Saying nothing sometimes says the most.: More like "mountain-day" than Hump-day!

So here I am posting DAYS after I start a blog, which does not surprise me since I never really stuck to writing in a journal/diary daily as a kid. If you're anything like me, you start a new project all excited and looking forward to it, but it never gets complete.

As a kid, mom signed me up for: Ballet, gymnastics, swimming, piano, art classes. Only the art classes survived my short attention span. Which brings me to my next complain about myself: I don't paint/sketch anymore. It's difficult to do so when one doesn't have the space to it. I was never allowed to convert the guest room into an art room, even though we rarely have guests. How stupid, and then there's the basement which lacks the natural light to even enjoy creating art. Some current pending projects I have is to paint paintings for various friends and start that damn scrapbook (all supplies filled in a big shoe box).

So here's my current goal: Remove the useless but beautiful desk in my room and make an art corner and finally put up my easel. That desk was originally bought for studying but all it has does is gather dust. Writing is a great emotional outlet, but painting is better! Wish me luck!

I recently went to an Arbonne party and bought a few supplies for a crazy amount of money, that most sane people would not spend on. I think I've been highly influenced by my aunt who is a wonderful esthetician, and it has always been important for one to take care of their body and most definetely their skin. Yes, I'd love to maintain my youth, but I also want to be very conscious of not only what I put into my body (by ingestion) but also what I put ONTO my skin. It is our largest organ afterall, and it's common sense. You can see how quick lotion can be absorbed into skin, so who knows what we're truly putting into our bodies via our skin. Arbonne is supposed to be a great product, and I'm thrilled to start using it, but no, I will not be posting before-after pictures of my face. No one should be subjected to that.

I say I want to be aware of what i put into my body, well, unfortunately I have not worked out for almost a week now. Being on-call for a whole long weekend kind of limits what you're able to do or where to go. Not only that, stress from applying to new jobs and praying I will get a phonecall to book an interview. There is nothing more important right now. Finally, I am one of those people that can easily stress when their friends stress. For the past few days, I feel as though the stress has manifested into physical symptoms. Nothing hot baths and wine can't cure right?!

I feel like I am back in a rut, and I'm exhausted and tired and extremely lazy. 7K walk with 3 dogs totalling 130 lbs should get me back into the game! It's just so difficult because for me weight loss has been harder than for others, main reason being my thyroid. It has been a hormonal rollercoaster for almost a decade now, and now that i think my thyroid hormones have balanced out, I'd assume weight would start shedding, but it's a battle. Ya'll skinny bitches who have always been skinny always have a lot to say/opinions about weight loss. Frankly, their opinions are irrelevant. Until you've been in a fat-girls shoes, you've got nothing to say. I guess all we can do is focus on what we can do today and not mope about what we did/not do.
