Getting Back to the Basics!

Good evening!!

This seems like it has been a really crazy busy day!!! I have just gotten home from a REALLY REALLY LOOOONG day of work, a quick run to pick up a couple of my FAVORITE BOOKS OF ALL TIME, Pride and Prejudice, and The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (both in hardback, for my collection), and then dashed off to the grocery store to pick up dinner!!! WHEW!!!

Now I am going to confide something to you that maybe not a lot of people know about me, and for some of you this may be TMI, BUT, I LOVE when I get to come home, slip my shoes off at the door, get something cold to drink, tonight it is sugar free Orange Creme sparkling water, hang up the work blazer, and slip OUT OF MY UNDERWIRE BRA!!!! WHOOOO-BABY!!!! Now, I realize I might have just lost some of you there, but HONEY!! I am TELLING YOU!!! Talk about that feeling of, “LOOK, HONEY, I’M HOME!!” SAH-WHEET BLISS!! 😉

Thank you for letting me share that with you!! LOL! My sweetie and I are getting ready to sit down to a really late, light dinner, and then, of course, we are going to watch another episodes of Bones tonight. We are still playing catchup on NetFlix, and watch on average one episode per day, which is pretty good seeing they are about 45 minutes a piece!!

Hey, I just realized that if I wanted to, I could do exercises for 45 minutes while watching Bones every day, just to make sure that I get my time in. If I have time enough for Bones, I surely have time for EXERCISE!! What do you think???

I also picked up a copy of Martha Stewart Living this evening, I haven’t read through one of those in over 10 years – WOW! Has it really been that long!?? I remember when Jason and I were first married we didn’t have a lot of money for any kind of material things are for doing much more than finding free stuff to do, but if I was ever having a particularly rough week, my sweetie would manage to rustle up the funds to go pick up a copy of this magazine for me. I would just spend a whole lazy afternoon skimming through pictures, reading the articles, getting inspired, and dreaming about my future life that I just knew I was going to have – I may have to spend some time doing that this weekend!!! Simply DIVINE!!!

Have a FABULOUS evening!!

Note to Chunk Dunker’s: Take some time to reward yourself for a job well done today! Look for something that you did well, it could be large or small, and treat yourself to some pampering, time with a friend, maybe some flowers?? You will not only feel great about doing something good for yourself, but you will reinforce your positive behavior and it may subconsciously help you want to do that good action again!! GO CHUNKY DUNKER’S!!!
