Okay, I am going to counteract the collective BIDs and note that I wore a new ruffly skirt that my mother sent me today, and I am cute as a button in it. Despite being 40.

Also I wear summer hats on the way to and from work and most days I get a compliment, which is so nice.

I enjoy food too much, but I need to be careful because it's sabotaging the rest of my hard work.

Why must food be so delicious? Why did someone bring the donut cart for charity around this morning?

I realize that I've been dealing with a killer combo of boredom + anxiety the last few months. I just wish the weight would come off as fast as it goes on, man.

I have trouble mustering the motivation to do enough exercise needed to capitalize on the nutrition.

Exercise is my stress relief. It's way more difficult for me to put down the cheese and beer.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Between the heat, the humidity, some anxiety, and an asthma flare-up, I almost fainted on the way home. Not good. Still overheated and can't quite take a deep breath.

So I'm sitting on the couch in a tank top, braless, hair up, in knit shorts, trying to relax and cool down, and I know I'm a fright to see. The BIDs are having a grand good time.

re: pictures and mirrors: I am often startled by my ass. There's a lot more of it than I think.

We sold our house in GA today. I am relieved, but also kinda sad. I really liked our house and neighbors and all.

Stay safe people!

Folks remember the BIDs lie! And Maria in particular, short of getting liposuction pretty much every woman over 30 has love handles and belly fat. Love your belly, love its curves, and realize anyone who loves you will undoubtedly love them too.

And now I'm wondering if part of why my BIDs have gone into hiding is simply the fact that no one ever takes my photo. I think the last event where there was more than 4 or 5 pics of me was my wedding, and that's including our vacation last summer. So in my head, I still look about 30.

You're usually pretty cute, flea.

Yeah, me too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A successful day, flea! Even with residual sadness about moving.

Of course you are! Ruffly skirts for everyone!

Exercise is my stress relief.

I really, REALLY need to figure out how to make exercise my stress relief. Because the stress isn't going to lessen any time soon, and sitting on the couch staring blankly at Tumblr doesn't seem to be as helpful as I'd hoped.
