I came to a conclusion.....after that stale sandwich I had at the Corner Cafe for $ 10, that making my own gourmet sandwiches at home is much better. Like this masterpiece, on my fave bread (Dave's Killer Bread) some melted cheese with oregano sprinkled on top, fresh sliced organic red onion, sliced organic tomato and avocado. Delicious!



Speaking of Dave's Killer Bread, for some reason they discontinued my absolute favorite kind, the Robust Raisin. I wold eat a whole loaf of that every three days. Soooooo good! So maybe it's a good thing that it got discontinued......I got a bit doughy over the winter months scarfing down bread and butter every day. Now I am back to "normal". When I first came to the US I lived in sunny Long Beach CA and worked in an office. I didn't move around a lot like I used to back in Sweden where you basically walk a lot, the European way of life. I also discovered Taco Bell and Burrito Supremes and thought it was the best thing ever, cheap and tasty.
Well, after a few months I had gained so much weight that I couldn't pull my jeans up past my mid thighs. And I also had a huge butt to go with my new hefty thighs. When I gain weight it settles mostly in my thighs and butt. The weight came off after some time but even today I am not as thin as I used to be when I lived in Sweden.....but whatever.
Tonight I am staying in with movies and ice cream. Angelica is sick and coughing. I sent her downstairs to make some hot tea for herself. Chhaya had her ears cleaned and teeth brushed today, she is already sleeping.

Some selfies of my legs from last night. It is all about the angle when taking a good photo. And light. A bad angle can make you appear larger and stubby and bad light in the face can age you a lot, unless you are a fresh faced teenager that is. Then light doesn't matter. What you have to work with in the first place also matters and helps a lot, of course.
It was an early night for me at work yesterday, not too many people came by. Lots of girls complaining in the office that they were not making any money, I don't know what good that will do.....complaining about it to the boss. What is he going to do? I already offered to make the club a nice Facebook page for advertising purposes but that idea didn't go anywhere and not because of me. The fishing is on hold now due to some fishing restrictions that I am not too familiar with for about two more weeks. It's windy and gray out. August is supposedly the rainiest month here.......is summer over soon? I hope not.

Yesterday I finally made it to Corner Cafe that I have been curious about. Well......I liked the large comfy couch and the fireplace, very cozy. The coffee was good, K - Bay coffee from Homer but my sandwich was NOT up to par. I ordered the veggie sandwich and for $ 10 I am expecting a very yummy sandwich on quality bread stacked with goodies. This one came on almost stale bread and I just wasn't impressed. The sandwiches at Odie's are still the best in town (Soldotna) and cheaper too. Tatiana the food critic has spoken.





Besides that I woke up around 11 today and started off my day with sweeping the floor, vacuuming and mopping the tiles by the entry door. Now I am having a latte at Coffee Roasters, after this I am going to get some groceries and then I have to brush Chhaya and clip her nails. Maybe a run before work tonight. Nothing exciting to tell you.
Last night a very nice guy that also happens to read my blog once in a while told me that I am an ANOMALY. I told him to write that on the blog but he said he'd rather tell me in person and that I could quote him here instead. So yeah, I am an ANOMALY. Meaning, a deviation from the common. That to me is a quality compliment. The usual compliments about my appearance I have heard countless of times but anomaly I like. Work has slowed down a lot,
I guess the people here fishing have went home.

I have to show you my new beautiful body chain I just got. It is made by a lady in Florida and her name is Tatiana......but the stores name is TatiRocks Jewelry.
She has lots of cute stuff. I found her on Etsy, I love that site. If you want some pretty jewelry you should shop TatiRocks
I am very happy with my body chain. It is made of delicate sterling silver and has five small crystals adorning it too. It came in a beautiful box with some pretty stickers on it and an angel card with the message of "Resilience" on it - a good message for me. I need that right now.
I like that Tatiana put some effort into decorating the box and added the card.....when people make that extra little effort it means they are quality people, to me at least.
Here is my body chain. CUUUUTE huh? Diann, the boss lady at work, loves it.

I still get comments on my Williston entries from people asking me how to get a job at either Heartbreakers or Whispers. I e mail everybody back, I have a strong sense of duty I guess. What you should know is that I have not worked in Williston since March 2102. I do not know if you can make thousands of dollars there.....I heard that it slowed down. I don't know.
Go and try it or don't. I can't tell you what to do. Then I came across a very good article a girl wrote about Williston, she basically covers everything, it's very impressive actually. So from now on when people ask me anything about Williston I am going to tell them to read it.
Even if you are not interested in employment as a dancer in Williston you should read it. It is very interesting. It sums up parts of my own life pretty well. Click here

Tonight me and Chhaya are staying in with some ice cream. I am also having a date night with Sheldon and Harvey (TMZ). I am feeling tired and need to recharge before I go back to work.
A warm bath and some sleep sound like a plan.
