A few things have come in to my possession today, completely legally of course. So I plan to do a little reviewing, more to try my hand than anything else. I'll probably need to rope my tame photographer in too!
So in the works: reviews of my latest primary purchases and the Liz Earle cleanse and polish kit, as well as some rambles on plus size shopping, my boobs and being the fat one in the family!
In which we meet the author (authoress?) and she'll be inspired to say something witty (or possibly witless).
I have no idea where this is going. In fact, I have no idea where I'm going, both on a short-term career/life-goal level, or a higher, more spiritual level.
I like to write. I always have, for as long as I can remember. Inspiration is rarely an issue, but wandering concentration is. So I thought I'd blog. I used to use LiveJournal (which I assume still exists?) back in some of the darker days of my life. Things I wrote there were painful enough that I'd rather not read them again. I've opted for this fresh and clean virtual slate, an android keyboard with demented predictive text as my chalk.
There are several wonderful and inspiring bloggers I follow on Twitter, and if you're reading this and don't already, I'd recommend following them: @MrsBeBe_ @FFigureFBust @Bettypamper . They are changing my perceptions of body confidence and happiness in one's own shape everyday. They are my #bloggingidols :D
It took time to think of a name. I wanted something plus size related, because I am, and because I hope to do some rather amateurish plus size clothing (dear keyboard, wtaf is clotjing?) reviews when funds allow.
But it's more than that. One size never fits all... not emotionally or socially, as well as physically. I don't fit in, in oh-so-many ways. I'm not a hugely rebellious person determined to not conform, nor so easily swayed as to conform without question. I'm not cool or popular. I won't win prizes for looks or brains. It used to hurt a lot, now it's only a little. But I'm slowly becoming ok with that.
I don't know where this blog is going, but I know that somewhere out there, there are other people who our "One Size fits all" society's attitude never fits either. And I hope they can slowly become ok with it too.
