Its a funny story really...

A couple of weeks ago Old Navy was having a fabulous sale! All clearance was %50 off PLUS I had a coupon for an extra %30 off.

So I headed out in search of almost FREE (well sort off if you do the math, the items were already marked down %50 plus MY EXTRA %80 off) items.

I am usually not a HUGE fan of Old Navy but for the clearance and quality there is just no where else to get deals like that.

So I made a "few" purchases and paid $23 for 3 pairs of pants, 6 sweaters and 7 shirts. WOW what a steal! The pants were all $3.20 FOR CARGO PANTS! And they are so comfy!

I immediately wash the black ones to wear and I LOVE them. I also love that I got them in 3 colors.

Well yesterday I was feeling under the weather. I slept late, was dragging and I swear I am fighting something that wants to make me sick (I also think it may be stress)

Anyways I head out to the post office which is a block from the house and throw on a pair of my new comfy pants.

I run a few errands and come home to cook dinner.

After dinner I use the rest room and I notice I HAVE HUGE BRUISES ALL OVER MY LEGS!! I run out of the bathroom with my pants around my ankles to show the hubby.

We are both SUPER concerned, he is telling me I need to go to the hospital and I am FREAKING out because WHAT IS THIS!! We thought all the bruising was from the massage the hubby gave me the night before....

Then I start to laugh....

Yeah the pants I "threw on" had not been washed.. And the grey dye transferred onto my skin! It was SO GROSS/Scary I will never do that again (wear something before its washed) I am usually VERY weird about stuff like that because of all the stuff I read like this and this.

And I would have taken a pictures but it was UGLY.. But the good news is I do not have to go to the hospital! lol

What getting old looks like..

So umm yeah.

I got dinner ready, put it in the oven and then proceeded to leave the house to take the dog to the dog park. Made a stop at a friends... was gone for about 1 1/2 hours.

And TOTALLY forgot I had put dinner in the over....

Oh yeah.

In my defense at least I had the dog with me so if the house was to burn down all the loved ones would be safe?

It's pretty bad when you have to bribe yourself!

So I am a procrastinator... A huge procrastinator about going to the gym and I have been telling myself all week that "I am going to go back"

So umm yeah a week later I still have not gone. So tonight I bribed myself.

If I did not go to the gym, I could not watch The Hills.

I made it to the gym. lol

So my next bribe to myself is if I make it 7 days this week it will be December 1st.

December 1st is the day I can buy shoes.

If I go 7 days. I GET TO PICK A PAIR OF SHOES to buy!!!

And that is how it is going to work. 7 days at the gym = NEW SHOES!!

How cool is that. Get in shape AND control my shoe shopping? So my goal is to lose 40 pounds by May. May is when I go home to Canada again. And that will put me back at my weight before I broke my neck. So you will see a ticker on my side bar of how far I have to go.. Uggg

I can do this!
