I wore a skirt to work today and to be completely honest in the almost 2 years I've worked there they've never seen me in a skirt. Well I did go to the interview in a skirt but the whole group didn't see me.
I got loads of complements today which was super nice. I plan to wear them more often as the ones I have in my closet finally fit once again. Plus with the warmer weather it's a nice option. The only drawback is I can't go without nylons as I am uber pale (and prefer it that way). I do feel I could blind people if I don't have any sort of colour and I can't be bothered with continually applying self tan. I plan to the all over body spray tan before Vegas.
At lunch I exchanged my Adidas and I wanted a pair of my Mizuno Wave Alchemy's. I thought I had this down as I knew exactly what I wanted. Well I walk back to the shoe wall and my shoe is gone. The helper dude tells me they packed them up to ship to a different store. The shipment hadn't gone out yet so he rescued a pair for me. Can you imagine if I had waited a day but thank goodness for their solid customer service. That's a shout out to the Sport Check in downtown Calgary (it is a pretty nice store) . I whipped into the Bay in search of more nylons and got completely overwhelmed by the options. I decided to got to Walmart instead as I won't get lost in all the options.
When I got home I immediately changed and headed out for a mini - mega walk.
The new runners will now be my indoor pair and my old indoor pair are now my outdoor pair. I took them for a spin.
There was super strong wind tonight and at one point I had a long stretch facing straight into it. When I finally out of it I actually felt tired from pushing myself through it.

I don't know if I was just slow today or if it was the wind but I found my 5K route to just right tonight. I have been tired today and I blame that on my long day yesterday.
Tomorrow I head into a two day conference. I'm looking forward to it and my Fort McMurray co-workers and I are going here for dinner. Not exactly point friendly but one can make better choices and keep focused on the day. I think I met get the veggie burger and swap out the cheddar bun for whole wheat. I will have fries as there pretty fabulous here. I still have a decent amount of flex points left if necessary. One of my co-workers is also doing WW in Fort McMurray so she and I will keep each other focused as I have no clue what the options will be for food. They do offer breakfast each day but I'll be having breakfast at home and I just hope they have some fresh fruit that I can use as a snack.
Watching BL as I type this and I still don't have a favourite player.
I hope you all had a fabulous Tuesday.
Hugs!!!
Good for you...the compliments feel great dont they? How about a pic? And the shoe store incident sounds like something that would happen to me! lol..........and I think Im pulling for Daris or Sunshine! Oh, and Ashley! lol
ReplyDeleteI just bought new running shoes not too long ago but I think next time I need them I'm going to look for those Mizunos because everyone seems to rave about them!
ReplyDeleteI like my Adidas but they changed them a bit too much this last time and I find them a bit stiffer than I would like.
I'm with you on BL. I just haven't gotten attached to anyone this season. I did really like Stephanie and I'm still rooting for her to be the at home winner. I'm thinking most likely one of the guys will win as I can't see how Sunshine or Ashley can catch up to Sam or Michael at this point.
ReplyDeleteI am so looking forward to the makeover show so Michael and Daris can get those mops tamed!
