Don't you just hate wasting days!!!!! That's what I have been doing way to much of lately!
I find myself not doing anything for the whole day, what a shame. Life is just going by so fast now it seems not right to let a day go by without having it being enjoyed.
I am going to try and make an effort to make the days count in some way...... like my Dad always said "Your dead a long time".
Anyway, I wanted to post this picture of this cute as hell sweater I got at the thrift store. The pictures don't do it justice, it has a staggered design which I think adds a little zing to it instead of wearing a plain ole regular sweater. I paid $3.00 for it and I love it. Now to be honest with you I really didn't have any money to waste on another sweater, since my husband has now been out of work over 16 weeks and has ran out of unemployment. But it was one of those things that if I had left there in the store I would not have been able to think straight, Do you all get like that? Ever since that dress I tried on and put back on the rack to think about and someone came in and swooped it up as soon as I walked away from it (I still dream of that dress), I don't want that kind of thing on my brain again. I get such a lift from going to the thrift stores, it brightens my entire day. I have been very down and depressed, not with just my husband having no job but also with my weight and over all body! I weigh 134 but I hate the way that I feel, my clothes are tight and just don't fit like they used to. I NEED to lose about 10 pounds to get me back into my frisky fighting weight : ) I am reading "Reshaping it all" by Candace Cameron Bure. I am enjoying it and hoping to pick up a few pointers, I'll let you know after I am finished with it what I thought of it.
I am also obsessed with the wrinkles that have appeared under my neck!!!!!! It really makes me look so old! I HATE it! Okay can you tell I am having body issues. If anyone has any tips on products that might help in this area I'd love to try them. I think since we have been very cold here in Florida and I have been using the electric heater it has been drying out my skin so the wrinkles are really popping out. Of course I could wear scarfs to hid the neck - Does that mean another trip to the thrift store ...... : )
