What a day!

Oct 18, 2014

Yesterday was a BIG DAY!

After feeling very intimidated by it, I finally tried a Spin class. WOW! I don't think I've ever sweated so much - and it was the BEGINNER class! But I loved it. I actually loved the feeling of working hard and sweating, but, damn, my booty is SWORE today.

It was also my library's annual gala fundraiser (more like cocktail party that has dinner, but don't get me started on that one). It felt like my debut, lol. It was the first time I got really dressed up as my new, skinnier, healthier self and showed it off! I had a gorgeous cocktail dress, new make up, a rockin' mani, and a new air of confidence. I run the event, so I saw everyone at the door, checking them in, and then made announcements and a short speech (introducing an awardee) during the night.I can't tell you how many people made comments, asked me how I did it, etc. It felt good, but also overwhelming at times. Some of them I shared the full story, most I just said thank you and tried to move on quickly. 

(the dress looks weirdly long in this picture LOL, it was actually just below the knees, wish I had hemmed it, but didn't decide that until like 2pm yesterday...)
