Sunday Walking


I am trying to work up the body heat to go outside for my Sunday afternoon walk. It is a bit chilly outside for my tastes but I have my walking partner showing up any minute and he wants to walk to I am trying to prepare. This week was another off week. While my health is getting better, I am still finding it slow to return to normal. I know the doctor said it would take a year and I am way better then I was but COME ON!

Ok enough whining. I am getting better and I need to just slow down enough to realize that taking a year off is not such a bad thing. Plus this week it meant spending the week with my nephew while his nanny was sick. We had so much fun! We took long walks in the park, we watched the construction men working with their diggers, we walked a lot and we got to take some naps together. That's the amazing thing about my life as I am in the midst of recovering. I actually really get to enjoy my time and my life!

So this week I will be making up time in my studio. I am so excited to get back to candle making and creating new candles. I missed being in my studio last week. I was happy to be with Dylan but missed my life in my creative space. In other great news, I have lost 4 pant sizes! I am trying to figure out how this happened and I am still in shock over it but when I went to buy a new pair of pants today I was 4 sizes smaller than I once was. I feel like a child wearing adult clothing. I am swimming in all my old clothes but am not ready to buy new clothes since I have a feeling I will be going down even more sizes. It is nice to start to have my old body back! A lot of my sickness over the last few years and medication caused my to gain A LOT of weight but now I am getting my early 20's body back. Of course it looks a little different but I am just happy to be returning to health!

I wish I had more exciting news but these last few weeks have been very quiet and calm. I think this is a good thing.

Ps. This is my lovely cat that adores how much time I am now home during the day. This is her staring at me in the morning to wake up and feed her!

Sometimes it's tough to get out there for exercise- you'll feel so great when you're done =) I just checked out pictures of your candles and they look fabulous!
