in control?

Seldom does it happen, but occasionally, I feel like I've got a handle on life.  Today...I feel that way.  Oh, there are things that need to be done...the to do list is long as usual :)--laundry, work outside, baking for the upcoming Relay for Life Friday, general housework, need to catch up the checkbook, etc...but overall I feel a sort of calm.  Hope it's not the one before the storm!?

I got in high gear last week and started working on my dieting too.  Feels good to be in CONTROL of this too.  Honestly, I'm really doing a VERY low cal, crash diet balancing protein, fat and carbs. LOL!  --so not funny, but I want some results and we'll see what happens.  I've maintained my 28 lb. weight loss (within just about 5 lb) for about eight months.  I got complacent and just haven't taken it to the next level...I'm serious about it now.  Very.  In fact, it's DANG HARD!  But I'm seeing results, so I'm happy with that.  I still have 1 1/2 month to kick my brother in laws tail in our wager! 

Today, I'm going to get my house chores done and tidy up the Whimsy Shoppe --it's a HUGE mess of thread and fabric scraps after I shipped out lots of these last week!

(this is the black damask pattern of my Scrapbook Storage Slipcovers)

Love making these...such a great addition to inspire YOUR scrapbook space and stow your stuff!

This one is home with the sickies today...I'm betting she'll be miraculously better by noon or so :)  Pretty girl.

 

She will be adding these gorgeous flower accessories to the Whimsy Shoppe soon! 

Eleven going on...well, just growing WAY too fast. 

Cash and I are off to check out seedlings and then get busy with the rest of the day!

Hope you have a great one! xoxo

Oh, I love it when life feels in control!

I just wanted to tell you that everyone at my sister's wedding LOVED the jewelry you did for me! I got many compliments and I told them all that you made it.

Also, you mentioned, Relay for Life Friday. I'm the Team Development Chair for our event and so I'm curious what it is your Relay Friday is? I'm always looking for more great ideas!
