A Whirlwind on a Tredmill

This past week was all a blur. Tonight I plan on going to bed at 8 pm.  Today was the last day of my non-diet-diet. Tomorrow, I start eating right and working out on a semi-regular basis.

The doll I won? IT CAME. AND SHE IS AWESOME. She looks remarkably like Carrie, my other doll.

It occurred to me last night I might be turning into one of those women who collects stuffed-child-clown-dolls, or clippings of Elvis sightings. So I think I will stop at two dolls. Two dolls is enough for me. (Somewhere in the future, I will post something worded exactly like this about children. Just wait.)

I created a Wedsite. I will not be posting it here, as I think at the beginning, it will only be my family viewing it. Plus it only has one post. Plus I use my real name in it. But it is very awesome.  You'll just have to take my word for it!

This new diet is more Weight Watchers, less Detox Diet. Only I am not joining Weight Watchers, as I am cheap. Oh, you didn't know of my cheapness? Allow me to illuminate you on the cheapness that is Enna: I very often handwash items the day before because I do not wish to use the pay washers. I learned how to make my own dishwasher soap. My next project involves making drapes. (More on that later.) AND NOW - I am going to start cutting coupons.

I had this idea on the train, and I am not sure why the idea of cutting coupons never before occurred to me. I mean, there are entire WEBSITES dedicated to finding you the best coupons for your area.  Speaking of sites, know any good ones?

The drapes thing: My family has a box of drapes on my mother's side. The box was created in/around 1952. Every time someone gets new drapes, the old ones go in the box. And, as you can imagine, there is now a box filled with drapes the color of every type of puke known to man. Think about the drapes in your great aunt's house. WE PROBABLY HAVE SIMILAR ONES IN THE BOX. And no, before you say what you're thinking, none of them have come back into style.

I am exaggerating, but really, only a little.

I am not going to mention to my mother's side that I need drapes. I am going to make them. And then promptly hide the horizontal blinds I currently have in the box and hope no one notices.

2 comments about my weirdness:

  1. No! You need to use the drapes and make dresses out of them!

  2. I hope that you know where that box is in the abyss that we call a basement because I haven't seen it in years.
