Hello everyone

I am sitting here eating breakfast and watching....you guessed right if you said Law & Order.

I am going to be very lazy today.  I ran around so much yesterday and came home and cleaned and did laundry.  I am going to do the bare minimum. 

Yesterday, I was a shopping animal.  I completely finished my outfit for the wedding.  I am glad I am done with that.  The cool thing was I went to JCPenney they had a Doorbuster sale going on and I had a $10 off coupon...so I got a wrap, neaklace and 2 earrings for $15!!!  I went to Old Navy and bought some great clothes on the clearance rack.  I love the clearance rack!!  

Well at least with year end over with I can slow down and cut back on my over time.  Oh i never ever go to the library even though I live right across the street.  The reason is, I like to own my books not borrow them.  But a girl at work gave me a great idea when I was comlaining about the radio station I listen to and how I am sick of it.  She told me that she borrows audiobooks and listens to them at work.  What an awesome idea.  So I went to the library and I found out  they have a huge eBook selection online that I can download books on my iPhone for free!!!!  I am excited.  So day I am downloading some ebooks today!!!   

I hope you enjoy your Sunday....what you up to today???  see ya later.

Good morning Crystal and the rest of My cyber friends!
Yestereday i too went to JCPenny's and took advantage of their sales. I spent about 75$ and bought 2 new bras (ahh what a difference that makes), 4 shirts, and a pair of jeans for my daughter. The jeans were the most expensive item. I was so excited as all the clothing was in the ladies department, NOT THE PLUS SIZE! I tried on a pair of size 16 jeans and they fit! All my shirts are size xl NOT a 2 or 3xl. Oh what a feeling! I did not buy the pants as they fit but they felt a bit tight yet. I really want to loss some more in my legs before i buy new pants. I am finding mentally I am refusing to shop in the plus size. I know silly, but i find myself cringing near that department.
For Mother's Day i originally told my husband that I wanted money for clothing, however, i am now leaning towards a new bike. Last night my hubby took me to Dick's Sporting Goods and i feel in love with a beautiful Hybrid bike. I thibk the bike is for me! Clothing can be later! I think we will be going later today to get the bike. I have to admit I am very excited! Never in a million yrs did i think i would be excited about a bike. My last new bike was when i was in college. Now to start looking at accessories and side bags!
Everyone, enjoy thhis beautiful sunny day! My hubby and daughter are off to a "blessing of the bikes" at one lf the Harley Stores. Get outside all and get your D!
Take care
Debbie

Good morning!

Had a nice time at Christine's house yesterday.  The open house was great and she was a great hostess!  And I did sneak one of Dave's chocolate chip cookies that were the bomb!  They had nuts in them like I make them.  Yum!

Then I went to WI for the celebrations.  Dinner was not the greatest. I ordered scallops but they were cooked in a ton of butter and pepper.  My husband ended up eating it and I had some of his steak.  I was disappointed. 

I actually lost three pounds this week.  I thought with I hadn't but to Nancy's point (I think Nancy told me yesterday) to weigh myself once a week now.  I have started doing that the last couple of weeks.  I do know that I need to change up my workout routine like Crystal said.  This week at work will be a little less stress after Tuesday's opening. 

Off to get some breakfast and then grocery shopping.  We have nothing here at the house since I was gone last week.  My husband will eat grilled chicken breast all week if I'm not home.  I can't eat that much chicken!  Then he will cut the grass and I will probably end up working a bit today.

Hope you can enjoy the sunshine!

PS.......I won't shop at the plus size dept anymore either!  And Crystal, I love the audiobooks.  I'm in the car a lot and it's nice to have them on!

Morning all! WOW, yesterday was wonderful. Julie, you really helped make the day a success & your product is fabulous. I am still looking through the book to pick out what fragrances I want. I even took the book to Mass this morning to look through it beforehand.

I have most of the house put back together, serving pieces washed, furniture moved back and I just have the kitchen floor to wash.

Enjoy the day everyone

PS - I will keep the show open until Friday.

 Afternoon Everyone!

It is a pretty day today but not as warm as yesterday!  I am staying laid back this weekend and not overdoing it.  After doing so much on Thursday and Friday I decided to take a step backwards.  I am better today after taking yesterday easy. 

I really missed not coming to the open house.  I really wanted to be there and had my money ready.  Sniff, sniff.  

Debbie it is great to be in regular sized clothes -- Congratulations!  Also it is neat to be excited about a new bike.  Enjoy!  Jules, glad things are going well for you.  Crystal, I think you will enjoy the audio books.  I really love my kindle and can do audio with my books as an option.  

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

I will send you a PM with the links for each of the vendors. I cannot send the jewelry link because she is a sell only at a show or if you know of a specific piece I can have her order it for you. I will keep the catalogs open until Friday.

I have my order created for Tupperware.  Is there a promotional code for it or any of the other vendors?  How do I get it so that you get credit?  Please advise.
