Wait did that dress say Calvin Klein??

August 28th, 2010

Today Matthew and I went to the mall to pick up his suit at Macys. Before we left, I went to check out the plus size clothes there. I know that they go up to 3x and I wanted to see what sale or clearance items they had. OMG do not take me to that section. Macys has such beautiful clothes! I could have took the whole plus size section home with me!

So I happen to see a beautiful brown and white dress. It was love at first site. I checked the tag and it was a 3x (my size) and then I seen that it was Calvin Klein and it was $119 dollars. I was so sad. I told myself that I would just find something else and not be disappointed. Then a really nice sales lady told me those dresses on the rack that I took from were 50% off! So I took the dress and two others to the dressing room and would you believe the Calvin Klein dress fit! I was in so much shock, I almost cried a little because I could never ever fit into anything designer. Its not even about the label, but knowing all the hard work I did really paid off!

I got the dress for $50! I was so excited and happy when I left. I still can’t believe it. That doesn’t give me the right to slack off either. I still need to fit into the the dress by September 18th for my cousins wedding. My goal is to wake up with Matthew every morning (besides the weekend) and head to the gym by 5am. This way I get a great workout, nobody is there to bother me and I have all day to do other things. I am going to try it out and see what happens. They say when trying something out, the first three days are the hardest, so well see if I can get thur it.

I have been really upping my workouts. I have even tried running. I can only run for 30 seconds or less, but I remember a sad girl that only could do less then 5 mins on the elliptical and now can do over a hour without stopping! That sad girl was once me! I figure if I can do 30 seconds of running and then do five mins walking and so on and so on, I will get use to it. Then I will be running good. I even can let go of the bar too and run. Running on a treadmill sort of makes me scared because I am afraid I will fall off, so I plan on doing running on and off the treadmill. Every little bit helps. Matthew and I even talked about getting bikes and a bike rack to ride bikes at the park near our house. Its all about moving. Gotta keep on moving!

Whine whine whine

August 27th, 2010

Ugh. I was having a good day until *someone* whined about how I do laundry. Guess what, if you don’t like it then do your own! I am not your maid. I tried to be nice and place the clothes in the basket while I get others laundry in the dryer and I get blasted on how horrible I do laundry. I really didn’t need to be put down for laundry. Hey, at least I try!

Anyways… so last night I went out with a few friends and returned my bag from Lane Bryant and got this bag in pink and black. The one from Lane Bryant was too big. I didn’t have a zipper which means anyone can get into it. Even though it was a great deal for $9.99, it was just too big. The two new ones I got are from New York and Company. I have been lusting over all their products. I can’t fit into their clothes, but there jewelry, purses and makeup bags are all too cute! Plus I get a triple a discount of 15% off plus whatever sale they have going on. So I got two bags for about $15 dollars a piece.

So all morning I have been cleaning non stop. I am really surprise of the energy I have today. I usually don’t have this much, but I guess maybe its because I got some fresh air this morning. I bet I will crash tonight!

Tonight Matthew and I are going to dinner. I can’t wait. We haven’t gone out to a nice dinner in awhile. I can’t wait for 5pm to come! Before we go, I gotta get my butt in the shower because I am a hott mess!!

What are your weekend plans? I don’t have any plans Saturday, but Sunday we are going to church. What else were doing, I am not sure.

May I have my blanky please?

August 24th, 2010

Ugh this weather has been so crappy. Its raining hot and cold. Some days are cold and some are hot. Today happen to be cold. Its grey and dark outside. It makes perfect sleeping weather. And how I would LOVE to sleep all day, things must get done. Ugh. We got a new mattress on Saturday. It is taking some time to get used too. One half of the bed is made for Matthew and the other half is made for me. Sometimes when I get in the middle to cuddle with Matthew, I fell like I am slanted. Its a little odd.

I have been getting a great response to my giveaway @ Inmyshoppingbag.Com . I can’t wait to give away more products. I have two other products I bought to give away and a few little items to give away too.

I scored this purse (in purple) and a jacket for $9.99 at Lane Bryant! Speaking of Lane Bryant, they are having a sale on the whole store tomorrow for 40% off everything but Spanx. I don’t need any clothes, but I thought I would share it!

I feel so sleepy. The weather is playing with my bed. Its telling me to take a nap. Its cold, rainy and dark outside. Its perfect sleeping weather, but work must get done first!

Giveaway at my review site Inmyshoppingbag.Com

August 23rd, 2010

I have a brand new review site. I am hosting a giveaway for a fairy mini wand! For more details, check out this link!

Not what I thought it would be

August 21st, 2010

So am looking for a job and I decided to apply at the gym I go to for sales. Well, I had my interview and I was told that I have to bring my own leads. Which means I have to bring people into the gym. You can’t force someone to join the gym if they don’t want too. I wouldn’t be getting any base pay, just commission. When she told me that, I was totally turned off. I need a base pay. Oh well, there is tons of jobs out there, I just haven’t found the right one yet!

I don’t know if you know or not, but I have a new review site! Its called Inmyshoppingbag.Com. I tried coming up with something for hours with a friend of mine and finally decided on that. Shauna was very nice enough to host me! Thank you Shauna!!! So go check out my review site! I will be giveaway a Fairy baby wand – wand massager! I am planning on starting the giveaway/contest Sunday. So be sure to sign up!! This wand is brand new and it charges by usb! The geek in my got really excited about items like this! So I will be giving one away. I will also be giving away a purple Mia and a devine pink and black corset storage box sometime this fall and winter!

Last night we went to pick out a new mattress and boxspring set. Our current mattress on my side sags so much. I am guessing its due to my weight and or its a defect. So we got credit for a new bed. So with our credit we got a new bed, boxspring and 2 amazing pillows. The guy was super nice and hooked us up. The pillows were $120 dollars a piece! Wow I was shocked when I heard that come out of his mouth. He was able to give us a great deal for 2 pillows for $50 a piece. So we spent about $500 dollars and got a complete new bed set and two pillows. They are getting delivered today and I can’t wait to sleep on it. I haven’t been sleep good at all lately. I really need some decent sleep.

Moving sites around

August 9th, 2010

So I moved my review site back to whosthatgirl. Since I no longer have a reseller package, I am hosting it there. I have a nice them up, but I need to redesign my logo. I just put something up so it wouldn’t be bare.

I have an idea for my next months theme. I have been inspired by a makeup compact that I got at the bridal shower. It has the most prettiest design on it. So I am going to base my theme off of it. I can’t wait to start working on it!

Tonight I went to the gym and tried running. It was incredibly hard to do. I tried it twice and my heart rate went from 155 to 170 almost in seconds. I only did it for twenty seconds! So running for me right now is not good. Hey I tried at least.

After running I was so tired. I did a little on the bike and left. Today I just felt so tired and out of it. I took a two hour nap today which is why I am not tired now. I know if I go on the computer, I will be up till 2 or 3 in the morning. Next thing I know Matthew will be awake around 5am getting ready for work. So I am gonna force myself to stay in bed and do some reading if I am so bored. This is why wordpress for blackberry is so awesome.

I’m off to read. Good night!

Bridal shower

August 7th, 2010

Today was my cousins bridal shower. It was super nice. I met a lot of nice people. I got to bring home some beautiful pink roses! I am really not a fan of roses, but they were pink and pretty!

Tonight I painted my nails. I always bite my nails. So I have a month and couple days to grow them out for the wedding. Speaking of which I am hoping to loose 50 pounds by then. 27 more pounds to go. I plan on changing up my menu and trying to get at least 2 hours of cardio and strength training in. I know I can do it.

Tomorrow I am gonna start making a daily plan of what I am going to eat what workout I plan to do. I need to stay on track and keep on moving along. No stops or detour for me! I am going to drink more water and less crystal light. I could down a few gallons of crystal light raspberry tea like its nothing.

I got my free goodies from Eden Fantasys today. I will do a complete review on both products I got. I can now cross those two items off and pick out the next thing I want. The “refer a friend” promotion is a great way to rack up some great gift cards. I have a few more friends I wanna get to do a review.

I can not sleep. I am wide awake and I need to be wake at 7:30am for church tomorrow. Plus I plan on going to the gym to work out. Well see how tired I am.
