1.) Things are going well with the house(s). We move into the new one at the end of June.
2.) We got a contract on our current home after 6 days on the market (the second showing), which I find just insane!!! The home inspection was last week and we are still ironing out some of the details about what we are agreeing to fix. I can only hope that things continue to move along and we can close, without incident, as scheduled on June 30th. Nothing is a done deal until then - especially in this market...
3.) I failed to officially update everyone on the status of Josh's Biggest Loser contest. He was the official winner (and recipient of $500) with 27 pounds lost. He sure did work hard for it :). We (Josh said $250 of the money was "mine" for being such a good coach - lol) didn't do anything too special with it. That is, other than enjoy our St. Maarten vacation to the fullest.
4.) Happily, we are both maintaining our weight loss and feeling better than ever.
5.) I finally gave in and joined the Facebook bandwagon. I never thought it would happen...
6.) Because my husband works in the beauty business, and someone with OPI recently stumbled upon my blog, I got the most kick ass care package from the fabulous folks at OPI. It includes the entire Colorcopia collection and the brand new collection inspired by Paige Premium Denim.
As a result of my good fortune, I'm thinking of doing a giveaway. A first for this blogger. Thoughts?7.) My baby sister turns 21 on Thursday, which brings with it the reality of how old I am getting - lol.
8.) I am so pumped for The Biggest Loser finale on Tuesday. I think I'm rooting for Tara to go home with it. Although, it would be awesome to see someone like Kristin go home with the Biggest Loser at Home title and money. We shall see...
Happy Monday everyone!

Wow! You have the best luck! That's neat that someone from OPI stumbled on your blog! I think a giveaway is a great idea ;-)
I love OPI, except I can't manage to make it dry at home!
I think it'd be awesome to see someone from home take the Biggest Loser title! I love the African American woman who's getting married...she came back a few episodes ago and got voted off right away.
Oh please do a giveaway! That is so amazing that they sent you the OPI polishes. I am going to start writing all about it on my blog too. :) Little did they know, you are the last person that needs it! How cool!!!
I want Tarah to win! Can't wait!
ooooh, pretty polish. what great luck you have!
I'll be thinking of you guys during the house process - I'm sure everything will continue to move smoothly. And I'm all for a giveaway. ;)
Congrats on the house stuff - I'll keep my fingers crossed that the sale completes smoothly. What a blessing in this market!
I wish I worked in an office that A) was big enough to do a Biggest Loser thing and B) had people who actually needed to lose weight to validate doing a Biggest Loser thing. Skinny jerks. :) Good job, Josh!!! Way to go, coach. Just knowing how much you've helped me shows how much you deserved your half of the winnings.
I absolutely love some of those colors!
wow, incredible that your house went under contact so fast! i really hope the rest plays out flawlessly...
and how fun to get so many new nail polishes, especially when you're not expecting it! you truly are an OPI expert :)
Congrats on the house(s); that is so exciting! My fingers are crossed for you for it to all continue smoothly.
How cool that OPI contacted you, and sent you all that polish!!!! Lucky girl! I definitely think you should pass on the wealth with a giveaway! :)
I am so in love with those Paige Premium Denim colors, I saw them at the nail salon and fell in love immediately.
Kristen was my favorite, now I don't care who wins. I'm not that into Mike and Ron winning though :)
That is awesome news about your house! It give me so much hope that things are actually selling for when we actually put our condo on the market. I will keep my fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly.
Yay for the house! I hope it continues to go smoothly. Those OPI shades are really nice, though I guess that is like saying the Pope is Catholic. :)
Hello Ladies, I am as you can see the OPI person:)
I am not a blogger but wanted to answer a couple of question... Tattooed Dorothy, try less lacquer in your application thin layers, also we make s product called dripdry that will dry your nails in 90 seconds:)
And I love this because I too LOVE High Heels, Sweatshirts and OPI!!!
As for the Bright Pair... I love the fit of the Paige jeans they FIT so well....
Thanks to all of you for YOUR love of OPI Nail Color... just wait till you see the colors that come out in August and the Holiday colors BEAUTIFUL
