I'm Lazeeeeeee!

For the past two days, I have done absolutle nothing. Today, I woke up, took a shower washed my face and brushed my teeth. It was raining so Sam and I didn't go for a walk but even after it cleared up later, we still didn't go out. I let him "go" in the backyard and I sat in front of the computer all day looking at You Tube and playing on eBay. Lost the vintage swing coat :( But, got a great set of vintage napkins, a GREAT vintage tea set yay! And some tea themed cookie cutters. Other than that, I did absolutely nothing, didn't clean, didn't wash a load of clothes, I didn't even style my hair. I put on a house dress and that was about it.

This weekend, I ran hard. On Saturday, I was all over the city, walking, shopping, dropping by street fairs. I went with my cousin to a party. On Sunday, I took Sam to a puppy play date, where he had a ball barking at and chasing other dogs then afterward, I went to an outdoor swing concert though I didn't dance with anyone because I had Sam. So, I guess I'm exhausted from my weekend but more than likely, I'm just lazy, with a capital L.

I'm giving a formal tea in two weeks, hence me buying a tea set and vintage napkins. I want it to be a really nice event as it is the first one I am giving. I wanted to do a pink and white theme but, the tea set that I got, a complete set from the '50s, service for 12! is blue so, that kind of changes things. The good thing: my dessert plates have blue in them. The bad thing: I already bought a table cloth so, I'll be taking that back in search of a more appropriate color. I went to a chocolatier and she is making chocolate covered oreos for me which will bear the name of each of my guests, she is also making chocolate tea pots which hold inside of them, chocolate tea cups and a chocolate tea bag. The teapot/cup combination is decorated so it looks just like a teapot, you wouldn't know it was chocolate unless someone told. Very cute. I also bought some tea themed cookie cutters which I will be using to make sugar cookies and make tea sandwiches and, I'm going to make a teapot shaped cake. Very cool. I'll post pictures of the event afterwards.

School starts again soon. :( I've been having a very good time not working, I really don't want to go back.

In addition to being lazy these past two days, I've been greedy too.

Yesterday, I ate fruit all day then for dinner, I ordered some chinese food and slumped over to THO's house where I ate an ice cream cone. Then today, in a bid to make up for yesterday I ate fruit and veggies for breakfast lunch and dinner (and a small piece of chicken) but just ate a bunch of cookies that I found in the back of my closet (yes, I was searching for snacks), not cool.

I started some light waist training today. Waist Training Info I bought a corset a while ago but, I didn't really want to do it. I'm not looking to do any extreme waist modification. I'm a big girl, I know this so I'm hoping to get six inches off of my waist in the next few months, nothing too big. I thought wearing the corset would be uncomfortable but, other than sitting really straight, nothing out of the ordinary. Actually, when I took it off for the night, I kind of wanted to put it back on. I did 3 hours today, tomorrow I'll do three and a half or four. I'm very sleepy and I have letters to write to my penpals send off tomorrow.
