Spark of Hope

Well, only skipped one day of blogging, not too shabby for me!  Doing much better than other blogging friends *cough LUSH-ous Baking*cough Waiting in the Meadow*cough My Take on Everything cough* Oh, sorry these allergies must be getting to me ;-) Kidding guys, but I hope it is some encouragement!

So yesterday I decided that I simply MUST get back to tracking calories, and the best website I have found to assist that is SparkPeople. It's like Weight Watchers sort of but it's FREE.  That's right, I said free!!! Not too long ago I tracked my calories using their nutrition tracker for a solid 3 weeks and I did see weight come off, but then as always I kind of deviated and stopped tracking...But here at the Procrastination blog that's what we are about, always try try again!  'Cause at some point there is a last minute in the procrastinators life and that's when it's now or never, do or die....diet? 

So that's another new goal set ahead of me.  I have a few others in mind now too...I want to finish the summer dress I'm currently making in my sewing class by the time my grandfathers memorial service is (May 14th).  That surely is plenty of time, but I just want to wear it then.  I'm very excited to see most of my family that I rarely see, some that I haven't seen in years even though the circumstances really suck...

Here's the dress pattern

(The one on the left) My fabric is the same for the bodice and the band, the colors of my pattern are three shades of blue, black and a hard-to-describe yellow.  Best of all: IT HAS POCKETS!!! My friend over at LUSH-ous and I decided a long time ago, every dress should have pockets heehee...
