Her Post- Did you know “ Fuck You “ is the new “ I Love You”? Ask James Franco.

Rise and shine, Alabama! Right, I don’t live in Alabama, although it would be nice, but I always wanted to say that!

I even dress myself like a cow girl. At least I tried...

I gladly present you our 100% recovered versions! These little robots are having their cake and eat it too. In fact, we are feeling so better, that we went out for a date last night.


It was more of a last moment decision. Have I ever told you how much I enjoy my part time job for the benefits that come along? I may have mentioned here and at the end of this post. Two days ago, I received a free invitation at “ Your Highness” from the PR of a major Cinema Center and only press people wore allowed. We stock up with pop corn and beverages and arrived just in time for the first scenes.

I’m not going to walk in the steps of Pinocchio and lie to you till my nose will reach the length of my arm. “ Your Highness” should call “ Your D**kness” cause that was all we saw and heard.



Make me some room, would you? He probably seen it too.

 There are some movies where “ I love you” sounds like the favorite line of the characters. It’s annoying and sugary and I prefer it million time than “ F**k You”, the favorite line of James Franco. And guess what?

"Although the film was written by writer Ben Best and actor Danny McBride, the dialogue is heavily improvised. Director David Gordon Green said there was never a script used on-set. Only the plot outline and written notes were used."


Well that explains everything. Yet, it didn’t bothered much Cosmin and the majority of the guys laughed. To sum it up, I saw an awkward movie, with jokes that gross me out and took away my crush on little James Franco.


What's the worst movie YOU ever seen??

Her Post- They say routine is bad for you. They suck.

Hi, there! I just got out the shower and some water drops are dangerously falling into my keyboard. I am that excited to write to you! Life has been better to us and things are slowly starting to get to their normal track.

Enjoy your routine, but don't get to comfy!

This was the first day when I can honestly say that we’re back to our normal routine. Oh, me missed it so much! Eating breakfast in the kitchen, at a table, taking shower without rushing, sleeping in a quiet environment and just knowing where things are in the house.

Let me refresh your memory on what’s been happening around here in the past two weeks:

• ”Why a nursing degree may be the ultimate tool to stay in shape?
•  How we survive renos

Speaking about routines. During this crazy marathon , we found ourselves sick, but our health got worse because of a more important factor: the lack of a familiar routine. It never occurred to me than I could be that affected by such a thing since I named myself “ a chameleon” .

They say routine it’s a bad thing, a boundary between man and change. Routine can damage your life and relation, if you get stuck and live “ inside the box”.
When you pass day by day after the same tree not knowing that it’s there, then you can say routine is taking over your life in an unhealthy way.



Can you tell I love my walking routine?



But imagine waking up every single morning with what question on your mind: What’s next? It would be a chaos if we have to constantly change our jobs, our eating habits, if we had to sleep one day on the floor and one day on a bed made of bambus?

I consider myself a highly adaptive creature, a “chameleon”, not some Phoenix bird that can reborn on and on. In fact, I'm a Scorpio !

Routine keeps as sain. Yeah, we should totally break it from now and then, taking our lives two the next level. Having a pattern of habits molds our personality, making us sure that we can handle some of the buttons of a complex machine.



Ooh, what does this button dooo?



Maybe I’m wrong. I would love if you would smack me in the face with my theory, so we can come up with another!

Her Post- Renos Survival Guide

It’s officially weekend, but nobody’s resting around here. If you ever seen “ Extreme Makeover-Home Edition” , you also know how look our apartment right now.
If not, let me put it like that: I took a “ dust shower” every single day for the last two weeks, my balance improved a lot since I zigzagging between bricks and chunks of wood and you might be surprised how cooked oats mixed with gravel tastes like ( crunchy and rocky).


If you think about doing renos, make sure you double check my Survival Guide:

• Consider doing a little meditation in the morning. Get rid of all the negative emotional charge, so you can handle the clutter around you without having a claustrophobia attack.

This used to be a fun house, but now it's full of ...clutter

• Make a list with food that you normally eat and cook meals in advance. Eating was our major problem. We had to eat cold, unhealthy food, while standing up. Not fun.

See? No table and chairs. I guess I could stick my butt in that bucket over there and pretend it's a chair.

• Tell people about it! Some days, you’re nerves will be all over the place, but knowing what’s going on helps people be more tolerant.

• Get friendly with workers. It may appear that you’re in charge, but it’s more the opposite. Some of them aren’t quite smart, but can tell a joke better than Seinfeld. The more you get along with them, the sooner they finish the job.



That guy covering his face was so funny...He said I'm worse than a paparazzi!


• Escape when you can. Even if it’s just a walk in the park or coffe with a friend. Renos can put you through short episodes of depression. Take it one step further and add some vitamins along with every breakfast.

                                        I ran and ran and stopped only when I was in a green, happy place.

• Enjoy the mess. Remember when you’re a kid and you used to love having a t-shirt with mud spots and dusty pants to match? Ohh, the priceless look on your mother’s face.. Have fun with this process. After all, it will be a great story to tell at Thanksgiving dinner!




What about you? Who's in the same boat with me is more than welcomed to share tips!





Her Post- Life it’s all about balance, I blow it every day

Did you guys missed me? Or us? We were kind of busy. We actually didn’t move a feet from our bed. Nope, we didn’t had a “ honey moon reloaded episode”. Instead, I showed my love giving C. another piece of toilet paper to blow his nose.

While hubs couldn’t even smell the food during sickness, I had no problem eating well, but everything seemed tasteless.

I had a major surprise, when I putted my jeans and they were as loose as a pair of dad shoes can be when his five years old tries them.

As a former anorexic, I constantly fight to keep things balanced in my life, whether it’s about food, work or love. When things get excited in one segment, I tend to lose sight of my eating habits.

When on The Road, you have to focus on "The Big Picture", rather than just a few details


Just a week ago, we had a huge fight because my husband noticed a slightly weight loss. He was right. Being so close to graduation, having so much fun at my part-time job and writing this blog kept me busy and away from the fridge and my lack of energy proves that.

Cosmin reminded me the hell we both gone through when “ANA” took charge of my life and how vulnerable I still am, a year after my recovery. He also made sure I am aware of his fully support , he told he loves me when I shine and that happens only when I take good care of me.

Glow.

Sometimes I have a hard time finding balance on a bike, and sometimes I suck at being there for…me. Neither monks, nor circus performers know what “balance” really means , so WHY should I know? Our life it’s a suspended, bumpy rope to walk on. The more we look down, the more we’ll slip off.

Heads up, practice makes it perfect!
