Taking care of Me . . .

So, I'll be 37 in a few days and I am continuing on this path of self-care/self-pampering/brightening my inner light, if you will. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I abused myself or anything like that, but let's just say . . . I haven't felt like I was putting my BEST foot forward. Again, your girl looks damn good (!) ;), I just want to be "on point". The reality of it is, when you are in shape, you not only have an abundance of clothing options, you tend to feel awesome physically and mentally because you are taking care of YOU. Self-care is so important and the effects trickle down/flow outward in other areas of your life. It is soooo true!!!! When I take the time to make sure my "foundation" is on point, I feel so much better and this positive feeling emanates from within. I find I get a lot more compliments then as well (not that I ever look for compliments). The reality of it is (well, my reality anyway) that the Law of Attraction is in full effect. When you are feeling good about yourself, people can pick up on that energy. Anywho, I also love it when I can look at my body and appreciate it for all it can do as well as for how I look.

I completed my 12th Physique 57 workout today and it's quickly becoming addictive. I can see the progress I've made (completing the plie "sprints" w/o stopping) and my arse and legs are getting tighter. Maaaan look . . . watch me when I lean this body out!!!! I might be on somebody's nude beach somewhere, lol. I plan to post pictures, but I'll wait until I'm at my "after" and then show a comparison.

Also, I've recently gotten semi-obsessed with Goodwill! Did ya'll know they have a weekly "color" and every item with a tag that color is 50% off?!!!! Hayell yes! I want to build my wardrobe and focus on thrifted pieces for now. Hey, I am self-employed with a son in college and a teenager and a mortgage . . . shiiid. =D Stay tuned!

That's all for now. I'll be watching "Scandal" tonight and I can't wait! *Hee!* That show is so well done!
