Motivation

Sometimes you just gotta take that old pair of jeans that are too small and write yourself some motivational notes and hang them on the wall next to your mirror! Today I was doing some serious organizing in my room and found some old jeans that a couple years ago I could fit into. (these jeans were so cute on me and made my pretty much flat butt look pretty darn cute if you asked me) And that pair of jeans does NOT fit me anymore. Since I could fit in those jeans I have gained 40 pounds. That is not something I am proud of, in fact I am very embarrassed and ashamed of that fact. BUT, I know that dwelling on my embarrassment and shame will NOT get me to change. I have to focus on my goal, and believe that I CAN and WILL accomplish what I set my mind to! I have written many blog and journal entries about "wanting to change" and making my "goal list" but I never changed and I never met those goals which made me more upset with myself and my situation. I recently started working out with my sister who is a crazy excersize fanatic! She has almost killed me a few times...ok not killed me but made me almost pass out and throw up! She is a good trainer to say the least!! I finally got over my embarrassment and just did it! I am a long way from my goal but my mindset is different, I have changed! And now I am looking forward to seeing the changes in my body and my attitude!! I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! Have a sweet day!

Thrift finds.

Today I went to a little thrift shop and found a couple pieces of material for my sewing projects and these two sweet treats!!!! Aren't that just to die for! I don't have a little one but I can not wait to put my some day baby in these!! I am also really wanting to pursue sewing and making sweet little baby clothes! I love vintage style clothing on baby's just as much as I like it on adults! So here is to sweet thrift finds and inspiration!! I hope your disposition is a little sweeter after seeing these two treats, I know mine sure is!!!
