Miscalculation

How could I have missed this one?

So Wednesday was my weigh in day! I hopped on the scale and it had said I only lost 1lb. 1lb, what the hell. Maybe it was the clothes I was wearing? Jeans a sweater and boots...my jammies alone tack on an extra pound at home so who the heck knows!

I went through my book of weigh ins, and I was surprised I had miscalculated! I had already lost the 15lbs and now I'm up to 17lbs melted away! It's been a long haul for sure, but I'm really excited about the numbers being written down in my chart! I've lost enough for people to start noticing it's going away! Lots of people have commented on my face, but I don't really notice anything different. The pangs of having a round shaped face, is you always think you look chubby. Seriously. Even when I was skinny I thought I looked chubba wubba because of my face! Something to get used to...

I'm in desperate need of a haircut. My hair isn't short by any means, but I'm trying to grow it out longer. My hair used to go all the way down my back, it was pretty and I miss it. My hair is about half way down and I need a trim. It's hard to find a good hair person. I got to the city to get mine done, long trip but I see Hien and Whitney so it's all good. Alex works at a shop in Flushing called Sub Image. I love going there. Everyone like super trendy and Asian. Asian hair is quite different, so I prefer to go to someone who knows how to handle it. I was hoping to make a trip down, but alas I've miscalculated my bills for the upcoming months.

Being independent and owning your own things can be bitch. Take my car for example. I love my car. I plan on driving Black Betty until I run her right into the ground, or am forced to get a grocery getter when I start having kids. She costs me about $350/month in payments. I only have two years left on her so I'm not really worried. She needs new tires, which will probably run me around $400-500. My insurance is due next month, so that's another $520 and in March her inspection and registration is due. 

Since I'm strapped for the next few months, looks like I'll be staying in town for a bit!
