It's time.....

I'm feeling it.  Most definitely.  It's time for a change.  The question is, what am I going to change?  I've recently cut my hair and am wearing it straight vs my usual curls.  This means I'm taking time EVERY day to fix my hair instead of doing the happy "scrunch and go" that has been my go-to style for the past 10 years or longer.  I like it.  I don't like the time it takes, but I'm dealing with it.  So, that's one change.  But, it's not enough.

My closet is making me crazy.  I definitely need to make some changes in there.  It is definitely time to weed through my wardrobe and delete a LOT of what is in there.  The problem is, I will then have to go shopping and buy new clothing.  I have somehow lost my love of shopping.  Maybe it's becasue all my shopping buddies live so far away.  I like having a second opinion when I try a new look.  Being totally transparent here - sales associates do not count.  Since you never know if the one outside your dressing room door is honest or not, it's just too risky.  *sigh*

I need new shoes too.  Winter shoes, to be precise.  I am seriously lacking in shoes.  My hubby would disagree with that statement.  However, it does not change the fact that I need more shoes. 

Work out wear.  UGH!!!  I thought I had plenty, but last week when we went to the Y, I realized that everything I own to work out in is too small or too short or too *something*.  I had to borrow a t-shirt from hubby so it wasn't too clingy or too loose.  I wore a pair of yoga pants that I later found had a small hole.  No more wearing those outside the house!  My other pair of yoga pants are EXTREMELY tight, so no wearing them until I lose at least 15 pounds.  This is why I haven't been back to the Y since last week.  I really need to work out.  I know it would improve my mood and general outlook.  Exercise does that....  Strange how something so horrible can make you feel so good.  LOL

So, along with my fashion needs, I need to buy workout wear also.  Actually, I need to invest in workout wear FIRST and lose the weight I want/plan to lose before augmenting my fashion desires/needs/wants. 

To top it off, my allergies and the fact that thus far I haven't found the correct meds to help me breathe and have a sense of taste/smell is really beginning to get to me. I don't know how to phrase it.  I'm just not "me" right now. 

I feel stagnant, predictable, boring. The list goes on, but it's more of the same.  Thus, it's time for a change.  Where to start is the question....

Coffee?  Of course.  Today I'm drinking the lovely Vermont Maple Crunch coffee from the Texas Cheese House in Lorena, TX.  Yummy!  A little sweetener and a splash of half and half.  It's a pot full of pure bliss.  Try it.  They ship. :)  Don't know their shipping costs as I make the 8 mile drive to pick up my favorite culinary delights. 

BTW, Kara...I saw your comment on my last post.  Welcome to the "dark side" where flavored coffee creamers are a delight and a way of life.  My favorites are Peppermint Mocha (Christmas in a cup of coffee year round!!!!) and Italian Sweet Cream (oh, so sweet and wonderful).  Coconut Cream is third runner up.  You have to be in the right mood for it, however.  :)
