Creative and other things.

Creative

I have been feeling really creative lately. The problem is that there is not much time to do anything creative. Yesterday I had some friends over and I scrapbooked. If you have not figured it out, I love to scrapbook. I have a scrapbook room. I could run a store out of here. Really. Not kidding. But back to yesterday, I was able to create and just unwind.

I am at a point that I have to stop, get the craft room in order and then be able to have some time to just sit and create. I am looking forward to some down time this week to be able to do that.

Other Things

I have lost 18.4 pounds. Clothes are beginning to be too big. That is a nice feeling. I was discussing with Stacy today the thing that clicks and makes you realize that you have to lose weight. See I am a big girl. No one (but Stacy now and she will NEVER tell you) just how much I weigh. This includes DH. Why because I was too embarrassed to tell anyone. I hit that point where I decided that it was enough in August. I want to live, I want to run and have fun, I want to walk into a store and buy that cute thing I see off the rack and not have to go to the plus size section. I WILL get there.

I also wanted to give a shout out to Stacy, for making that choice. For choosing to change her life. I can not tell you how that empowerment makes a person feel. You have to experience that type of empowerment yourself, for whatever you need to choose to be empowered about.

So to all my readers, go empower yourself. Make that choice you have been fighting (whatever it may be) and do it! You can and you WILL :)

Hey, That's so awesome you have lost 18.4 lbs. You go girl! It is so hard to do it, but I am glad you are doing it for yourself and for your family too. Be proud of yourself; it's a major accomplishment.
