Yay for tomorrow being Friday. Even though I'm still reeling from Prince Joey McItyre's choice of Madeleine over me and his fathers betrayal. This Choices app has me so sucked in and emotionally involved that it's reached a point of being ridiculous. I can no longer separate the fictional Royal Romance from my true reality. This is a horrible app and I had wish I never started playing it. And also I need to type this up fast so I can go play another chapter.
Today's Lula is a solid purple Amelia. Because purple. And I had to throw black leggings under it because Minnesota. I'm still not an Amelia fan, but it does have pockets. And it's purple.
Last night's LulaJammies consisted of ice cream cone/popsicle leggings and a way oversized, super stretchy striped Classic that at first glance doesn't match. But if you look closely, the stripes are the same color as the ice cream. Plus, it was pajamas.

Twenty-five years and my life is still.....
It's Wednesday! The middle of the week. I'm excited for both my pedi with ZarahZou and the Vikings game. But we need to quit looking ahead and take this game seriously. The team that played the second half against the Saints is not the team I want to play in Philly. I don't want it come down to 10 seconds left, we can not expect another miracle. We need to play hard for the full 60 minutes!!!
Okay, continuing on the purple theme, today's Lula is an AMAZING lace purple Lindsay, a solid white Lynnae and leggings. Do you have any idea how hard it is to be careful not to spill coffee on yourself when you're white? I've done good so far, but it's a long day! Fingers crossed I don't spill or splash!

I tried my imagination, but I was disturbed....
Tuesday! And I need a reminder to make pedi appointments for me and ZarahZou. We are overdue. I've had to paint my own toenails three times since our last pedicure.
I spent all of last night achieving (??) level 1076 in Bubble Pop Fever. I'm both horrified and proud of myself. I've also been playing this other app called Choices and it's like a "choose your own adventure" story. But all of the really good choices involve spending actual money. I've been wearing the same dress for the whole social season and I know that Prince Joey McIntyre (you can name the prince yourself) will not choose me because I did not wear the current Cordonia fashion to the ball. Because it would have cost me $4.99 US. It's a fun story, but I just wish that more choices were free.
Today's Lula is a purple Perfect (Skol!!), digital flower leggings and a sparkly white Lindsay.
Last night's Lula-Jammies was "wonder woman" leggings and an Irma.

And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down....
So this major sports thing happened last night, and I still can't really talk about it without my heart stopping. I had spent a couple minutes resigning myself to the loss. We are, after all, the Vikings. This is how we roll. And I say that only half-jokingly. Us fans have been through a lot. I texted the Princess that we lost and then I had to catch my breathe and slow down my heart to text her back "haha. just kidding." I was wearing Diggs yesterday, and he is my new hero. Right after Barr, of course. No matter what happens next week, we have had a phenomenal season and played some great games. And we already know that being a Vikings fan is not a fate for the weak!
The rest of my weekend was good. Still coughing. But still optimistic that it will end. I stopped at Target and my checkout ended with both me and the cashier all teary. I got the Princess a couple of birthday cards and the cashier mentioned that she got her daughter one of them and it was so perfect because it was so thoughtfully written, a little sappy but very meaningful. Then we exchanged stories about out daughters, we each have only one child, a wonderful daughter. She was getting all teary and I was doing fine. Until we got to the gift cards I was buying and she asked how much I wanted on each. And I said "$26, because she is going to be 26 on the 26th". And then the cashier got even more teary and that's when I lost it. I miss the Princess. Even if I know Cali is the best place for her right now.
Ok, on to today's Lula. A purple (SKOL!!) Carly with black leggings and black boots. This Carly is not only purple, it doesn't have a pocket. That's unusual for a Carly. I love this one so much!

i'm just sipping on chamomile....
It's Friday!! Still haven't gotten a good nights sleep, but who needs sleep when you've got coffee. I brought 2 large coffee cups into work with me today. Can't have too much! And I'm on level 994 of Bubble Pop Fever. I would like to request cupcakes be served at my intervention, please.
I'm going to have to miss yet another event due to this cough. I would not want me around either a new baby or other humans while I'm hacking up a lung. Because yuck! So I'll stay home and try to rest. Since I finished the antibiotics days ago, this must be viral and it's hanging on.
Today's Lula is a dark gray Irma with polka dots, paired with a sweater from Maurices and jeans.

Yeah yeah they, they, they blew our minds.....
It's the day before Friday! And it's snowing. Next week is my week to have the underground heated parking garage spot at work. But the person who has it this week works from home Thursdays and Fridays, so I got it for the rest of this week, too. And today is the perfect underground heated garage parking spot day!! I lucked out!
I got this product: https://goo.gl/fR9tFu in my most recent Ipsy shipment and I think I'm in love. I've only used it twice, but so far it is not heavy or greasy, and it makes my hair look decently smooth. And it's semi-affordable. I expected it to be eleventy-million dollars, but I think it might actually be in my price range. Yay for tamed hair!
Today's Lula is a solid light pink Irma, a navy Lindsay and leggings. And I even added the Premier Designs Jellybean necklace to dress it up a bit more.

Something in the wind has learned my name.....
The title of my autobiography is going to be "The Cough That Won't Quit". Because I have a cough that won't quit. You know it's bad when co-workers throw a handful of cough drops at you. I'm looking forward to a full nights sleep. Someday. If nothing else comes from not sleeping, I've managed to get to level 911 on Bubble Pop Fever. Yay for accomplishments!
I'm so happy it's warmed up a bit, even if it sounds like it's temporary.
My 28 game win streak on Words with Friends just ended. And I only lost by a couple points but I was stuck with a Q and absolutely no place to play it. Oh, well. I can't win every time.
Today's Lula is a solid black Cassie and Lindsay and a leggings material Perfect. Anything in leggings material is amazing, and this Perfect is no exception. It's so soft!!

No time to wallow in the mire.....
It's not Monday, so at least there's that. It's 417 degrees in my office. I'd rather it be 47. I can put on a sweater, but I can't take anything off. Lots of work to get done today. And maybe a load of laundry when I get home tonight. Or maybe not. We shall see.
Last night I watched Over the Top, a Sylvester Stallone movie from the late 80's. The movie was just okay, but the music was fantastic. Meet Me Halfway by Kenny Loggins. One of the greatest songs ever. So in honor of that, today I'm going to listen to songs by Loggins and Messina. Right after I finish with The Doors.
Today's Lula is a solid black Irma and floral leggings. Comfy and cute!
Last nights Lula-jammies was one of the first Irma's I ever bought paired with black leggings. This is a super fun, colorful top that is a bit bright to wear to work.

You say I'm a dreamer, We're two of a kind
Monday! The only things I really accomplished this weekend were a couple of really good naps. But they were fantastic and I have no regrets. I'd do it all over again if I could. I also spent the weekend watching football to check out the vikings possible opponents. I'm excited for our next game. And am taking this one game at a time.
I also may or may not have watched several episodes of Heartland. I don't know what I'll do when this show is over. I'm very invested! I even decided to keep the horsicorn/unihorse (see photo below) leggings I bought to gift because I'm sort of obsessed with wanting to own a horse now. I don't even like animals. But I want a pony!!
Today's Lula is a navy and red Nicole with a red Lindsay. And I threw on a pair of black leggings because this is Minnesota.
Here are the unihorse/horsicorn leggings. They are a horse and unicorn combo. Weird but interesting. Paired with a Randy because nothing matches these.
Yesterday's Lula was a pink Perfect and purple and pink polka dot leggings. And, of course, socks with hearts on them. <3 nbsp="" p="">3>

Just one more dance and then we're good to go.....
It's Friday! I'm so ready for a weekend and lots and lots of naps. Maybe an end to this cough. I got into bed last night around 9:30 and wanted to play a game or 2 of Bubble Pop Fever. The next thing I knew, it was nearly midnight and I was still struggling to beat one of the boards. That game is horrible and evil. And I apparently have no impulse control. And no concept of time.
I'm still working on closing out the accounting month (and year), so lots of work to do today.
Today's Lula is a Perfect that kind of reminds me of the pattern of a scrub top. I threw a denim colored Lindsay over it. I don't super match, but I'm dressed. That's what is important, right??
Also, the bestest Christmas present came yesterday. As a bonus, my Norwex cleaning cloth thingy matches perfectly.

And I discovered that my castles stand......
Tomorrow is Friday! I slept for 5 hours straight last night without waking up coughing! I think a corner has been turned! I still have a lot of work to get done for month end, but I'm feeling optimistic about it since I'm feeling a bit better.
I need to put gas in my car, but it's way too cold. My fingers are crossed that I can put it off until Saturday's warm up. Speaking of temperature, yesterday it was 63 in my office. Today it is at least 108. I hate being hot!
Today's Lula is a fantastic Carly that I got FOR FREE for sharing Cherie's live Facebook video. She is the bestest, most sweetest Lula retailer ever! She doesn't use free prizes as an opportunity to unload unsellable Lula. Her share prizes and free gifts are always fabulous. And she really gets to know her clients tastes and preferences. I have loved every single free pair of leggings I have gotten from her, and it has been MANY! And this Carly is beautiful! I paired it with black leggings, because Minnesota weather, and a sweater from Target because I expected it to be 63 degrees in the office.

I know I got to be right now 'cause I can't get much wronger......
Wednesday! I really need a manicure. And a pedicure. And a massage. And a facial. I guess I need a full spa day. But since that is sort of out of my budget, I just need to repaint my nails. Unless the chipped look is in?
Knock on wood, but I think my cough is only about 62% of what it was yesterday. I see the light at the end. I may just recover from this. Aside from that, I've got nothing. I feel boring today.
But I don't look boring, I've got fabulous Lula. Today is a solid gold Classic, a red Lindsay and leggings. Upon closer inspection of the leggings, I see they may in fact be hot pink and not red. Either way, they are fun.

If you have to ask you can't afford it lingerie ....
Back to work. I had a pretty okayish New Years weekend if you consider spending 3 full days coughing to be acceptable. My New Years resolution is to not be sick. I'm failing so far, but I'm hopeful. Eventually this viral-bacteria-whatever-it-is has to leave. Right?!?
I spent NYE on the couch trying to pay attention to Steve Harvey's New Years show. But it was rather boring and I wanted to play Bubble Pop Fever.
Last night I watched Knocked Up for the ten thousandth time. I am totally in love with Katherine Heigl's lipstick in that movie. I tried to google it to find out what it was, but I got bored after 17 seconds and wanted my life back so I gave up. But if anyone is interested in a research project, I'd be willing to pay you. And by pay you, I mean I can offer you a Target gift card with $1.72 left on it and a full bottle of fabric softener since I cut down on using it since it's not Lula-friendly, and also I would give you my eternal gratitude. And even my internal gratitude if you want it. I'd also point you in a couple of different directions on how to go about the research that I am just too lazy to do. Let me know if this project interests you.
I'm sad to write that my dear, former co-worker JC passed away on Dec 30th. She was very, very sick and her passing is not a complete surprise, but it still super sucks. She was one of my favorite co-workers until she was forced into retirement due to her health. She is greatly missed. And that is 2 holiday's in a row that I have lost a kind, caring, wonderful person. It just sucks.
Okay, on to today's Lula. I am wearing a super cute polka dot Lynnae topped with a solid cream colored Lindsay paired with some floral leggings. I love this outfit!
One of my outfit's this weekend was this adorable pair of leggings with old-fashioned phonographs on them paired with a bright gold colored Irma. A super fun weekend outfit!

My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar....
FRIDAY!!! It's been a really long short week. I'm very glad for the 3 day weekend. Time to do laundry and rest and hopefully get rid of this stupid cough. And sleep. I need sleep. No matter what I take, the cough keeps waking me up. It seems to be lessening in intensity (knock on wood) and I bet a good 8-10 hours straight of sleep would most definitely help!
On Christmas I won this adorable Hawaiian picture frame playing the dice game. As a bonus, it smells delicious! It's floral scented! So last night I went through my big box of pictures looking for one of me and the Princess to put into it. But I couldn't find one. I have no recent printed pictures. So I settled for this one of her and 2 of her aunts until the next time I order from Snapfish or something.
Today's Lula is a Randy with jeans. Comfortable and boring!

I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined......
Last night I slept for a record 23 minutes. This cough is just too much. I've tried Mucinex, NyQuil, decongestants, expectorants, suppressants.....Now I am trying Augmentin. Fingers crossed!
I had to repaint my nails last night. Here's to hoping that the color change doesn't cause us to lose to the Bears. But at least if we do, we will know it's all the fault of OPI and chipping nail polish.
I have exactly 127 loads of Lula laundry to do this weekend. I sort of let it pile up a bit, and now it's nearing overwhelming. So, therefore, my New Years Eve plans involve the laundromat.

Like the latest fashion, Like a spreading disease
Wednesday and back to work after a nice, long weekend. For the record, and since my blog is the official record, I have slept a grand total of 7 hours in the last 5 nights. Every single time I fall asleep, I wake up coughing. I am so sick of being sick. If "Hit by a Bus" becomes the new epitome of high fashion, I am finally going to be runway ready.
I had a very good Christmas, despite being sick. I pretty much won life when I opened 25 pairs of socks. Probably the greatest gift ever. and they are all fun. Stripes, polka dots, florescents..... Also, speaking of winning presents, I scored maybe the greatest smelling candle in the history of candles at my sisters while playing the dice game. It's honey-scented. Like real honey. I didn't even know it was possible. I am in love!
Today's lazy Lula is a stripey-floral Lynnae with a solid red Lindsay over it. Pro-tip: throw a Lindsay over anything and knot it over your midsection to hide any flabby-muffin top issue.
The long weekends Lula included 2 pairs of Santa leggings, a white-glitter-sweater Lindsay, a candy cane striped Lula and some florals and paisleys.
And a super special thanks to ZarahZou for the parachute men lula leggings. I paired it with the most perfectest lula-tee. I think it's a Mark. but it could be a Henry. I can't remember, but it's a guys name shirt and it perfectly matches the mauvey-parachute guys.

Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower......
It's Friday. I'm so glad I'm going to have a couple days off to rest and hopefully get rid of this congestion. It's only 7 am and I'm already for a nap. I do get to leave a bit early today which is good since I still have some shopping to do. And I haven't been to Target in over a week! I'm going through withdrawal. I hope they haven't forgotten about me. Usually I'm there 3 times a week. or more.
I need to figure out what to do with my bangs. I want to grow them out, but eyebrows suck. I hate waxing. I hate tweezing. I hate anyone else messing with them. Why are they even necessary?
Today's Lula is a colorful, fun Irma with a brick red Lindsay paired with black pants.

You can see the stars and still not see the light (that's right).....
Thursday....I went to bed last night at 7:00 because I thought some extra sleep would help to ward off the sickness I felt was coming. It didn't work. I woke up super duper sick. Ugh! At least if I get through the next two days, I will have a 4 day weekend to rest and recover. This sucks. I always seem to get sick around holidays and vacations and special events.
Nothing else to say today. Work to get done before the end of the year. Today's Lula is an Irma with jeans. I need to remember that no matter how cute it is, an XL Irma is just too XL. The sizing is so strange. A medium is my preferred Lula Irma size. But at a regular store, I need at least an XL. Why couldn't they size their clothing correctly?? Or size them by letters or numbers or something? Especially since the sizing is not consistent between styles.

I know you'll catch me right before I hit the ground....
Wednesday! The week is almost half over. I had a lot of fun hanging out with ZarahZou last night. I'm so lucky to have her as a friend. She makes me giggle a lot.
I got this fantastic peach lotion in my Ipsy bag a few months back and just finally tried it. I am in love! The smell is fantastic! It's a bit greasy, but the smell more than makes up for that!
Ok, today's Lula. I've had this lace Lindsay for a couple months and could not find anything to really match it. Last night at ZZ's Lula Birthday party, I picked up a solid black Lynnae and the perfect leggings to make this an outfit. I will admit that the leggings are a tad bit bright for work, but they are super fun and the colors are great together.

Come along with me, come on and dance with me.....
Tuesday....Tonight is Sarah's Lula themed birthday party. I'm super excited to hang out and have girl time. And cupcakes! Lula and cupcakes and friends?!?! Pretty much a perfect night!
I'm pretty sure I'm getting sick. Because why wouldn't I be with a holiday coming up? Only me, always me. I see lots of Mucinex in my future.
Today's Lula is a floral patchwork Lynnae and a solid pink Lindsay. With jeans and boots. I love the Lynnae/Lindsay combo. And I didn't have to wear a jacket today since we are having a 38 degree heatwave!

I don't mind the rain 'cause it makes the flowers grow ......
Monday! I had a pretty good weekend. I got to watch 473 hours of Netflix and I got to see the Vikings win! What more could I ask for? I've been watching Heartland on Netflix, and it is such a sweet show. Wholesome is really the only word I can use to describe it. I'm very much enjoying it as a break from drama and murder shows. I'm on season 4, and I hope it never ends.
Today's Lula is a slate blue and dark gray Irma paired with black pants and black suede boots. I got an email that I can wear jeans for the rest of the year, but since I only have 2 pairs of jeans that fit, that just isn't an option. And leggings are so much more comfortable than jeans!
And finally some Lee Greenwood.

I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying, "I love you, " I meant it....
Friday! It's been a rather long week. Trying to get caught up after a few days off is hard!
I got my latest Ipsy shipment yesterday. It came with what sounded like a great product, a coffee body scrub. So I just had to try it out. And yeah, I ended up with coffee grounds in my hair, on the ceiling and up my nose. I was only trying to scrub my legs with it. I'm way too much of a mess for a body scrub product like that. In better news, the bathtub got a nice, caffeinated wash down.
This weekends agenda includes the laundry that I didn't get done this week, some work, and a couple naps.
Today's Lula is a mauvy-colored Lynnae and a denim colored Lindsay with jeans.
And a Christmas song I can tolerate:

She's living the life just like a movie star.....
It's the day before Friday!! Yay!!
So I can't be the only one who hates Christmas music. I can tolerate 2-3 songs in a row. Last night I was subjected to 3 hours worth of someone dreaming of a white Christmas. No!! We don't want a white Christmas because that means snow and 3 hour long commutes! It can still be Christmas without a snowflake in sight! Anyhow, I love music. But just not the holiday-themed music for 3 hours straight. Does that make me a heathen? Maybe. But please no more Silver Bells!
Today's Lula is a Perfect, Leggings and a Lindsay with some fun boots.

Painted faces, fill the places I can't reach....
It's Wednesday. I am so tired. I have so much to do at home, I have at least 700 loads of laundry. I'm almost tempted to throw some of my Lula in the dryer just to get it all done. I'll have to give that some more thought, I don't want to ruin my clothes. But I also don't want drying racks all over the place for 6-8 weeks until I get it all done. These decisions.....
Last night I watched the latest episode of The Walking Dead. ******SPOILER ALERT***** I'm getting kind of bored with it. I really only still watch it for a few reasons. I love Maggie, she is not only a bad ass, but her and Glenn are going to have the most adorable baby. I can't wait for that! I also watch because I'm really concerned about Judith. Someone needs to call CPS! That kid is always MIA and no one seems to be in charge of her care. Who is watching her? And why aren't they teaching her to protect herself? I've also been waiting for someone to punch Crybaby Carl right in the face. And, in a way, I guess that happened. Sorry, Carl. I know you're a kid, but you needed some discipline. If you would have listened to your elders, you would not have taken the ultimate punch to the torso. Although I'm wondering if he's gone or if they are going to find some way around it. I also watch for tips and tricks for fighting zombies. And that has been very lacking. I don't think a single walker got their brains stabbed out last night. How am I supposed to prepare for the real Zombie Apocalypse if I don't have proper training??
Okay, today's Lula is a purply-blue Nicole and a lavender Lindsay. I love Nicole, so comfortable but super dressy. And the super subtle polka dots on the Lindsay- LOVE! You can't even see them inthe photo, but I tried.

'Cause it takes me so long just to figure out what I'm gonna wear....
Back to work. It's only 5 am in Cali, so I should still be sleeping! Only 140 emails, so that's not too bad. I'll get through those in no time! Well, not no time, but only several million hours. And 37 missed calls. Not sure how many voice mails, I'm afraid to check.
I had a fantastic time seeing the Princess. And she was totally surprised that C-H came with since C-H has never been on an airplane and is afraid to fly. I think the Princess needed BFF time more than she needed mom time, so I was happy to share her and just spend the time relaxing and watching them hang out and listening to their giggling. The time went by way too fast. It was sad to leave her, but she seems to be doing well and is happy out there. What more could I ask for?
I didn't take any pictures of my Cali-Lula, but aside from a pair of jeans and a Vikings sweatshirt, that is all I brought with me. So light and easy to pack! Today I am doing a pair of fun, flowery leggings, an Irma and a solid black Lindsay. But I had to take the Lindsay off because it's at least 150 degrees in my office.
And yes, it's a Tuesday.

Heavy thoughts tonight, and they aren't of Snow White....
It's Wednesday!! But it's also my Friday! Back to Cali in less than 24 hours! I so need a vacation! and I'm getting almost nearly close to caught up with my work!
Nothing more today, I need to get several things done so I don't need to do any work for the next 5 days!
Today's Lula - A cream colored Classic with a weird color combination of polka dots - they are forest green and seafoam green. So I paired it with a Lindsay in a 3rd shade of green. Because why not? And jeans because it's my Friday!

Vacations and shopping sprees, these are a few of her favorite things
Tuesday....today I'm going to work on the expense report and commissions and get those all wrapped up so tomorrow I can just do general email and follow up housecleaning so I'll be already for California!! I can't wait to leave the cold and snow!
Last night a brand new pair of my LulaLeggings ripped. I'm rather disappointed, although I have had really good luck. Out of at least 150 pairs, only 3 have ripped or gotten holes. At least these were a free gift pair.
Today's Lula is a solid black Irma from the Noir collection, a solid red sheer Lindsay and leggings that are black with red polka dots. The Lindsay looks coraly in the picture, but it is a true red. I was super excited for the black Irma, but the fabric seems cheaper than my other Irma's. It's way thinner. Oh, well. At least I'm super matchy-matchy.

I've sailed a thousand ships.....
It's Monday.....I may be still slightly hungover from our post-funeral trip to the bar on Friday. I usually don't like Bloody Mary's unless I make them myself and they are 1/2 pickle juice. But Becky ordered one and it was too spicy for her, so I drank it. And it was very good. Then I had several peachy drinks and a Jag bomb. It was horrible, but it was very nice to unwind, and I haven't seen Becky in forever.
The funeral was beautiful and sad. LC was so wonderful. And when she was younger, she looked a lot like Audrey Hepburn. It was a great tribute to her. I will miss her so much.
And then there is 10-2. That could be why my stomach hurts. The anticipation of how this season is going to play out. Being a Vikings fan is so tragically painful to the point where we are so accustomed to things going wrong that it is hard to accept when we are winning. But no matter what, this has been an amazing season.
I colored my hair last night and I went a little too red. I'm not very happy with it, but I guess I'm stuck. At least I got a $5 Target gift card for buying 2 boxes of the dye.
And finally, today's Lula is solid Navy Lynnae, a cream Lindsay, and a pair of fun leggings.
