where i'm at and what my sights are set on

I went from being super-sick where even anticipating being talked to hurt and caused me distress, impacting my fatigue and healing, having to avoid car exhaust, even a block away, covering face to breath when walking past chemicals, not being able to stay inside a highrise building without windows, to taking a 2.5 hour plane ride!!!

Healing progresses greatly in San Diego being out on the beach, breathing that air, being in the sun, having no agenda, sleeping surrounded by open windows.  I've also eaten alkaline since May, avoiding sugar, flour, dairy (some cheese later), all fruit (some later).  Some spurts of walking 2 miles a day.  Also, being away from stressful family.
