beth-quintIt’s that time of year again and yep, once again I didn’t prepare for the company Christmas party ahead of time. On Wednesday night (which is so much better than Thursday night, I mean it’s hardly even procrastination), I called my sister in a panic for I had nothing to wear. Nothing to wear that would fit me that is! So, off to my sister’s closet I went, she pulled out a long jacket that looked like some of my grandmother’s drapes. Oh gosh, too big for me. She pulled out some genie in the bottle pants, darn too long. Then she pulled out this great black number that had spaghetti straps and was beautifully beaded. Score! We talked about shoes, nope I had that covered. Talked about jewelry, that too was covered for I wanted to wear my new bling my husband got me for our anniversary. On the way out the closet door (yes, she has a very large closet!) she handed me her boobs and said here, this is what I wore with the dress. Let me tell you, these things were fantastic. They stuck like glue and made me look ever so slightly like I had cleavage. Yes, me, cleavage! Yea. They were called Lingerie Solutions and I must invest in my very own pair. I highly suggest all the other chest impaired women out there do the same!

It doesn’t end there; I then stopped at Target to buy hose. It took me about 30 minutes to decide, I have a crazy hard time making small decisions. Anyway, it paid off; I hit the suck you in, smooth you out jack-pot. I know what you’re thinking, well sure you did, but could you breathe all night? The answer is yes, I felt great. I have tried these special suck you in type hose in the past and have ended up ripping them from my body in a rage about half way through the night. Not with these, I think I could even wear them all day at work too. Not sure why they are called Assets (kidding), but I’m cool with it! This is the best 10 bucks I’ve ever spent on hose. There’s an added bones, Sarah Blakely donates part of her proceeds to help women entrepreneurs. How cool is that?

So, here’s a picture of me and the girls in my department; I’m almost 15 years older than most and would like to think I can still hold my own (OK, I can dream, just don’t look too close!)

The Ladies

I know, I’m not the best at updating my blog.  Nobody really reads it anyway! I have been completely stuck on Facebook and Freecycle the last few weeks. Freecycle is so cool, you get rid of crap you don’t need and get other people’s crap … for free! Facebook is so cool because I’m talking to old friends that I haven’t seen in years. It’s getting me very excited for our reunion next summer. Can you believe 25 years? I feel old, but not that old. I am starting to yearn for extra cash for med-spas – a lot! (this is where you respond and tell me how great I still look!) So, I’m determined to look not just good, but hot by next summer. I did a double dose of envy girls on Exercise TV today, I figured the crap on the floor wasn’t going anywhere,  but my butt was and that is south! That makes me think of something else, the author of Sundry Morning has now started another blog called Bodies in Motion. Check it out, it’s supposed to be an motivational blog for normal people.

No pics this week, I just borrowed a Canon D10, so hopefully I can share some good pics soon. Have a great week.
