FRESH AIR

My husband was trying to pose me in this picture. He is very haphazard with my camera and just shoots away without taking the time to plan out the shot like I do. Out of the 15 pictures he took of me I only liked 1 of them.

I dismissed all the others because of they way I looked in them. He gets really tired of me complaining about the way I look. I hate my wrinkles, double chin, rounded face, long skinny legs, fat buda belly–HATE IT! He tells me there is no reason for me to fret about my looks because I’m beautiful in his eyes. I wish I could somehow improve my poor self esteem it has been a problem all of my life. It has come to a head now that I have bought my ticket to Cabo for an all girl week long trip in May. I don’t now very many of the girls that I will be traveling with but most of them are my sister #5 (the marathon runner) friends from Seattle. I’m sure they will all have a washboard stomach with perfect everything. I don’t even own a bikini and what about my belly! I’m not fit to be seen in public. See I’m still obsessing. I did buy a book and Borders yesterday titled 8 MINUTES IN THE MORNING TO A FLAT BELLY lose up to six inches in less then four weeks…GUARANTEED. So it looks like I will be starting Monday morning. Stay tuned–because Monday I’m going to show you what my belly looks like now. I’m hoping this will give me encouragement to make a habit and follow the instructions that are all layed out in the book.

We went to the Narrows Beach today which is about 4 miles form our home it was drizzly, dreary and damp morning. Just a few people out walking their dogs and fishing.

Enjoy the slide show!
