I Got Nothing

People....I got nothing.

Getting ready for Holiday/Christmas at the store has kind of wiped me out...but I'm on vacation for the next coupe of days so hopefully I'll have some fun to report after this weekend.

Black Friday is around the corner.....I get sweaty just thinking about it.

Then I think...breathe....and it's okay.

Because My Life Isn't Humiliating Enough

We need your votes for our sweet small store....all you have to do is view our Gap store cheer lots and lots of times....so my store can win a contest. Thanks in advance!!

You can go to the youtube link.....

Or watch it here (but I'm not sure it counts)....so make sure to visit the link often and much!! Lots of love!!!

Oh, I'm the dork in white, center front.....

Decisions Decisions

You know when you have to make a decision and either way....its going to be difficult....that is where I am right now. Pray for me.

On another front: I had a great weekend with the Furious crew...they came in this weekend and we were able to spend some great time together.....Ken participated which is practically unheard of AND enjoyed himself. He doesn't have a lot of guy friends and Mr. Furious is a real dude so Ken found him easy to talk to.....their kids are ridiculously adorable and sweet...I confess to kind of loving them even though we are not related!!! They seriously were precious and sweet, what really touches my heart is that Kid (the older daughter) is not easily won over and she was quick to warm up this time and that....I. Love!

Trying to get the store ready for Holiday....but really looking forward to my 40th Birthday in January!!!

More soon, despite the virus on my laptop!!!

Out of Commission

Hey....if anyone is still checking in or reading I am having serious issues with my laptop. I have an insidious virus that makes it nearly impossible to use it....luckily, I am at my sister's house in Pennsylvania and I'm using her laptop to post this.

I'm hoping to switch to an Apple product after this round of virus dealings I'm kind of over the whole PC thing....more soon, somehow....until then I miss you all.

Off to NYC for an overnight.... ::jumping up and down:: pictures for sure!

Kater

My cousin-ish is a writer for Mad Men....Sunday night she won an Emmy and besides being thrilled for her and this huge accomplishment I thought about how proud she would have made our great grandfather...

....in my opinion, she was also best dressed and most elegantly coiffed...ladylike and elegant, respectful of the event and evening.

Bleck.

I got nothing....but I am going to PA and NY for a long weekend in a couple of weeks....so freaking excited about that!

New Site

Friday I was off and made plans with a dear friend to walk at a park nearby, it's a lovely place and right next to an outdoor "lifestyle center" that I love...normally we plan to meet at a local bagel place but I know that I am trying to watch what I eat and bagels, well, they are a trigger for me and I need to kind of avoid them for now.

So we ended up at this park and we were walking and took turns pushing her stroller around this lake as we walked and talked...sweating and chatting about EVERYTHING under the sun! Afterwards we wondered how far the trip was around as we had walked it 7+ times and tonight I looked it up on this website. It was tricky at first to figure out how to use it, but now I know that it is exactly one mile around and I can't wait to go back and really push myself around that track...maybe even try running it.

Special thanks to my sister, Heather, who told me to google "how far did I run" and I'd find something that would help me!!

Oh, Mrs. Furious, I finally found a SIGG bottle, bought it and discovered I have some weird thing that when I put my mouth on the metal....I feel like I'm biting tin foil!!! Ewwww!!

I'm down to 150, yesterday and today...that was my goal. Yay!

Yay!!

Update: DM came, saw and loved the store. Was kind and gracious about my challenges and excited about what we are doing right....thank goodness!!! It was a great review and although I have some things to work on, I felt encouraged after her visit and am excited for this back half of the year!!!

Tomorrow

My DM is coming to give me my QPR (Quarterly Performance Review)....stressing out. Big Time.

Do You Know What Kind Of Mothra This Is??

The other day Ken and I were walking out to the car and this was on the side of it....I wouldn't go close enough to take this picture....(snakes yes, moth, no). See the two yellow dots above it??? My mom said they were vomit drops??? Ewwww!
