hehe.
a telemarketer called, it showed an 800 number on the caller ID it said, "HOMEHELP" -- or essentially -- it said that, but only what it could fit into the caller ID space (so minus some syllables)
--
home help
i took the phrase in for a moment, and i thought, "Oh! It's God calling!"
hehe.
that's the only thing that can help homes truly.

[03 Mar 2009|10:37am] |
This time
[you were [& can be] golden] [you have the chance to] [be someone who sticks to their chosen set of morals*]
Please don’t turn away for good This time Please don’t turn away for good This time the time is right to take a step toward the light Please don’t turn away for good This time
Find a place worth holding And don’t grow cold Though friends are folding We all make mistakes The blessings come when we start over
Please don’t turn away for good This time Please don’t turn away for good This time
This time The time is right To take a step toward the Light
Please don’t turn away for good This time
We don’t have the time Not to be Thankfully pursuing Jesus Let’s begin before today ends
This time the time is right
This time Please don’t turn away for good This time Please don’t turn away for good This time the time is right To take a step toward the light Please don’t turn away from good This time
This time

*I can’t quite make out what he says in the first part, so that is my interpretation, and general observation of life.

I love Joy Electric. They have helped me more than any band ever has & ever will. If only for the fact that they are the only band I have continual faith in. Ronnie Martin is friends with Jesus & I can tell because I am friends with Jesus too.
Or I am trying to be the most compassionate friend that I can be and if I am not I am crying because I could be or at least acknowledging that I'm not.
I need to make my own songs, though. hehe.
hehehe.
i have an idea. :)

[31 Jan 2009|03:00pm] |
well.
my new calendar is working out well.
i look noticeably thinner. i have eaten reasonably for 3 days straight & it's not that early today & i haven't gone crazy yet.
i ate an egg, a pancake, 1/2 cup of garbanzo beans, some cherry tomatoes, an apple, a large banana. & i think that's it.
actually...
you know what? what i consider "reasonable eating" is absolutely perfect eating.
noticeably thinner is ridiculously small.
but still nowhere near where i am going to be after i am noticeably training with any consistency.
^^^ i wrote that earlier in the week, but didn't post it.
today... was a very nice day. except for my own failures with personal frustration.
however,
dear lord, i am the most fortunate creature that ever walked the earth.
i got 4 bell orange bell peppers (for $1 at the 99 cent store) , 2 big roma tomatoes,(40 cents from the fruit stall at the flea market) one beautiful pink lady apple,(30 cents from the fruit stall) 2.5 pounds of small pink lady apples,(99 cent store) 3 big romaine lettuce hearts, (99 cent store) an avocado, **DOOMED DRESSING**,(stolen!, but don't tell jesus or my mom!) a BEAUTIFUL loaf of whole grain PLUS bread (90 calories, no high fructose corn syrup, *5G* of fiber!!), ($1 from the AMAZING GROCERY STORE at the flea market) AMAZING 100% JUICE: GRAPE & ACAI BERRY!!!, ... ($1.50 from the AMAZINGGG grocery store at the flea market) 1/2 pound of almonds! (stolen! shh!)
SIX BOXES OF TEA (stash tea, good earth tea, etc etc!) ($4 for ALL SIX! from the great grocery store at the flea market)
1/2 POUND TURKEY -- ($1.50) from the lesser, but still great mega-meat&cheese grocery store at the flea market)
i had a lovely lovely lovely picnic with my boyfriend. my sandwich had romaine lettuce, roma tomatoes, 1/2 a laughing cow light cheese wedge, 1/2 the avocado, 1/4th pound of turkey (lol, 100 calories worth, the only part part was that it was a toooon of sodium!), mustard, & the lovely 5g 90 calorie bread. (THE SLICES ARE HUUUUUUGE, it's the best bread ever! :D)
i tasted the juice, and it tastes very very interesting!! if they have more of it next weekend when i go to the flea market again (it's only on weekends) -- i will buy them out of the juice. it is grape juice, but you can definitely taste the acai that's in it... it's a bitterish sort of twinge, but definitely -- not as... "bitter" as cranberries. acai berries are interesting....
www.amazon.com moves TONS AND TONS AND TONS of acai berries. people like to put them in their oatmeal & smoothies & muffins.
it was $1.50 for 4 eight ounce servings. way less than 50 cents a cup! and 8 ounces of this stuff would sweeten .... like... 48 ounces of tea.
hahaha. (that is what i will mostly use it for, most likely, unless brandin chugs it
and i will make sure he absolutely does not, because 8 ounces of that stuff is THIRTY GRAMS (actually, it's 31g!!) -- of SUGAARRR.)
i had a goal weight of 128 for today, and i would've made it if yesterday i wouldn't've gotten a little bit depressed & ate some toast (before really spiralling out of control, hahahahahha)
the spiral didn't involve eating, but that toast honestly i know made me not be 128 pounds this morning.
i didn't care. i fit into my jeans. the scale means nothing. i ate all perfect this week except for less than 300 calories of satan brownie. way earlier in the week.
way replaced from now.
this was a transition into perfection i am insisting i maintain.
i don't know if i talked about it here but around a week ago, i was looking at myself in the mirror there's a mirror across the room from my bed, if i am on all the way as much as i can over on my side of the bed i can see myself in the mirror
a week or 2 ago, i almost looked okay sitting down, i mean my stomach -- looked almost okay (let's get for real, i've lost 170 pounds and even though i weigh 129 i'm not a victoria secret model quite yet)
today, i looked in the mirror in the same way, and woah. 1 week of clean eating = improvement.
maybe it's only 1000% that i was absolutely not bloated.
and for REALLLLLLLLL for the last 4 out of 6 days --
i have eaten the 3 square meals (protein, fat, fiber all attended to!) with 2 snacks.
perfect. and i guess the instant reward is -- improvement.
the other 2 days out of the last 6, btw, that i wasn't perfect... i didn't eat anything bad -- or even go over calories -- i just didn't follow an exact meal plan, and kind of ate "whole foods" all day, ...
it's kind of hard to believe. i was thinking about it, and thought -- am i just being silly?
and i thought about it some more, and... there's no way i would think that i looked smaller i think mostly negative everything if only for the reason that the truth really mostly is negative
-- why would i think i looked smaller if wasn't smaller? and what happens when you eat perfect for a week? hell if i know, what happened the last time you ate perfect for that long & then a bit longer?
oh yeah, you went from 139 to 129, lolol.
(in the months following 20 days perfect eating from october into november, i was 135 -- and after i was done binge eating throughout the "holidays" into January & ate clean for a couple days then, i got to 129. and then i honestly went CRAZY on 1 day, and clocked in at 140. that was around the 16th. i seriously stayed above 134 for a week (and was also on my period!!, hah). and then -- went perfect for a solid week, and here i am - 129. )
the effort in october wasn't even this great. (although that effort did include exercise, hah!) that was months ago! this week was wonderful. (dietwise)
this month will be especially spectacular as well. (as far as food plans)
i intend on making this (February) a perfect month for myself. i have a goal of 125 for Valentine's Day.
my arms are starting to definitely for surely shape up. (there's only so much fat on so many different places on my body... it's all going. really!)
oh ! ok! so ! remember how i mentioned "doomed dressing" earlier? and even if you don't remember,...
ugh. i obtained some apricot olive oil vinegarette dressing from the super meat&cheese lesser-but-still-great grocery store at the flea market... and.. while in line at the check out for the 99 cent store it.. fell out of my bag-purse-thing and CRASHED ONTO THE GROUND, AND BURST INTO A PILE OF OOZY BROKEN-GLASS-Y OILY DOOM.
it was kind of funny, i was realllllllly saddened, and was just -- dumbstruck for a while, staring at the hazardous puddle (instead of telling the 99-cent-store-people they should clean up, in retrospect, hah) --
i bent down to touch my finger to a part of the glass that was in the air, that hadn't touched the ground, so i could taste what it tasted like --
and like 2-3 different people who were in line behind me were like, "NO! NO!! don't touch it!!" "NO! Let them clean it up for you!" etc--
and i think i may have come off as a bitch, because i said, "I just want to taste it! I didn't get to taste it yet!"
-- i put my fingertip to a wet part of the bottle, and got a taste...
i think it was actually spoiled? in any event, it didn't taste all that great, and i probably wouldn't of eaten it. (at least, that's what i told myself? hah)
later in the day, however, i felt... actually a little bit amused that God/I had broken my olive oil vinegarette. --
that stuff is PURE FAT, lolol, and.. i intended to add it to my diet, and then... disaster struck!
i was looking through all of the different cheeses & i almost bought some, but -- the question came into my head, as usual, "Rachel, What is cheese?"
"Lol, Rachel, it's saturated fat."
"Okay. Do you need that?"
"No, Rachel, I don't think you do... Perhaps you need some leaner protein?"
"Oh, yeah, like turkey? Oh, but what about ham?"
-- *compares turkey to ham*
HAM HAS TWICE THE CALORIES OF TURKEY!!! (lolol, imagine a pig's anything then imagine a turkey's breast
turkeys own.)
however, SALTED MEATS --
really do not own at all. :) (i had 40% of my sodium from the turkey, and another 12% from the bread, and maybe a considerable amount from the mustard? hah, i don't know. --
... for breakfast, i actually had a little 5% dose from my peanut butter.
i am not even sure it's right to get salt in THAT concentrated of a dose. . . (50%+ from my sandwich) i am probably sure it's not right. hahahaha.
i definitely aspire to get my own whole turkey breasts, cook them in suitable amounts of salt (or NONE, MWAHAHHA, AND TONS OF HERBS & VEGETABLES!) --
and then slice those for my sandwiches. i like to put really cooked sweet potato on my sandwiches.
i like potatoes.
i should probably watch my carbohydrates more. i will eventually. everything is eventual.
i'm going to be 25 years old one day, and i'm going to have a six pack.
hahhaa, i'm probably joking.
but. i was looking at my stomach, and i was wondering what the inches on my waist were.
i have no idea what my measurements are, but i know what small measurements are, and i wonder how small i am. i have to be vaguely small if i wear the size small.
i kind of wear size small i would think, if the t-shirts were long. i am tall. size small sometimes has not enough thread for my torso. and it'll touch my pants, but..
you know that spot above the lower back/ass where a lot of girls get tatoos on?
yeah. if i wore the size small shirts that aren't especially long, you'd see that spot if i bent over or whatever, moved, hah.
so i guess i should just buy the size small & go get inked.
hah.
no one sees my flesh. no one can even tell i'm small. my clothes go out over size 12 probably. i've been wearing 2 pairs of pants whenever i go out for months.
no one is to see me any way.
i wouldn't want anyone to see me. unless i was working. i want to work. i obtained a white shirt & black pants to work.
i am a princess. i will work to build my castle.
god's castle.
the kingdom of heaven.
what's for dinner in your current castle, princess?
i don't know something light
i had something amazing yesterday.
so f-ing nutritious.
it was 300 calories (too much, lol) -- of spinach ribbons 1.5 cups #26 soup (beets, tomatoes, lentils, chicken, green circle peas, etc -- in tomato paste broth) a little cottage cheese (for protein!) BRUSSELS SPROUTS!! & garbanzo beans. with 2 tablespoons fat free sour cream
the soup was certainly a soup, but it had been frozen, so it was a bit chunkier...
so for real? i turned the soup into pretty much a pasta sauce! :D i added garbanzo beans & cottage cheese to it -- to thicken it up & put it over the spinach ribbons (those are 60% whole wheat, 40% spinach noodles, btw! they were honestly maybe the best noodle i've ever eaten!! 5g of fiber for 210 calories, woooorth it!) & then put the brussels sprouts on top. & then the sour cream. garbanzo beans & (nonfat) sour cream =
delicious!
i have 2 more 3 cup frozen portions of soup left. (those are perfect for making a huge dinner like the one described)
i am not even anywhere near hungry. that sandwich was great. it was so big. way better than subway. :D
oooooh. maybe i will stuff the bell peppers i got today!?!??!?!? for dinner!??!?! i can stuff them with garbanzo beans &... some other stuff. hah.
that would be a greaaaaaat dinner, very very light. i do vaguely want to accomplish 128 tomorrow. that sandwich was pretty heavy though! and salllllllty!!!!!!!!!////
i wouldn't be surprised if i'm 133 tomorrow instead of the glorious 128 gw.
oh well! :D
ok bye.
EDIT:
ALSO,
i have EXERCISE GOALS which are more important than weight loss goals, actually for the first week of February.
it's funny, the goal is actually.. drumroll ... 20 minutes! :P

| breadmaking! and - pounds from eating wonderful treats! |
[11 Jan 2009|03:26pm] |
i want to make jellies/jams etc in my new breadmaker. :D
i need to figure out... if i can not use sugar in the jams! (i will read about it later, don't bother unless you're interested, hehe)
i want to make triberry jam: blueberries, strawberries, and rapsberries/or-blackberries.
i want to make a spicy pepper jelly !! with... um... i am not even sure, but definitely -- a little teensy smidget of a spicy pepper -- and sweet bell pepper, and some other fruit i don't know which that compliments spiciness & peppers. :D
i want to make melon jelly too!
i think i am going to try the triberry jam first though. :)
i made my first loaf of bread yesterday, and thought i really messed it up (by adding too much water) but it still came out really nicely... (i took it out of the bread machine, because it was ridiculous -- and it would not of baked right in the machine there was... pretty much 3x too much water because i'm a crazy uneducated baker hehehehe
now i am a self-educated baker (who could already make pizza dough by herself though!!, hehe!)
now, i meant -- i know how to better follow the recipe, and what the dough should look like etc. i am very ready to try again. today! or soon.
i am feeling a little lazy, but come on, making bread in the bread machine is like... nuking a tv dinner except you have to measure it out
how hard is measuring? haha.
amusingly enough, when i cook -- (AS OBVIOUS BY MY FAILURES IN BAKING!!!) i kind of do whatever i want
with the basis of 5+ different fruits-and/or vegetables in each meal you can't really go wrong. and i pretty much never do. (radishes, onions, & garlic = win!)
even though i added too much water, and had to bake it in the oven in the kitchen, the (cinnamon-apple-nutmeg bread) turned out wonderfully, i had it with peanut butter & then i had it as little sandwiches with laughing cow light cheese (delicious! 45 calories & 1g of saturated fat for something like 2g of protein !!) -- with avocado & soymilk-with-orange juice for breakfast/lunch. all day. it's 4pm & i'm stuffed. bread machine bread with whole grain flour only & ground flax = amazing for living with!
as previously stated any way, i need to keep steadfast in my water-to-flour ratios when baking. (DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH IT'S SCIENCE DUH DUH DUH)
i will do this, and my bread will come out all luxurious like the pictures on the internet
for real, you are supposed to grab the breadbasket out of the machine with oven mits on (it will be hot, because it is the pan the bread just baked in, hehe)
& then you SHAKE IT (downwards), and a perfect loaf of bread!! is supposed to plop out!
i am excited.
i lost weight due to eating brilliantly.
i wonder what my bmi is?? it's 19.6!!! (129 pounds)
that's pretty comforting! :) what i think my body will weigh if i run every day & only eat well is the bmi of 18.7. i had never converted it into bmi before (i don't care that much about weight, it's all about purely eating well, afterall)
less than 18.5 is considered underweight, that's lol.

[04 Jan 2009|10:52am] |
i was sulking & listening to a song i have listened to 50,000 times &
i heard it in a different light,
he says --
"I'm so afraid I haven't made it clear
I owe you
I don't owe you
but you owe me"
And it was amusing,
because I applied it to Jesus & humanity
I owe you, Jesus I don't owe you [others]
[but you owe me] --being -- the author's personal vanity.
(i don't think anyone owes me anything, but -- i definitely found the --
I owe you I don't owe you
specifying of Who I Owe my diligence toward --
to be enlightening & very much comforting.
i remember once i went with my childhood best friend to a corn field maze
(maize maze!, heh!)
it was dark, but not that cold at all. it must've been early october -- the labyrinth was for 31st of october celebration.
i lost my friend & went around the maze for hours. i never found the end, but eventually the maze got ripped apart by kids & holes began appearing in the sides of the maze... and of course, some people knew the way out, so they lead others back to the light.
i didn't mean for that to begin to sound like a comparison of the trials on earth before our God before i was done describing the maze, but hallelujah, it did sound quite like the earth --
what with the people ripping it apart & its isolating darknesses of course, & -- the people who know the way to the light or at least your apparent happiness to guide you the way.
it's amusing, if there is no God to a person then God is whatever makes you happy & that's why this world is sick it's run by what makes people happy & generally speaking people aren't wholesome.
oh, but let us generally speak of wholesome things only & rejoice in the name of the true God FOR REALLY
has he brought us here to pout at the world's sicknesses?
hehe.
i wrote something along the lines of
FUN
What is fun?
Fun is anything that would in the eyes of the Lord, please him. Anything pleasing to the lord is to be considered fun, and fun itself should only please you if it were to please the Lord Himself.
i said it less wordy & more uplifting, in cute crayons on a piece of paper. it's around here somewhere, i am going to frame the message -- because it's the absolute truth. :)

[02 Jan 2009|11:25am] |
i just read miley's/hannah montana's new album
& am convinced...
she is a little slut demon from lucifer himself sent to earth to defile young girls.
it's QUITE amusing, totally... anti-jesus-christ in every way possible.
-- the last song on her album goes:
"Break out Let the party start, We're gonna stay out, Gonna break some hearts, We’re gonna dance till the dance floor falls apart, Uh-Oh! all over again,"
I don't know about you, but I sure as hell know girls break hearts.
wtf.
"let's go out & be sexually promiscuous" is what she is saying -- how could it be anything else? in an earlier song on the same album, it talked about this guy "loving her" & "liking someone else" -- aka -- being heartbroken because her boyfriend/love interest is interested in someone else... (as well as her, obviously)
---
AND WHAT??? a couple songs later, she SUGGESTS we go out and literally break hearts --
OK. what would jesus do?
apparently, miley thinks jesus would dance until the dance floor falls apart.
"We’re gonna have some fun, Gonna lose control, It feels so good, to let go oh oh (go oh oh)"
we're going to have bad grammar & disgrace the lord is what she is really saying. she is suggesting that we "lose control" - and I don't know about you personally, but all the times I've lost control -- it wasn't pleasant.
it takes a very dilligent adult mind to navigate the world as Jesus Christ has intended us to navigate it (abolishing evil in every way possible -- creating the kingdom of heaven!!) --
AND Miley -- is telling us -- ... NOT TO.
Lose the control that you have over your body that you are supposed to be using the create the kingdom of heaven & to please your lord --
lose that mindset & do whatever anyone else wants you to do.
& something i have thought about -- especially... is that,
what do you do when you go out at night, exactly?
in the song, it says "we're gonna wake up everyone we know"
so that implies that they are sleeping, and i will say - what school-aged children are sleeping during the day? none, so she is talking about dancing ALL NIGHT whereever she wants without her parents, obviously
okay, now i ask -- what does a child do at night when breaking out?
hahahaha, they consume things. be it alcohol, be it soda, be it food, be it cigarettes --- be it all those things & more --
if your child is not in their beds, and they are breaking out with all their friends to dance all night -- it is... within corporate interest, am I right?
MORE "partying" at a younger age === MORE $$$ for all the corporations that sell food, booze, cigarettes, EVERYTHING!!!
Something that killed me -- that made me CRINGE so deeply,
that really proved to me that either a.) miley or b.) her father or anyone else who wrote her lyrics --
doesn't have Jesus Christ in mind at all times is that -- in that same song --
it says --
"Hangin' out's Just somethin' we like to do My friends and the mess we get into, These are the lessons that we choose, Not a book full of things we'll never use."
WHAT BOOK????
OOHHHHHHH COULD IT MAYBE BE THE BIBLE THAT YOU'RE NOT USING!??!??!??!
MAYBE~!??!?!??!?!?!!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!? MAYBE?!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!??!??!?!??!
*dies*
if you and you're friends are just hanging out -- not creating the kingdom of heaven & you & your friends get into "messes" -- or even listen to these songs with real interest i don't think you & your friends are doing what Jesus Christ intended for us to do.
Therefore, thousands of preteen & teenage girls alike are just doomed, basically.
If Miley loved Jesus Christ, she would realize that there is a book you are supposed to be using -- it is the bible & her lyrics... are offensive to God! KISSING?!??!?!?
KISSING!??!?!?!?!?!? A TEENAGE GIRL SINGING ABOUT KISSING AND THIS IS BEING GIVEN TO CHILDREN???
5,6,7 year old girls --- singing about wanting to be KISSED wanting to be KISSED
what comes after kisses, kids?
hahaha, i meant to address -- "kids" as you, my audience, but... honestly --
KIDS COME AFTER KISSING & GUESS WHAT COMES BEFORE KIDS HERE
...
*dies*
...........................
this needs to stop.
why doesn't everyone see the SIN THE FILTH of everything?
oh cuz satan rulez here.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
p.s. i wish my 10 year old sister didn't have the blonde hannah montana wig
she is going to get hurt by boys. and even if she is not going to have sex she is still going to be miserable without jesus to guide her.
she goes to church & everything, but... that doesn't mean a god damned thing if you come home & idolize miley while watching your brothers play video games that are shooting people in the head with rifles.
... dear god. bless us please. we love you. and we need you.
/end.

Joy Electric - a hatchet, a hatchet |
] |
i remember the spider on charlotte's web
singing about mother nature's wonder
she personified mother nature as a woman who changed her dress for each season dictated by Father time -- as a man who controlled mother nature's dress
dancing.
which is cute.
i was young. seasons meant at one time you were hot & in pain from tbe heat & at other times you were cold & in pain from the cold
what are seasons besides a trial from god, heh?
now i am the singing spider, however, and i don't... personify anything but the love of christ.
almost every childhood cartoon being viewed by children is disgraceful to god.
but that's another story.
which is the same story
this entire earth was built for the glory of god
& it hasn't been used correctly.
i'm depressed.
