You are so lucky to be able to find a dress. I would like a new one for a wedding next month but there seems to be a scarcity of dresses in the few stores around here.

Strength training, strength training, strength training today and yesterday!!!!!!!  Lots of free weights, bench work....smith machine, crossover fly, shoulders, delts..chest work...simply an awesome workout!!! I used to think that in order for a workout to be a workout, you HAD to do cardio, eh, not anymore, I work up a sweat, get the heart rate up, and end up burning more calories during the day with this added muscle on my body!!! It’s awesome. 

Joan!! I know! What is up with the lack of fancy dresses? I think it may be because stores are awaiting the overload of dresses for homecomings/formal dances.  I’m leaving to go to Charlotte in a week and a half, and I am busting out the dress.  I’ll be sure to post pics!!!!!

Yes, whoever said strength training wasn’t a real workout hasn’t watched us sweat while doing one.

I bought a dress but I think it’s going back and I’ll just wear the black dress that I have. I don’t feel like driving all the way to Syracuse especially having a good idea that I won’t find anything there either!

I’m leaving for Charlotte to visit my best friend on Friday and am super excited.  Last night hubby and I went out to get me a few new things to wear.  My wardrobe in my closet needs to be gone through desperately since most things are A-too big or B-too small (um yeah, this is from PRE Baby and 108lbs....not going to happen lol).  I took a whole stack of clothes (in which my husband seemed to gravitate towards picking out miniskirts and short short everything) in and for once, almost everything looked really good.  Now if I could only make my wallet fatter.....I sat there in the dressing room and thought to myself, “This feeling of satisfaction is WAY better than any cookie or slice of pizza could ever give me”.  I need to remember that on days where I feel like I am stalled.

Can I get an amen to that?

Great entry, Julie, thanks for sharing
