9. Wear a bikini outside (beach, pool, lake, etc.)

I'm working on finding a bikini, but so far, no luck. :-(

I'm working on Connie's scarf. It's turning out really well.

I just got my hair cut, so here's hoping!

Update #33

Confidence Building
9. Wear a bikini outside (beach, pool, lake, etc.)

I spotted a super cute bikini at Wal-Mart yesterday that I absolutely adored. I'm thinking about getting it so I can wear it when Larry and I go to Nashville at the beginning of May. :-D


Food and Health
43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (0/14)

I'm putting this one back on the back burner for a while. Now just isn't a good time for me.


Reading
78. Read the following books:
• One Twilight book
Memoirs of a Geisha
• Catcher in the Rye
• Gone With the Wind
• Bridge to Teribithia

Because my upcoming trip to Nashville will consist of a lot of sitting around in the hotel while Larry's in class, I'll need books to read. I'll get my library card and see what books I can find to take with me.


Satisfying Nerdom
87. Send 3 secrets to Post Secret (0/3)

I found the postcard I want to use for one of my secrets. Now I just need the guts to put my secret on it.


Shits & Giggles
91. Read a trashy romance novel all the way through

Again, I've got a trip coming up!


Travel
96. Visit Adam and Gina in Franklin

Franklin is just 45 minutes north of Nashville, and it's about 30 minutes from Bowling Green (where we plan on going to the Corvette museum). We'll see! :-D

Failed Again...

43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (0/14)

Made it to 7 this time. :-/ Better luck next time.

Update #32

Food and Health
43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (4/14)

This kidney infection has kicked into full-swing, so no caffeine for this gal. :-/ Here's hoping I can make it through Hillbilly Days without giving in. I plan on taking my mug from 2007 so I can get $1 refills for tea/lemonade at this one special stand. It's $5 +/- for a new mug with a drink. The mugs ARE super nice, but I'll probably be super thirsty. So 5 refills for $5 is a lot more reasonable.

I'm also going to try to take more pictures for my 26 things while I'm there. I just hope I'm up for it. I've been super-weak the last couple of days.

Update #31

Food and Health
43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (0/14)

I drank a Pepsi today. So whether or not cocoa is considered a caffeinated beverage is kind of useless now. After rolling Frank the goat around like a Doug, I had to have a Pepsi.

Shall try again soon. :-(

Om-nom-nom!!

Food and Health
40. Try a new recipe and/or food every month (8/143)

I tried Haley's recommendation for putting french vanilla creamer in hot cocoa. Even Larry raised his eyebrows at the nom-nom-atude of its deliciousness, even before I told him what was in it.

Kudos, Haley-Cat.

Still Not Caffeinated

Food and Health
43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (5/14)

I was very proud of myself yesterday while waiting for court. I didn't give in under intense stress and sleep deprivation and buy a Pepsi. I drank water instead. Today, I'm quite zombie-like. I'd love nothing more than a hot cup of coffee with French vanilla creamer. Yet I'm resisting. I might have some hot lemonade later. I gave up caffeine, not sugar, praise the Lord. ;-)

Day 2 Without Caffeine

Food and Health
43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (2/14)

Technically, it's been three days, but only two were officially in my declaration of giving up caffeine. This really isn't so bad. I could get used to all this fruit juice.

FYI, cranberry-raspberry juice is AWESOME!!! <3

Weekly Update #30

Creativity
18. Complete 26 Things and post in my journal (1/26)

P is for "purple flower!"


Food and Health
43. Give up caffeine for 2 weeks (0/14)

I think this one starts officially today, somewhat against my own will, but my health kinda depends on drinking water and cranberry juice for the foreseeable future.


At the moment, that's kind of it.
