Back to basics

I am so thankful for our new home! It's wonderful to have a kitchen and living room and a backyard. We even have our own washer and dryer; we still have to pay to do laundry but we don't share it with tons of people anymore. Big plus! Since we pay 2 dollars to wash and 2 to dry if the clothes don't dry all the way they finish drying on a clothes line. Hahhaha, it's kinda neat, until it starts raining and then the clothes are more wet than they started. Today I think I'm in the clear; the sky looks clear.

JJ Divers is officially in business!!  Check out our blog JJ Divers Cayman 
Be sure to spread the word...  

More from rain

A couple more pics from the rain yesterday.

It's raining!

There is about 4-5 inches of rainwater accumulating on the back side of our home. It's been raining all day! You can see the side of our house beneath the water-eeek! We are coming up on hurricane season.

Hello Grand Cayman!  We have missed you.  It feels good to have our family back together.  We were apart for 3 months.  Before we came back Daddy met us in Orlando, FL and we were blessed with the most awesome Disney Vacation ever!  We visited all the parks including Universal Sudios.  Thank you Steve and Stephen =) 

Lord.  Thank you for blessing us with a nice home in Grand Cayman.  I have a REAL kitchen now!  And we have a couch!  And separate rooms!!  Thank you for also providing us with a vehicle.  Getting around town is so much easier now!  Thank you for providing Daddy with work.  We recognize that You are in control of our lives.  We trust You and pray that our actions and words are in line with your plan and give glory to you.

Can't Sleep Need Vegetables

It's 2 am and I am not sleeping.  I really want to be resting peacefully in dreamland, but the wheels in my brain are turning, "saying eat more fruits and vegetables, you have too many toxins in you".  Maybe its the 3 cups of coffee I had for dinner keeping me awake and not the fact that I need to ingest more raw foods.  Coffee doesn't usually keep me up; that is why I decided it was okay to indulge in the wonderful hot beverage.  Regardless, the reason I am up I do feel a need to change my diet.  I typically eat many fruits and vegetables; however the last few weeks I have not been eating what is normal for me.  I feel icky!  It is weird when you can feel that your body is not feeling well, yet you aren't sick.  Do people who don't consume very many raw foods with many high calorie processed foods feel this way all the time?  I bet they do, but they can't tell because "this" is normal for them.  Thank you mom and dad for always putting well-rounded meals on our dinner table.  Not only do I thank you but my body thanks you too.  Oh yeah, my husband and children thank you as well.

I believe:
If more people consumed more raw fruits and vegetables and less garbage food we would see fewer health problems.

Miss boss cont.

It's not so much that im bossing my children around.  I have been guiding them, but now it is time for them to graduate off the milk.  Why do I still need to guide them through the morning/evening routine; they know that they need to brush their teeth and hair, change their clothes, etc.  it is now time for them to take the innitiative and complete them on their own.  They are also familiar with tasks they are responsible for, but we have had inconsistency so they need guidance on when to complete it.  Chore charts are going up because i tired of repeating myself.
