See you there!!! :)

the search...

...for these glasses!

I saw them in a magazine just an hour after I replaced my lost Burberrys. PAUSE for a moment of silence! Ok, so I love my new Paul Frank shades. They are totally different and outside of the box, but I rock them.

I want to try these ones on, to see how they work with my oblong face! Could sunglasses be my new addiction/obsession? A girl can never have too many shades, right? So, I went to the GUESS website and the ad is there but not the shades. Hmmmm, I called today and the dude gave me the style number. I found them online, but they are unavailable!!! Wtf!?

The quest continues...

long awaited...

That's right folks...

I finally got my jacket. Amy was at Staples last week and told me they had my jacket. TRUST and BELIEVE I was down there as soon as I could to retrieve it!!

I love love love it!! This year, perhaps they will need to make a 16x Champs Jacket!! Woot woot!!

more time...

Views from a nice walk that included the Hermosa Beach Pier!

Good times...lunch and a long, refreshing, scenic walk...

happy dance...

I'm so geeked!!

Two good things goin on...

My long awaited 15 times Champion Edition Laker Jacket is now available without back order!! Woooo hoooo!! That will be ordered TONITE with saved up gift card money!!

Secondly, I have hit the 15 pound weight loss mark!!! I am still going strong and have not grown comfortable or given up!! It helps that people around me are motivating and even wanting to join in the madness!

From the prophetic words of my boy ICE CUBE...well, you know the rest!!

nom nom nom!!!

My long awaited 10lb. weight loss reward!! STEAK!! I only anticipated going to North Woods Inn...boy was I in for a surprise!!

It was so pretty and fancy inside. It felt good to go to a nice place for a change! We usually hit up bars, taverns or grill type places!! Definitely have to save up your "nickels, dimes, quarters" for this spot, though! Everything you order is a la carte! All that I ordered was so delish. Wish I was an überballer and could go more often!! Our bill, for 2, was $140!! Whew!

Now I need a 20lb. weight loss goal/reward to work toward!! Let's do it!!

lyrics...

**I THINK INDIA ARIE WROTE THIS SONG FOR ME**

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I'd quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity
I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I've been thinking
Maybe you're not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity. They say watch what you ask for Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing
I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won't complain I just need you to acknowledge I am here
If you give me half a chance
I'll prove this to you I will be patient, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respect's the spirit world
And thinks with his heart
I am ready for love
If you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can
I am ready for love
Here with an offering of My voice
My Eyes My soul My mind
Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love
I am ready

ugh...

This sums it all up! I wish I understood a lil' more...than maybe I wouldn't be stuck in left field!! Hmmmm....

LOSER!!

*NEWS FLASH*

I haven't lost momentum yet!!! I am down 13 lbs. now!! It feels great!! I keep remembering what Marcia said, "Nothing feels better than thin feels!" Don't get it twisted, I DO NOT want to be thin!! Just more healthy with less of a tummy!!

Biggest Loser and Celebrity Fit Club have been a motivation for me!! I love Sam!! :) Upward and onward....

Sunday Sunshine...

What a beautiful weekend! It was 80 degrees plus on Sunday! Otis and I got up and headed out the door! This time I brought his travel water bowl, because of course, the doggie water fountain is always broken! We headed south on Redondo to the Bluffs and walked through the park there! All in all, we were walking for about an hour and 15 minutes. My poor lil' dude was sooo hot and tired on the way home!

Great way to soak in some sun, excercise the dog and burn off some calories!! Such a clear and pretty day in the LBC! Go me!!
