Patty, hope everything is OK. I guess I'll start us up and get us moving along this morning. Anything new and exciting in your neck of the woods? Plans for the day?

Good Morning,

A sunny, cool Autumn like day here on LI. Here tell that rain is moving in at some point over the next few days.

I woke up this really early this morning with a headache and just couldn't go back to sleep. That might make for a very long work day ahead of me. I'll also be confused all day since I took yesterday off and probably will spend part of the day trying to figure out what day of the week it is.

Yesterday was a nice day off. DD and I headed out early to do some Christmas shopping. We were in Target for quite awhile. The great nephews love pjs so I found some cute pj sets for all of them. I'll add in a little craft type gift and they will done. DD headed to Fridays for an early lunch and then on to a bridal shop to look for a dress for me. 3 possibilties but one just seems like too much dress for me although I have to say it was very figure flattering on me:

The other possibility was a beautiful blue color and I called it the Grecian Goddess look since it was a very flowing type of fabric, strapless but a little too low in the front that I felt like I would spend the day pulling it up. They did say they could make straps for it. The other was an off the rack which was navy and cut slightly off the shoulder. It had long chiffon sleeves which I could never do in August but again they said they could pull the sleeves up to elbow length or remove the sleeves. It was nice but very plain although it looked nice on me it just seemed to be a little too simple I couldn't find links for either of these other dresses anywhere. I'm not sure I want to spend the money on a dress and they have to spend more money for those type of alterations. Of course when I said I was looking for simple, not much beading and my budget I was getting a lot of everything but. So I'm really back to square one. This is where I miss having a nearby gf to call and say you need to come shopping and give me an unbiased opinion. I have a good idea of what I want it just seems what I really want is above my budget.

I went for my cleaning at the dentist as I smile with my freshly cleaned pearly whites which are free of any type of dental work for the next 6 months. I did get a tsk, tsk that I haven't been flossing like I should.

On to today, back to the 9 to 5. DH will be running in and out the door this evening so I'll be making a simple chicken stir fry. Otto will need to go out for a walk as do I since that has been my only form of exercise although stopping every 2 feet for another sniff I don't really consider a very good form of exercise. More mental for me than physical. This is really shaping up to be a terrible challenge week for me.

Time is ticking away and better get a move on to get myself to the workplace on time. Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Susan
