I am a curvy girl. I haven't always been but I have accepted the way I look for right now and that is relatively good. It is relatively bad, however that I just accepted how pants fit me. I have a very narrow waist in comparison to my big ol' booty junk in the trunk badonk a donk rear end. I had resigned myself to the reality of getting pants that fit my hips and thighs and were several sizes to big at the waist.
This week a miracle graced me with its presence in the form of a pair of second-hand l.e.i. jeans. They are absolutely perfect and I'm so happy that I found them. I would not have found such fabulous pants if I had not been shopping at the local thrift store by my house.
In other news, I have bought a lot of takeout again this week because I'm terrible. It's all from locally-owned restaurants but I know it's still not a mindful use of my income. I've been working 55hr weeks the last few weeks, though, and it has become difficult to actually go home and cook for myself.

There is also no progress on the raised-bed front. I was going to have the pallets delivered this week to get started but I failed to contact the seller on Thursday and now I'm broke again. I'm going to try again this Thursday but I'm not holding my breath in hopes that these original ones are still available. There is also always the chance that I could get some for free from my job and in that case I will opt to pay no money. As for the dirt and such, I have numbers to call and check on getting it delivered but with the ground being frozen I just haven't bothered.
My truck still isn't running but the next free day I have when the ground isn't covered in icy, frozen death, I will be dropping the gas tank and running it through with clean gas and a bunch of Lucas Fuel Injector Cleaner. That will also involve going to a locally-owned auto supply shop which will require me to have a free Saturday afternoon - a laughable idea, really.

I talked earlier this week about food deserts. If you're not familiar with that term, I encourage you to check it out and also do your own research on it. People like to tell me that it shouldn't exist - as if they're saying it doesn't exist. While I totally agree that it is a situation that shouldn't exist, I can assure you all that it is absolutely the reality for many Americans.
