Locksmith Locator

We're getting all the locks at the new house replaced and having keyless deadbolts installed. The landlord didn't know he had to do this under TX law, so we're having it done and taking it out of the rent. I had no idea locks were so expensive. I'm glad I'm not having to pay for this!

What I Wore While Hiring a Locksmith:

• black dress (Gap)
• pink skirt (via Goodwill)
• black patterned tights (Target)
• black suede wedges (Rampage, if memory serves)
• pale pink cardi with black beading (via JC Penny - this thing was on $4 on mega sale)
• black belt (came with some clothing item)
• black ribbon/pearl necklace (Target)
• black earings (?? via Ross??)

Yes, it's the same black dress again. There seem to be multiple people wearing black dresses over and over. Kimberly has a go-to dress she often wears on Mondays. And Danielle wears the same black dress every Monday. Hey! I wore this on Monday. Maybe I need to always wear it on Mondays so I can be cool like those ladies?!?!? Today I decided to follow Audi's lead and elongate the look with a skirt thrown under it. It's a little fussy for the office, but I really love the look.

What I Ate Out of the Freezer:

I'm eating whatever is left in the house so we don't have to move it, so expect to see some weird things on my dinner plate. One thing that isn't a leftover is this candied ginger that I had for a snack. I picked it up at Trader Joes when I was in NY. (Okay, why isn't there a Trader Joe's in Dallas?? Seriously, we are a HUGE city. Hey! Trader Joe's Corporate! I'm talking to you. Put a store in DFW already!!! Sheesh!) Anyway, I have to rave about this stuff. It's not crystalizes so it's not as sugary. In fact, it's really spicy. I love it. It's much better than the chocolate covered edamame that I also bought.

• breakfast: peanut butter Clif bar
• lunch: 1/2 california club, cup of potato soup, cup of fruit (Jason's Deli)
• snack: candied ginger (Trader Joes)
• dinner: pasta w/ meat sauce and a serious lack of veggies

Exercise:

Does lugging boxes from house to house count? My arms are sore, so it should!
