the voice of doubt and the giant of fear

it’s just me.

sharing.

opening up and exposing my heart a little bit. always a bit awkward and uncomfortable.

i’ve been in the middle of an ugly mental battle since monday.

i can’t even say with certainty what started it.

loser #1 ~ the voice of doubt

i always struggle a little with doubt. it’s not anything new. sometimes the voice is so quiet i’m not even sure it’s there. other times, like now, i feel like it’s screaming right in my ear rattling my eardrum.

it can become paralyzing. it can turn me into a quitter.

i hate it.

loser #2 ~ the giant of fear

i’m afraid.

i’m afraid all the hard work i’ve put into living a healthier life over the past year will vanish. i’m afraid i’m going to sabotage myself. i’m afraid i’m going to go back to my old ways.

and i’m afraid.

. . . . . . . .

honestly, i really want to punch both of those losers in the face.

o weekend, weekend, wherefore art thou weekend?

i hope your weekend was eventful . . . or uneventful. ya know, whichever one you were aiming for.

personally, i’m sad to see it go. we’re such good friends.

BUT, if the weekend has to leave, at least we get this:

gussy has re-opened her shop with new fabric, new ruffle designs, and lower prices.

can i get a yeow?!

go check out the tags on the camera strap slipcovers . . . .

she texted me a picture of them a couple of weeks ago. when i first saw them, i gasped. my eyeballs even got a little sweaty.

such a thoughtful act on her part.

i sure love that girl.
