Land of the Giants

I went to Nordstrom with Stephanie at lunch and oh my but what a lot of lovely things.  The shoes!!!  Oh, to finally meet Jimmy Choo and Milano Blahnik in person - a dream come true.  Of course, I was sad to leave without any of these gorgeous shoes but when I win the lottery.....

The dresses were quite lovely too.  Apparently though a lot of women who shop there are giants.  This is a skirt.  I could use it as a tent.  Add a touque (going with the winter theme today) and I'd be the most stylish of campers.

Yes, I do own these beauties. Wednesday...half way to the weekend but so many hours left to go.Can cross cardio off today's list - I ran for the bus. So much has happened since my last blog. Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries and now it is almost Christmas.Are you ready?I'm getting there…slowly.
The fam is going to Montreal on Saturday so I am working on my to-do list which will start after our buds Charlie and Eddie finish up their sleepover at our place.We are looking forward to doing something Christmassy with them before they head home…better put on my creative hat soon. After that I am off for a pedicure compliments of Jaan - as my feet bask in the bubbles I am going to bestow the warmest thoughts on you Jaan. Maybe I’ll put the Christmas tree up (well, into the tree stand. I love the smell of real trees. Then we can spend the week putting on the lights and decorations.


I have a story.Grab yourself a coffee/tea, a cookie, a banana or just put your feet up for a few minutes an…

It is Long Weekend Eve

Image
If these shoes don't scream "BRING ON THE WEEKEND" I don't know what does.  Wish I had a pair :)


Happy Long Weekend Eve Folks.
I have long weekend fever….do you?

It was such a nice, sweaty ride in this morning.Much quieter as a lot of people have taken the day off…they are so lucky.I too will take a day off one of these days.





The word of the weekend will be “Swamp Ass” when it comes to the weather.  Go out and play but also take time inside some air conditioning (the museums are free on Monday) and stay hydrated (which does not mean more beer).



Enjoy the weekend, take pictures, share your stories.

Sing it! Sing it out loud!

My day started with me walking out the front door directly into a cobweb.  Ick.


I had a lovely ride into work although maybe mitts might be in order for the early morning rides. 



I wish I had time to vary my route so that I could see more spectacular views of Ottawa but Farrhaven is just too far from downtown to add any miles to my ride.

I got to the parking garage, got off my bike and promptly started walking into the wooden bar that lifts when cars go through.  Unfortunately there were many beings in the garage and could hear the security guard yell "STOP"!!!  Ooops.


I'm sorry Ryan.  I know, bad enough that I do it but then I blog about it.
I got the last laugh though..or maybe the first.  I'm pretty sure that everyone heard me laugh when I opened an email from our IT department this morning.

I haven't decided what I'm going to sing yet but am open to suggestions.

I wonder if the person who sent out the email is having a 'Ryan' moment too.

Enjoy th…
