40 - 3 = Sarah

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!  BIRTHDAYBIRTHDAYBIRTHDAYBIRTHDAY!!!  It's my BIRTHDAY!!!

In case you were not aware, I happen to like birthdays.  Quite a bit.

What I'm wearing: really really old Target top, maybe 2004.  Skirt, also Target, possibly 2008?  And really old beat up leopard flip flops, which I'm sure I got from Target.  Pink crystal earrings which I bought at some church sale, but my mom had to fix them for me because they were kind of wonky.  I just came back from having dinner at Beef O'Brady's,  where I had a delectable Southwest Chicken Salad (I did not eat the tortilla shell) and two glasses of ice water with lemon.  When I see the pictures, I can really tell that I'm starting to lose weight.  I'm down about 15 lbs.  I have a lot to go, but I'm feeling awesome and healthy and I smile almost every morning when I take my blood sugar and it's nice and low.  I'm also starting to like exercising more than I used to; I'm sure I'll never be an athlete, but it's nice walking up stairs and not wanting to die.

So now that I'm done yammering on and on about how old I am, I have a new project that I will be starting, come June.  It has come to my attention recently that I own over 30 dresses, so I've decided to do a 30 Dresses in June segment.  (If you can come up with a better name, please leave a comment.  My brain is fried.)  I've noticed, and I'm sure many other people do this, that I wear the same dresses over and over, and neglect others.  Before I can purchase any more items, I need to make sure that what I own is being utilized properly.  So...starting June 1st, be prepared for daily dress posts from yours truly!

Ooh happy birthday! We have almost the same one actually. Mine is in a couple weeks - June 1st - and I'll be 33. Hope you had a great day! Do anything special?

Thank you, thank you friends! Well, I didn't really do anything special. I had to work, and I trained an employee on how to do surgery accounts. I went out to dinner with my kids, and did no housework. So I'd say it was a pretty good day. We're back to reality now; I have to work at least 10-12 hours today, plus help Bucket with an assignment for school, and make dinner. A real dinner. I am thinking of a modified goulas; ground beef and vegetables with cheese, no pasta (well, the kids can have pasta, I'm not eating it.) As of this morning, I am down another pound and just feeling kind of giddy over it.
