the bigger picture, to gain a wider perspect

Dear all,
finally something in me has broken, admitted defeat but for the right reasons at this particular time. I will have regrets either way but this is truly now a call for family and financial security. Following on from my ex's continued neglect, and verbal critisicm, my lack of money and difficulty speaking the language I can only take one action, and that is the decision to enjoy my l

This is great advice, thankyou and it doesn't do any harm to be reminded of this at any opportunity and I try and put it into practice. Even though I think I'm laying it on with a trowel, they blossom with it and it is never 'too much'. Praise is not heard enough. I always try and say something nice but like you say it needs practice for it to become habitual, I even found a site for kids for pos

Thanks Jodie,
Here's the deal. About a week ago, a few days before my 40th birthday party the weather got really really cold and I started to get really hungry, felt a bit weak and craved for warm foods and after the pumpkin soup, there was no stopping, lasagne, and pasta and all this rubbish. There are physical reasons and emotional reasons for this cessation at this point.

I'm sorry, but I just cannot bring myself to give myself a hard time about the remains of the pumpkin soup today I ate today. The excuse is that I work 10 hours three days week and come today, I was too shattered to go shopping for food, leaving me very limited eats. Instead I went to sleep. Nuts, dates, 3 bananas, unripe kiwis, I did try them. AND it's got cold. So was hungry, cold and t

I know Storm and Jingee have no problems, they all look fabulously healthy, but they seem to out in the open air all the time in sunny southern CA.

Ok so here's what I ate. Recently fruit is starting to taste divine and other food really tasty. I just can't find a way to enjoy greens in the same way, I have a handful of spinach in my smoothie usually every morning but find my usual combo of bananas in my morning is getting a little too heavy for me. Twice a week I munch broccoli. I don't really know what other greens to eat or how to

Guess what Kwan,
I'm adopted too, and so I can relate to your excitement. I had always tanned skin, dark eyes, quick temper, musical..so fantasised I was of 'mediteranean' origin. My parents both very British, mid brown hair, blue eyes, green eyes. We had an italian neighbour who I used to think about years after she died, she used to come to my mums house, talk nineteen to the dozen and smoke

yes, I've noticed this too, 42 days raw, about 90% raw like yourself, and in the last two weeks itchy upper lids. I've had it before but not for ages, an optician noticed and diagnosed it before. I have a feeling it's exacerbated by the three day a week job I've now started indoors, very little sunlight. I will start taking more fresh air during the week and some sunshine, it's really rainy here

A delicious salad of tomatoes, cucumber and red peppers, olives and oil and seasoning. Oranges and medjool dates. Tamari flax crackers.
I had three glasses of organic wine at Gil's bar. No excuses obviously but this is in preparation of my music charity night next week I have organised for my 40th birthday next saturday. It was such fun as I got to practice

I don't know what was going on with me today but I woke up early as usual, but this time from a bad long dream with a very nervous stomach. Gut was all tense and sensitive like a whole load of stress was there. I felt 'buzzy' all day, and had to sleep in the afternoon as I felt very tired. I recognised the sypmtons of buzziness as detox and attribute it to the hour of yoga I did yesterday

delicious salad of 4 tomatoes and cucmber today. I've discovered a Swiss seasoning which I have become addicted too. Apart from sea salt it has celery, paprika and a variety of other ground spices and it tastes delicious. Not sure how raw, but makes for a really enjoyable raw eat.I also had a cappacino today and that's because when my new employer asks me to join in with her on one around

I went to bed last night after midnight and was up at 7am, tired but with no usual irritability with the fatigue. Calm with my boys. They are starting to respond to me differently, of course, in a good way. Say like they are jumping off the fireplace for the fourth time I am really calm putting them on the naughty step and it has worked wonders me not getting cross. They know me cross too

return of the cold and tiredness. Have been tempted by cooked today, not quite sure how I resisted the boys left over sandwiches. Seem to have been hungry all day - out of flax seed crackers, ate loads of dried fruit but it didn't really hit the spot.

I want to tell you what happened following the quick clear up of my cold which has been a few days of amazing energy.

Suddenly, despite 5 hours sleep last night I can complete a full day without resorting to a nap or getting irritable with the boys. I had a spring in
