Plus Sized Modeling: Finding your Confidence

I have had a lot of time to think about what I want to do as a career this last month and one thing I have become very interested in is plus sized modeling. I have been told my whole life that my legs, my face, everything but my body was worthy of being a model. “You’d make a pretty model if you lost some tummy” “You shouldn’t wear that with your size…but it’s pretty!”

I have been told by strangers and family alike that if I were skinnier I would be really pretty. But you know what? I am beautiful now! I don’t need to change a darn thing about me to feel good about myself and I am about to prove it!

As of today I am submitting my bio to a plus sized clothing store in order to model for them, I am sure there will be hundreds of girls if not thousands submitting to them. But I am going to submit anyway, because what could it hurt? I am going to be pro-active and take steps to get the career of my dreams!

Wish me luck!

Gardening and Cleaning House

Well our garden is taking off amazingly! I wish I had known that beans were so easy to grow before. We are also trying to make our house look less like white trash lived in it for years before us (which they did…so much garbage).

So here are some images of our little Zen garden and our bigger veggie garden that I hope yields some yummy vegetables here in a couple months.

We were worried about our dirt since a good deal of our town is high sodium and clay. But we have very rich dark dirt that makes plants take off like crazy!!

We also pulled out some good awful hedges out from around our house. My friend from Ohio is sending me a whole bunch of Iris’s and my grandma is giving us an old bench made with wagon wheels to put in our front yard. Hopefully by the end of the year I feel like we got some work done. Here are some images of the Iris’s that are being sent to me!
