I think since my last post, we've had an early Christmas in AR with my family, a fight with the builder of our home about some land fixing we feel should be done, LG got the worst stomach virus ever, work has been super busy....and I've become obsessed with The Good Wife....obsessed.
Early Christmas was fun....
It was a great trip.
The Good Wife.....I started from the pilot and watched every episode of every season through the current season in four weeks and it's life changing. The DeShazo is hooked as well. I'm pretty sure I need to be Diane Lockhart....or Alicia Florrick. I've dedicated so many hours to this it's ridiculous. I'm dreaming about Lockhart Gardner and whether or not the world can go on if Diane really does accept the judgeship....and what about Will and Alicia??? Why can't they just be together??? Why does she have to "stand by her man" Peter?? He cheated! Multiple times! More importantly, why does The DeShazo want Peter and Alicia together?? That's the real question.
I might be a little passionate about this...maybe psycho...but I can't wait til the next episode on Sunday.
I've watched almost every interview by the cast I could find online and I think about it all the time. I need therapy.
I have such a problem, that while I was shopping for a cream/white colored pea coat, I stumbled upon this..
and had to have it because it looked just like one of Kalinda's jackets.
I know, ridiculous. It is what it is...If I can't be a detective, I should get to dress like one, right?
I can't believe October is almost over....and that means two weeks before I put out my Christmas decor. (For the grinches that say "Thanksgiving hasn't even arrived"...my response is that Christmas is too fabulous and special to only celebrate it a few weeks). Since I lost a lot of my Christmas stuff in the 05/31 storm, I get to spend some time at Hobby Lobby and that makes me super happy and Martinez super scared. (And for those boycotting Hobby Lobby right now- find something else to do with your time- like watching The Good Wife).
For the moment, I'm still celebrating fall....
with sweet potato pie.
Martinez had to go to Arizona for work, so I decided I would have pie for dinner this week.
It's a great choice really.
My sweet girl was finally able to go back to her sitter yesterday. When I picked her up....she immediately asked for ice cream and I have no idea where that came from....but I obliged and had a happy camper:) It's ok every now and then, right? It's only a skinny cow!
Shockingly, she ate that cone like a champ and only her face was sticky.
With Martinez away, LG and I decided to shop. I'm pumped that I can actually try on medium shirts now and not worry that they won't fit !
I finally get to leave the dressing room happy, something far away nearly two years ago. I still have a pair of jeans I can't fit into and that is driving me nuts. I wear size 8 in several styles/brands of pants ....except the one pair I want and the size up is too big. Ugh.
Anyway, going from size 18 to 8 makes me happy and I don't think that will ever leave. Being overweight takes a toll on a person mentally and physically....whether they admit it or not.
I'm trying this stuff.. Plexus Slim. Apparently, a lot of people have lost tons of weight with this drink/pill. At this point...I'm not sold on it. It keeps me with a feeling of being satisfied and I don't want to eat all the time, but the weight isn't falling off- I'm simply maintaining which I've been doing on my own for about 10 months.
I'm not writing it off yet. I do feel like I'm not eating as much....but I'm still waiting on results.
Photos from lately....
Until Next Time...
