Whatcha Eating VSGers? Saturday September 1, 2018
Happy Labor Day weekend in the US! It is the unofficial "end of summer" in tourist areas like Cape Cod. It will be busy this weekend, but we leave for the airport just after lunch (flight to Scotland at 5:30 pm). We are essentially packed - now I'm worrying about whether I forgot anything... I don't know when I'll be posting - maybe daily, maybe not at all. But I'll be back in a couple of weeks regardless.
QOTD: What is your favorite item you've bought this year? I love to shop so I had to think hard about this! If I can count the fee we paid to the shelter, it would have to be Justice, but that seems more like an adoption fee not a purchase. Another good purchase was the cost to the contractor to paint, add molding, etc. in Florida. But if it must be a "thing", it would either be my Michael Kors watch or a Lilly Pulitzer dress I bought at less than 1/2 price in like new condition from an online consignment shop.

Have a wonderful trip and bring back memories - always my favorite way to spend money! They last long past the things I own.... :)
Bad food day. Blood sugar is crazy, so just small bites trying to keep things in balance. 56 is a dangerous sugar level.

Liz, I'm sure there are stores where you're going, if you forgot anything! LOL!
Have a fabulous time! Don't worry about checking in here, just have fun!

I LOVE those! They look really comfortable. (And I love your pupper too! He looks like he's having a pretty good snooze in the sun!) I don't know if I could wear these though because I have an extremely high instep. Most shoes that go up that far are intolerable for me. :( But those look rather promising...are they snug? Can you loosen them?
This outfit came today (I've been shopping too much again! LOL)
I'm kind of shocked...I'm so used to wearing baggy sweats and oversize shirts...you know, hiding the fat as if anyone would assume there's no fat under all that fabric. Ha.
I don't think I'm ready to wear this in public, but my mouth in the picture says it all. HAHA!
Even better, I'm not going to wear out the inner thighs of my pants first thing anymore! I can't tell you how many pairs of jeans (like new!) I've tossed because I totally wore them out (holes!) in the inner thighs.
