...and taking names

I'm wanting to write about some serious things, but serious things are hiding behind furniture in my mind at present, refusing to show themselves, so this post is a placeholder for serious things.

Seriously, my life is pretty excellent right now.

The weather here has been ranging between pleasant and splendid for days, and I'm riding my Dutch bike a lot, feeling stronger and stronger as I get lighter.

I've enlisted a couple of local friends into the ranks of calorie-counters, so I've got people to swap stories and tips with, and that's helping me stay motivated.

The pile of donation clothes is so high that it's threatening to topple. It now includes the avocado green jeans (bye, sad, ugly jeans!); I keep realizing, with every load of laundry, that this blouse and those pants and that coat are all gonna have to go pretty soon, too, and there are a lot of empty hangers in my closet.

So I bought some shoes. Because...oh hell, who needs reasons to buy shoes?

( Shoesies! )
