Two Great Loves and Lots of Shoes

Disclaimer: These are not my shoes

While watching my favorite show, Sex and the City, the question came up about great loves and how many you have. The general answer is two. When Carrie realized she had her two great loves, Big and Aidan, she thought she needed to stop. "Here Lies Carrie, She Had Two Great Loves and Lots Of Shoes".

Like I said before I've been in three "serious" relationships (I say "serious" because I'm not sure how "serious" they were about me). I am not sure if any one of those would be one of my two great loves. Although there's a slight possibility one might have been. I'm not sure when you realize someone is a great love. Is it the same for everybody or does an individual make their own rules. Do you get butterflies? Does a great love make you giddy? Do your knees get weak? Your palms sweat? Or is everything normal? How long does it take for you to know it's great love? Do you know after a month, six months, a year, two years? I have had butterflies. I've been giddy. My knees have been weak. It had been short lived. Does that mean it couldn't be a great love? Man, this whole thing is confusing.

I like the simple things in life, like shoes. I love my shoes. I know how I feel about my shoes. I can count on my shoes. My shoes have always been there for me when I need them. I don't have to question the way I feel about them. When I bring a shoe into my life I know I can depend on it. It goes into my closet, where it belongs and stays there until I need it. When I need that shoe, it's there (now sometimes there is some digging involved to find it, some shoes are so shy). My shoes do not get jealous of each other. My sliver Toms don't tell me I'm spending too much time with my flip flops. Forget the crazy cat lady, I believe I will be the crazy shoe lady.

Jeans

No matter how stores try to candy coat it, there is a certain stigma around the plus size section of stores. They can call it curvy or misses or whatever, but we all know what it is. There is an imaginary line in the middle of the store where no one wants to cross. At least that's how I feel about it. I'm sure the girls on the "regular" side could careless, or the workers for that matter, but I always feel self conscious when shopping on the side of the store. Sure, you get used to it and laugh when you're with your skinny friends and say "I'll be over on the big girl side" and saunter on your way to the plus size section. While you began to search through the racks on your side, you secretly long to be on the other side of the store, where there is double, sometimes triple the selection of clothes. You find something, take it back to the dressing room to try it on. It doesn't look right, it's too tight, it's not what you thought ...

Transformation Tuesday

Good Tuesday Morning to you all! I am up bright and early to go to a workshop today. It was hard to get up, which is funny because I get up early every other day. Anyways, this blog isn't about my workshop, it's about Transformation Tuesday.... I literally just read a quote on facebook while I was looking for a picture to use, that sums up transformation: Transformation is not easy. It starts on the inside before you see it on the outside. There are struggles. It comes with pain. It comes with a lot of hard work and effort. Without going through the tough stuff you aren't able to enjoy true transformation. Don't be discouraged but the rough days. Greater things are on the other side! ♥ That's the honest truth. Transformation isn't easy, but it is the most enjoyable thing I have experienced. And the thing about transforming your body, you also transform your mind. Everything changes. This is me. This is me before...

So Today....

I can't sum it up much better than that right up there. Today is a bad day. Nothing really terrible happened, just a lot of bad things. I'm getting mighty tired of this cold. I actually really want to go run, but I'm afraid I'll hack up a lung if I do. And I'm pretty sure I'll need that lung later in life. I'm also hungry. Like really hungry. I want Chicken Nuggets and French Fries. Only guess what? I said no fast food for December. So that means I don't get Chicken Nuggets and French Fries. Maybe I should have given up something easy...like dates. No dating December. Seems to be the way December will go down anyway. Yea I got stood up today...... And I'm still hungry. And I still want McDonald's. Or Starbucks. Or anything...anything with grease, sugar, loads of calories and yummy goodness. And can we talk about this for a minute? What the crap? I have grand plans for this weekend....
