goodbye snowflakes

"Being that its spring now" I have been told by quite a few very observant people "it is time to take down the snow flakes in the front window."
I just want to say for the record...
I know its spring, I know it doesnt snow here and most importantly I love my snowflakes!
My love of paper snow flakes came from a neighbor of my moms in down town petaluma. Every year the family makes tons and tons of snow flakes and hang them in all the windows of their huge victorian home. It really is a sight to see. I decided to borrow this tradition for my own windows in the winter. Now my home is far from victorian, and I did only started out with 24 but one day I will have more windows, more snow flakes and I will leave them up spring or not.

hbot

i spend an hour in one on sunday. it belongs to a dear friend of mine who has been doing hyberbaric oxygen chamber therapy also known as HBOT for a few months now. im still pretty new to this topic myself but to sum it up at the risk of sounding scientifically silly... you climb in and and get comfy of course. L zipped me up and turned it on (which she can do by herself but shes a pro now) the chamber begins to pressurize to something like 4 times our atmosphere. it provides pure oxygen to breathe. (how cool is that!) which moves your blood to places in your body it may not reach and restores cells and.... i dunno google it!

what i do know is that it was awesome! it was the perfect temperature, and surprisingly quite roomy once it begins to expands. your eats do start to clog in the first few minutes but the pop easily by yawning or wiggling your jaw.

Of course once i was in i went right into trance. it was wonderfully peaceful :)

on the dark side

I have spent the last 27 years as a blonde.
It has been part of my idenity.
Blonde hair, blue eyes, fair skin.
"You know janeen, the blonde one?"
ALL the girls in my family are blonde.
"People pay money to dye their hair your color"
Did I mention it was part of my idenity?

I just went for it! Egyptian plum, how cool of a name is that? It was a great feeling to just DO IT and not think so much its only hair right?it'll grow out, it can be cut, or dyed back. It looks cleaner and i never woulda known if i didnt try. I love it...i think...I strongly like it, yeah, strongly like.
