Friday Is Jean Day ...

So I braved it and wore my skinny jeans today. 

And I fought with the camera / timer at lunch so I could make this pic instead of using the webcam (which makes grainy pics) just so you could see how brave I was. 

Now, the real test of how I look will be the reaction from BoyChild and DIL tonight when I meet them for dinner and a movie.

We are going to see FOOTLOOSE!! 

I'm not usually one for remakes, and I was not happy they were remaking this one (I mean how can you improve on a great movie like that?) But when I saw the trailer I changed my mind and am looking forward to it.

And a couple of weeks ago BoyChild was mentioning that he felt a little wierd because he wanted to go see Footloose (I guess it's presumed to be a 'chick flick'?) , so I said I'd go see it with him.

I'll let you know how we like it. 

Skinny Jeans!

My very first pair of skinny jeans EVER!  

I am FAR from skinny, but I needed the skinny legs so I can wear my new boot cuffs this week when it turns cooler.  (The boot cut jeans do not tuck in well!)

Also, this is a poor quality picture, taken with the webcam.

I hope to have BabyGurl make some 'good' pics over the next few weeks (hoping I make that last five pounds before Thanksgiving).

(Yeah, I know the ticker says 3 to go, but that has changed. Oops!)

Option #2 ...

As promised, Mother-Of-The-Groom Dress Option #2.

I haven't really accessorized this one.  I think it needs colorful earbobs.  Oh, and I am going to "get my toes did" too, no matter which dress I choose. 

Daughter-in-law-to-be posted on her facebook this morning "sixteen more days!"

Falling Behind ...

Will have to do some more posting / catching up later this week.  Was sick last week, and had the Gabster over the weekend.  Then sort of relapsed with the sickness on Sunday night / Monday, so haven't even posted a few pics of the precious angel yet. 

Been so busy / sick there's been no gym time (tomorrow will be two weeks, yikes!) but because of the loss of appetite I've still managed to lose this week.  Gotta get back in the routine soon though.  Might actually make my interim goal before the wedding (in just over two weeks!) and then I'll still have another five pounds to go after that.  I feel good that I'm gonna get there (and stay there) this time though.  Of course, I'll need all new winter clothes (Ross' here I come!)

Will try to get you a pic of "Mother of the Groom Dress Option #2" soon.  Maybe even tomorrow.  :-)

(Oh, and I went to Nashville last night too, so I'll try to recap that in the next day or two as well.)

Option #1 ...

Mother of the Groom - Dress Option #1 ....

Wore this to work today.  

Will wear Option 2 one day next week and will post a pic.  

Will need opinions.  :-)

(Please ignore the squinty face.  The sun was very bright!)
