Welcome

Making an Extra Buck or Two

I’ve talked about getting a part-time job plenty of time, who couldn’t use extra money? I am also checking out other avenues of increasing my income including using the creativity I was born with. I love design, doodling, and I can be pretty crafty. I have been thinking of making and selling beads jewelry, some of my new scarves I’ve been making (getting lots of compliments at work) and trying my hand at painting.

Are you crafty? What do you like to make? Do you sell it?

I have never had perfect skin. Does anybody? Currently I am going through the transition of winter dry to summer oily and I actually prefer the latter as who likes to have flaky skin?

As my 40th birthday looms ahead of me (173 more sleeps), I am constantly looking for wrinkles. I think I’ve been pretty lucky in the gene department. I may not have gotten the skinny genes from my family but I did get the “older than I look” gene. I am looking though to be a bit proactive and current am researching for a good eye cream. Any recommendations?

I definitely fell off the low carb and diet wagon. When I hit TOM, everything seemed to be fair game and has continued to be fair game. I have been asking myself what it is going to take to stick to a plan or do I just accept this chubby me and enjoy life at 215lbs. I still don’t know the answer, my brain is debating and until then, here I am.

I’m been trying to sell a few things here and there to add to my income, no freecycle right now for me. I have a few things listed on craigslist, including a couple of deuter backpacks I have received as gifts that I really haven’t used.

I think I am currently overeating as I’m stressed, about money and the condo close which is in 2 weeks. I just need to make it to May 13th (day after condo close) and I should have nothing to worry about…’cept my weight again. If…I’m going to continue to worry that is.
