I'm incredibly frustrated with the whole weight-loss thing. In fact, I'm so frustrated I'm trying something completely different. It's called the Full Plate Diet. I've only just discovered this through a totally random set of fun ocurrences (thank you red_girl_42!), so it's all new and different, but so far, it feels good. I'm still reading and researching ( Read more... )

When I sat down, I felt like I had a big post in me. Now? Not so much ( Read more... )

This whole not getting my needs met bit sucks major ass.

Determined.
Lost.
Lonely.
Sad.
Cautious.
Optimistic.

This beautiful Sunday afternoon finds me happier than I have been in ages. I am truly peaceful and content. Pandora is spinning my favorite channel, my house is open to the fresh, green scents of spring, and I am slowly learning how to sew. I am also enjoying a late lunch of hot curry chicken, tomatoes and ruby red grapefruit. Here. Lemme show you ( Read more... )

It's been a while. I know. But, thankfully, I live on.

I went to Baltimore to visit the singular vulpicula and baronalejandro. Delightful. Just delightful.

I am starting to run seriously, which is probably fairly amusing to those who witness it. I have my first 5K of the year in 14 days. I plan to do another 5K, a 10K and then, hopefully, a relay triathlon. We'll see.

Le sigh.

Coffee is poured and hot, oatmeal (though not on my low-carb diet thingie) was wonderful, and now for playing The Sims unashamedly while the snow continues to fall outside. I'm surrounded by toasty kitties, too!

I has all kinds of happies!

Anybody out there ever use www.elance.com? I'm trying to supplement my income by getting my writing feet wet in the freelance ocean. I signed up ($10 a month - I thought that sounded better than any of those work at home jobs) and I'm working on getting my profile set up. If anyone has used Elance and has any suggestions, I'm WAY open to them. Good ( Read more... )

I have had a very relaxing weekend. Yesterday, I spent oodles of time with the baby in the Kitteh Nursereh just playing and loving. I hate that I have to sit on the cold, hard tile to be with her, but I started taking in a pillow and quilt to sit on. No matter what I took in with me, my backside was numb after a while, but it's worth it cause she ( Read more... )
