T shirt rug

I have been working on this repurposed rug since the first of July. Should be a total of 14 t-shirts by the time I am done.

Walk in the park

Oops. Forgot to send photo of my walk with Mason.


He wasn't real happy I took his photo. He is back to classes on the 29th. Hope he still has time for me then.

Rose Petal Rug

I was searching Etsy for a totally unrelated item and ran across this.

Here is the link. It is made from fleece petals sewn to duck cloth. Very cute.

Break

For 6 months I have been religiously tracking :

Calories I consumed.
Calories I burn.
Carbs I consumed.
Blood sugar numbers.
My weight.
Number of revolutions on the elliptical.
Miles per hour I walked/ran.
How many minutes I walked/ran.
How many times a week I worked out.
How hot it was when I worked out.

Not to mention the company I work for has been in and out of bankruptcy in the past 4 months. Now sold and I will be unemployed by mid October. Teenager we adopted 3 years ago, the one that ran away last fall is now pregnant.

Several of my online friends from a couple different groups were worried about me the past week. I am fine, just needed a break. I gave myself 7 days to ignore everyone. Feel much better today.

Just had to give myself permission to not care for a a while.

In case you are curious and to brag a bit...  I have lost 50 pounds since February. That was before the past week of over indulgence but I see a two mile run in my future tonight so I am really not worried about it.

Weekend

I haven't been shopping at lunchtime in forever. Look at the fabulous duck cloth I found. Hopefully that means some seeing this weekend.

Minnie

This is much better. I can take photos and post immediately.


I had a request for another birthday t-shirt.

Anywhere

I can now blog from anywhere, as long as I have my iPhone with me.


You had better watch out.

Thankful

I put just over 1000 miles on my car this weekend driving to my Mom's house in southern Iowa and back home. Got home Sunday afternoon, drove my car to work and back home Monday. Left my car at home today so Mason could wash it.

He called me around 10am to tell me that he couldn't start my car to get it out of the garage. Yep, the battery is dead. I am so thankful it didn't die anywhere on the trip. Heat index pushing 116 today no wonder it died.

Sugar Cubes

This post is totally for my sister.

Homemade Sugar Cubes

Wouldn't they be cute in the wedding colors.
