Is it finally over?

March 9th, 2010

The weather has been unusually nice lately. It scares me. It’s been about 60+ degrees for a few days and it’s still (?) the middle of winter. I think it’s the middle of winter. Then again, they do say April showers bring May flowers. And next month is April. ;)

But we have been taking this opportunity to enjoy it while it’s here and have a walk every day. The hubby wants to lose his gut (which I insist is left over from my pregnancy). You know, sympathy weight and all. :P And I have been wanting to lose the weight I’ve gained over the past five years because, honestly, I hate my body. It’s disproportionate. Fat in some places, normal in others. I just wish it would fill out and be one or the other. And I wanna lose my ass and hips and get back into my size 9 jeans and a few shirts I have that I don’t fit in anymore. I miss them. And I can’t seem to find anything nice that fits me without making me look like a complete freak.

I just hope the weather stays this way. But according to my father in law (or husband), we’re going to be getting a weeks worth of rain this week (thursday to sunday I believe) and if we do, the hubby isn’t taking me to a doll show I found out about. That’s going to make me a very unhappy panda! But we’ll see how everything goes. Hopefully after this supposed rain, it’ll go back to being nice the rest of the winter. I really hate the cold.

    I agree! If it snows here one more time….I think I will literally go insane!!

  2. Michelle says:

    Boo to rain. I hope you do get to go to the doll show! I bet that’d be really awesome. Spring starts on March 20th, so it’s nearing the end of winter (finally!!). =)

  3. Amanda says:

    Aww thanks!

    if you do join, thanks :]

    It’s been really nice here lately as well. We have like 2 more weeks of winter, but it already seems like spring. It’s been about 50 for us, but that’s like really warm compared to what the weather has been during the winter xD I don’t like the cold or the rain either xD

  4. Angelica says:

    I would love for the weather to be nice here for any period of time! The weather was great today so I really hope that spring is here to say. Enough is enough and the winter needs to end asap! :D

    What’s a doll show btw?

    I am beginning to think that winter might actually end. Our snow has been melting steadily the past few days and I can finally see grass again. We have rain too but that melts the snow faster so I am okay with rain for right now. My ass has been spreading all winter and it is time to do something about it. Let’s hear it for spring!

    Thanks for the comment on my blog- you make a good point about layouts :)

    I totally agree about the snow thing. It snowed a lot more than usual at my home- but not nearly as bad as some places.

    I love taking walks, one of my favorite things to do.

  7. Stepherz says:

    Oh, spring is definititly coming! My sneezy nose can feel it. I’ve been having a lot of rain as well, and it’s so depressing when it comes after such beautiful days!

  8. Angel says:

    I’m not sure where you’re located but ugh, I’m tired of the rain we’re getting here. It’s been freezing in the house, the past few days, lol. I want my sun. ROFL.

    In any event, good luck with your weight goals. I know how frustrating they can be, as my hubby is in the same position!

  9. Hoping the rain stays away for you and that you find loads of interesting dolls at the doll show.

    Walks in the spring sunshine sounds great to me :) Me and my hubby are hoping to get a few walks in now the evenings are lighter too. I love the Spring, it makes you feel so hopeful doesn’t it? Plus it’s my birthday in April… hehe ;)

  11. We’re also experiencing some mild weather this week and like you, are expecting some rain this weekend as well. I cannot wait for spring but I hate having to go through the thaw and all the gross muddy grass it brings.

  12. Brittany says:

    I’m with you – so over the cold and rain. Bring on spring I am so ready!

  13. I am sick of the rain, but would love snow! We only got ONE day of it this winter! I am ready for Spring though, if it won’t snow again!

  14. Katie says:

    our winter has been very mild, but I definitely am looking forward to CONSISTENT weather!

  15. I’m in California so we don’t have weather issues, but I’m dying for Daylight Savings to start.

  16. I always plan on snow until May. (Then I’m not disappointed when it stays cold lol.)

  17. It’s been really nice here too (michigan) I hope like heck that means spring is around the corner

  18. Kristie says:

    I have been ready for spring for several weeks now, and the weather has been telling me that it’s just about here!

  19. Lynsey Jones says:

    It has been terrific here… we always get a cold snap at Easter and then it warms to Seventh-Circle-Of-Hell temps in just a few weeks, LOL Love Florida…

  20. Eve says:

    it went from 40 degrees yesterday to like 90 today- I hate Florida!

  21. Kathy says:

    We had a beautiful day today. It was great getting the kids outside! Bring on the Spring!

  22. Robin says:

    I have been loving the great weather. DD gets to play outside!

  23. nicóle says:

    We’ve been having nice weather here too. I don’t want to talk about it too much for fear I’ll jinx it and will have wintery weather way into April!

    Good luck with your weight loss. I understand the struggle. I really do.

  24. Theresa says:

    Sounds like the weather we’ve been getting and I’ve not been able to get out of work mode to even enjoy it. This week has been incredibly busy.

    So looking forward to spring!

    Thank you for ‘nifty’. It’s an underused word. Will pop back when my eyes are properly open.

  27. Krystal says:

    I dislike horrible weather too! It was getting a bit warmer a week or so ago then suddenly it got cold again!

    I’m trying to loose weight too because I put one loads after I started my full time job. Didn’t have time to do exercise anymore and there’s always cake, cookies etc at the office so I ended up munching on those loads. If you want to loose weight then put your heart to it, don’t loose faith in it and you will make it :D I wanted to give up many times but I didn’t and eventually saw result!

  28. Marissa says:

    Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. I really need to blog again; I can hardly find the time to do so anymore. School and my boy keep me pretty busy. I’ll definitely try and post a new blog this weekend; I have a ton of things to talk about. So, you should totally check back again :)

    The weather is seriously possessed. One day it will be snowing with below average temperatures and the next day the sun will be out. How crazy is that!? But, I am enjoying this nice weather. It has been in the mid 50s-60s all week long. I love not having to wear a coat in the morning. And that only means that spring is on its way…

  29. Kaela says:

    Wow, that is really nice weather, LUCKY! :P

    DVD is still good! :)

    Hope you end up seeing it!

    Have a nice day!

    I like winter a lot better than summer. Winter is okay because you can pack clothes on and stuff, to keep warm, but it’s nasty if it rains or snows (thankfully it doesn’t snow where I live).

    Good luck losing weight! :)

  31. Jenny says:

    I’m actually enjoying the surprisingly warm weather :) It feels great to stop wearing all my heavy winter clothes. But the rain I’m not too fond of. Oh well, april showers brings may flowers.
    Good luck with your weight loss :)

  32. Delilah says:

    Woohoo, for warm weather! I totally dislike cold weather. ): But I never experienced snow in my life! I live in a VERY sunny place, which is probably why I like warm weather, haha. It’s the middle of winter here and about 70 degrees+.

    Good luck losing weight! :D

    I so badly want back into my single digit jeans it isn’t even funny! I am starting with the water drinking again….gotta start somewhere right?

  34. Lill says:

    We’ve had 2 nice days here and I’m waiting for it to be cold again…not that I want it to be, but I just expect it. I did take the opportunity today to get out on the scooter for some riding!
