I'm really frustrated with my weight loss.
I've gained back 8.2 of the pounds I've lost since I injured my knee. Haven't been able to do ANY exercise. Just about everything in the DDPYoga program I'd been doing requires me to do things that will worsen the injury. That, and the treadmill is a definite no-no with this knee.
And, we've regressed back to eating junky food as opposed to healthier stuff since money has been BLEH. (It's always like that this time of year ... we have extra things to pay for, and less money to do it with ... one of these days we'll get the hang of planning better) So we've just been eating cheaper, junk food. Not good.
I've noticed that I have been pretty much feeling more like crap, and now I know why.
I tried on my Sith Cheerleader costume that I'll be wearing at Dragon Con tonight, and while it still fits, it's now really uncomfortable. And I HATE how I look in it.
I've got to figure out something to do!

WWE PPV, Outlook Grim, Birthday stuff, Nieces, eBay, Ipsy, Skylanders, and Kitties!
Tonight we're going over to our friend's Brittany and Dean's new place to watch the WWE PPV Money in the Bank. Should be a lot of fun :)
Doug just ran over to Joey's house .... he got a call from Bob that their album is mixed!!!!! I can't wait to hear how it turned out. He better be bringing it home on a disc, or I'll be pissed.
Yesterday I got a bunch of my Birthday freebies done (Great American Cookies, Steak N Shake, and Dippin' Dots, and Sephora!) We also saw my "birthday" movie, Pacific Rim. It was AMAZING. I really want to see it again. It's a definite see for the theaters.
I got my Ipsy bag in the mail yesterday, and did an unboxing video for that. (I should post about it on my beauty blog soon!)
Thankfully eBay is having another one of their listing sales, so I've got like 788 items up for sale right now, with more to add in the next couple of days. I've also been slowly adding Christmas stockings to my etsy shop (which I talk more about on my crafty blog!)
Last night my sister-in-law helped me straighten/organize a little more of the Creative Dungeon, and I hope to get more of that done soon.
Still playing, and enjoying the hell out of Skylanders :)
Looking forward to my birthday this coming week, as my twin nieces will be doing their summer visit with us. We're planning to hit Gatlinburg, and do some go karts, putt putt, and sightseeing. We're also planning a cookout ... and a Jamberry Nails party. And at some point while they are here, barring any rain, we'll be going to the park to hit up the super fun fountains. Just got to remember LOTS of sunscreen. We bought them a TON of craft project-type stuff to do while they are here, plus some outdoor games and stuff like bubbles and sidewalk chalk. Should be a lot of fun :)
Our newest little kitty, Mortiis is growing up so fast! He's going to catch up with the other 3 big kitties in no time :/

Work, work!
I've been working more on my beauty blog stuff. That's been fun. I'm loving the subscription boxes I've been getting!
I've been frustrated with eBay lately. They are running the freebie listings less often it seems. And I swear, about 1/3 of my buyers never even bother paying. I think that eBay is just too lax with non-paying buyers.
Etsy has actually been picking up more. LOVE that.
I really need to get to work on my Christmas stuff.
My twin nieces are coming up to stay with me for my birthday weekend! I'm looking forward to that. We're going to go to the water park, and play putt putt and ride go-karts. Should be lots of fun. I also bought a TON of craft stuff for us to do!
I've been filming stuff for my beauty blog on YouTube. It's something I've wanted to do forever, but never had the courage. I finally said screw it though! I just need to DO IT. I mean, I feel like I sound stupid. But I figure, the more I do it, the more confident I'll get with it.
We are SO close to Dragon*Con. This year is going to be so weird. We aren't staying for the full time. We're going to have very little money. And it turns out that the guest list this year is one of the best ever, argh.
I'm hosting a Jamberry Nails party on the 19th, the day after my birthday. It will be fun for my nieces, and for me of course. I hope some of my friends can come out to it.
I had an MRI yesterday, and it about KILLED my back. I should get the results from that in a couple weeks. I'll be glad to FINALLY know what is wrong with it.
Speaking of pains, I dropped a glass bottle of hot sauce on my foot at Kroger last weekend, and I was worried there for a couple days I had a fracture or something. Super painful. But thankfully, it's gotten better.
I'm looking forward to seeing Pacific Rim. I'm considering that my "birthday" movie, lol. Also looking forward to hanging out with friends :)

A New Start!
I really miss journaling/blogging. I do.
I used to use LJ a lot, but it's pretty much dead now, with the mass exodus to facebook. I miss recording my thoughts, even as random as they may be sometimes, lol.
So, I'm going to try to start fresh with this blog. I've had blogs here before that kind of fell by the wayside, but I hope to keep those up again as well. I'll probably use this one for regular everyday type of stuff, and possibly my writing. I also have one for my crafting/crafty business, and another one obsessing over beauty products, but it may cross over from time to time here as well.
