Just put that address on picture to go to our quality mall messes are piling up around me making it hard to relax and get well. i can't cuddle grant or cate- they need to stay well- so they are steering clear of me. i am bored and tired and achy. i know some people don't love the whole valentine's thing. but it is so fun to me! i don't care if the greeting card company made it up- any day where i get to be pretty, treated with sweetness, have a declicious dinner and some romance is right on in my book. remember how i was so proud that my room was clean and i was knitting? well, i still am. it was the first time i realized that things don't always go how you think they will. and that it all can turn out better than you imagined. Yummy fabric ready to ship i was born in orange county, where my parents had lived in the same house for like 20 years. they had both lived in so cal all their lives. and i cheat, like, alot. well, usually i ease up on weekends. but i feel so crappy and bloated again that i can't wait to start eating right on monday but i have kind of had to tell myself, this is just the new lifestyle. and if i want to indulge every now and again i'm going to. cause i'd rather die than not be able to have some chips and guac or a slice of cake every now and again. so if i eat like this 90% of the time then i've noticed that my body or the scale doesn't mind if i wander in my choices a bit the other 10%. exercising everyday helps with this, too. i feel like it's a great trade off- feeling great and a regular period for a little self control. what a few hours on a sunny day can do for you... bet it made me happy. and then i realized. i love her. so much. Off to the kindergarten valentine party hard to find? only a little. i've met some truly kindred spirits in my life so far. especially my two nicoles. (well, coco i not so much met as i was born to the same parents). i love them girls and their cute purses. and again, when you are at a good weight and having regular cycles, you can absolutely add in a lot more whole wheat and whole grain foods, as well as all fruits and vegetables and other "good carbs" like beans. if your cycles get a little kooky or you gain weight, that's when you know you need to reduce again. project 31 is rolling along. i have donations for every single item i need for the 31 newborn kits and lots of fabric donations and i will sew until there are 31 baby quilts too! thank you SO much, i was overwhelmed by the awesome response. packages are starting to arrive! i will be sure to post some pictures when i get it all together and ready to take to the humanitarian center. my heart is happy. I'll show you what i've been working on soon- they're presents and i have to give them away first. have a nice monday! confession :: i miss saved by the bell feeling so inspired Buoy even more obsessed with flickr than usual of late the girl loves a project. i mean LOVES. it was like so fun to her to print them off, plan how she wanted to present them, go to the store for candy, sign, and put them together. she just bossed me around and made sure i tied the string right. is this MOLLO goal: peaceful nights, productive days acre of land is my favorite song of his. again, happy things. Taking the valentines, happy girl ready to share the love. the girl loves chocolate milk. grant and i listened and danced to his music on valentine's day.
