Self Sabotage



So its been a while since I updated here and in all that time I don't even have good news to share regarding my WLJ! I am totally sabotaging myself!! But the time is nigh to kick my ass gear since Mexico trip approaches more quickly every day. I really need to limit myself to the points I have and exercise everyday but I notice that not only am I eating "junkier" food lately but, also, a lot of it - old habits die hard, huh?

Also, I find myself feeling so stressed out everyday and I am sure that has something to do with it. I constantly feel like I am forgetting to do something (or actually am forgetting to do something) and walk around with this feeling of anxiety. Like right now. It is 6:23. I woke up at 5:30 with the TV and lights all on, and my boyfriend sleeping on the couch with the living room in the same disarray - I got up to shut everything, started worrying about flowers for Mother's Day and couldn't go back to sleep until I found a florist near my Mom's house who would take an order the day of Mother's Day without raping me on surcharges. BTW, FTD sucks and is super overpriced.

One thing of note to mention, which I can only imagine might make my WLJ more difficult is that I recently decided to start a little Etsy shop of baked goods. Specifically, I am interested in making geek culture sugar cookie designs and decorating them. It sounds kinda lame to be like "cookies, yea" but when I looked online for buying it seemed to be a niche I could fit into. I understand the culture and have read so many blogs about decorating tips, techniques, etc I think I could host my own cookie decorating seminar. Of course, putting those techniques into practice is really the key part so tomorrow I go to work baking up a storm and taking a picture of my delicious (hopefully) successes.

Alright, time to try to go back to sleep - or at least zone out watching Law and Order:SVU.
