There I was, sitting at my desk at work daydreaming for a moment about all the fun that will be occurring in the next couple weeks. I was actually alone in my office with a smile pasted on my face {thank God no one decided to pop in at that moment!} because I just couldn't contain the excitement! At this time next Friday I would be graduating with a bachelor's degree in communication, getting ready for my big party and about to hop on a cruise ship. How much better could it get!
Then....it hit me. Just as quick as the smile appeared on my face, it vanished.
Oh. My. Gosh. I have to lose weight! Like, now! In an instant I just realized I would have to wear a bathing suit in the middle of winter and I'm definitely not looking my hottest right now! All these insecurities just turned up from out of nowhere and I almost wanted to cry. It was horrible, I tell you, horrible!
So you wanna know how I turned that frown upside down? I decided I'm just going to do the best I can in the 2 weeks that I have left. I joined a gym ASAP and it's only salads for this girl from now until the cruise! Call me crazy, but my daydreams have stayed positive ever since I made that decision :)
I'm Liking: Christmas time is in the air {and the music} everywhere! I love that every store that I have walked into lately has the Christmas tunes blaring! Some of my all-time favs are:
All I Want for Christmas Is You – Mariah Carey
White Christmas – Louis Armstrong
O Holy Night - Celine Dion
and of course...Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer!
I'm Liking: My house is decked out in holiday decor! Danny even strung lights on the plant shelves throughout our living room! Stay tuned tomorrow for a picture update of our home!
