Well ladies and gents, it's frickin' cold outside. LOL I think it's supposed to get down to like 7 tonight. It would definitely suck to be an animal tonight. I like the cold, don't get me wrong, I just don't enjoy not being able to get warm. The main reason I enjoy the cold is because I can wear the warm clothes and sit by the fire. It makes it feel all cozy in the house, well when it's warm, which it's not...not right now anyway. The wood burning stove is not putting out enough heat at the moment. But I'll fix that shortly. ;)
Well on to another topic...Christmas. It was lots of fun. The kids got so much stuff we will have to get rid of old stuff so we have room for everything. But hey, that's what Christmas is for right? LOL I got lots of wonderful stuff as well. My husband always finds me the best jewelry and clothes. He knows what I like almost more then I do. Which is wonderful cause he always gets me awesome stuff. He's just the bestest husband ever anyway. So yeah, Christmas was good.
So next on my list of topics was my attempt to lose some weight before summer. I started out strong last week, walking a mile every morning and drinking lots of water. But then we had snow days this monday and tuesday and I slept in. So I didn't walk my mile. I'm slacking. But I plan on getting back to it tomorrow. I didn't do it this morning just cause I was so freaking cold I needed to take a shower to warm up. And I hate exercising after taking a shower, then you're all sweaty and the shower was pointless. LOL But tomorrow I will definitely do it again and keep going. I am determined to get into an old pair of jeans I've had forever by summer time. We have changed the way we eat too, lots more fish and less red meat. I haven't been frying anything and we've been eating a lot of fresh veggies. I have almost completely cut out sugar and have been drinking a lot of water. I feel better. But I do still crave sweet things. I usually just drink some crystal light or something to help with that. So as of now I haven't lost any weight yet but I'm working on it. And that's all that really matters right? Right.
Next on my list is making more crafts. I want to do a show in August in Dover again, Ozark Memories Day. And I need to stock up on my stuff to sell. So I plan to have my hemp jewelry as always, maybe some crocheted hats and scarves and possibly baby blankets. I just learned how to make halter tops out of old t-shirts so I'm gonna try to get a lot of those to sell also. I think they will do well. Especially since it will be August and August is really hot in Arkansas. So we'll see. I need to start going to some flea markets and second hand stores to find some cool shirts to use. OH!!! and I am going to start making my own pendants with resin. I think they will sell really well with the hemp necklaces. I am thinking of using real leaves and flowers in them. I think it'll be cool. Plus it'll all be hand made and one of a kind. Can't beat that. :) I hope you all come out when I'm there. My prices are low and it's all good quality stuff.
But anyway..times for me to log off for now. I don't have any followers yet so I don't know who I'm talking to but whoever reads this I hope you enjoyed it. LOL Stay warm people!
