Ok, so I've decided to do a 7 day cleanse. Wish me luck. Really. Today all I eat is nothing but fruits except for bananas. I have no will power so wish me luck. I will really need it. Tomorrow all I eat is veggies. Now...that is when you will need to really really wish me luck cause I HATE veggies. I guess it's lettuce all day with carrots. Yuck! But that's all I can handle. Hopefully I can make it through the week doing this. Weekends are the hardest for me. That's when everyone is home and I don't really cook anything. Plus, we're going to the zoo this week sooo........I have got to be strong. I also want to go back onto the Hcg diet. That's how I lost my first 75 lbs. I felt awesome on it. I also looked great!!! And once again, my will power is completely shot. I don't have it anymore. I think if I look at enough "skinny girl" pictures, it'll motivate me enough and I will be able to do it again. Being over weight is rough. Today I weighed in and it was 199.2. Makes me sick. My goal is around 150 but if I'm able to lose more then I will. I also want to try Body By Vi but it is so expensive. I don't have $250 for the kit that I want. I know I can get it for free if I refer 3 people but I still have to have the initial $250.
Enough for weight loss. Onto crafts.
Yesterday I went to Home Depot and bought 1/2"x5' electrical conduits and brackets for curtain rods. Where did I get the idea from you ask? Why, Pinterest, of course. If I knew how to post the link I would but I'm still learning this whole blogging thing. I am going to put up one on each side of my bed that'll hang curtains from ceiling to floor. May sound weird to some but trust me, it isn't. Yes, another Pinterest idea, that's how I know it looks good...lol. And if I leave, I take them with me. Simple as that (well, the curtains at least....the electrical conduits were only $1.43 each so I can do it again). Anyways, I spray painted them black. One of them I painted a flat black and two I painted a shiny black. Both were spray paint. I like how the shiny one turned out better. I thought I was gonna like that flat black but not really. So I think I'll use that one for the dining room. The brackets that I bought were almost $4 each so with the candy I bought my daughter, the total came to $16 and some change. If you can find brackets somewhere else that is cheaper then by all means, get it. But make sure the brackets are big enough to hold the rod cause there are different sizes. When my project is done, I will post pictures. And hopefully by then I will know how to share where I found the idea(s). I also want to make my headboard from plywood. If I leave, guess what? I'm taking that too. I can just make some adjustments when I move. I will post the link for that one too or just do that tutorial myself. We'll see. I need to buy alot of fabric but don't know where to get it for a cheaper price then Hobby Lobby. I want something cute, modern, not too bright but not too dark. I'm excited for this project. Which reminds me, I still need to finish painting the room too. I just need alittle more paint. I guess I will have to wait for this Thursday or Friday. My room is a dark gray. I like it. Sometimes I think it's too dark but once I have all the accents and decorations and everything up, it'll look good. I guess maybe I should use my cricut and vinyl again for stuff on the walls. I'm still looking for the perfect quote for the wall. I think it'll be a very long time before I can figure something. I gotta work on one project at a time. I can do this. I can.
Well, I better get going. All 4 kids are awake and have lots of cleaning to do today. See ya on the flipside!!
Much love and aloha,
Tawnya
