home stretch

i'm having a really good moment right now.  my peeps are being featured in etsy treasuries and i'm getting a lot of views.  i'm happy that the quilts are finished and finally up on the shop.  doing what i like is really excellent.  money would be great too.

i'm having some mild anxiety about finishing this special k diet.  i really don't want to gain this all back just like *that* you know?  i've been looking into the south beach diet and i think that's going to be my next eating adventure.  but could i call it the downtown l.a. diet?  south beach is so cheezy in my mind.  i'm not a cougar yet.  only cougars do the south beach diet, right?  ok, so i'll be on the dtla diet starting this friday.  what i find appealing about the dtla diet is that it morphs from a strictish sort of low carb situation into a normal food, low portions idyllic nirvana.  the ultimate goal here is to lose weight and find a realistic way to eat and enjoy food for the rest of my life.
