Ash Wednesday...

So where shall I begin on this gloomy-chilly morning. Not much has been new for me. Ummm lets see...I have gotten the courage to start selling some of my jewelry pieces and I have had great feedback on them which makes me more confident on my jewelry making. I have also started making summer scarfs. One day during lunch at work, a woman by the name of Karen showed me how to make them and for the pass month I have been making them and selling them for $16.00/scarf.

The second video was sent to me via e-mail which is the interview video of my bariatric experience. I honestly feel embarrassed by it, viewing it made me feel uncomfortable and only made me realize that I have such a long way to go. I can't attached the 2nd video yet but I did send the "okay" to the media director for publication and once that starts circulating then I will try to post the link or the keywords to search on YouTube. Here is the first video:

Oh let's not forget that yesterday was FAT TUESDAY and those lovely puczki were roaming about thruout the department! YIKES! I love those things! I went the entire day without eating one and broke down on lunch and had a 1/4 of one. GUILTY is what I felt afterwards! UGH! But it was soooooo good! lol. Still feeling guilty as I type this. Now lets get those ashes today since today is Ash Wednesday!

Two weeks have passed and an article came out in the Chicago tribune about my nieces untimely death and the girl who is getting charged. I'm hoping the link will allow you to view it. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-met-fatal-dui-crash-0213-20130213,0,2863871.story 

I had all these thoughts in my head this morning about what to write and yet here I am searching for things to write about. Ugh! Well let me end this blog with two pictures...1) my summer scarfs that I have learned to make and 2) one of my and my puppy Frankie.
