Since we all seemed to have a case of the Mondays yesterday let's recap and focus on the positive.
I have two best parts of my Monday...
The first was receiving flowers that were sent to me at the office. From D . He knew I was worried that yesterday was going to be bad (I worried needlessly, btw, it wasn't awful at all) and he knows that I love fresh flowers. The arrangement has a bunch of calla lilies so my office smells awesome right now!
The second was curling up on the couch to watch a movie. I watched The Other Woman and laughed my ass off.

DS#1 has this bathrobe that he calls his "smoking jacket" thanks to stbxmil--it's really short and she teased him about it. Last night DS#2 fell asleep in the car on the way home and slept on the couch for a while. DS#1 covered him up with his smoking jacket and kissed him on the forehead. Then when DS#2 thrashed the robe off, DS#1 was all "Sorry I covered you up. I thought you might be cold.". This kid. OMG.

FURNITURE!
I don't care if you guys are tired of me talking about it. Everything fits beautifully. Which I was concerned about. I have a tendency to miss-measure.
This is a hold over from the weekend, went "shopping" in my closet and found 3 pair of pants that now fit and a couple dresses(the dresses are set aside for when it comes time to pack for my cruise).
D is a guy I recently started dating. We'd been friends for years (10? 15? - can't really remember exactly when we met). A few months ago I flew home to visit my bff (she is also friends with him) on the weekend she was planning a 40th bday party for him. We did a wine tasting festival thingy for his bday and just kind of clicked. I'd always been attracted to him. Hard not to be cause he's hot.
Anywho, after the festival we all went back to bff's house and at one point he and I found ourselves in a quiet moment on the patio. He brought up the topic of us dating. We'd gone out a few times 10 years or so ago but it never went anywhere and was never more than a date or two. We just talked about the fact we'd always been attracted to one another and he said if that were the case for so long, shouldn't we see if it might go somewhere. So we started talking more regularly and he came to visit me a few weeks ago. He's coming back again at the end of the month...
Finding out that my big cat lost five pounds over the last year! She's down from 18 lbs. to 13 lbs. This weight loss is fantastic for a cat who doesn't get much activity because of her bad knees. For her frame she should probably lose a couple more pounds, but it won't be bad for her to maintain at 13.

seeing my oldest nephew and two oldest nieces. Yesterday was my sisters birthday (their mother) so they all were over at the house to celebrate last night. It is nice when they are all together, the stories are hysterical.

My birthday! Spent the day with H and had amazing food, beer and wine!
Also got to talk on the phone with BIL (H's cousin, but they grew up as brothers.) He phoned me to wish me a happy birthday. He lives in CA and we miss him so much. It was great that he called and it was so nice to hear his voice and catch up!

I had a meeting yesterday with the national visual merchandising rep for Macy's. It is being organized through my school for a project we are working on with them. It went so well and she was awesome and was really impressed with our group and concept and project.
They're just plain ol' Jockey brand, bootcut. I got them at Marshall's for $13. I've had the capri version for ages and love those too!
Have you tried the Premium brand of C9 from Target? They are hard to find in the store but sell them online. They are amazing!
I have two pairs of the capris and live in them. I am going to buy a long pair here shortly.
I do have a pair from them. I like c9. I just want more colorful stuff. I bought a colorful pair from Fabletics but I don't like the quality of them vs the other brands. I have a shirt and bra from them that are really cool, the pants just didn't wow me.
