Happy Friday! Yesterday was St.Patty's Day and we spent it with wonderful friends at a local Irish bar, O'Briens. No green beer or corn beef and cabbage for me!
Today I was told that I should angle the mirrors in my house to give me more of a "lean" look while I'm pregnant so that my body image doesn't take a nose dive. Well, since I don't live in a carnival fun house with all those illusionary mirrors, I think I'll try other things like repeating to myself that this is a very temporary thing and one day I will again have control over my cravings! :-/ It's not like I'm craving Big Macs and french fries but the candy cravings can be just as damaging. I recently had a minor freak out when I couldn't find the last airhead in my purse. I cursed that stupid big black hole that I call a purse, until my rage magically turned into pure glee when I found my beloved Pink Lemonade flavored Airhead. What mood swings?
