Damn!

Sitting around online while my LO is sleeping looking through nail tutorials and pictures of what people have done, seeing blogs that are specifically for nails, holy crap I have nail envy!!!

This is bad, I feel like this could turn out to be something I would want to hid from people, like a drug addict hiding in the corner with whatever drug they use...except I'll be in the corner painting my nails all "leave me alone!!!! I HAVEEEEE to do this!!! just let me get my fixxxxx!!!"

Geez...damn all you creative people giving me more and more ideas....my old man is gonna kill me ;)

my nail obsession

Doing my nails has become a new recent obsession of mine, I'm reading nail blogs to get ideas and wish lists for new colors, I'm watching tutorials on all different designs, and I'm drooling when I walk past nail polish in the stores...good lord!

On a good note, I have been doing my nails while my munchkin is napping, it does take some patience to make sure it looks good, which for me is normally not something I have much of. But I have come to realize it puts me in a bit of a trance, I focus solely on my nails and making them look good and forget all the troubles of my life, even if it is only for a few minutes at a time.

Went to Walgreens last night, just for a lighter for our sparklers, and had to walk past polish, there are a TON that I would love to have! But I was good **for now** and left without buying a new one.

My last mani was light blue shimmer polish with pink polka dots, it started to chip so I re-did them today, orange with black tiger stripes!

I guess I'm feeling a bit wild today ;) The orange polish is called "cloud 9" and is by Sinful Colors, I'm not normally and orange kinda girl, but I love it!!



Happy painting!

dammed if you do dammed if you don't

Ugh the never ending struggle of weight loss...

I am actually trying to do it the RIGHT way with changing my eating habits and working out...well it doesn't seem to be working very well at the moment, which is very frustrating!

I started back on birth control pills a little less than a month ago, and since then I have seen NO weight loss, AT ALL! So like the title says...dammed if you do dammed if you don't!

No way my eggo wants to be preggo right now, I love my son and would love to give him a little sister someday, but right now mama needs to focus on getting her ass out of school!

I've had people tell me to go the easy route, one told me the "only" option for her was weight loss surgery, well lets think about that...for one I'm a mother so any surgery gives me the risk of not waking up and being able to care for my child, and that is terrifying! Two no way in hell I have the money for that, and three I am technically in the range where I could, but I feel like it's a cop-out, does that make sense?

Another person told me they are doing the HCG diet, basically you are supposed to take these drops, and it is supposed to eat up the fat already on your body, and you cannot eat more than 500 calories a day, yea you heard right, ONLY 500 a day!!! Yea my breakfast was more than that this morning!! (and all I had was eggs, an english muffin with pb and a banana!!) It does seem to be working for her for now, and that's great, but once again, not for me. I don't want to deprive my body of what it needs to not go into starvation mode :/

So I bitch and complain pretty much every day about not being able to sit around and be a pig, and that I need to work out, BUT even with my weight being such a royal pain in my ass, kinda like Pippa it seems...I know that my body is becoming healthier by the day, and at some point my body will give in and this weight will come off!

Hopefully sooner than later!
