I will be updating my blog with new posts in the next couple of days.  Hope you look forward to it.

Updates, updates & more updates

Well looks like I'm back on the market.  I can't say I'm happy or unhappy about it.  It is just the situation.  I'm happy that I've got a great group of friends around me and far away who are supportive and understanding.  I've been really busy lately with work and other aspects of life.  I've been doing all kinds of fun thing with old and new friends.  Hanging out and just having some genuine fun.  I'm really grateful for everything I have in my life.  I have health, happiness, stability and I live in one of the awesomest cities in the world. There is always something new and different for me to do.  What more could a girl ask for?  Planning a trip to Europe again for this summer and maybe a trip to Destin as soon as it warms up. Thinking about meeting a friend in Austin for SXSW.  It would be nice to catch up with my sister and her family and my friend.  My rental house is under contract and it's looking good for me to unload it by the end of March.  I've decided to do some early spring cleaning this weekend and get rid of a lot of clutter in my house.  I'm going to try to get rid of all the things that don't mean a lot to me. Might even put some clothes and shoes on ebay.  I might have a garage sale or take it down to a Goodwill store for all the other junk. I've been thinking that I might consider selling my house and downsizing to a nice little condo in the Marigny or Warehouse district.  I feel like at this point in my life I should do what I've always wanted to do and I'm not that keen on worrying about all the exterior problems I'm going to have to worry about this house.  Anyways I'll post more as I go along.  Might need some help deciding what to keep or get rid of. 

Where did that come from?

So last night I was searching for something to wear and I realized that I had to go looking for my fat jeans in the back of my closet.  Yes, I gained weight and yes I have fat jeans.  I didn't give them all away I kept two three pairs.  I'm now the proud owner of some nice sized love handles.  Haven't seen them in a while and I'm so not happy.  There is absolutely nothing nice about walking around with a muffin top no matter how many you see walking the streets. No mi gusta the ole muffin top.  You'll be seeing me in a lot of black tops because nothing gives the illusion of being thinner than wearing black or at least that's what I believe.  At the end of April I was a size 4 and now I'm a snug 6.  I'm working on the diet and working out but it's going to take a lot of work to get back to my Brazilian bikini wearing days.  My face looks a bit swollen to which definitely doesn't help me because I have a huge head and face to begin with.  It's massive. I'm hoping I catch that bug I had in April where I lost like 3lbs in a week.  It was awesome because I didn't feel sick I just couldn't keep anything in my stomach.  Won't go into detail because it's not pretty but let's just say Immodium solved the problem. Or was it a problem? Anyway, I'd post a picture of me in my bikini to shame myself into shape but I think you'd go blind and I wouldn't want the last thing you see to be me.  Imagine the nightmares.  I'm trying to run a half marathon by the end of February but I can barely run 4 miles right now.  If I can get my ass to run every other day I should be in good shape for Spring Break because nothing says hot like a 30ish woman running around South Padre Island with college kids.  I kid.
