My journey is...

Just a heads up...these posts are going to be out of sequence here in the beginning.  Don't worry I will catch up soon.  It will make you keep coming back.

Sometimes you just need to make a statement.  It's not always planned.  At times its absolutely, completely random.  Right?  Right.  This could be in a number of situations.  I'm specifically thinking of my personal appearance.  Hmmm, yes I am.  For tomorrow night's date that is.

So, here it is.  Tonight my plan is to make a statement with what I'm wearing.  Dinner.  I'm thinking a dress, sundress.  My sister told me earlier this evening that it is absolutely necessary to show cleavage.  My younger sister that is, 6-years younger.  So...I've got some decisions to make tomorrow afternoon.  Heels, flats, or espadrilles?  Hmmm...decisions, decisions.

Oh, and this is date #2.  Yes, he passed Round #1.  More details to come...

On a side note, I do not play the lotto.  I have maybe a total of three times in my life.  However, after work I went and bought tickets.  I had to take a shot at it, right?  I'm sure you did too.  It's ok, you can admit it, I know you did.  It's "our" little secret.   And with great sadness I tell you that I did not win the Mega Millions this evening.  Such a bummer, right?  I was soooo hoping that I would win!  But, I didn't.

Anyhow, have a wonderful rest of the evening.  And do tell your thoughts on making a statement for  date #2.

This is a new series coming to ...this & that... be on the lookout...

I'm inspired, I think.

Well, it's dawned on me that I haven't posted in quite a while.  Yes, yes I know...it's been a long time.

Anyhow, I was inspired just now to write a little post during my lunch hour.  I treated myself to a little Starbucks and sushi today.  I need to get back "into" my regular routine and literally schedule time out of each day to do my usual "routine" things.  If it's scheduled - I will do it!  How about you?  How do you schedule your "to-do's".

One thing in particular that I am getting back into is my daily workout regime.  Period.  No exceptions.  No excuses.  I'm doing it whether I like it or not and it IS very important that I do.  It's a state of mind if you will.  Literally, working out transforms my attitude and let's not forget the "ah-ha" feeling after the workout.  I simply love it and need/want/need it back!  Ha-ha, I know.  Your reading my post and thinking "wow, Heather's a bit motivated today...(your probably thinking it's the caffeine".  I'm so laughing as I'm typing this right now.

Side note:  I'm working on Easter cards for Blondie's Shop tonight.  Oh, and I'm participating in a Festival on April 7th too!  I'm contemplating cancelling my DVR and returning it...I spend a little bit of time every night managing which shows to delete...crazy, right?  I just don't have the time to watch everything.

I've switched up my reading list.  I will blog more about this later tonight.  And yes, I will include my new reading selections.  Sometimes you just need to mix things up.

Confession time...  Single life is ummm...interesting.  Dating...I have no comment on this right now (well, at least in this particular post).  And this will be no surprise...I'm missing my Chicago "crew".  I have a few close friends that live out of state and I'm so very much wishing they lived closer or that I had a Learjet at my disposal to go and see them whenever my heart desired...but, I don't.  But, it would be nice wouldn't it!  I'm funny, I know.

My life is currently a "re-work" of sorts in progress...does this make sense?  I'm re-inventing myself!  Yes, that's a great way to explain it.  And I'm on a mission to pay-off my bills.  Serious, honest to goodness, mission!  Yes, yes, yes I am.  However, I must say it's slow going.  And of course that means I need to curtail my traveling in order to do this...so, you have "me" wondering what to do with myself.  So, that means more work to be done on Blondie's Shop inventory!

Alrighty, make it an absolutely fabulous day!  I'll catch you later.

So True.

Right?  Right.
