Procrastination Just made me VERY Happy

     So I procrastinate. I'm sure I'm not the only one guilty of it, and most times, I would say it's not the most desirable of traits, but there it is.I have to say though, today my procrastination saved me money, and just made my day. So As I was getting ready to go out this morning, and discovered, I need to wash my jeans...I do procrastinate Laundry ALL the time. I dug in my drawer and found a one size too small pair of jeans. Feeling depressed about the size I used to be I prepared myself to suck it in, and struggle as I pulled them up. Before I knew it, I was buttoning them up. SO I went into my closet where I had hid all my smaller sized jeans, and tried them on. YUP, they fit!

     So here is the deal. I had seen a difference on the scale, and I was pretty proud. But I hadn't really SEEN a difference in myself, but apparently it's there. I had a post a LONG time ago, about how I was losing weight, and I haven't really said more since. Since my starting point, I've lost, 15lbs now. I'm excited and have been paying a lot of attention to getting more healthy. The 15lbs, came off mostly from a change of diet. Concentrating on healthier options, and portion sizes, and I'm learning as I go. My exercise hasn't been tough, it's been really gentle yoga, to wake me up and help relax me, and for short periods of time. So I'll likely be stepping up exercise to keep this going.

Wanted to share my happy moment on a Monday :D

K, Love ya, Bye!

Christmas Progress Report #1

 

  A few days late but none the less here it is, my progress report. If you followed the Christmas blog right through to the end you know what this is. If not, here is a little info.

     My Christmas Blog series started in September, with a 100 day countdown. BUT I did stress that I do stuff through the year, and you would be seeing Christmas posts through the year. So here is what I got done for the month of January:

Food: No, nothing on the food front, way too early for that.

Gifts:
      I have pretty solid idea of a gift I'm giving next year, but it's also one I'm going to make, so I can watch for supplies.

Crafts: #1 priority is above here, but I have so many potential craft ideas it's insane

Planning: Nothing really there either, again, a bit early.

Organizing: For starters, I actually organized my pinterest boards, and ended up with like 3 Christmas boards, so I got more organized that way for sure. But my biggest accomplishment for the month of January was actually taking everything down and organizing it. My Christmas Stuff is more organized than EVER before, and it's going to make it easier for next year....until I find stuff through the year and make a big mess down there...not only possible, likely.

K, Love Ya, Bye!
