Apart from the regular boring life stuff like groceries, cleaning and laundry, I watched Public Enemies (maybe wait for the DVD) and started reading Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris, the second book in the Sookie Stackhouse series. Oh! El Hub and I went house hunting yesterday and found a potential place, a condo in a town called Novato. I’m crossing my fingers and hoping it works out.
I’m sooo guilty of this! I totally “borrow” magazines from the gym. I don’t really feel bad about doing it, though, because I donate magazines back all the time.
Nothing yet because I woke up late this morning. I’ll probably end up doing a look with some bits from MAC Colour Craft or Chanel Venice.
Yesterday. I popped by the Macy’s Chanel counter in Corte Madera (about 10 minutes north of San Francisco) to pick up an Eye Gloss and to check out some brushes. By the way, if you’re going to be in the Bay Area this coming weekend, the Corte Madera Macy’s is hosting a Chanel Master Class on July 18th. The first class starts at 11 a.m. and second at 3 p.m., and it’s free to attend. For full deets, call (415) 927-3333 (extension 2362) and ask for Masooma. Don’t forget to tell her I referred you!
El Hub.
Going for a long run with lots of good music pumping through my iPod or curling up on the couch with a good book.
Khaki green sun dress, tan linen blazer and brown wedge sandals.
Do visualization exercises, run at least four times, start going for walks during the day.
I just finished guzzling my first cup of green tea (with honey, yum!), and I’m getting ready to go out for a quick 10 minute walk break. I haven’t been very good about giving myself breaks during the work day, so I figure there’s no time like the present to start a new, good habit.
How’s your Monday been so far? Before things start picking up on your end, let me know what’s going on. Just copy the empty list below, and paste it with your answers in the comments. I can’t wait to hear from you. 🙂

since i compete, i don’t usually bother with the diploma stuff except 2-3 months before the annual exams, which is september this year. i just pass them in case i want to teach later!
