Check-In:

I still don't weigh myself regularly because I will become obsessed with that number and that's not healthy. I like to do my checks by how my clothes fit. Yesterday I went to Old Navy and got a pair of jeans in the size 18! I personally don't like Old Navy because I could never find my size; even though they offer plus sizes. Needless to say I was kinda excited. I also got a wrap dress that is a contender for Easter service.

My person and I went back to the gym this week and he gave me the business. I don't mind because he pushes me when I need to be pushed. It definitely wasn't how it was in the past...I've gotten very lazy but we're working on that. The day before the workout we weighed ourselves and i weighed 272 but when I measured my waist today I've lost an inch. (I hate scales!!!)

This week has been very slow business wise but I've been very busy. A good busy. Next week can only be better because it only gets better from here.

March National Reading month!!! I strongly encourage all adults to take the time to read! I have a cousin who tries to read an hour a day and she calls it "her time". I try to read every day but I am considering picking a set time like she does. I read to Panda every morning (if we're on time) before school in the parking lot. I never know how I'm going to feel at bedtime so this has worked better for us.

This week we went to the library and got library cards. I ended up having to pick his book because he was more into the computers (games). And it's crazy because he's only 5 years old. His school is playing a game were at the end of each week the kids can turn in their reading points for the week and get a prize. We didn't get to because his teacher didn't like the chart they were given so we get a new chart today. I know I look forward to playing with Panda. (Mommy likes to read!!!) We were also given a Family Activities chart that we are going to start today. Today's activity is: Research Michigan State Parks and read about one. I'm going to write down everything we do for each activity.

How is your March going so far Fae Friends?

Love & Light!!!
