Birthday Birthday And Again Birthday Part Deux Or Our September




Last year we spent the September Birthdays in North Carolina. It was beautiful and sad because not only was it their (Glenda. Joy and Faith's) first birthdays without my husband but our Uncle Pookie passed away just a month before in August.  It was a beautiful and fun birthday but it was not a party.  It was simply the 4 of My Royal Family 4 healing.  The title of this blog is a play off of a 2013 posting (Bryan was still with us) Birthday Birthday And Again Birthday and if you read both postings you will see how far we have come.  This years party celebrations are closer to the real us but not really.  We are trying our best to live the dream and we do this as a family by celebrating each other.

This year we had a dinner party for Mom (Virgo).  We went to Churchill Downs night racing on Faith's (Libra) actual birthday and had a party to end all parties for Faith and our cousin Shawn two days later.  We had a brunch and a dinner for Joy's (Libra) birthday while we worked and partied with the Idea Festival! My diet went to hell on the 26th of September!  I almost want to name this posting Our September because it was busy, fun and full of great food.  This September was the September of the 90's Party, food trucks, parties, great ideas, BILLIONAIRES (although I will not point out who they are), night racing at Churchill Downs, Cincinnati Bengals Pro Football players and just plain living!

Faith's 90's Birthday Party


Sit back and relax.  I am posting pretty pictures and fun videos and maybe just maybe you will get an idea or two.  This is more than just about parties, birthdays and celebrations.  It is about food, love and life.  It is about doing what feels right, like having a food truck! YES, we had a food truck at Faith's 90's birthday party and it was amazing!  It cut down on clean up and the food was so good!

Beauty By The Moon (Diet, Weight Loss And Long Hair)

Trim Hair during the waxing moon for longer faster growing hair
Moon Oct. 17 2013

Okay, I am very bored with trying to make myself look the way I want in my dreams.  I am frankly burned out when it comes to diets and my hair can never grow fast enough to satisfy me. Right now the only thing that can excite me is fashion, but all my money is tied up, so I am not all that excited.  Unfortunately it seems the rest of the Ladies Of The Round Table are burned out on everything to do with self improvement, too.  In other words none of use can stay on a diet, and none of us seem to care!

This started me thinking, "Is there something wrong in the Universe?" Why can't I do what needs to be done? Why can't anyone in my family stay on a diet? I have been looking at adjusting my schedule to coincide with the moon.  I was explaining to Faith my little experiment when she asked me if I had ever tried to use the moon to plan my diet.  I had not.  Wow, I was using the waning and waxing of the moon to plan all sorts of things but not my diet.  Now I have heard of using the waxing and waning of the moon to grow your hair longer and loss weight, but I have never actually tried it.  This may be the something I needed.  Maybe I can breathe new life into my image goals.  Timing my diet to the waning and waxing of the moon might be fun.  So I looked up how to use the moon to make my hair longer and my waist smaller.

I looked at many sites and books.  I found Farmer's Almanac extremely helpful.  They have a Best Days Calendar that makes planning beauty ideas easy.  Apparently, starting a diet during a waxing moon is harder on your willpower.   Cutting your hair during a waning moon is a very bad idea if you want long hair.  Oh, and the best time to start a diet is the night of the Full Moon.  The full Moon this month is tomorrow, October 18, 2013 (also lunar eclipse).  Yes, tomorrow I will start my diet.  I will see if starting my dieting during the full Moon really makes things easier.  It won't be just me starting my diet by myself, I hope.  Mom and my sisters are supposed to start their diets tomorrow.  All of us will be doing The 4-Hour Body (Faith and I both read and love this book) and Pat Brown System (a friend recently told us to check this out).  In addition I am doing the the Fast Diet for a little extra kick; I really liked the book and I know that the 5:2 schedule will work well for me.  So, tomorrow we diet, but today we feast.  Joy and Faith made a huge brunch.  It was amazing.  Later tonight I will have Korean noodles and bourbon.

Tomorrow we diet.  Today I have no motivation to diet but maybe tomorrow will be different.  We have to diet.  We must diet.  Our goals are clear.  Diet to look even better than we did here:

My goal is to drop weight and grow longer hair using the help of the moon.  Heck, when you get bored with dieting you have to change it up.  If you need a new formula to help improve your image, start looking at things you haven't tried.  At the very least it will add a little excitement to your beauty routine.  As for now when the moon is waning I am going to give my hair oil treatments and deep conditioning.  Today I am going to feast, drink and be merry.  Oh, here is the brunch that Joy and Faith made for today's last hoorah.  Food porn anyone? Cheese Grits, Maple Bacon, Eggs, Cut Potatoes (home fries), Buttermilk Pancakes
