Blogging for Dummies

Hey who knows maybe Mr. Right will read this and fall madly in love with me.  Too Much??  Ok lets face it if Mr "Right" reads this and still is interested in me then he must be the one.  At this point I would settle for Mr Right Now.  Just sayin.  Ok so heres the deal, I go home tonight, write a list of blog idea and take a shit ton of pictures and my blog will be up and running in no time.  BOOM.  Hope you all (and by all I mean my one follower) have a fan freaking tastic Tuesday and stay out of Sandys way, I hear shes a bitch.  ;)

Blocked Up

So its been a few days since I have blogged  and well the fact is I have been in a rut, with dieting with dating with everything.  so today I decided that I am going to quote one of my favorite people because she seems to say exactly what I want to say!!! So here ya go ladies, a little advice from Marilyn Monroe....

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”

“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”

“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”

“A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left.” (One of my favorites!!)

“If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.”

“It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone.”

“Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.” (So true!!)

“Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.”

“All a girl really wants is for one guy to prove to her that they are not all the same.”

“I'm pretty, but I'm not beautiful.
I'm sin, but I'm not the devil.
I'm good, but I'm not an angel.
I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.”

“To all the girls that think you’re fat because you’re not a size zero, you’re the beautiful one, its society who’s ugly.”

Ok I guess thats good for now hahaha hope you enjoyed it :) here is the site that I got these from.... http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/82952.Marilyn_Monroe?page=2

Yesterday

Holy hell I forgot to blog yesterday, Im sure somewhere there is a firemen’s wife (Kristen) out there very upset with me today :). So here is a quick update of my day yesterday. Started out like every morning, alarm went off a 5:30am and I roll over fully attempting to get up and go to the gym and oops I hit the snooze, after about 4-5 more times of hitting the snooze I decide around 6:30 that I maybe should get up. I stumble out of my warm bed, and half asleep jump in the shower. And since Im on a "I hate the way I look so why bother kick" I get out dry my hair throw on whatever I can find, forget the makeup, and head upstairs. Now this is where my day gets better, I get to go wake up my little princess. Granted waking her up is not as glamorous as I just made it sound.....she (like her mother) is NOT a morning person!! But once she is up she is my sweet little Jojo-Bean :). So I get her up and dress and ready for school then make her breakfast, which is almost always "dippy eggs" and toast. Then it’s the normal brush teeth, do her hair, and we are out the door with only seconds to spare before I am late for work. I drop her off at a good friends house where she catches the bus to school then Im off to spend my day under those annoying florescent lights that make us all look so freaking fabulous. After 8 hours of that its home I go. My dad picks up the princess so she’s all smiles waiting for me as I walk in the door (yes Im 28 and live with my parents, I’ll explain later). Typically we have cheer practice, which I decided on top of everything else Im doing I should coach. BUT last night was the last flag football game (YEA!) so we are free until December when basketball starts. Then its homework and bed for her, and then the same for me. At the end of the day I can honestly say I love it, as crazy as it sounds I wouldn’t change it :).  I have a super cute morning picture of my daughter but for the life of me cant figure this shit out lol maybe next blog :)

After reading a friends post today, I started thinking.  Somewhere between my divorce and the weight I have lost my sense of style.  I love shopping, it doesn’t matter what it’s for it could be grocery shopping and I still get excited.  But somehow I have lost that urge to want to make myself look good. 

Today for example, yes I got dressed up (kind of) for work but I have ZERO make-up on!! Who does that!! I mean come on, I am a single women trying to find a man and this is how I present myself??? What happen to that girl that spent 2 hours getting ready in the morning just to be sure everything looked perfect?? I’ll tell you what happen, she got hurt, got her self-esteem beat down, she gained weight and got to the point where she though no one is going to want to be with a fat slob so why even try?

Well that time is over!!! I need to suck it up and (for lack of better words) get back on the horse and start looking sexy again damn it!! There’s no reason not to make myself look good.  Because if I continue like this I will still feel like hell and pick up the same douche-bag guys that I have been attracting the last 3 years (more on them later).  So my question for you is, what do you do to make yourself feel better? And once I figure out how to add pictures to my posts, I'll get right on it.  :) Happy Humpday!

Time for that scary 4 letter word.....DIET

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Well yesterday was the day, the day that I started on (yet another) weight loss journey.  I have high hopes for this one, I have lots of support from my friends and family.  I am going to be starting Body By Vi.  Now I realize that these aren’t miracle shakes and that I’m not going to wake up tomorrow 90lbs lighter (wouldn't that be great?) but I am prepared to do what I need to do to make this work.  I’m at my breaking point, at the point where everything just clicked and I know what I have to do, well at least today, tomorrow could be different. 

The thing that is going to push me along this time, is that I have a trainer, the person who is selling me the Body By Vi will be there to help me and to get me over those hurdles when I feel like I just can't do it.  That’s what I need.  For once in my life I need to not be the cheerleader and to finally have someone there to cheer me on.  I know along the way I am going to screw up, it happens, but I’m determined to not let one screw up ruin everything.  I am also very aware of what a big talker I’m being right now and that I may not be so confident next week, but with the support of my friends and family I KNOW I can do this, I HAVE to do this. 

So I hope you will all join me on this journey and feel free to leave advice and tips on what you do to stick with it! Here’s to a fun filled week with water, veggies, and workouts!! :)

My Very First (And Not So Great) Blog

Ok bloggers, my page is nowhere near ready but I am going to go ahead and throw this one out there.  I’m not 100% sure how to do all of this or exactly what it is I want to write about, you may see that my blog is all over the place ha-ha.  At least for right now any way, until I get the hang of all this.  I also have a little birdie that keeps telling me I NEED to get my blog up so I can start blogging with her hehehe.  So here it is, my very first blog.  Since I can't figure out how to get my About Me up I will just tell you a little about myself now.  My name is Kristen.  I am a 28 year old divorced single mom to a beautiful 5 year old little girl. She is my entire world (which won’t take long to realize once I start posting pictures :)).  I work in an office for a huge company.  I just starting going back to school (after being out of college for 6 years) for a degree in Business Management.  I also coach my daughters cheer squad.  On top of all that I am also trying like so many other to fight the weight battle, and join the world of dating (god help me).  So there you have it, that’s me :) Just a single mom trying to juggle work, school, dieting, dating and my little princess.  Hopefully I will get this up and running soon!! Hope you all have an amazing Monday!!! :)
