Well, since dh probably won't agree to the lc cruise .....

I think you all are right! I need new underthings! I wouldn't dare call what I have lingerie! And as a matter of fact....my underwear don't work with the new lower rise jeans that I bought! They come up above the waist if I'm not careful. <Far> from sexy....

And this will be a fun thing to do as WereBear suggested! I thought a lot about that post. Not so much the no cost thing....but just doing something fun - something fun and <totally> out of character for me. A new kitchen gadget would not be very fun to shop for. Or nearly as fun to actually use! And buying sexy underthings will be fun and out of character for me. I've always tended toward functional, no frills, cotton, boring. (My poor dh.)

So it's settled! And I'm excited! Too bad I won't have time to go shop until the 1st. However, I do have 3 pair of sexy panties that I bought the last time I got to goal. For some reason I never wore them much. I'm going to dig them out from the bottom of my drawer and start using them!

And, yes, Michelle, I had already decided that I needed a new photo. I need an after and a new avatar. <sigh> I am just so NOT photogenic! HEY!!!!! I just thought of something!!! I have two friends that are GREAT photographers and have nice cameras and know how to edit and all that. They do each others' family photos every year! I bet one of them would help me do some nice photos!

I may even go ahead and get a manicure for the photos too!

Now I am <really> <super> excited!!!! Thanks everyone!

That's what I did .... you can see one of them at the start of my latest journal, along with my current avatar.
