2012

This year has already been flying by!! Aside from the usual work, eat, sleep, repeat routine not much has been going on! 

We got a new car. Its pretty fun :) 

I've been dieting since the new year started...I've been pretty good about it (sans exercise, agh!). I've lost about 20 lbs just from changing what I eat, but I've gotta step up my game-by game I mean cardio!!! Haha! 

I've been having a blast making low carb meals though, check out some of my creations:

 Not bad lookin' Eh?!

I've been working on crafts like crazy too!! Safe to say I spend a lot of time on Pinterest

I blinged out some shoes, a phone case, painted garden decor, painted vases....Its been a whirlwind of crafts scattered across the apartment! Here's my favorites: 

The strangest thing I've realized this year is my style taste is changing!! I'm now obsessed with zebra print, glitter AND rhinestones. How utterly girly! Lol

My newest craze is re-decorating the bedroom. I was inspired by Breaking Dawn pt 1. Cheesy, I know, but Isle Esme sparked some creativity in me. So far I have the bedding done

Well...I still need to sew the red pillows. I've been trying to keep track of some ideas for this tropical-esque theme on a board on Pinterest but let me tell you...Figuring out how to make the colors work without being ridiculous looking is hard! I'm tryin' though ... Hopefully I can get some more done this coming payday! 

Since work moved locations I've been getting up at 6am to be sure to get 'me' time, make up, coffee and hair all in before heading out. (even though I don't have to leave until 9:30-that just goes to show you how much of a morning person I'm NOT!) I've been watching the news, taking my time getting ready....I'm not sure if its this waking up early deal + diet but I feel like a whole new happier person. Like I love EVERY day that there's sunshine.  Thinking about each day brings a smile to my face. Its really a nice change of pace! 

Not much has been going on in terms of doing things but hopefully that will change. The weather's getting warmer, the days are getting longer, and my constant itching to get out of the house is growing!! Bring on the Baseball games, Random outings and fun summer time!
