I'm so addicted I don't even do it anymore!!

I am seriously blogdicted, too, Liz, and I realized that I haven't even posted I've been so busy reading all the ones I follow, commenting, going back to see if anyone else has commented...

Alright, me: Who cares!! I've turned over a new leaf AGAIN and I'm owning my body the way it is. It's liberating. No guilt over the Ding Dongs. No guilt over the 6 cokes a day (unleaded, of course.) No guilt over not going to the gym in weeks. Plus, Andy bought me a couple of outfits, so I have stuff to wear. That really eases the stress. I put on my makeup more, and that makes me feel better about myself. It's a daily battle, but, whatever.

I'm going to buy costumes for the kids today if I can ever get out the door. Pumpkin for Charlotte, Ballerina or butterfly or ballerina or butterfly (geez, girl, PICK already!) for Claire, and Saturn for Gabe.

Oh, yes, you read me right. Saturn. My boy's big noggin should be accentuated - not like you can miss it. And, really, this is the last year I'll be able to pick whatever I want for his costume. My jumping off point is a navy sleeper, a close-buzzed head, and craft foam rings. My sis-in-law Jess will airbrush his head the beautiful pinky colors of Saturn. He may not wear the rings all night, but I'll get some great photo ops!

I don't know if I'll dress up. The kids would really appreciate it. I'll see if I come up with any good ideas. Ok, I'm off to the store, but I PROMISE I'll write again Liz, IF YOU COMMENT! Hi, mom, I know you read this!

Hooray for no guilt. Life is so much easier when you just stop caring, like I do. You have got to put pictur of your kiddos on your blog in their Halloween costumes. maybe claire could be a ballerina butterfly.
