Welllll its official....I broke the cafe! It all started when I took a trip to Sedona, AZ. 

We traveled via Amtrak overnight and arrived to Flagstaff, AZ at 6am. Sitting next to someone with very minimal room to wiggle or move makes it VERY difficult to sleep. Your damn right, I had to get a cafe as soon as we arrived! Met another girl who we will call CANADA that was traveling alone and headed to Phoenix to visit her grandparents. CANADA mentioned she was going to grab some cafe from the local cafe shop, so I tagged along and I'm glad I did! The rest of my trip consisted of caffe latte's, especially after I met my new fave place, "Wildflower Bakery Co."

Also rolled a blunt for the trip, which penetrated the entire bus enroute to Flagstaff that was pretty funny! hahaha I took it just in case my anxiety or insomnia went out of control. The first two days I did really well not medicating. It wasn't until I went to get an Aura reading and have my chakra's balanced. My energy was electrifying and the thoughts and images just kept racing through my brain non-stop. 

The room I was staying in was a non-smoking room. Great! Put a towel underneath the door and turned the hot water in the shower for evaporation. Put the fire to the sage and lit the blunt. It had been awhile since I smoked a blunt and let me tell you it will probably be my last one in a looooong time! 

The rest of the trip it wasn't necessary to medicate, so I tossed the burned end of the blunt and wrapped the rest of the pretty much untouched blunt in toilet paper and put it in my bag to bring back home. Since I've arrived, it hasn't been necessary for me to medicate because my energy feels like I am walking on air. Especially after healing at the vortexes in Sedona! 

Today, I went to Porto's Bakery, another fave place to get a cafe latte. Mayn I should've stayed away because it made me miss my Wildflower Bakery cafe latte's madly!

Challenging myself to decrease the intake of Medical Marijuana was probably the best challenge I could have given myself. At first, I thought it was going to be difficult due to the many years of medication of my system, guess I was wrong!

Once you stop medicating for a week or so, it feels as if all the medical marijuana is actually coming out of your pores. Upon my return from Lindsay, CA; I was exhausted from all the festivities, shopping and interior decorating. Medicating was not even an option, otherwise I would probably just fall over once I did.

The quarter that was bought 2 weeks ago lasted a lil over 2 weeks and 2 days. Amazing! I am still trying to recoup from the week mini-vacation, so the medicating is still very minimal.

Tomorrow, I leave for Sedona, AZ via Amtrak and I highly doubt I will have time to medicate while gone. Besides is Arizona a Go Green state? Don't wanna take that risk and probably wont have time to medicate, since I will be visiting the Vortexes and doing tons of touristic visiting while in Sedona.

If you dont hear from me in a few days...You know where I'll be!

This week I am traveling to Northern California aka Lindsay, CA. Lindsay is a lil retirement town where the Germans' would migrate for work and The Gillette's would visit during their Summer vacations.

This trip has made it impossible for me to not drink cafe or medicate! The first day was a breeze and then my mom introduced me to DeLeon cafe! Apparently it is a weight loss cafe with cactus, silmarin and ginseng. It is deeeelicious and  yes i broke my cafe binge but I have yet to visit Starbucks since the last time I posted.

As for the medicating, it hasn't been very frequent and the consumption has been also very minimal. I've been running around doing errands for mum and getting things for her new adobe. By the time I finish with the mini tasks and running around, i am worn out!

However, I've noticed my insomnia is outta control and that's when I medicate from the hand-made apple bong. Usually it is a toke and im done and i am ready to pass out!

One thing I did notice is....the quarter i bought a week ago has stretched out to two weeks! Which means no money spent and my lungs seems to be discharging that resin that is sitting in my lungs.

We'll see how the rest of the weekend goes...We have family visiting from New Mejico and I dont know if that apple and I will be able to spend a lil time together and that's ohhhhkay!

iluvmesum WEEDS yes and the other kind too! hahaha! This is one of my favorite shows and I have every season on dvd. Anxiously awaiting for season ocho; season 4-6 were a lil shaky but what can you say? That's what happens when you have transition in writers and storylines;some work and some don't and that's okay. such is life! I like to call myself the mexican version of Nancy Botwin but without all the drama, kids and dead husbands hahaha! 

What is your favorite season of Weeds? 

On another note...yesterday went rather well!Ran everywhere from Huntington Park too Cerritos then back home! First I headed out to the Healthy People office to stock up on some inventory for a few clients who are rockin and rollin on this great product! Then I headed out to the Norwalk Indoor Swap Meet where I was hoping to find some indian fashion jewelry but the lady was closed!

Hopped onto another bus and headed to lil india in Cerritos. iluvthatarea!!! I love the energy, culture, fashion, food and not to mention inexpensive eyebrow threading!  Once I found the bracelets to go with my fit for the quincenera, I headed out for some sushi and then home! On my way home, I made a quick stop back at the Norwalk Swap Meet to see if the lady was now open and she was! She didn't have the bracelets I was looking for so it was probably a good idea that I headed to lil India. However, she did have earrings to go with the rest of the attire and jewels, perfect! 

By the time I got home it was after 4pm and I was exhausted and ready to pass out and not to mention my bad back that is dead lock towards my hips! Whatisupwiththat?!!!

Once I got situated and headed out to get some din din it was almost 7pm. and that was my first toke of the night and I didnt even finish the bowl. You know how I know? In the morning, I check to see if the bowl is empty, half empty, or barely touched! I did however go to Starbucks in the morning for some tea and pastry since I knew I wasn't going to have lunch until later in the day!

Going cafe-less for 40 days & noches has enlightened my tongue with new taste buds. I've noticed, since I started drinking Apple Cider Vinegar tea with honey in the morning; that I usually do not have taste for anything!

Put about 3 tridents in my mouth and my tongue felt like someone scraped it with a tongue scraper!  What is up with that?

A few years ago, I was told by a doctor to lay off the cafe because it could effect my health. With the lack of consumption of cafe, I've also noticed that my ovary cysts are more sensitive! For the first time, I can also feel the ovary cysts that the doctor once felt when he told me to stop the caffeine intake.

Other then that today was really low key; probably due to the astrological forecast that's going on! For lunch I walked to Pollo Loco and to Office Depot to ship a few things. Then a few hours later, I walked to Target to buy a pair of birthday cards. 

On another note...The only time I medicated today was to begin my drawing for the Tarot libro and that was only one toke! The second toke was about 5 minutes ago and that's because I want my mind to stop racing and I'm ready to pass out!

My apologies for the delay in yesterday's post, the imac was acting like a lil brat and i just shut it down early! Yesterday, I had to head out to the Fashion District in downtown el lay to pick up Auntie's dress and a few other things and why not pick up some flowers for the barbie house?

Stopped by Starbucks in the morning, gave it a second chance to get a warm tea latte. They must have read my blog because they were sooo attentive and ready to pour me my venti bold cafe! Instead I stopped them from pouring and told them I was going to have something different. 

They were surprised to see that I was ordering tea instead of cafe. This time I decided on chamomile tea instead of green tea, it tasted even yummier!

Spent the entire day gone and when I returned I went to lunch with a friend. Which kept me busy and I was pretty much done with the medication that I had re-filled last week. Perfect!

That means that I was spending $155 more a week by buying 1/8th; every other day. Instead of a 1/4. It lasted an entire week! That's 7.0 grams = $95.00 x 7 days VS. 3.6 grams =$55.00 x 2 days/7 days week.

I'm going to continue sticking to minimal moderation because it makes it easier and easier to consume less. I am also not going to make going to Starbucks for tea latte's a habit! If that's the case...I will warm up some water and throw in a bag of black tea with a few scoops of honey! Then i'll walk myself to the grocery store for some whip cream! geez louise! hehehe

until the next time.....
