April

How is that for stating the obvious?   Well, I let March get away from me about as much as I did April.    However, I had my weekend retreat in March and that was fun.   And I took a class on duct tape dress forms.    That was fun and let me tell you nothing will make you say I'm losing weight NOW than having your body wrapped in duct tape and then cut of and stuffed so you see every stinkin bump and lump.    My goal now that Easter is over is to lose for good those last 15 pounds and get into fighting shape.   Unfortunately, I'm not exactly interested in exercise.   But I walk with TinkerDaughter and I'm starting to spend more time in the yard since I want to grow some of my own veggies this year. 

I tried small container gardens last summer and they worked very well, so again this year, we will have home-grown lettuces, bell peppers and I'm going to try spinach and beans and tomatoes.    I need a few more containers but will get those taken care of this week. 

I decided silver duct tape wasn't flattering, so I decopoged it with left over fabric from another project.   I'm going to put a boa around the neck.    And I declare, that I will make another one in August, with a more plain fabric and it will have shape.
