That is awesome, Heather! My DH has been paying a bit more attention to me too I complain that he's getting in my way, but I sure hope he doesn't stop!

I colored my hair on Saturday. Thought it was going to come out kind of carmel colored, and was really surprised to have it come out auburn. It's pretty, but it was sure a shock. It's the color that my mom always did her hair and I was surprised how much I look like my mom with my hair this color.

I haven't been dressing up (cold!), but I have been getting dressed down to my shoes and making sure that my hair is styled. My skin is all dry from the weather, so I've just been putting on a ton of moisturizer and no make-up since flaky skin covered in make-up looks gross!

Today I changed from the mineral makeup to some liquid I got from Yves Rocher. I forgot how much I like this stuff. I have on black pants and a beige sweater. I look presentable enough to sit behind a desk most of the day.

I have clothes I never wear, that fit me, but I just don't care for them. I am going to do some culling and donate them to one of our local charities. Then I'll have room for the next size down when I need them!

That is one thing I'm going to miss when I get down to the size that I want Nita, new clothes. I really enjoy taking a boat load of clothes to the Salvation Army and then coming home with a bag of goodies. My closet is unfortunately only so big . I think I have two more sizes that I still want to go down in and then I'll be getting clothes to keep.

Today I pulled out a dress I've had since last August that I got at a garage sale. It has pretty yellow and purple flowers on it and is something I pull out everyonce in awhile to see if it fits yet AND it does! I always pull out the small stuff on my skinny days and try them on. Yippee! I'll be wearing it to church service tonight.

Good for you, Heather! I've got a gold color pant set that I used to wear, I just need to get down one size. I figure in 20 lbs I can wear it. It's a summer suit, so maybe by then I'll be there.

Got on my black and white checked shoes. I love shoes, and wish I could get more that fit me well. I have short, wide, high feet. I have never been able to wear loafers comfortably, even when I was a skinny teenager, because I have such a high instep. Some of my shoes are getting too big. I think DD2 can probably wear them.

Doing silver jewelry today. Except the gold wedding band that now is my thumb ring.

Today I moussed up my hair. I'm almost done with my old mousse bottle and then I can use my new one I just bought that is sappose to help soften my hair. I also got some eye cream to help smooth out my premature wrinkes. I also got some leave in conditioner spray. Fun stuff buying beauty products. I'm wearing bluejeans and a white shirt that my dh likes too with purple dangly earrings.

Y'all sound GORGEOUS!

I'm casual, but I look nice today. Wearing a pair of jeans (I'll get ones that fit SOON), a watercolor looking t-shirt in peach, pink, and plum, my plum colored hoodie, my brown clunky shoes (I like clunky shoes), and I have my hair done with barrettes on the side and I put make-up on! I actually think I look pretty darned cute. I'm going to go look for some earrings right now!

Spent the afternoon at a client. This client is my old employer for 20 years. I do work for them, but actually go on site only about once a year or so.
Styled my new Blonde hair (blew them away with that one), wore black boots, slinkly black slacks, black stretchy tank, and a burgundy leather blazer.

Looking good is the best revenge.

actually, I'm the one who left there. spent 10 years at this particular plant. Most everyone was still there. I'm so glad I left to pursue my life.

Just gonna jump in here! Today I am wearing typical jeans and a shirt. I really don't dress up that much. However, one of my students came up to me and said I should not wear these jeans. I asked why and he said "Eh, Miss, Da kine see red. Hang, yeah, to big. Yo look like one blahlah!" Did ya'll get that. Translation "Mrs. C, your jeans look bad. They are too big and hang on you. You look like a really fat person."
It took me a while to learn pidgin. Now, I am a pro!! It was a compliment though! I was excited because a kid noticed! However, I am so ready to start taking notice in myself and dressing better!

Today I am going quite casual. I have burgundy sweat pants, and a gray sweat top with burgundy, blue and green print. It's a little dressier than the average sweats, but still just sweats. I'm going to wear my brown hiking shoes, too. It's Friday, after all. Besides, I have to drive 50 miles this afternoon to my chiropractor, and it's best to go there dressed really comfortably. We have a 50% chance of rain today, and be cooler. No makeup, either.

I'm going to take a nap and when I get up I'm going to force myself to get ready for the day. Have a bit of a bug going on today so I'm hoping it will make me feel better. Want to use up the old mousse I have so I can try my new stuff soon .

I noticed something today. I bought some t-shirts last summer and they fit (not too tight, not too loose, just comfy), now they are big enough that they are really only suitable for nightshirts! Yay! Now I have 2 new nightshirts!

I'm going to list some of my old clothes on eBay to make sure that I have money to buy some new pants when I hit the next goal! I am so ready for some pants that fit. It will be good when I wear "regular" sizes and can get some clothes at the Goodwill here.

Today I am going to stay in my pjs as long as I can! So there!

It's housecleaning day, so when I finally get dressed, it's going to be sweats and a t-shirt, and I'll probably stay barefoot most of the day, except to go out and check the mail. Unless some of the kids come over, I may just crawl back into my pjs this evening, make a pot of tea, and curl up in front of a good movie.

I'm having a shorts and t-shirt day myself. It's raining here. Too icky to go outside, so I plan to just sit here and play with my computer today. I'll go to the post office later on to check the mail, but I'm going to take it easy today.

I put on a white knit top, black pants, and my lavendar sneaker clogs. Not elegant, but comfy. I have a pin on my shirt that is silver with a spray of purple flowers, and my rings are purple. Just couldn't stand the thought of makeup today, by at least my hair is combed!
