bottles and blooms

Hello everyone!!!

Hope you're all doing well ~ with all

the crazy storms & heat!

We've had very mild weather here....

rain rain rain until just a few days ago,

but we've barely hit over 70.  Weird!

I was playing around with my camera again....:)



so you might have to endure

approximately 56 pictures

of my roses....

these are my David Austin roses...they smell so

amazing....and the color is the sweetest of

pale pinks...can't remember their name off the

top of my head...

the only thing I don't love about them is their

flimsy stems....because of it they don't do well

cut {what the heck huh??!!} but they look nice cut

short in tiny vases....

I love the old blue bottles....

I have just a few ~ but I'm seriously in love

with them.....

while we are looking at the pictures ~ I figured I

could give you an update on my body...

heehee  {cuz this you simply must know!! right??! ;) }

K ~ I have worked out 6 days a week for the last 12 weeks!

c.r.a.z.y.!!

3 days of weights, 3 days of cardio

well I do 30 minutes of cardio on my weight days

too so technically 6 days of cardio....

well ~ have I gotten anywhere?? you ask??

have I lost at least a pound you wonder??

do I hear 2 pounds perhaps??? ;)

well ~ yes!! 

 I've actually only lost 7

{whoopdee doodle doo...you might be thinking...}

but I've lost inches!  don't know how many

{cuz I wasn't feeling like measuring every square inch

of myself prior to this journey....}

but I did measure my waist...

which is now 3 inches smaller.....

and my clothes are definitely looser!

and Mr. T & T tells me every single day

how much different I look!

{course the natural female in me is thinking.....wow sorry I was

so hard on the eyes before dear....lol! }

I can tell too, but..... want more fat gone...

so I am continuing on.....I am loving building muscle...

don't want those jiggly wobbly grandma arms....

do want strong biceps, delts & triceps...

don't want my butt dragging on the ground...

do want a firm & shapely derriere....

{if possible....you see....;)}

don't want flabby saggy legs...

do want some serious definition....

{we'll keep our fingers crossed on that one with my 40+ legs...}

are you bored to death yet?? ;)

ok ~ I'll tell ya more in another 12 weeks! haha!

back to decorating then....

I got this cute little pale aqua table last week from

Kathleen at Faded Charm....

it's just the perfect amount of color.....

I have it behind my loveseat to put "stuff" on...;)

it's the perfect chippiness as well...

here's a little teensy peek...

I would show you a room shot but half

the slipcover is in the wash.....

but do you love the little legs??

and it folds up.........cute!

what's new in your life???

working on stuff??

projects??

body projects??

do tell!! :)

xoxoxo,

Shellagh
