Sew what!

Okay, it's Thursday evening and I haven't worked out at all this week. SEW WHAT! :) I have worked on the freakishly huge quilt that I started a few months ago. I attached a picture of what I have together so far. It should be smooth going from here, though. Mostly just assembling the pieces and sewing them together.

I'll get back on track next week and work out 3 times. I did do pretty good watching my diet, though ... and the scales show that I'm holding steady or even down another pound. I guess chasing a 15 month old around is some sort of exercise. right? :)

When I am finished with this quilt project, I'll get started doing watercolor again. I've been wanting to paint something big! I got into a rut of doing small art cards (2.5 in x 3.5 in). Those things sold really good on ebay for a year or so. When I had to stop doing art for a year, I just never got started selling again. Maybe this spring I can do that again. It was a little bit of spending money and I enjoyed having it. Actually, I think I bought our bowling shoes and David's bowling ball with ebay money. Not bad for "free" money. :)

Guess I'll swig on this bottle of water and then float off to bed.

by the way, I saw a waterbed at Furniture Row today ... I didnt even know they still made them. Sew what! :)

Self Tanner and Shaving ..... part two!

After I went to bed last night, I realized that I titled my blog "self tanner and shaving" ... but didnt talk about shaving!

Not that its a big deal or anything... but I can't leave it undone! :)

Since my legs are now semi-tanned .... I find that I'm much more inclined to actually shave them! Now, I wonder if when I get skinny (yep, when .. not if!)... will I REALLY love to shave my skinny, tanned legs?? haha ha

Happy Easter!

Self Tanner and Shaving

I use to love to lay out in the sun and get a nice golden tan. I would tan quickly, easily and hardley ever burn. Those were my young and dumb days ..... young enough to wear a bathing suit in public and dumb enough to lay out and get a suntan. :)

I guess I'm old and smart now. Old enough to know that I shouldnt be wearing a bathing suit ... EVER ... and smart enough to use a great lotion with a hint of self tanner!

I love the Vaseline lotion with self tanner. It really works! I started just putting it on from the knees down, so that when I went to work out ... the little bit of leg that shows from my capri workout pants would be tan. Now I look freaky .... because I've started putting the lotion on all the way up, but the top half is behind! I have a farmer tan on my legs. Ugh!

I guess my theme song will hold true ... "She's so vain!". Yeah baby. Yeah.
