I am back. Things are different. The breakup, the move...everything is different. And good.
It's amazing what can happen in just a few short months. I am reminded of this every time a few months go by and I still am not a size 6. If only I would have stuck to that freakin diet of drinking only water and occasionally munching on lettuce, maybe I would be thirty pounds lighter. And then hot boys would dig me. If only.
No, really...as I get older I feel the internal nagging that I need to get my shit together and live a healthy lifestyle that would make me look and feel great. No more toxic food, toxic work, or toxic people. Poisonous things are not good for the body and mind. I have slowly come to the realization that all this crap I do to myself - key phrase: "I do to myself" - is only killing me and making my life suck. HARD. This is what is on my mind these days.
Cooking school is on hold this quarter. I came dangerously close to a mental meltdown last quarter, so since all that has happened, I'm taking a rest. Not to mention, it's ridiculously expensive! So, instead of evening classes, I'm occupying my time with reading about healthy living, hanging out with some crazy new friends, and of course...KNITTING!
My knitting time has finally returned, and here's a picture of the sock I started this past weekend to prove it. What is it about socks? It's a freakin obsession of mine. I love the itty bitty needles and tiny little stitches. I'm nutty.
I have SO much yarn in my stash! I'm trying not to think about all of the unfinished projects I have stuffed in my knitting bags. They were stressing me out. I may just not finish them at all. I feel like being slow and lazy.
I suppose I'll get back to work now, because I am at work. I must get back to the drawing of the furniture. The cubicles are calling. Wanna see my super fabulous workstation? Look here. And here.
