I’m kind of new to the world of blogging, and I’m still figuring out the basics. So bear with me!
Anyway, about the title, Under A Gypsy Moon. My real name (which I’m not willing to share online) literally means “Moon”, and my sweet fiancee, when I asked him if he thought I was a hippy-type, said “No, I think of you more as a gypsy.” So I thought that the title was fitting.
This blog is supposed to be about my journey into the world of No ‘Poo and natural(-ish) living. Right now, I color my mousey-brown hair with henna, I use Aloe Vera directly cut from the leaf to wash my hair, and I do occasionally use baking soda, depending on my mood about my hair. And sometimes I even revert back to shampoo if I’m feeling… Very unkempt. Is Unkempt a word? I thought I read it before in other places. But now, now I’m trying to go completely ‘Poo free. Oh, and I’m also a Bare Minerals fan, in fact I just got the Bare Minerals Eye Kit this morning, so I’ll probably blog a bit about that stuff, too.
What else? I want to enjoy more living foods and try to stay away from sugary, processed, packaged foods (I type this as I suck down a Venti White Chocolate Mocha from Starbucks… Those will have to go, too.) I’d like to start drinking red wine, a glass a day, because I heard and read that it’s really good for you. I also want to lose weight, and I want to do it naturally… I want to evolve my life away from chemicals as much as I can…
And on those notes, I need to leave for work! I’m a checker at a corporate grocery store… No, I don’t like it, but I had to do something in order to pay the bills. I’m hoping to go to college to do something else. I’d like to get into Nursing, there’s so many fields for it, and I think that Nurses actually help people, they’re not the ones who are pushing pills at patients because pharmaceutical companies give them a premium if they do… That’s a rant for a later post. For now I’m off.
