Yes, I got my hair cut off today...and shaved more on the side. You can not imagine how freeing it is. Never in my life have I felt as amazing as I do today. Never in my youth or adulthood did I think being nearly 100lbs overweight could I feel this amazing. It's rather...amazing.

I took the kids to the park today and my oldest took some pictures for me. I took plenty of them as well. It was a nice fall day well, in the sun it was better. My son calls this my super hero pose.



I am really digging these shoes. I call them my "school marm" shoes. They are really comfortable and have a nice full heel. I really like that they lace up.

Considering shark week started today it was good.

Some gave all...

Excuse the puffy eyes and no make up. It can been an emotional day. 21 years ago today I lost my biggest supporter, my grandpa. He was a Korean War Veteran and was so kind to me always. Today, I miss him so much and have been crying. I am a Marine Corps Veteran myself and can not fathom the tragedies he saw.

Nice Products on the Cheap

While out getting necessities yesterday I found these at my local Grocery Outlet. I am a huge fan of Tom's products. This toothpaste is the best, I have sensitive teeth. The beauty bar left my seasonally dry skin feeling amazing after just one wash. Highly recommended. The EO products were new to me. I tried them out and I may have new products. The shampoo doesn't get all sudsy, which is good for my daughters dry scalp. The lavender body was is nice and not too strong. I can not wait to find new things and try them out.

Hope you are all having an amazing fall day. I went out to grab groceries and am relaxing at home with my wonderful children. While I listen to music they are watching Michael J. Fox time travel. Life is so amazing lately. It's hard to put into words, it just is.
