Well I know it is not January anymore and I typically hate anything to do with "resolutions," but I find myself now in my early 30's and missing my body from my 20's. On top of that, I have stared back to school again and I realize that going to night school has its ups and downs and hopefully the up does not include my weight. So here is my mission. I am being realistic that I am not going to lose it overnight and with my busy schedule (two jobs, family, and school) there will not be a lot of time for exercising but I am going to prove to myself and anybody else who might actually read this blog that it can be done on even an impossible schedule like mine. I am scheduled to start my internship in just a little over 6 months so I will make my goal time September 15, 2010. By then, I hope to have lost 20 pounds.
Again, I realize nobody may ever read this blog (which actually would save me some embarrassment) but for sake of holding me accountable to something or somebody, I will be blogging weekly about my successes and failures (who are we kidding, i love chocolate so there will be a few failures along the way). So here we go. A six month count down to a 20-year-old body in my 30's and a more healthy and beautiful me to step out into the workforce again.
This is my mission stable so to speak, so on my next post I will give you more background of what I have been doing for the last 10 years leading up to this shape and hopefully (sorry I am going to need a lot of pep talk for this one), hopefully a before picture if I can muster the confidence to do it.

I finished my purse finally. I gave the last one to my mother so I had to get started on a new one for myself. I was carrying around a small brown purse that I had gotten from a thrift store to use the handles off of which are the handles I used here on the purse. Not too bad for 0.99. Can't buy store bought handles for that price. I really like to recycle purses when I can. I actually have one last thing to do it. I chose to use a button closure and I thought I knew what I wanted on this purse but once I had it finished, it just wasn't quite the right look. So I figure I will find the right button soon enough and then it will be complete. We will see how long I get to carry this purse now before I find a new home for it. Thanks for looking.
I couldn't resist posting this big beautiful tree we saw when visiting a friend in Louisiana. It seems like it has a story to say. The things this tree must have seen.

TOTAL NEGLECT
I must say, I spend more time visiting other people's blogs than I spend attending my own. I am new at this and trying to stay focused. I have been working on my jewelry as the weather has been getting warmer and that makes me less anxious to knit or crochet. Here is my latest piece. Like what you see?
