Good Morning Sunshine...

What a HOOOOOOTTTTT morning...the hotter it gets the more I want to stay home and not have to put all these clothes on.

I want to say that I may not have the body of Beyonce, but I certainly don't have the body of Aretha Franklin (no disrespect the sista can blow). But I am mindful of what I put on when it is hot. I am working on some of the areas that need to be tightened so what is comfortable for some is not comfortable for me. There are waaaaaayyyyy too many people letting the belly jiggle and think that it's sexy. That mess hurts after a while. Especially when you have a lot of it. I have shedded a bit of it in the last few months. I haven't gotten on the scale. My sign is what I put on. I am not looking for a number. I am looking for a feeling.

So with the sun shining bright this morning, I had to pick the coolest outfit that I could find without being under dressed for work. I grabbed some cute strappy sandals and made sure my feet were properly moisturized...okay, let me hit that subject for a second...if you must wear sandals, please, please, please make sure that your feet are NOT jacked up. For a long time I kept my feet inside of shoes until I got over my ticklish feet problem and had the lady go to work on my feet. Now I might not be able to plop down money every other week to get them worked on but I do make sure that I keep them looking special, especially since folks are always checking out my shoes. Here is a tip: When you get out of the shower, put some type of moisturizer (Vaseline, Shea butter, Crisco, whatever) on your feet, then put some socks on your feet for while you are getting dressed and even for your commute to work. By the time you put your good sandals on your feet are looking good and feeling wonderful. Okay...great...

Anyway, things seem to be looking up at work. My boss is making progress and stirring up the waters. Let's see what the weeks end brings.

Gotta skate..

PLEASE SAY IT AGAIN! Folks act like they have no clue how to be appropriate during the summer months. The feet thing ...man you know I don't even have to say it! -->
