True confessions of a workaholic

At the end of this post though you may be thinking I really meant True Confessions of Shopaholic. :)

Last week I didn't make it home before 8:30 one night except Friday! My big events are Thursday and Friday of this coming week and I've been running around at work (literally) trying to make sure I get everything I need done before I leave for Charlotte on Tuesday morning at 5:45 AM (yes, again, laugh if you will). I would have blogged more this week, but honestly, when you've been looking at a computer for almost 12 hours straight, the last thing you want to do when you get home is turn the computer on. And the forecast for this weeks blogging isn't that good either, because the laptop I'll be taking is not my own, and it isn't equipped with internet. Who knows, maybe I'll try that text/blogging Amber told me about?! We'll see.

Believe it or not, 1 of the things on my to do list before I leave was shopping! I was in great need of a warmer temperature suit. I was very worried I wouldn't have any success, but look:

Success!! I found not one, but TWO suits, a 70% off CK dress that works with my suit jacket, a pair of jeans (much needed since I discover my flat shoes jeans are very unflattering from the bowling post), and my ...3rd pair of leopard print shoes (these are flats though! and they go with my suit!)

It was quite a successful day at the Leesburg Corner Outlets. That area of VA is absolutely beautiful and a refreshing break from the city terrain. However, you do have to pay for the greenery, as it cost me $10.30 in tolls, and that doesn't include the gas for the 70 mile roundtrip. Craziness!

At least I picked up a pack of the cheap cookies I've been craving for the trip.

Yummmmmm. Not a healthy lunch, but oh so tasty! :)
