I am looking forward to spring so very much and I woke up with this idea in my head this morning – make freshly squeezed lemonade from scratch to celebrate spring when it arrives. I have no idea where it came from but I love it and decided immediately that I should add it to my 43things. I’ll make a nice icy cold pitcher to sip and enjoy.
It won’t be on the first nice spring day because there have been days like that already lulling me into a sense that winter should be over. Maybe on the equinox then…or when the first buds arrive on the trees. I’ll have to decide on a cue.

Want to join me?

I’m drinking more water than I was before but I’m still not drinking remotely enough. I think I can feel the effects, though. I seem to not feel as bad, my skin seems less dry, and I haven’t had as many problems with my eyes feeling dry. I’m wondering if it’s why my hair looks healthier as well.
I think the goal of “drink more water” is too vague though and I need to give myself an attainable one so I’ll stick to it better. So I’m marking this goal as done and replacing it with drink at least 1 liter of water a day. I’ll up that to 2 and then to 3 when I feel ready.

Craft projects, art projects, home repair projects…
Things that aren’t really a big enough job to list as a goal here and things that are currently just taking up space because I’m not doing with them what I had planned. I’ll give myself a deadline and if it’s not done and there are items taking up space in my house – they’re either tossed out or given to a charity. I can’t keep thinking “someday”.
First I have to come up with a master list of the things I want to complete.

Well, Aaron has told me he finds me even sexier now than he did when I was thinner which makes me feel a bit better about my weight. But I want to be able to fit into most of my clothes again, and to not be so completely out of shape. I also need to start working on losing the weight so that I won’t gain any more.

So, for now the goal is 20 pounds. But… if I’m able to gain muscle and lose the fat and to get back to the shape/size I want to be but still not really lose 20lbs of my weight – I will be happy.

I made an appointment with a clinic today to help me take care of my anxiety. Only now I’m going to be freaked out and anxious about where the hell I’m going to come up with the money for it by the 4th. I may can just reschedule it or something, I have no idea.
