★彡 @Wildfire: Same and I'm doing alright so far. Today feels a lot slower though probably because I woke up around five...
How are you? 彡★

@Purpsy: ...sorry... fell down a rabbit hole...
I'm doing ok, so far. I am somewhere between "awake and productive" and "wanting to veg and do nothing"... but there are a few things that I really do need to follow up with today, so I guess that's that decision made - lol! I'm sorry to hear that you woke up so early. I was up for a couple of hours in the middle of the night myself (hate that) so I feel your sleepy pain! XD

★彡 @wildfire: Ugh yeah but fortunately I did get some decent sleep in last night so I'm not sleep deprived...yet.
Oof is better to get those stuff done and hopefully you got time to wind down and relax later. I got more time to work on my drawing today since I got a ton of stuff done yesterday. Is really nice when you get all dem tasks done, I felt very accomplished lel 彡★
@Purpsy: lol - yeah, it's always a nice feeling to have gotten things accomplished :3
I hope your drawing goes well today. Are you still working on that one avatar?

★彡 @Wildfire: Nope I'm done with it long ago :3
Honestly had to take a little break after that, it took a toll on me. 彡★
@Purpsy: well, congrats on getting it finished! I understand completely - although you enjoy doing art, there sometimes comes a point when you're all "is it done yet?!!!" XD

I guess I just grew up not eating it until I tried being a Vegetarian as a kid.
Then again, a plant-based diet is far more well known now than back then. xD;

@MoodyB: Yeah well people tend to use themselves as a gauge against anything anyone else is or should be doing.
@Vegan: Yes, way back when I was vegetarian or vegan it was harder to actually do it than it is now. It's much easier to find things free of animal products now than it was... but now everything is full of soy or corn or potato or other things that, in quantity, aren't the best for most people (and are not good for me...).
Yeah ... as soon as I landed back in the US after being in Europe for a week, I wanted to get back on the plane and go back. Everything here is LOUD and much more complicated than it needs to be

@Wildfire:
I agree the USA can be very loud, not only that? The pollution levels are higher and makes it harder to breathe.
Soy isn't bad for people unless they are allergic to it.
People worry due to its estrogen, it's phytoestrogen, aka plant estrogen.
Doesn't act in the same way that dairy does, etc. ^__^;
Studies have shown how it's (soy) helpful against many health diseases.
My biggest recommendation is if you want more information to check out NutritionFacts.
It's run by a Doctor named Michael Greger. He reads every medical literature published.
Then he puts everything together with provided sources/medical findings to show fact from fiction.
As well as corn and potato aren't bad, I don't see anything bad for someone-
UNLESS! They are sensitive to starch /or/ have a harder time digesting it.

Cattle and most animals are fed more soy, corn, wheat and other things than people who stick to WFPB do per year.
The amount of water that goes into watering the crops, then clearing fields (mostly the amazon sadly), to feed animals?
Is a MUCH larger issue than me (or others) who consume soy/plant-based alternatives.
There is a documentary on all of this called Cowspiracy and they update their website with the latest information.
If you believe something else? I entirely get it. - I have reversed by T2D by switching to WFPB.
I am also not here to judge what you eat/do for your own health. I've just many great things come about studying this all.
I used to be 300lbs in September 2016 when I learned about animals treatment.
By June 2017, I got down to 219lbs. I gained a lot of weight back due to junk food.
Been working through that lately and eating a lot more balanced and feeling much better.
I gained back to almost my highest weight when I stopped nourishing/caring for myself.
I stayed Vegan for the animals (by definition, this is what Veganism is about, not some diet trend).
The definition I follow is the term that was coined in the 1940s by the Vegan Society found here.

@Vegan: Yes, I'm well aware of many of the details surrounding meat or meatless-based diets, growing practices, etc. - trust me, I have done my homework, and continue to do so- including reading nutritional data, studies, etc. There are more issues with some of these things -soy, wheat, corn, potato, etc.- being shoved in to every ounce of food meant for human consumption than some sources will lead you to believe. Yes, there are definitely issues with growing corn as fodder for animals, for example, but there are also the subsidies paid by the federal government for farmers to grow much more corn than we really need. Then there's the whole gmo aspect of the majority of these crops. The combination makes it a nightmare for people who are trying to avoid one or more of these ingredients for one reason or another to actually avoid them. Humans do not need all that starch (it's not healthy), and growers feed these things to animals precisely to fatten them up for slaughter. It's great that you've had success with the vegan diet but it (or even a vegetarian diet) is just not healthy for everyone. Me, for one. I was vegan for years, after being vegetarian for years before that. My health suffered as a result. And yes, I was "doing it right" (which is the first thing a lot of vegans/vegetarians seem to ask or suggest when I say that) ;)

@MoodyB: I'm glad you got some rest, but sorry to hear about the stress.
Good morning everyone.
The semi-scary storms that came through a couple of days ago have brought gorgeous cooler weather with them and I have been outside enjoying it and working in the yard and pulling weeds from the garden, so I haven't been online much the last day or so. I hope everyone has been doing well.
What's new?
Got plans for the weekend?
Random Question -----------------> If you could space travel to any planet or moon in our solar system, which one would you go to and why?

★彡 @Wildfire: Good morning! I haven't been here much at least in the morning recently. Turns out I have more energy to draw in the mornings (^▽^;)
It has rained a lot yesterday for me so hopefully is going to be nice and sunny today ish too early to tell right now.
With all your effort your putting your garden will be looking amazing once it gets even more warmer. So pics maybe? :3
I'm not so sure what my plans is today or for the rest of the weekend ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 彡★
@Purpsy: So you've been drawing! That's good :3 How's your current piece coming along?
I hope you get a nice day today and can maybe get outside - the weather has got to be starting to warm up for you at least a little by now. Do you still have snow on the ground?
And yeah, I can probably post a photo or two of my garden. Everything is still pretty small right now, though. It is hard to tell what I have space for at this point, not really knowing how big some of these things are going to get! I'll try to remember to take some photos later, once the sun is showing off and shining on everything :3

★彡 @Wildfire: I just finished it yesterday and I'm very happy with it :3
Hopefully yeah and no it hasn't been snowing since... last week? But the it was wet snow so it didn't really stay on the ground for too long. And can't wait! Yeah and take your time with it. No rush ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ♥ 彡★
@Purpsy: Oh! I'm glad you're happy with your latest drawing!
No snow since a whopping last week, huh? XD Well, although I have seen it snow later in the year than it is now, it's not very common - hopefully last week's mushy snow was the last of it for this year! :3
