Been studying ancient grains Farro Emmer, Einkorn (Little Farro), and Spelt (Big Farro) which is quite different. When I bought some grains a few years to save for emergencies I purchased some Spelt and Kamut but never learned about Emmer and Einkorn. Each website gives a little different slant on them. One site said that places in Italy felt that Einkorn was inferior to Emmer and fed to their livestock. But other sites do not mention that at all and say that Einkorn came first (with only two sets of chromosomes) and that Emmer (with twice the number of chromosomes) is a cross of Einkorn and a particular wild grass. And then Spelt is a cross of Emmer and another wild grass and has (again) twice the chromosomes as Emmer) which is the same number of chromosomes as modern wheat. Modern wheat has been hybridized about a thousand times in the last 100 years and is inflammatory to our bodies because of it.

Please folks, save some water and food for emergencies. Things are only going to get more expensive anyway, and some things may become scarce. Consider how you might grow some vegetables even if it is in a container on your balcony. You may not be able to grow them right now in cold weather but you can start preparing. Buy some heirloom seeds so when you harvest something you can regrow from the seeds. There are many Youtube videos about how to do this. I do not have a green thumb and the only thing I am growing right now is sweet potato slips. They are so different than regular potatoes in that you put the pointy end of them in water, let it sprout and then plant the sprouts. You can use toothpicks poked in them so just 1/2 is down in the water, which you usually need to change every couple of days. I also am letting some regular potatoes develop some little sprouts before I plant them either whole or cut them and plant sections with an eye or two. Either kind needs to be organic because otherwise, they will have sprout inhibitor sprayed on them.

The prepping sites on Youtube I like best are City Prepping for his calm level headed advice, and Alaska Prepper for his knowledge of what's really happening out there. Even the Provident Prepper has a lot of good information and they are sweet gentle Mormons. I tired of Canadian Prepper because of his inflammatory scare tactics. I do not buy freeze-dried meals because they are very expensive and seem low on protein. It seems "better for me" to buy things to put together for meals. About 10 years ago I did buy some dried fruit powders and a few #10 cans of individual items, but since I live in a very hot valley and have little space, no basement or root cellar those things have about reached their maximum longevity. The 25 to 30-year life span they talk about is at 70 degrees, not 90 or 100. An attic or my south-western facing garage are the worse places to store food. I believe it is best to stay in your own living place if possible in an emergency but wise to develop a bag to quickly take with us (for about 3 days) if we absolutely have to leave due to fire or something like that. I need to refresh mine. I don't leave it in my car because so many are being broken into. City Prepper has a free pamplet to download to help.

I strayed from my strict eating by having desserts 3 days plus ate Chinese last night and put on 2 lbs. That delicious pineapple I had a week or so ago, triggered my sweet tooth. Even though I froze the last 2 portions and lost an lb or two, a couple of days later I had some things that just do not fit with losing weight with my sedentary lifestyle.

Met my 2nd goal 3 days late and am thrilled. That makes 10 lbs. in 2 months this time around in my yo-yo dieting life. I know when I reach my ultimate goal I will not be able to fully keep on strict maintenance, but I sure would like to get back in my wardrobe even if I don't really go anywhere anymore. I'm telling myself to not "take out" the side sewing of any of my summer clothes. I wasn't at my lowest last summer so I'm guessing a fair percentage will fit, at least the separates. I don't really wear dresses much anymore since I was always bottom-heavy (and now thick in the middle) and have lost 3 1/2" in height. At only 5' tall dresses are becoming impossible. At 60 they were still fine, but gravity finally caught up with me.

I stayed up late last night spreading “Gourmet Cassis Gel” onto 7 dryer sheets for dehydrating. I don't know if is worth doing. Making fruit leather out of it may not really make it much smaller. It is sauce, like cranberry sauce but only made out of black currants, so doesn't have as much water content as fresh fruit. I better study fruit leathers a little: I think they only keep about 6 months unrefrigerated. I don't know what I will ever use it for even though it is delicious, because of the sugar content but do want to have some storage items in case of emergency. I just don't have much refrigerator or freezer space.

Yesterday I took 6 big bags of groceries to the gal I help supply. She had some intestines taken out and is not doing well and can't cook. She has had strokes and is in much pain from sciatica. Thank you, Lord, I can still get around (even though in pain). It is wonderful to be independent. Do I dare mention without causing strong reactions from anyone that my husband erased almost all my e-mails? Once I get on a roll here telling how things are, I reveal too much. I was furious for about 2 minutes but maybe it's not any worse than what he's been doing the last month. Things will probably get worse before they get better. I feel like something is changing in me. I'm tired, not trying to reason with him anymore, and wondering what it will look like or at what point things will change. Also, I haven't been scared for months even though he did get "physical" with me again 2 weeks ago. I can only say that because I am anonymous here on FS. Inside I think I am distancing emotionally to some extent. In the past, I felt that was wrong. It doesn't feel wrong now because it's not from resentment. I still want to be kind and gentle but am not seeking approval or even companionship. There really isn't much, and there has not been a kiss or hug for months. If you haven't read my other journals don't bother telling me what I should be doing differently because my mind, heart, and intentions are set. With what strength I have I want to finish my course with honor. I want to be solicitous and am still knocking myself out caring for him, but it's harder to feel warmth or protectiveness. I always said I don't want to live without him: the love of my life since I was 16 and 60 years of marriage. I am old and getting weaker, and never wanted to live alone but so far, tough like a piece of old leather. Our daughter wouldn't have me. I have a picture of an upside-down cow with his legs straight up that says "I'm fine". Love it.

Almost back to what I was a week ago: finally, and down 9 lbs exactly from Dec 22nd. At my weight that is worthy and I am pleased. It was the pineapple (plus 1 mango) that made it go up at such low calories. I will not reach my goal of 128.5 by Monday, but I met my first goal. Now I will make a goal of 1 lb by the 22nd so I can be down 10 lbs in 2 months. Then I will make a goal of another 4 lbs by March 21st, my husband's Birthday and our daughter coming to visit him from out of state (124.8). I am trying very hard to fill up the large blue recycling trash container by tomorrow night for Monday trash day, so my husband doesn't throw more of my things away. It's been sitting in the garage all week like a giant warning instead of in our trash area. I prefer to pick and chose myself the things I like the least and am willing to let go of. Last week I was praying so hard that the big trash truck would come down the street on the other side of our corner house so he couldn't fill it up the 2nd time like he did the week before.

In 2018 it took me 6 months to lose 8 lbs, from 132 to 124. At least today I am back to the day before yesterday's weight. Of course, the lower I go the slower the weight loss will be. A month ago I made a goal of 130 by Valentine's Day not specifying ounces, then later saw it was just possible I could go down to 128.5 if I kept losing at the same rate. I was 129.8 for a couple of days, but since I went back up I will never make it. My body is mostly fat, with little muscle, and crepe paper thin bones. At 5' tall and small-boned my RDI is 1200 calories a day, so 1000 calories isn't unreasonable if I'm dieting, especially if it is high in vegetables and protein. Most people should not eat less than 1200 but I am small but with 3 leaky valves, I need all the heart muscle I still have and am pleased to make my original goal.
We went to a doctor's appointment for my husband yesterday, then lab work and an x-ray of his hurting hip. He wanted to go for a late lunch to a bar-b-que place, and we shared a salad and a ginormous sandwich with 3 kinds of meat. I only had 3 or 4 little bites of bread and filled up on salad and meat which was spicier than expected. It was very heavy on my stomach so neither of us ate any dinner or anything else.
Some have expressed I need protein, and I agree. Usually, I eat a lot of protein, more than recommended for Keto. In 2018 when I scared myself driving with a feeling of "mushy brain", I tried to go Keto and Intermittent Fasting. I never achieved strict Keto because of too much protein but I believe the IF helps my brain, so I plan to continue with that, mostly 16/8 with an 8-hour eating window. I need my brain to stay independent. Thank you, Lord, you help and support me, holding me in your hand.
