Oooh La La Update!

IT IS A WORD NOOOOWWWW!!!!

Yes Sir'ee Bob! This previous ill-fitted, unbuttonable pant is now buttonable. A little snug for regular wear right now, but hopefully in five pounds or so they will be ripe for the wearing! They were probably about 4/5 inches from buttoning so I assume that this is a NSV for Anini. A funny one, but one nonetheless!

The pink sweater you see is my newest-most-favorite sweater. It was a splurge for my unemployed self at $58.00, but I bought it anyways! So I plan on getting a lot of wear out of it. I'm hoping the sleeves will shorten up a bit in the dryer because they are pretty long.

I think I have been doing quite well in the eating department for the last few days after the weekend houseguest incident. Just about a full recovery but the bad munchie vibe is still lingering....

I have been doing a lot of walking the past few days. It has been sooo nice outside so I have been taking full advantage of it. I walked on a beautiful trail yesterday and wanted to take pictures of the sun setting on the ocean but forgot the camera in the car. Hopefully next time I won't be a doofus and forget so I can share it with you all. Today it is supposed to rain sooo maybe the treadmill will be my friend :(. ALSO on the beautiful trail yesterday I did some jogging sporadically for a minute or so at a time. So probably only 5-10 minutes worth but it felt good!! I am looking forward to going a little further in the jogging department soon.

If all goes well I am hoping to not see a gain this week even with my baaaad weekend.

The self pampering went well yesterday. I had did a nice facial, pedicure, soak, and manicure for myself. I spent extra time just enjoying doing the extra things for myself that I don't normally take the time to do. I spent quite a bit of time reading as well and just enjoying the peace and quiet. I even squeezed in a nap before running out to get subway with the man (you didn't expect me to ruin my hard manicure work did you?) and having a wonderful and long walk.




This is Maddie watching me have my footbath/pedicure. She just was spayed last week and she has been trying to pull out her still undissolved stitches so thats why she is wearing that dreadful cone!

**Reminder that I cannot get the dumb timestamp on my camera to go away.. Sorry!**



These are my finished and pampered feet. If you look closely you shall see I EVEN took the time to use my spacers for painting my toenails! I know I am worth the extra few minutes to take my time and do it right! Also I went with pink this time. Usually I actually really like to do very small french tips but I was feeling the pink today.. Haha..

Well I will leave you with my self love thought and I am off to make some breakfast because my tummy is growling!
