Palin sells the Naughty Monkeys

Doesn’t that sound dirty?  I was not a big Palin fan during the presidential campaign…but her style always amused me (in a good way).   Now that the infamously expensive VP candidate wardrobe has been ditched for comfier Alaskan duds it would seem the clan of Gov. Palin is cashing in on her celebrity status.   Earlier this week a pair of her Naughty Monkey shoes hit eBay.   The winning bid…$2025!!!!!   Naughty Monkey shoes are normally between $60-$170…so that means this winning bidder felt that Palin’s conservative foot sweat was worth about $1800.   People never cease to amaze me.

 

 

While I love a fabulous pair of heels, I also adore PUMAS!   I have a love affair with them.    Working out in them, lounging in them, walking in them, or just looking at them…I found my new faves last week…j’adore!

I can’t believe I’ve almost let a month go without attending to this lovely little blog.  I don’t want to see this one wither like all the others, just busy with work, busy with life…and thinking.   Lots and lots of thinking. 

Au revoir 2008

Ahh New Year’s Eve…I used to love NYE, but over the last 9 or 10 years they’ve been pretty underwhelming and at times absolutely awful.   This year is a big fat ehhhhhhhh.   Ehhhh must by a constant theme as it was very much the feeling for me for 2008.  I have a lot of stuff I just need to let go of.   We’ll see how it goes.

On a positive note I feel I’ve prepared well for 2009.   I have decided that I want to lose at least 15 pounds this year.  Usually when I give myself the fifteen pound challenge I have a big event coming up that I need to look fabulous for and I give myself a completely unrealistic time frame (oh say three days).   I purchased a new scale today (my old one was analong and was fidgety) a new yoga mat, weights and this really cool balance thingy.   I feel like I’m prepped to take on my eating issues….I say that as I’m cooking a CPK pizza…hey I’m saying goodbye to the bad eating habits, I still have an hour and a half left!

I hope 2009 is great for you, Happy New Year!
