 No repeats in this collage. Yay.

8/23

 I rarely wear these shorts. I need to be braver and wear them more.

8/24, 8/27/ 8/28, 8/30, 8/31

It looks like I wore the same top 2 days in a row but really I am missing a day of my daily picture. 4 different shorts out of 5 pictures. Not bad.

July 1-15 Outfits

 I did wear other clothes on the 12th but no pictures. I left the house many times but no pictures.

7/13

I took these on my iphone. They don't look that good but at least you can sort of see what I'm wearing.

7/15

I took the one on the let and Dave took the one on the right. Ella picked out my shirt.
I keep getting bummed that I do not take daily pictures. I'm slacking off after 10 years of this! I miss my calendar site so so so so bad.

I woke up before 8. I kept going back to sleep because 8 is entirely too early for me.  Finally at 8, I woke up. I stayed in bed a bit. Then at 9, I went running. Dave was still sleeping. He only woke up 5 minutes before I got back.

I showered and got ready to leave.  We went to JCP for Dave to get some clothes. We spent forever shopping. We only shopped for Dave and only went to 1 store. He got new jeans, 2 shorts, 6 t-shirts, and 1 polo shirt.

Then we went to the Melt for lunch. I wasn't a huge fan. I can make things just as good or better at home. We went to Sprinkles after. I got 2 cupcakes and liked 1 a lot more than the other. Banana was really good. I'm not a huge fan of the vanilla with chocolate icing. Dave said his strawberry didn't taste like strawberries at all .

After we got home, we started watching Dexter. We watched for a few hours. I did laundry at the same time. Dave went and got Boudin's for dinner.  We watched more Dexter.  We took a quick break so Dave could play his video game but I Just wanted to keep watching straight through.

10.2

I started the day watching Psych.  I watched a few but since there is no plot going between episodes I didn't think I wanted to be watching it all day.

I started watching New Girl Season 1 so that I could start with season 2 since we record it.

I went to the gym and read while using the elliptical. I didn't have a lot of time so I only did 20 minutes. That 20 minutes was pretty tiring.  I'm also not used to reading while working out.

I went to Google for dinner.  It wasn't as good as it has been in the past.

Dave and I watched TV when we got home. Then he went to sleep and I watched more TV. I eventually fell asleep on the couch sitting up.

Shirt: Sam's Club, Belt: Target, Jeans: F21, Shoes: Famous Footwear
I wore my skinny jeans for the first time in a long time. It was so hot I went with a sleeveless shirt. I was surprised when I got to Google and people had on coats. I think heels are better with skinny jeans on me but I didn't know how much walking Dave would have me do so I went with flats.

I've worn this outfit before but liked it and thought it was nice for a picnic.
Shirt: Sam's Club, Shorts: American Eagle Outfitters, Sandals: Kohl's, Necklace: Charlotte Russe, Earrings: Target, Sunglasses: found

I woke up and meant to run right away. I finally ran 2.5 hours later. I ran so late I was almost late to the picnic at Google.  After my run, it was entirely too hot so I plugged in Dave's fan that used to be in his cube.

The picnic was pretty impressive.  I got so tired standing in the sun.   We only stayed a few hours. I got full. I met a few of Dave's coworkers but not many.  They had a ton of food. They had beer and wine. There were also a lot of bouncy house type things.  There was also Gladiator Jousting. That was pretty funny to watch.  I forgot to take pictures of all the food I ate and still got a lot of pictures of my food. I like carnival food. I wish I had a ponytail holder with me because partially eating my hair slowed my eating down even more than normal.

After we got home, I napped for 3 hours.  Dave knows me so well that after he woke up, he took some pictures of me napping.  I don't know why I like it so much but often times after I wake up I ask him why he didn't take my picture.  Poly napped with me.  She was so cute.  She was like a furnace though so halfway through my nap, I had to cover my leg.

Then we watched TV. Finally at 9pm I ate dinner. I watched more TV.  Poly decided the best place to sleep was behind me when I was partially leaned forward.

Once Dave went to sleep, I used my computer and did some things on my to-do list.

I used to like this shirt but now the ruffles make me feel fatter than I am. I could gain 15 lbs and still fit underneath it.  Actually I think I liked the shirt back when I was heavier and none of my other clothes were fitting.  These shorts are so old. I found them. They fit. I wore them. They are an older style with the pockets on the outside but I can't wear my other pair of blue jean shorts all the time so I forced myself to wear these old ones. Plus the shirt is so long you can't tell much of anything.

I woke up and wasted so much time it was hot out. I wanted to run but it was too hot. I wanted to shower but not until after I ran. After awhile I realized that wasn't going to work.  I really didn't waste time in the morning. I made phone calls. I talked to Garmin customer support to get my watch working again.

I ended up going to JCP to return some things for Dave then to Target to return some things there. I did shop around a bit in both stores but didn't buy anything.

I went to the apartment complex pool. I also read a little.  Neither of these things were on my to-do list.

I cooked dinner!

Since I didn't run during the day, I went for a quick run in the evening.  It was so pleasant. The sun wasn't out. The temperature was warmer than I had been running but without the sun it felt chilly.   Before and after the run, I watched TV with Dave.

I did a lot of work around the apartment while Dave spent time doing stuff at his computer.  I was ready for lunch at 11 and when Dave is ready we go, but Dave wasn't ready so we didn't head out until 1pm!

We stopped at Goodwill to donate 3 old computers then we went to lunch. (I had on the 5" heels shown above while carrying these 2 computers.)

We went to BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse. It was right near Apple Headquarters.  Their meatball appetizer was amazing. I don't remember if I read the entire description on the menu or not but it was not at all what I expected.  I was thinking there would be red sauce.  The deep dish pizza was awesome too. There were so many toppings.  Dave and I shared the the deep dish pizza. We also shared a turkey club. The turkey club was very blah so I wasn't a huge fan. I also had turkey for lunch 3 days in a row at home so I bet I should have remembered that and avoided ordering turkey.

I did a lot more work in the kitchen but seem to have made a bigger mess.  I was worried about not having storage in the kitchen so I've been putting stuff in boxes for storage and now I do have some extra room. Granted we barely have any food in the house now so I think it is good to have empty spots.  I will need a step stool to get many things but at least I found places.

We headed out to dinner.  We were going to go to Baja Fresh but we walked out the back way right near Trader Joe's and saw Five Guys right there so we ate there.  They messed up Dave's burger by only giving him one patty instead of two.  We ate outside because Dave said it was too noisy in the restaurant. Well outside it was freezing and the longer we were out there the worse it felt.  I even had on jeans and a hoodie.   We hit up Trader Joe's on the way home to see what they have and to buy some sort of dessert.

We got home and watched Big Brother and then Rachel Maddow.  We watched the second show because Poly was so cute and restful beside me and I wanted to give her some more time to rest.  Dave fell asleep during Rachel.  After it was over, he went into bed and I went to my computer and started applying for some jobs.

I've been making public albums on my picasa with more photos than on here so if you want to monitor my unpacking just be sure to check it out.

I was going to wake up to run with a running group but I did the math and wouldn't make it to my parents on time. I thought I could run on my own and still run and just not have the 40 min drive each way to the running group. Well I didn't run at all.

Then I was going to mow. I started to mow but after I fell twice and hit my face off the mower handle I quit. 

We went to my parents for lunch. We ordered pizza and went to a park to eat. The rain made it so we were almost the only people in the park. 

After that we hung out.  We went to Kerber's. Then my family came to my house to load the rest of Timmy's junk to take to my parents.  That took awhile. We didn't get to talk as much. 

My parents left at 7:30 then I sat there wanting to be productive. I went up to my room to clean but just used my computer. I wanted Dave and I to be productive together but he was not having any parts of it so then it made me not want to be productive. 

He came up to my room and sat there so I could work and talk to him. I like doing that. I work way better with someone around. But then he turned on Starcarft and I couldn't actually talk to him. 

I got bored with working and sat there and just stared. I wanted to take breaks to check my email but couldn't. Some book shelves are organized but the surface of my desk is really messy though.

At 10:30 we called it quits so I could check my email and then go to sleep.
