Good morning!  Decided to pay someone to kick my butt so at 5:15 this morning I was up and at my personal trainer.   I am sure that by tonight I will be asking myself why I did this  Lol felt good in the moment but I suspect lifting my arms and even sitting is going to be a challenge tomorrow.  Enjoy your tennis game barb! The weather here is beautiful already and pretty soon the tennis balls will be out on our tennis courts- come on spring!  Not much planned for today, work, walk the poochie and a few domestic goddess duties- wash, cooking.  Here are my eats for the day:

l- 3/4 c chopped salad, 2 oz roasted turkey breast

d- 2 oz roasted chicken breast ; 1/2 c Brussels sprouts

s- mini baby bel 

all water and vits

wishing everyone a great Tuesday!

Good morning all. Nice day out there. Mild but could use some sun. Never happy!. Must go swimming today. I have been goofing off.

My future DIL sent me a dress picture this morning. The wedding isn't until October! Also the dress is black. I do not want a black dress.

Home tonight. My son comes for dinner Tuesday. He is a scout leader in the east end but now lives in the west end. So he drops in to mooch a dinner. Always glad to see him. My DH always had Tuesdays off. They decided to change his schedule. So on Sunday I made meat loaf the chili for last night and meat balls for tonight. So a quick dinner for everyone.

Cute dress but I wouldn't go with black either.  I see it comes in navy and silver as well.  The silver one is the nicest of the three to me but of course it depends on your colouring.

I have very grey going to white hair. My skin used to have a lot of colour but I get really pale now in the winter. I think I need a little colour. I also looked at the sizes. It appears I am too large for it. I would need a size 12. I might get away with a 10 if it is generous in the hips.

They have the same dress in plus sizes and it comes in a nice purple but only in plus.  What colour are the bridesmaids wearing?  I remember you had mentioned someone said maybe you should go with red for yourself  Red would be nice for fall.

Bridesmaid dress are royal blue. MOB thinking black, grey or purple. I think I would like something floral with a jacket or at least a light colour. I know dark colours are stylist but I had too many dark colours when I was obese.

I'd go bright or light and forget the real dark ones. You will find what makes you happy.  Might be tough finding fall dresses if you wait too long though as all the summer styles will be in all the stores

I agree, black seems wrong for a wedding.  Check out Nordstrom online, they have an amazing selection of dresses. 

I loved the style of the dress she sent you.  Classy. 

However, you have to be happy and comfortable in the dress.  OK Pat, you live in a fantastic city with so many choices in clothing.  You will find something in one of the major chains or in a boutique somewhere!  The last wedding I attended that included pictures I was in - I wore a lovely ankle length black skirt - kinda floaty - and paired it with a gorgeous turquois and hot pink flowered top.  If I could figure out how to send a picture I would send it!  The top was georgette I think with a black satin sash.  Wedding was in July though.

OK, I think I have it on my page now - have a look
