theta mom thursday

so i've had lots of little oportunitites to take time for myself this passed month.  mostly, i've been working out!!  ugh, i hate it!  but my body is looking better and better every day!  i'm itching to get my sew on, but by the time i'm done with my workout and shower its too late--and i'm ready for bed!  so i've got a new plan!  i will work out on saturday mornings--while the rest of the house still sleeps.  and after the kids go to bed, i will sew away!!  that's the plan at least!  my sister's wedding is in june, and at this point i will not be able to fit in the dress that hangs in her closet--yikes!  i've only got about 12ish more lbs to lose.  so i've been working my butt off!!  i don't even care anymore if my hubby sees me! 

i'm also setting a goal to try and get dressed--in anything other than sweats--at least 3xs per week.  i had my little shopping spree at old navy yesterday(9 new tops, 4 tank tops, a sweater, 2 scarves, a handbag, and a partridge in a pear tree!)  i have no excuse.  i think it will be nice to do that for myself.  i get so sad just walking around in sweats day after day.  yes, its easy and comfortable--but it makes me feel like crap!  i purchased all comfy casual --but still cute-- clothes...no excuses.  now, i can't promise that i will have make up on, or my hair in anything but a bun....but getting dressed is a start!!

  3. Oh how I wish I could exercise... instead I eat junk. Just a lot of stress and next to no time. It is not a fun thing to do, but don't you love the results? I hope your plan for Saturday works out!

  6. If you keep it up, I'm sure you'll be able to drop those 12 lbs by June!

    I hate exercising too! It's like torture! But what I hate most are people that actually enjoy it!

  7. Ooh...gotta love a shopping spree! It sounds like you've got a great plan. I can relate to the sweats, since I could stay in pajamas all day easily (but feel yucky about it at the same time)!
