Prozac, Anyone??

Yesterday was a sad, sad day. I went to lunch with a friend and afterwards I must have been feeling suicidal because I went to try on bathingsuits. I don't know why I do that to myself every year. It is pure torture. You think you might be lookin' a little better than last year and then you go and do something like try on bathing suits. I do know one thing. Looking at myself in some of those bathingsuits in the gigantic walls of mirrors made me realize that B either really loves me or he is getting cataracts. You would think that just trying on the suits would be bad enough. No, not for me, I am a glutton for punishment. I bought not only a bathingsuit, but a bikini. Now, it is not one of those skimpy string things. After birthing 2 children those should be illegal. It has moderate coverage for a 2-piece. I think I got it more for motivation than for anything. You know the commercial for yogurt where the girl hangs up the bikini on her bedroom wall and looks at it every day and by the time Summer comes, she looks great in it? That kind of thing is what I am going for. Except I need to hang it on the fridge or the cabinet where I keep my secret chocolate stash. I know I will never look like I did before I had kids in a swimsuit, but you know I would like to be able to be in a bikini without making people feel ill when they see me. So, we will see how this goes. I will start back to the gym on a regular basis this week. I had been going every other night until my surgery. I have only been back a few times since then. I am going on a cruise in June, so my goal is to be able to wear it for that. 3 months- not a lot of time. Anyway- my architect friend came up with our downstairs floor plan and gave it to me yesterday. We are trying to figure out a way to shave some square footage off of it because right now it is a little monstrous. She was able to put everything we wanted into it, though. She is cool like that. Oh, well- off to get the girls ready to go to Gattitown and meet up with A's friend from last year. I will take headache meds before I go.... Oh Happy Birthday to Kristen- babysitter of the year, and Happy Birthday to The Rhino- he is 4 today, truly my bestest bosom buddy...... :)
