Blushing

Do y'all ever have those embarassing moments where you realize that you've said something out loud that you didn't mean for someone else to hear? Well, lemme me tellllll you - that happens to me ALL THE TIME.

Perfect example:

Just called down to my little salon to make an appointment for some ladyscaping. (The guy who sits across from me has been traveling for the last two months and hasn't been in the office, so I can make these kind of calls and not worry about him knowing about the maintenance schedule for my girly bits.)

Guess who's not traveling anymore is was sitting in his office WITH THE DOOR OPEN while I made my rip 'em & stick 'em appointment? Awesome.

These Boots Are Made For Walking

Darlings, I bought a pair of shoes on Friday. Not just any shoes, mind you. These shoes are possibly the sexiest pair of shoes on the planet. They're like sex for my feet.

And I ROCK them.

I'm wearing them right now, with a cute black pencil skirt and a button down blouse (have to tone down the sexiness at work, of course).

At lunch today, I walked over to Safeway for my weekly shopping trip to stock up on healthy food for the week.

(sidenote #1: this is to ensure that I don't snack on all the delish treats at work and stay on track with Skinnyfest 2009)

(sidenote #2: not only are my shoes HAWT, they're actually comfy enough to walk around downtown without praying for a pair of flats within the first 10 steps)

As I'm getting to the store, an elderly woman (probably 70-80) was coming out. She sees my shoes and says, "Oh my goodness."

Mission ACCOMPLISHED.

Bargaining

Casa de Hart has been getting a bit of a facelift over the past month.

Well, maybe not a full-on facelift... more like botox. (You know, little touches that make a big difference)

One of these little touches was the building of a fence around our side yard and connecting it to our back yard. The fabulous hubster and I had discussed hiring a fence guy. Imagine my surprise when I returned from a girl's weekend to find the hubster working on a new fence - no fence guy in sight. He then explained that we could "do this ourselves". Hmmm.

Ourselves. Not himself.

As some of you may know, I have been lusting after a certain rug for the past year or so. LUSTING. As in, this rug makes my heart beat faster.

I struck a deal with the hubster: I would help with the fence if I could have my rug.

Guess who just ordered her rug yesterday?

Temptation

Last night was my JLSF small group meeting... which involved tasting recipes for the cookbook we're putting out next fall to celebrate our 100th anniversary! Needless to say, the delish treats we made and shared were NOT a part of my daily calorie allotment (skinnyfest 2009, remember?)... Hmmmm.

Guess who was a very good girl and had very small nibbles and not even one full glass of wine? Amazing.

Tonight, I'm working out with the fabulous Katie Mac who has promised to kick my ass with some lunges midway through our run. Yesssssss - bring it!

I have a date with my scale tomorrow morning.
