Day 65
So I was leaving my house this morning and this cute lil puppy came up to me and I couldn't help but pick her up and play with her..... she jumped in my car and I snapped this photo with my cell phone and text my boyfriend with the photo and this question "Can I keep it?" his response...... "Um hell no"
Day 66
So today was a very EYE opening day for me...... For all of you that know me you know I have struggled with my weight since I was 10. In the past 2 years or so I have lost over 70 pounds. And continue with my weight loss today, however, I still feel like I haven't embraced my new body. Today was a prime example of my "size" denial. So I walked into my favorite clothing store for larger women- TORRID! The sales lady working there asked me what I was looking for, I told her some jeans. So proceeded to ask me what size I was wearing that day, I said 16, she said "oh my goodness, why are your wearing that size, You are easily a size 12!" I was like you are crazy, I more like a large 14, anyways, she proceeded to get a bunch of size 12's and I picked 14's and I tried on the 14's and I felt comfortable with them, but then I tried on the 12's and was like what the hell... these fit too... The sales lady saw the 12's on me and said "See that is how jeans are supposed to fit, your butt looks great in those, now that we can actually see it!" I laughed and bought the jeans. As I was leaving the lady said "You do know you won't be able to shop here much longer?" My eyes got big and I kind of freaked out, this store had been my comfort for so long that I replied to her "Where am I going to shop now?" She said "You go to all those stores you haven't been able to shop at and you will see that you can now fit in them" With tears in my eyes I smiled and left my fat girl store........
Here is me wearing my size 12's
Day 67
We were downtown at the TJMAXX and I looked over and saw this cute owl mug, Robert said you like it? I said of course I do! He picked it up and bought it for me.... He's so sweet to me. It's the little thing right.....
Day 68
So My mother has been making these beautiful little bird baths out of plates she is finding at the goodwill and this just happened to be a hummingbird bath that I turned into a cake dish, it's small so I felt fig newtons would be a perfect lil treat to put in there..... love this....
Day 69
SO dangerous for my bosses to have me working the jewelry department at work (TJMAXX). I fell in love with these earrings and just had to buy them....I really love working there, so many cool thing to look at....
So I have inherited some old records from my grandfather and grandmother and I was going through them today and I found this wicked cool see through yellow record, I thought photographing it against my red shag carpet would really look cool....
More downtown photos, I have just printed some on canvas and I can not wait to see how they turn out....
