WEEKENDING

I try to keep it real.
I don't have time to
worry about what I'm
projecting to the world.
I'm just busy being myself.

Like most of the country
we are experiencing a warm
front here in the south
with temperatures in the
mid 70's, making it
perfect for browsing the
waterfront stores looking
for the perfect gift to
give those I love. And I
found another little
'something-something'
to giveaway to you next
week, after my bird giveaway
is drawn. Don't you just
love this time of the year?!

I finished my last Annabel
cardigan and am now busy
on fingerless gloves and a
few scarves. I am feeling much
better about my time frame
and really do think I can cross
all the items from my list. I
also read this, and it really
helped put things into perspective.

I have managed every day to
exercise with Crossfit Mama's
[thanks Ivey] and even though
I have discovered stomach muscles
I didn't know I had, I am feeling
so good about myself.  I am
on Day 9 of my second Whole30
and going strong. If you are
thinking about trying it yourself,
I really do recommend the
book, It Starts with Food. While
the website contains a lot of
information, I learned quite a bit
from the book I would have
missed otherwise.

Now I am off to finally get my
Christmas cards written, prepare
a special dinner for the start of
Advent and just enjoy a beautiful
Sunday afternoon and I hope
the same for you!
