Day 27/30 - A picture of your biggest insecurity, and the reasons why it is the biggest.

I would say my biggest insecurity is not being in CONTROL.   I wouldn't say I'm a control FREAK.  BUT I prefer to plan things - planning parties, planning life, planning house shopping, planning my outfits, plan, plan, plan.  I'm just NOT spontaneous - I need to know what's going on!!   It also probably explains why I'm NOT a daredevil - I don't like doing crazy things like snowboarding, wakeboarding, dancing on tables, etc.  I've never even been drunk because I don't like the feeling of being out of control.   Its probably how I earned my nickname of "Queen" or "Boss" (if you're my doctor) at work.   Its kinda my way or the highway, HOWEVER, I like to think I know what I'm doing when it comes to scheduling surgeries and juggling two surgeons, two nurses, two PA's and other random fellows I have to babysit from time to time... jussssayyyin....    ;-) 

I even have the remote usually.....

Day 26/30 - A picture of something you hate.

I also hate people who abuse animals and children... but I'm not about to put up a picture of that.

Day 25/30 - A picture of your favorite color.

The bedroom is green.   :-)

Cilantro is green.  I heart cilantro!

A lovely forest.

Day 24/30 - A picture of something you're afraid of.

Anything creepy, crawly or slimy.  EEK!

Day 23/30 -   A picture that motivates you to do more.

I've got two (of course):  

What's with the heart?  I thought it was perfect for Valentine's Day and February being Heart Health Awareness month.  Heart disease runs like mad on my mom's side of the family (Thanks MA!) - my grandpa died of a heart attack in his 50's (long before I was around), my uncle had a heart attack at a young age, my aunt has had heart issues, my other aunt has a heart murmur.  YIKES!  Oh and Dad's family strokes out.  So at least my death should in theory be quick (heart attack vs aneurysm) - not something to joke about I know, but like I wrote about 4 days ago, I think of death much differently than others.  :P  So losing weight has not only been important to me because I want to wear cute clothes but also because my genes aren't on my side - I'm doing everything I can do have a healthy heart by eating better and moving.  And my blood pressure has gone from borderline high to normal since I've lost weight (sweet!).  

My second picture:

This is Whitney Thompson and she is a plus sized model.  And she's fricken hot.  If this is plus sized, I'll be plus sized and proud of it.  Looking at a picture like this motivates me to do those sit ups and Pilates (700 sit ups last week!).  I have NO interest in being SKINNY.  I want to be curvy and looking healthy (and looking good in my clothes - not like a clothes hanger)!

Day 22/30 - A picture of something you wish you were better at.

Sports:  I've never been awesome at sports - some people just have that natural athleticism - not me.  I can write a research paper in an hour flat, but don't ask me to serve a tennis ball (I'm not even that great at it on Wii sports). :)

Dance:  Again, like athleticism, I have no natural rhythmic ability and I hate you if you do.  Just kidding, I don't hate you, but I'm severely jealous of you and your mad skillz.

Day 21/30 - A picture that can always make you smile.  

I went through and picked a bunch.  :-)

Photo booth!

This kid always makes me smile.

Parents dressed up for Halloween.  Ya know my dad loves me to wear a dress and a horrible leisure suit in public.

Chuck looks toasted.

Chuck and her planter - I found it at Ace - I thought it looked like her (even though its probably a cat).

Vinci being 80's retro.

Lucas' snowbunny from a couple years ago.

Did you get out and enjoy the weather today!?!?!?  We went sledding with some friends.  Super fun.  Here's me and my buddy Lynk.

I also made crepes today for brunch from this recipe:  Crepes

YUMMMM!!  And surprisingly low cal!
