OOTWW

After lunch on Tuesday I was literally busting at the seams on my buttoned up tee. I mean, my shirt wasn’t even that tight to begin with. Very attractive as you can imagine. Either way this shirt is definitely going into the donate pile. I can’t eat when I wear it, haha! Noticing I was pretty neutral this week with some bright yellow randomly in there. I also need to whip out the ironing board soon for some of these articles of clothing. Mess.

I’m excited to post my CrossFit journal for you guys tomorrow — I went four days in a row this week: Monday through Thursday. Madness. I’m sore all over. Now, off to design a club flyer. Apparently Tiesto is coming to my city. (The flyers are not for him unfortunately.)

What does everyone have planned for this weekend? CrossFit Regionals are going on in Toronto today til Sunday. I may end up going to watch some of it.

Coming up with blog titles is hard…

Back in May I sent some flowers to my Boyfriend’s family in Newfoundland. This was the photo that I received of what I ordered off the telephone. I like to order from this one place back home as they always create gorgeous floral arrangements. I spoke to the woman on the phone and she asked if I wanted some exotic flowers.

I gotta say the arrangement is so very nice, and well pieced together. But I am starting to get a little bit sick of the Bird of Paradise flower. It’s not exotic when all of the places make it, and call it exotic. Sure, I absolutely love this weird flower. Wouldn’t a bit of hibiscus look nice in there too? I’m really glad that Boyf’s family loved the arrangement.

I’m thinking of getting some fresh flowers and putting them all over our apartment, and even on the balcony as I’m needing some fresh greens in my life :)

Birthday surprise/Bath & Body Works

Even though for some reason my gift was re-directed to STRATFORD yesterday, today in the mail came a little birthday surprise from my Bestie who lives 6 hours away. I can’t wait to go burn this candle that smells like amazing and I can’t stop sniffing it. This weekend I’m definitely going to spend a little dough at Mexx with the gift card she gave me!

What’s your favorite Bath and Body Works scent? Did you get an e-mail yesterday too, telling us all that Coconut Lime Vebena is discontinuing, along with other scents? Disappointing! See?

On my lunch break today I decided to go into the mall to see if I could snag any deals with my Mexx gift card, I ended up popping into BBW as well. Not just 50% off like the sign above says, but I got 75% off the discontinued soaps. $1.50~ EACH! Did you know that when you get those coupons on your receipt that they never expire? I had a Save $10 when you spend $30 on my receipt from October 2010 and it was of course still valid. My entire purchase came to $24. TWENTY FOUR DOLLAHS!

I got my hair cut yesterday after work. I went to the same salon that I used to go to about two years ago. Before I switched and went to the guy who screwed up my hair in April. I asked this new guy to not cut a lot off, but cut a lot off at the same time to make it healthy. I didn’t want anymore layers because it was looking stringy. This is what he came up with! Straight across cut, that looks thicker at the bottom.

I used to have really long hair about 6 years ago when I first met Scott. Since then my hair has basically stayed the same length, a little longer than shoulder length. I can’t seem to grow it out any longer than that or it looks bad. I get regular trims every 9 weeks so I can let it grow out instead of getting it cut every 6-8 which maintains the length. I get the split ends cut off. However, I do wash and style my hair every day. I tried for about a month once to just wash it every 3rd day and I just couldn’t do it anymore. I love fresh, clean hair lol. OH THE HAIR DRAMA. I’m so sick of it. Grow already!


My hair in 2005. Loved this length.


At a wedding last October 2010. It looked good here too.


Yesterday vs. Today. Before/After my hair cut. Now I’m starting over so to speak. All one length (sort of) and trying to baby it, perhaps I’ll just not wash it often. Ugh. I hate that.
