Feeling *slightly* more upbeat today. D and I had a delicious and delightful birthday dinner, and the restaurant truly was romantic and lovely. This weekend is a long weekend in the UK. We haven't planned anything, but maybe we'll go away on a road trip for a couple of days. Something different would be nice!
I haven't made it to the gym for the past couple of days and am really itching to get some exercise in. Today at lunch, I'm going down there! Even if it's only twenty minutes or half an hour, I know it will do me some good and clear my head. And if the weather is decent on Saturday, hopefully D and I can play some tennis.
Oh! And I had a very nice moment this morning. I'm wearing this new dress I picked up on sale a boutique here. It's a heavy cotton knit, sort of mustard colored up to the waist with mustard and black stripes at the top. I'm wearing it with low heels and black opaque tights. Our elevators are mirrored, and it can occasionally be a long ride to the 22nd floor. I caught a glimpse of myself out of the corner of my eye and thought, damn, my legs look skinny!
That was nice.

Glad...
...you are feeling better. The dress sounds lovely.
THANKYOU...working at home, I forget about things like Bank Holidays. I still take them off work, because my hubby is at home, but I don't usually realise until they are upon me.
I love your new background. I didn't notice it the last time I was here so either I have been really out of it or it's new. Sometimes that alone makes me feel more cheerful! I hope that you're feeling better about the move situation. It's a big decision to move in with someone else and even more so to move into THEIR place. It still feels like their place, even if you're there. Remember you don't have to make a decision really quickly. It sounds like your landlord is desperate enough to give you the time to weigh out what you really want. Hope you keep feeling better and better and I'm sure the gym will help!
A long weekend sounds lovely....we have one next week to look forward to. I hope you and D can get away this weekend. A change of scenery does everyone good now and then! Ooooh....skinny legs.....gotta love it!
