hello

[Guest guest]

Hi Bob.

I hadn't talked to you in a while so thought I'd check in and say hello. How

are you doing?

I am still in Bermuda and living here pretty much full time now. At some

point I will go back to NY and sell or rent my apartment.

Meanwhile I have gotten back on a raw regime that is not complete but mostly

complete. I began to feel badly most the time, and that was a wake up call. I

knew what I had to do. While I was getting back on track, I had a two week

migraine. That certainly was a reminder not to stray.

I don't know if I will ever conquer my food addictions, but I know raw food

is the best way. The only things I eat now that are not raw are veganaise,

(basically grape seed oil) on raw veggies and cooked tahini in my salad

dressings. Basically the salad dressings. I am not worried about them at present

as I need to keep my eye on the big picture. They will fall away in time, I

know.

I am growing my own lettuce here in big pots which I bring indoors when the

hurricanes come by. Like they are in now, because Wilma just went by. I will put

the pots back out today.

So I eat bananas and dates and berries and sometimes lettuce in my

smoothies. I eat salad several times a week. And snack on fruits. I eat a lot of

avocados too. and watermelon.

So now I am starting to feel better again. Someone mentioned that my

complexion has changed a lot. I think it is because I was unhealthy looking and

now there is vibrancy to my skin.

I realise all this probably sounds pretty boring to a veteran, as you have

this down pat, so I will stop.

The week after next I am getting a peach sapling ($10) which I will start in

the back garden. Bermuda peaches are white and sweet and delicious.

I don't know how much longer I will stay in my mother's house here, as we may

be trying to sell it soon, but I can't resist planting some fruit trees in the

garden, bananas are what first come to mind. Also oranges and loquats. I already

have guava which I don't like much and surnam cherries. I would like lots of

bananas and another avocado tree as mine doesn't have any avocados.

Went on a wonderful walk with a friend on the beach as the hurricane was

passing. It was awesome! The water was beautiful.

Well that is life here for the moment. I'd love to hear your news if you feel

so inclined.

Yours in health, Lane
