Happy Halloween

Hubby and I threw this together..I think it's pretty good
The shirt in my costume is an XL and I feel like I'm swimming in it.  It's so long and baggy...which is awesome.  I remember when I went into XXL shirts and they were still a little tight.  I always said one of the first things I'd do when I lost weight was buy a sexy Halloween costume.  Obviously, this ain't it but sexy wouldn't be appropriate for work anyway.  Overall, I'm pretty happy with my zombie look.

I hope all the bloggers affected by Hurricane Sandy are relatively unscathed.  We had a full blown emergency deal at work associated with it yesterday so my workday started with a call at 4:45 and it was nonstop.  I know I've been pretty absent from blogging lately and I'm working on rectifying that.  I even have a post inspired by another one of my fitness instructors but that's going to have to wait for another day.

Tonight, we've got trick or treating with the girls which is always fun.  Hubby and I are leaving for Atlanta tonight for his brother's wedding.  The girls are staying with my parents.  I've packed nothing.  Ugh.  I'm wearing a blue dress that I wore to the last wedding I attended and I had bought a cute pair of silver shoes to go with it.  I wore said shoes to that wedding and now I am one shoe short of a pair.  So I get to go out tonight and try to find a replacement pair.  And yes, I'm going right after work looking like the above picture.  It's gonna be awesome.  Really ticks me off about the shoe though.  So it's work, shoe store, pack for me, pack for the girls, trick or treating with friends, home, bath, to my parents house and off to the airport.  Yikes!  Hope we get all that done with time to spare.  :)

OK...off to catch up on work so things don't blow up while out of the office.

As soon as you buy a new pair of shoes, you'll find the other silver one! LOL! Good luck and safe travels!

Love the costume! I love putting on clothes that used to be tight and now I'm swimming in them. Such a great feeling!

Busy, Busy. You should make a goal to do sexy Halloween next year and find an adult party to wear it to!!

Panda ... how did you loose one shoe? or is this just a "I can't find it so I get to buy another pair" scenario that I used to pull on my ex.

Have a brilliant time at the wedding. xx
