I know I've been trying to sew more and have come up with some awesome designs, but I just rarely find the time to do it when the machine won't be too loud. I have made a few necklaces this week though which feels amazing to do. Once I get up into the studio and sit down in front of boxes of beads and other supplies my hands quickly dig in and release all this creativity that has been swelling inside. I made an amazing piece today but it needs just one more detail before I can take a picture. I'm thinking a large quartz point.
I see other moms do so much and I'm super anxious to balance the scales more and this week had been a great exercise in doing that.
Speaking of exercise, I finally am putting great effort into losing this stupid weight. A combination of pity, exhaustion, horrific pain, and stubbornness have up to this point hindered much progress. But I've found a lot of inspiration and the pain has subsided thanks to Divine intervention and I took a picture of myself the other day that I called my ''before pic''. Twenty five lbs is so doable. Last year this time it was 50lbs. Being in the 180s pregnant was hard but being in the 170s and NOT pregnant broke my heart. I was too embarrassed to take pics with my newborn!! I've typically been in the low 120s or teens and I'm positive I'll be there again.
Anyway, I've made time to work out at home, no excuses and now it's time to do the same for my soul and make the damn time to craft!
