Guess who's back?

Eek, horrible place for a photo.

I was grouchy when I got to work today, and my expressions show it. I think I really need the weather to get nice.

4/9

My makeup is gone, my energy is low, but I wanted to get back to this.

I'm reading Pete Souza's photobook of Obama's time in the presidency, and noted that Obama (a type 3 as well) took this posture frequently. It's not a natural one for me, at least not consciously.

Time for a haircut...

Oops

I haven't posted in almost a month. Oops. My hair has been rocking, but I haven't been posting much. It seems this happens when spring rolls around.

Whole30

I finished my first Whole30 round yesterday!

I had some pitfalls: Traveling, and having other people in charge of my food, was challenging. I did the best that I could, but I don't really know what was in the foods I ate those days. This should be a Whole30 restart, but that's not how I roll.

Eating out was a challenge; I had to ask so many questions of servers and even call ahead to restaurants, which we're all conditioned against doing.

Gains: More energy, looser pants, a feeling of tremendous accomplishment, and 7lbs lost. Also a recommencement to working out on the regular.

January 29

As I said, my pants fit looser. I wore the same pants today as I did on January 29, and the difference is obvious.

My mom often called me a show-off. I like to think of myself as an entertainer, and my Myers-Briggs type confirms this (ESFP). When I wear an outfit like this, I feel like myself unlike the teacher clothes I wear everyday to look like a grownup.

3/6

Back to reality. Forgot to take a picture yesterday.

3/2

I suited up for the last day of my trip, presentation day. I love this top, which I got for like 3 bucks on ThredUp and haven't really had a place to wear. Perfect.

3/1

Yay, March!

The hotel bathroom sink had the most beautiful lighting; I took a few selfies.

2/28

I couldn't figure out how to get the tights to look right; I only brought brown and burgundy with me, and the shoes just didn't look right.

I went with the darker shoe.

As a teacher, business travel isn't really part of my everyday, or even sort of occasional, experience. But I do get to do them sometimes.

I led a team of educators in evaluating a school, and tried on my best wanna be administrator face.

Here's what I wore on Day 1.
