Welcome to my WordPress!
Blogger was being a total bitch, I had this great layout and everything, but the comments didn’t work – so I reverted back to the original layout and they still didn’t work, so I said ‘screw this’ and jumped over to WordPress, and I’ve never been happier….
So yes, I am back from the beach. I did so many things! I swam in clear cold water, roasted under the hot australian sun, fed a carrot to a horse called mustard, listened to the jetty creak as fishermen walked back to shore with buckets of fish, I tried to feed my eating disorder to a shark, he didn’t take it – he’s not that stupid, and I bought a super bounce ball (hot pink) for $2, stuffed it up my shorts like I was a tennis player, then lost it fifteen minutes later – I was devastated for a good ten minutes.
I drove a ute (truck?) into a bush, said boo to a kangaroo and climbed under an electric fence!
I’ll have some pictures soon!
Unfortunately, and unintentionally, I lost X pounds, I wasn’t eating great, but I wasn’t restricting.
I guess my metabolism is a bit faster that I had first realized…
Thus why I have had time to do this complete blog renovation and hold a blog warming party, I’m on super big rest.
Okay! So, for my birthday I’m going to celebrate it with you ALL!
Noooo, I’m not going to sit in front of the computer all day! Hardly! I’m going to make the blog worlds famous carrot cake oats (with a candle) and I’m hoping to find a party hat or maybe a big ‘Birthday Girl’ badge and I’m going to do a video post and post it, on my very birthday! I’ll be celebrating my favorite meal of the day with you beautiful girls!
I’m super excited, I’m going to be sixteen in five days!
Sweet Sixteen… or shall I say, Artificially Sweetened Sixteen 😉 Joking!
So I have a challenge for all you girls, in the comments, tell me one thing you’re going to do, that you used to do before your ED, that you’ll do leading up to my birthday,
it’ll be my birthday present from you.
Me? I’m going to focus on drawing more, yes, it doesn’t have to be food related. Just hobby related, maybe you liked taking a long bubble bath or sitting in the sun – do that!!!
Well, I must be off! Well, I’m off to do some drawing, and look for my iPod, it’s been missing for a week – and I’m seriously considering putting it’s picture on milk cartons – I haven’t been able to listen to my christmas carols 😦
Not cool iPod
Not cool at all…
I love you all

i’ve been wanting to go to wordpress too but it’s so confusing!!!! how the hell did u work it out?!?!
ok well dealio i’ll do a drawing everyday up until your birthday and post it on my blog too. 😉
can’t wait to see pics of your adventures!
xox
It sounds like you had a fabulous time… I want to go on a beach adventure! I’ll go on any adventure if there’s a super bounce ball involved.
Hmm. Okay, my birthday present to you will be writing. How convenient that I just started this blog.. 😉
Oh! I am liking the new look, Katie. Very schmick and chic!
I’m so glad to hear you had a good time, because you deserved to laugh and have fun. One day your ED will be swimin’ with the fishes. You’ll throw him in and he wont have a chance to come to the surface again.
I can’t wait for your birthday post! I’m looking forward to seeing your beaming, beautiful, bright sixteen year old face.
I… Will try to pick up music again. Yes. I’m going to try and sit down for a good, solid hour at either my piano or with my guitar. I abandoned music when ED came into the picture, and I want it back. So I damn well WILL have it back.
Love you up to the banana and back.
…With a little Eleanor, too. (;

So sorry! The above link is for a wordpress account that I realized was way too complex for my lack of tech skills. Here’s my new blog: http://rubyconverseandcurls.blogspot.com/
LOVE your new wordpress blog lovie! the header is amazingly adorable and perfect! you are too cute!
and ahh cant wait to see pics from the beach! i know how it is to loose weight unintentionally, in june when away for my b-day at my summer home, i was eating well, not restricting at all, but came home and lost X lbs…i was like what?! so weird, yes our metabolisms are usually a lot faster than we think, especially when you are a recovering anorexic…your body needs more…but try not to let the loss play with your mentality or make your ED happy…got it girly ;P lol…well happy almost sweet 16 my love! i would love nothing more than to fly to Australian to give you the biggest b-day hug ever, and of course presents would be involved 😉
love you
xx

Lovin the new layout– and that pic is adorable, hehe.
I will try to reconnect with my love for music. Seems I’ve left it in the shadows past few months and I think it’s time to rekindle the long, lost relationship.
Happy birthday, darling– Don’t forget to smile 🙂

Welcome to WordPress m’dear – It’s waay better than blogger if I do say so myself 😛
I am so glad you had a wonderful time at the beach! (Sorry to hear that Mr. Shark was too smart to take the bait!) I am currently freezing my buns off in Canada, so I am super jealous of the warm aussie weather.
I hope you enjoy the days leading up to your birthday.. this one’s a biggie – 16!? I’m so very excited for you!
I plan to paint more, and start yoga – a wonderfully peaceful combination.

HI Katie
Thought I’d come here to answer your yoga question. Yoga is different things for diff people. For some it’s a vigorous asana (physical poses) workout. For others, they are into the more meditative & quieter aspects, the personal journey that you will take you on. For me, it’s both. On same days or months it’s more one or the other. It can be everything you wish, as much or as little as you want. Take it slow, start by doing some breathing, meditation, work slowly into a physical practice, and if you want more, go deeper, longer, and just have fun!

Ah, hello to your new location! And it sounds as though you’re having the most wonderful Summer – I’m jealous, it is absolutely freezing in England right now, I mean colder than it’s ever been!
Now, I’m not sure of the time difference…but I wanted to wish you the happiest of birthdays now, in case I miss it!
