Must. Lose weight. Now.

I've been working at losing some of the weight that I gained as a reward for having kids.  I've actually been really blessed- it's going well this time, and I've lost about 10 pounds.  :)

But...I've got another 20 to go.  (And would you believe that my goal weight is only just under the "overweight" limit for my height?  Another post, I guess...)

Switch gears.

I found some REALLY COOL SHOES online.  I think they're last year's "model," because they were getting clearanced out big time, and because I'm lucky enough to wear [ahem] size 12 (which evidently nobody else wears), they had some left in my size, AND my size was the cheapest offered.

But.

I can't justify new shoes right now.  My running shoes are fine yet...I don't need new shoes right now.

But they're really really cool-looking and really really cheap and I really want some new purple shoes!!!!!!!!!

So (with Nate) I came up with a plan.  I bought the shoes, and I'm saving the shoes...not going to wear them until I hit my halfway goal- five more pounds.

Five pounds has never seemed like so much!!!  I think it might be the end of me!

(I think Abby likes them too.)
