Music Day... "I Melt With You..."

It has been WAY TOO LONG since I've done a Music Day and I have a good one today! Actually, it's a 2-fer...

Yes...this photo is part of an old layout... but I LOVE this photo...
my sweet husband to be... October 2000

IS IT WEIRD... that I am turned on by my husband doing his job? Taking it down to basics, Jeff is an electrician. I have always found it totally sexy when he puts on his tool belt to do work around the house. It is not the actual belt, full of tools and parts that makes me swoon... I think it is the fact that he is the provider for our family... he has experience that he uses to fix our house... to build a new deck... to add new lighting to the kitchen... to take care of us...

I've been thinking about Jeff and his job A LOT lately, and I can't wait to see him come through the door at the end of the day. Although I've told family and friends about this "love" of mine, they all think I'm weird. You know what I think... I think that God found the perfect person to love, and be turned on by, a cute electrician...

So... changing directions... I was looking for the perfect song to represent the above, when I saw a post by a friend (Hi, Lauren)... she is going through her "umpth" series of chemo/radiation for breast cancer. She was just told the cancer is back and very aggressive and she is starting her series... AGAIN. Today, she posted a song for her husband, who she loves so much... and I think her song dedication is perfect... and also perfect for how I feel about Jeff... for all you 80's fans... Modern English's, "I Melt With You."

My goal for you... find something about your husband that is TOTALLY HIS... electrical work... type of music... love for landscape... favorite sports team... whatever it is, you probably already know... and you already love/support/endure his love... so LOVE IT RIGHT BACK... and you will have a great night... :-)

An explanation of my social experiment... I'm going "Full Monty"...

"Becoming my Husband's Girlfriend is my definition of the ultimate weight loss peer pressure... my weight loss "Full Monty" if you will. I will be posting my current weight photos and stats... stories about my weight loss and challenges... training that I am doing for 4 athletic events this years... I will be laughing... I will be frustrated... I will be sharing inspiration that I find around me and people whose stories inspire me... and so much more in my ultimate goal to lose weight, get healthy and bring the SEXY BACK to my life and my husband.

I hope you will join me in this journey, because I think there are A TON OF YOU that are probably in a similar point in your life. You might not have a ton of weight to lose, but there is something you want to change... NEED to change in your life. Maybe you are looking for some confidence... maybe you need to get that happy spring back in your daily step... maybe you can't wait to see if this experiment of mine will be a "train wreck" (we all know how much we LOVE a good "train wreck") or if I can actually do it...

... so become A FOLLOWER of this blog (below)... share the story of this "fatty" with your friends... because I can promise you this... we are about to embark on an amazing journey! Fasten your seat belts...

GOALS for the week of June 20 - 27th

1. Find your "Inner Summer..." Your favorite memory of a place... a song... a smell... an annual trip... take that memory and put it into your new Soundtrack for your Head! It doesn't matter if you go there this year or not, tap into those memories and get into the "summer feel!"

2. Summer is about short skirts, bathing suits and hot nights... find your "summer flirt..." I might be a size 14 at the moment, but I sure have found that summer flirt... it is all about the state of mind, ladies! GO get it!

GOALS for the week - June 6 - 13...

This one is simple. Find your next victory... and TAKE IT! We all have different things to celebrate... mine this week was buttoning my blouse. Is yours to lose some weight? To find a half an hour to play, uninterupted, with your toddler or have a quiet chat with your teen? Is it to go to the gym for the first time in years (AWESOME victory!)... or simply to cuddle up with your husband like you used to.

Ohhhhhhh, and be careful, because your victory may very well make someone else's day, too! :-)

GOALS for the Week - April 4 - 11...

GOALS for the Week - March 28 - April 4...

1. Find your own "Heaven" with your husband this week. Dressing up for Jeff... feeling sexy... and going to a concert where my husband couldn't take his eyes off me and wouldn't let go of my hand was my own bit of Heaven.

2. I am 2.6 pounds away from getting rid of the title of "OBESE!" Define your next goal... it doesn't matter the number or the reason, it is YOUR goal!

3. SMILE! Times are tough right now and I know that life is handing so many of us reasons not to smile. SMILE ANYWAY! It will make your heart glow... and make your husband smile, too!
