LOL Jenn, I'm the same way.
It was less of a "hiding" thing for me though...
I just really didn't want to look like 10 lbs
of groceries in a 5-lb sack.
Ya' know?

i have the same clothes issues.
when i wear clothes that actually fit well, i have to really concentrate on not tugging, adjusting, etc. i'm used to wearing the bagging crap (like that would hide how fat i was/am).

I always remember the scene from Steel Magnolias where they were making fun of the woman with the big butt and tight dress dancing. She said something like "it looks like two pigs under a blanket"

I used to be the same. The bigger the better. But I'm thinking now that I may never wear another "big shirt".....I'm loving buying the fitted stuff.

I AM TIRED!! Man what a week. I am on the verge of losing it and giving in to some ugly ugly food. Only 5hrs and the day will be over. I am holding on by a thread.

This morning I did my normal walk (been walking 2 miles a day) and then had to bring a friend of mine from Church to her radiation treatment. She is such an amazing person. Here she is going to radiation 5x a week and Chemo once a week. Having cancer in many different places and she is hosting guests at her house all week including a missionary from somewhere I cant recall and wanting to make snickerdoodles for my kids birthdays! She had to shave her head on Sunday and is totally fine with it and looking cute sporting a little hat today.

So I left with her at 10:15 and drove her to the hospital and back...takes a total of 3hrs. Then I had volunteer duty at school unti 2:30 at which time I took my 3 kids and 2 other girls home fed them snack, changed them and got them to dance lessons at 3pm. I had a shake at 7:30, 10am, bar at 1pm and it was time to eat at 4pm when I got home from dance lessons so condisering I was no where near ready to get dinner on the table I did what I had to do and slugged a shake. That throws off dinner for DH and I as he is at football practice with our son now until 7pm. At which time I am due to eat again. This has been a horrid day. I am kicking myself for not planning better. I seriously cant take many days like this. I feel like a chicken with its head cut off. I am now off to walmart because I have no water in the house and a Jenn with no water is not a happy Jenn.

Oh and to top this all off I stopped taking my anxiety meds because they were slowing my WL. Getting skinny and losing my mind all at the same time!!

I know, I wasnt home at all today either. I might be around tomorrow, I'll get on Aol if I am. Tom is off the rest of the week so I'm sure we will have some kinds of nonsense to do around here.

I hope you are going to get another chair or someone is going to have to sit on the floor. He did a great job, I absolutely love it. The desk itself is quite snazzy. I am begining to think Tom and Craig were also seperated at birth. I think Tom would love to be home building and doing things like Craig gets to.

Our family room is all knotty pine walls. We have a coal stove in there so their is one corner where it is all brick work on teh flore and half way up the wall. It is the only part of the house that is really us...the country look and feel.

LOL @ redecorating..it is all we have done basically for 4 yrs since we moved in LOL

Our whole house is a cabin, we have a wood stove in the living room and there will be one in the office as well. When the new deck is covered there will be one there for an outdoor living room lol

I love my Carpenter Husband!

My hubby isn't a carpenter, but he built our cabin as a hobby with the help of his friends. It's a good feeling to know that he put so much of his (and their) sweat equity into our little cabin. It has knotty pine walls, too....everything's wood. We also tried to do it as economically as possible and you wouldn't believe the things that were just given to us....such as our kitchen was free from a friend who was redecorating their's. We have a friend with a furniture store who gave us a used sofa and coffee table.....we have a client/friend who has semi-permanantly loaned us 2 elk heads, a turkey, and a bear rug.....my husband even got the shower for free.....had to pay for the potty, though, lol.

I love your new office, Reginia! Your hubby has talent....keep him.

I just noticed that this is your journal, Jenn and not Reginias, lol.....can't keep you two straight, hehe. Sorry for the highjack.

No biggie. I think we are confusing everyone lately. I think I read hers and she reads mine just as often as we read our own.
