vanillafluffyThis morning, my eyelids didn't even crack til nearly 11 AM...so church was a write-off. I haven't left the house; the most ambitious thing I've done is a craft project involving glue and scissors.
I got ahold of an old-fashioned black metal lunch box (the kind with the domed lid where the thermos would go, if it had a thermos) and have happily decoupaged the hell out of it. I trimmed three vintage-style postcards out of a piece of wallpaper with a postcard theme and applied them, added a few brightly-colored postage stamps from exotic places, a couple cigarette cards featuring American landmarks, and some faux luggage stamps. I've christened it my "I've Been Everywhere" box, although truth be told, I've never been to *any* of the places shown---not even the Everglades! But what the hell, it's darned cute, and I can see it as a companion piece to be worn with my pop cap belt---which, according to the UPS tracking info, should be here tomorrow. Gawd, I hope it fits! Although that may not be a serious issue.
Lately...I've discovered that my jeans are fitting looser. To the point that I've pulled them down without undoing the fly---because I'm used to granny jeans and stretch pants, and wasn't thinking---and they're riding a little lower on my hips than they used to. I'm not trying to loose weight, but what with working second shift, I have only two meals a day and a couple snacks, and there's a limit to how many calories I can consume in my allotted break time. As long as I don't get home and eat before bedtime, I ought to keep losing weight. Not a bad thing!
