We were the flag carriers for the opening ceremony. There were 1000 people in the room, and I wasn’t nervous until I saw that my +1 made it to my table.
My organization held a huge event to honor elders in the community. We had our premier Wab Kinew there. This is the event I wanted a ribbon shirt for. I made mine myself. It was absolutely precious when our boys got nervous, the way they looked up to us mentors in that moment. I was gushing the whole time. I was so proud of our little warriors. Two of our boys did the land acknowledgement. People get so moved to see our boys do anything. My job is justice restoration, we are actively trying to reclaim the indian in them. A few of them want to learn how to make their own ribbon shirts, which is what I was hoping for. This is why I taught myself how to make one. I’ll have to get a naming ceremony together for them first so they can get their colors. I’m dragging that out for myself because I don’t have my name or colors either. I am worried it will be something like squatting dog. I want to be in the buffalo clan, that would be cool.
I couldn’t tell you anything else about the event. My crush was with me. It was very last second. He was still in his work shirt. He didn’t have time to run home and change. I couldn’t find his business card, so I had to get Virginia to text him. I got his card now so we texting. We are going to go on a little hike at a provincial park sometime soon.
The diet drama continues. I pivoted on the candida cleanse because starving it was too traumatic for my body. The week of stomach cramping was loud and clear. It eats toxic waste, so just remove the toxins. Is the terrain theory approach. I went fully back to what I was eating before I started that cleanse, and what happens when I quit something? I get hypersensitive to it. I feel like I ate a loaf of bread when I didn’t touch wheat. Bread is gut enemy #1. The gutlining is the battlefield, and that is what I need to fix. That will take the rest of the year to repair. It’s like I did this to make things better, but it made me feel worse. Well, I’m not numb to the damage that I was inflicting before, so this is… a silver lining. Frig
Anyway, I think this is the last day with my cold. No cough today, just feel a little congested. I can return to the gym. I woke up at 3:30 with a severe stomach ache, but got excited when I realized that I felt well enough for the gym. I’m wasting away into nothing.
