I am Beautiful! (Picture from Blog...Think you can read this one)
Shamelessly "borrowed" from KALANTHA. Thanks!
Out my work window a few minutes ago. White and gray spots are giant snowflakes. It is 21 degrees with heavy snow right now.
Love of daisies is a gift from my beautiful mom.
Working on it every single day.
Just learned of the death of fellow Spark friend AMYROSEC. My thoughts and prayers are with her sons. May they find comfort in knowing that their mom loved them so much and no longer suffers. In life Amy had a lot of health battles. In her last note to me a few weeks ago, I could feel how tired she was fighting for health. Amy, my friend, I know that your body is perfect in heaven. I will miss you in life, yet celebrate your victory in reaching the final goal.
Just learned my Spark friend PERSISTENTTIM was called home. He battled in life, but today walks in glory. Save a dance for me in heaven my friend.
Last night's outing. Super fun time AND I stayed in my calorie range. WIN-WIN!
I am a winner!
Oh yeah. So true for me. Just finished "The Silent Wife". Now I am reading a book about Lizzie Borden. Am going to need something cheerful next. Any suggestions?
Got a new cut and color. Took ton of selfies. This is the only one where I didn't look like a deranged serial killer. Just a little deranged
;-D
Starting my 2nd Whole30 today! Have my recipes planned and am ready to rock this. So excited I am glittering!
(If you know me, you know my glitter obsession. Even my DH tells me he lives me with glitter on top! Lol)
Unique like a snowflake.
BALANCE...
Gotta love January 2nd in Illinois. I don't even want to know what the wind chill is.
FRESH START
It is easy for me to lose weight.
It is even easier for me to gain weight.
When I am on Spark, I hold myself accountable. When I am off, I turn to old destructive habits.
I have been on a slippery slope. Embracing excuses and ignoring the messages my body is sending me.
Thank you Spark Friends for not giving up on me, even though I gave up on myself.
May 1. Fresh Day. Fresh Month. Fresh Start.
Dear Spark Friends,
I didn't expect to be away this long. A lot going on in my life. Some really good. Some not so good. Even though I wasn't here, I carried you with me in my heart. That has helped me through.
Love you all,
Julia


Oh yeah. This is so me.

Today is a great day to review and manage your Spark goals.
I decided to start with a clean slate for the new year. Then added some personal and physical goals that make sense for my life plan.
Happy Monday people!
Just kidding, it is Friday. Making myself laugh while other people have no idea what is going through my head is kind of embarrassing.
How are you simplifying your life?
I am simplifying my wardrobe with Project 333. Tweaked a little such as jeans for shorts. Out of season clothes gets boxed up or put in another closet. Easy Breezy Lemon Squeazy.
WINTER ADVICE BLOG
Just posted a blog on advice from a builder to keep our homes and us safe for the upcoming arctic cold many of us will be experiencing. I hope it helps prevent some problems.
It, of course, is sprinkled with some of my humor. Although I am serious about the dog.

Lots of awards given out yesterday. If I could swim, that would be me cheering all Sparkers on. Whether you received an award or not, each day is a part of your journey. Celebrate life and health!
Acupressure Mat
Little spikes all over to help with back pain. This is going to either going to be my best purchase ever, or a quick addition to the donate pile.
Happy Mother's Day Sparkly Friends. Here is song I thought was perfect for Mother's Day. May need to copy link.
