     I need to clean out my closet in a major way.  I am hanging on to too small clothes that only fit when I was literally starving myself.  I'm cool with keeping the size 6 stuff that's just a tad too tight, for motivation, but the 0's that barely fit even when I ate 200 calories a day have got to go.  Why is it so hard to part with them? :(  Ugh...it makes me feel like a failure even though I know it would be healthier to let them go.  Serenity now!

    (ETA:  didn't include sizes to be braggy, just to give a reference to how ridiculous I'm being about holding on to this crap.  Some of them literally look like doll clothes!  Get a grip, Evan.)

    I hung on to a lot of my clothes that got too small too...mostly because I just loved them so much!  But I finally came to terms with the fact that my boobs will never get smaller and my thighs keep getting larger.  Good luck with the closet purge!

    My confession: I'm so sick and tired of not working!  I already feel like I'm not contributing to my married life but now I feel even worse since H told me he wishes he could go back to school so he can get  a better job. He won't do it though because then we'd have literally no income unless he got a loan, which he refuses to do. ARGH!!  So now I feel bad because he is working a job he doesn't even like.

    I had no income for almost our whole first year of marriage.  I was in private practice but business expenses were cutting into all my profits.  Things were so tight, we could barely afford groceries.  I felt like such a lazy bum, but I couldn't find a job anywhere!!  Finally I got the one I have now, but I can definitely relate to how you're feeling.  Hang in there, something will pop up for you!

  • We are supposed to get really bad storms today.  The weather people are talking about tornadoes.  I'm happy DH will be around tonight because I would go into full blown panic by myself.

    On Sunday, we are supposed to go to H's cousin's house for a BBQ.  His family goes there every year for Mother's Day.  Without traffic, it's about an hour and 15 minute drive.  I really don't want to go and I'm thinking about faking morning sickness to get out of going...
  • I confess I'm a bit sad that I found out my sister's prom is tomorrow while browsing Facebook. Might be just a bit jealous that my sisters are close without me.

  • I confess that while I've never been in a fight before, I've never wanted to be in one as much as I did tonight. We went to a concert and some witch with a b and her friend shoved in front of me 75% through the concert. I made them work to get around me and one finally turned to me, giggled and said "Sorry, I'm only 4'11"!" I told her that she should have gotten there earlier then and long story short, that ticked off her friend who then reached out and grabbed my boob and started a scuffle. It was broken up by the bouncers and they left a song later.

    Well, during the encore they came back. I refused to let the short girl in front of me while her friend had nosed her way up front a person or two down from me. The short girl said something about being friends and I said "that's fine, but I'm not letting you in front of me" at which point her friend shoved in front of me and so I was bumping into her as I danced. She turned around, grabbed my face and said something threatening. Luckily I kept my hands to myself and walked away because I knew better, but I was FURIOUS. I've never wanted to be in a fight so bad. The thing that also ticked me off was that H told me to "stop it" and I was like "whoa, I didn't say a thing to her, and I'm the one who walked away, so don't dare tell ME to stop" 

    Sorry....just happened....still a little steamed and need to vent. haha

    Wow you have some serious self-restraint!  I once kicked a girl down off the bleachers in front of me at a football game at purdue.  Bitch I'm short, GTFO!!!

  • Jen, you have some serious patience!  If anyone puts their hands on me, they have another thing coming.
