Photo Challenge Days 15-21

I feel like a failure lol... I haven't done this in a week. So here's a week's worth of pictures!

Day 15 - A picture of something you want to do before you die
As if it wasn't already obvious, the one thing I want to do before I die is become a mom. I don't care about being a millionaire, having fancy things, or travelling the world. I would give everything up just to be a mom.




Day 16 - A picture of someone who inspires you
My little sister. No matter what comes her way, she is determined to succeed on her own. (She's the skinny one on the right)




Day 17 - A picture of someone who has made a huge impact on your life recently
She might be surprised to hear this, but the person that has made a huge impact on my life lately doesn't actually know me in real life. We are friends via blog and Facebook. Christina, from Mrs. O's Life, has been an amazing inspiration to me. Because of joining her PCOS group, I have found the help I needed to kick start my weight loss and start managing my PCOS better. Thanks, Christina :)



Day 18 - A picture of your biggest insecurity
This definitely has to be my weight. I'm tired of being the size I am, having difficulty finding clothes, and missing out on summer fun like swimming because I refuse to be seen in a swimsuit right now.



Day 19 - A picture and a letter.
This one didn't make much sense, so... Here's a picture of a letter. Perhaps one of my favorite letters :)



Day 20 - A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel
I have a laundry list of places I want to travel. I didn't want to give you one of the usual answers, so I chose Antarctica. Hubs and I love penguins - and I'd love to see them in their natural habitat, not just the zoo.



Day 21 - A picture of something you wish you could forget
Well if I had pictures, I wouldn't be able to forget, would I? If I had pictures, it would be of my ex-step-son, Mikey. The one thing I regret from the divorce was having to leave him. He was 17 months old when I met him. He started calling me 'Mom' before his mother, and to this day, there's not a moment that goes by where I don't miss him. It took me two years to finally delete the pictures of him from my computer. The last time I saw him, he was three and a half years old. He turns 7 this year.

What's Your Song? Thursday IS BACK!

I realized that I'm in desperate need of some tunage. I'm trying a 3-day juice fast, and I want it to go well, so I need to be in a good mood - esp. since I hate most of the veggies in the juice but I know they are good for me. I have some good news - I have lost enough weight to take the 'W's off the end of my pant size, and I had to buy new, SMALLER undies. YAY! The hubby is very excited about the pair decorated with sledding penguins lol. Here's my song - Dirty Laundry by Bitter:Sweet. Love this song!!! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go dance with my dog and ignore all the dirty laundry that really needs to meet the washing machine :) Join us on this great link-up from Amber at Goodnight Moon !

The Doctor... Doctor Who? A.K.A. Damn you, Netflix :)

Oh, the hardships of having no cable TV... We decided that we were paying way too much money for cable, when there were only a handful of channels we watched. Of course we couldn't get the basic cable, because it was missing half of the channels we wanted. So I cut it off completely. And I'm so glad I did. We upgraded our internet service, bought a year of Xbox Gold membership, and subscribed to Hulu Plus and Netflix. Although we have decided to cancel our Hulu subscription, we love Netflix. Hulu is great for current shows, but Netflix is awesome because we can watch an entire series. When it first came out, I LOVED Alias. It was a spy show starring Jennifer Garner. My mom and I used to watch it every week. But Hubs had never heard of it! Seriously, he lived under a mountain. At least when it came to TV. So we watched all 5 seasons of Alias. We decided that instead of watching various shows all at once, we would choose a series and watch it all before switching to a new show....

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...
