peace + love + cupcakes
GPOY: To quote James Brown… I feel good.
I think that she had a fantastic Mother’s Day weekend.
I’m exhausted.
Flashback Friday - this past
Sunday’s Biggest Loser Run.
The pictures were free for us to download. For a 5K race, they had so many photographers on the course. I’ve never seen that many for a race of 2,000 people.
My first thought after seeing my pictures: oh god! I look like I have t-rex arms.
Second thought: look at me run!
Have to work on making the second thought the priority & completely ignore the first.
Flashback Friday - 1987
My cousin & I had a joint First Communion. I looked so serious. And that dress…
Flashback Friday - July 2010
I started getting serious about my health in September of 2010 so in this picture I was at my heaviest. This was taken in Saint Petersburg Russia in front of The Church of Our Savior on the Spilled Blood. I was looking at pictures from that trip & they are mostly of my family, landmarks and food. Not many of me. I was so worried going on that 12 day cruise on how I would manage all the walking during the excursions. I am surprised I did as well as I did but I was often on the look out for places to sit. I remember in this picture I thought it would take forever a day to walk to the church. It sure felt like it did.
One day I would love to be able to go back and experience this cruise again but this time being able to truly enjoy it rather than worry about holding everyone back.
Flashback Friday Part Deux - August 2008
A comparison to my last post. I was so uncomfortable in my own skin back then.
The one thing in common in both pictures is that I’m using the same wristlet.
Flashback Friday - Yesterday at the Robert Mondavi Winery
There are days that I have a hard time seeing my progress. I look in the mirror & I’m more critical of myself now that I’m more aware of my body. When my friend sent me this picture, I was surprised at how I looked. While I still have ways to go, I’m happy & proud with where I am today.
Flashback Friday - Christmas Edition. Oh the early 80s.
The current picture was taken last night at a friend’s dinner party.
Can’t wait to see what 2013’s picture looks like.
Flashback Friday - last year’s Thanksgiving walk with my cousin.
My Do Life shirt is way too big now (even though I wear it to work out) & those workout pants have been retired. Woot woot!
Doing life Thanksgiving style with @nadialeon Happy Thanksgiving!
