The good news is that I am going to Hawaii on Wednesday. I can hardly wait!

I have about a million things to do including giving myself a bikini wax and waxing jj’s back. I know you wanted to know. It really is one of my favorite activities though. I also need to go find the perfect color of toe nail polish and get my piggies sparkling and happy and remove any hair on them as well. And while we are on the subject of hair removal, I bleached my mustache the other day, but now I need to wax that and between my eyebrows as well, and maybe between jj’s. I guess that is not a maybe, it always needs to be waxed there, it is just whether I can talk him into it or not. I bet you didn’t know I was so hairy, or rather you didn’t want to know. That is probably more correct.

I have started applying my fake tan and I am not streaked yet. Hopefully that will not happen for me. I am trying not to get tan or burned any more. All of jj’s family has skin cancer. I know that is not hereditary for me, but I don’t want to get it. But the damage is probably already done. But I am doing all that I can now to try not to get. Hopefully it will be enough. I hate when I get burned.

So I will not be posting for a weekish. I may come up with something brilliant to say tomorrow. You never know when genius will strike.

But I will be taking pictures of our tropical retreat. It is in celebration of our 5th year of marriage and also jj’s birthday. He is turning 30 on the 2nd.

Wish us luck and no sunburns. And don’t burn our house down while we are gone.

A person is not defined by the situation they came from unless they let it be the deciding factor. Who wants to be defined by their sorrow? I would rather be characterized by my victories. I need to stop bringing up my challenges and start talking about what I am good at. There actually are things that I am good at and if I start focusing on those then maybe I will start feeling good about me.

And other peoples opinions will just melt into oblivion.
