wishing all our American friends a happy and safe 4th of july! :) (to celebrate here's one of my 1st PSP creations)

Beauty,

Each and everyone of us has it's own definition of beauty. I, for one, never thought I was beautiful but then again I did get signed up by a major modelling agency in Montreal at one time. Still at that time I didn't think I was cuter than the next, I sure never got the free drinks my friends got in clubs and no one was whistling as I walked by! LOL! ;) I was teased most of my high school and truely it traumatised me, I cried going to school and woul skip school to stay home and watch General Hospital or Cheers! ;)

When I met Carl a few years ago, he still had pimples in his face and looked more like a teen then a man. Maybe love does this but everyday I seem to think he is cuter and cuter. He's not the knockdead handsome guy you see in magazines but he is the most handsome guy that won my heart. When I first met him, I can't say beauty was a reason I noticed him, actually it was his tattoos but that's a whole other story. Today though, just one of his smiles and seeing the love in his eyes make me feel so loved. :)

So why am I talking about this beauty stuff? Well...... yesterday I went bathing suit shopping! HA! Now no beauty came out of that! LOL! ;) It was not a pretty sight and god knows it could have depressed me alot but oh well, I think I can just live another year without one. I tried on those tankini model, ha! not too cute on me. Maybe I should just loose weight? LOL! This is from the person who ate 5 Krispy Kreme donuts yesterday! :-P I never did a diet before but I'm not getting any slimmer either. LOL! Guess this is just an excuse so I can buy the new power yoga tape I saw at the bookstore. ;)

Ok, nothing to report about knitting, my wrist has been killing me immensly. Today I plan on having a picnic on the McGill University grounds (it's beautiful) and then attend the mini-school of Jazz with the kids. We'll see if we even make it out the door today though! LOL! Usually when I make grand plans something happens..... you know like rain! Ah well..... there's always the mall! LOL!

Hey, go check out Cleo's account of the knitting meeting we improvised two weeks ago. Proof that I'm not a weirdo or whatever! LOL! ;) Even more fun is that we are meeting again tomorrow! :)

Last but not least, this might not be a picture of me but hey it's supposed to look just like me! LOL! ;) Click on the graphic to go play yourself.
