Lucy's Pink Kitchen

Wowie. For a day that I didn't get much more accomplished than rotating the laundry, I sure am beat! Why is it that some days I feel so charged up and motivated to take on the world....then there are days (more than I care to admit) that I just drag!!!

I'm trying to rejuvenate my old workout routine in order to to get some energy flowing again. Plus ummm, I'm startin' to pack on the pounds! All my life I've been a skinny stick of a thing....in 4th grade the other kids called me Olive Oil (perhaps it also had something to do with the fact that I wore a bun in my hair everyday! Not sure what that phase was all about). I remember people used to say..."someday it will catch up with you!" Well, yup...it's here. I'm caught.

Anyway, as I'm still trying to get Lucy & Shu Li's room figured out and organized, I decided to move Lucy's little kitchen that I made her for Christmas into the living room. I could kick myself because when I was trying to figure out how I would paint it, I went back and forth between painting it pink...or the colors of my living room. I decided on pinks because I figured it would be best to keep in her room. Wrong choice. Now the bright pink thing is in my nuetral-toned living room sticking out like a sore thumb. It really bugs me. Really.

BUT, Lucy loves it and plays with it all the time so I guess I shouldn't complain...she will tell me often that she is cooking dinner.

"What's for dinner Lucy?"

"Pizza, toast, noodles, eggs, rice, and tacos."

GREAT! I can't wait. Anything that I don't have to cook, I'm hungry for.

Lucy organizing her kitchen...without pants on. By the end of the day, clothing is optional and I just don't ask any questions. Thankfully, Lucy is the only one who feels free enough to take advantage of this.


We started the day with just pig-tails...then we visited Ninny and Lucy got a new headband, which she insisted on wearing all day. By this point it was more of a forehead band and Lucy didn't notice or care.
