My projects...

So, are you sick of me being a self-pitying whiny ass bitch this week?  Yeah, me too!  So let's talk about something else!

Ok, so first an update on my baby boy Chakotay.  It has been only 3 weeks since we started trying to assist him in his own weight loss journey.  The poor bugger.  It's hard with animals - even with young kids you can kind of explain things to them, but not to pets.  I think he is starting to get it a little anyway.  I took an updated picture last night and tried to get the same angle.  I think that you can see a little difference - what do you think?

I think he definitely looks thinner.  You know I should take measurements since it is next to impossible to weigh him on a regular scale!  We will continue to work with him and hopefully continue to see positive results!

Sometimes I think to myself that my life has become all about food obsession and exercise.  But I do have other hobbies, honest!  Did you guys know that I crochet afghans?  I finished this one last night:

I find crocheting relaxing.  I sit down at night while watching tv and I feel like I'm doing something productive, but it's not taxing on either the mind or the body.

This is one that I've made several times.  It makes a great wedding gift.  It is pretty fun to make.      

I made this one for our niece Mary for her baby, Maxine.

So I do have a life outside of what I always talk about here!

Today is a better day emotionally if anyone is wondering!
