Scenes from this past weekend

i am such a sun goddess (don't look like one but worship the sun, just wanted to straighten that out) - anyway below are from this past weekend in Staten Island (where Joe lives - 2 blocks from the beach which HBO just bought to film Boardwalk Empire) - and YES i am actually showing myself in a bikini (i apologize ahead of time) - but through my journey recently i've gave up on keeping this 'perfection' i try to achieve - i rather enjoy life in the skin i am in then stay at home b/c i don'/t feel 'skinny' enough - but really girls, WHO ever feels skinny enough

i must say tho - the confidence i achieved through everything that has been going around me/to me, is beyond words - there's never negative, just positive and it's within yourself that you gotta find where the positive is in 'all of this' ..

checking out for the perfect spot

heading out Sunday for sushi at Fushimi

finishing up Sunday night with dinner at La Strada

yesterday after all my Mom's appts and my own (i'm going for like a ZILLION different opinions, looking into fertility options, ect) - i treated myself to lunch (solo - just me and a book - felt so empowered) and had 2 mango martini's at Winberie's.  Afterwards went to Willow St. where i scored THE perfect dress for an upcoming wedding i'm going too plus some sale stuff (the girls who work there are fabulous, and they have a store on-line!!!) The day isn't even half over, so what do i do, HOMEGOODS! - and i SCORED big time, if i had an SUV or a sedan things could of been a lot worse ($$ wise) - and well the rest of the day i dedicated to myself and my comfy sectional and TV    :o)  

HOW DID YOUR DAY GO YESTERDAY?

UNEXPECTEDLY PERFECT OR BLAH?
