Get outta that NEGATIVITY and let's do something POSITIVE..

Let's plan for FEBRUARY as being GODDESS MONTH...

This is CHAI LOVER's IDEA of THEME MONTHS for ladies in PLAN B..talked about on SKINSGAL'S THREAD..

What's up first?

Shall it be the PEDICURES?

DAH.LINGS...

Do you have your MASCARA and LIPSTICK on for today?

What about the OTHER GODDESS ESSENTIALS?

What's your guess about what THOSE are?

Now Mimi, you know I don't even get out of bed without mascara and lipgloss. LOL

Thanks for pulling me off of that other thread, my head was starting to hurt.

What do you do for your workout?

Lets have exercise be the theme for the first month, okay? Unless of course you have your heart set on pedicures.

Take my name off of the title and more will show up. Maybe "calling all goddesses" will get them to join in.

OK, here's what I propose:

Week 1 - a new Goddess outfit of your choice. Sexy? Trendy? Sporty? You decide, but you must look like a knockout in it. NO spandex or sweats allowed.

Week 2 - New do. New cut, color and highlight. This MUST be a new cut too - not just a variation on what you've always had.

Week 3 - Manicure/Pedicure or both. Facial and massage optional

Week 4 - New makeup. At least new blush and eye shadow in updated colors.

Last week, put it all together and invite a friend to go out for dinner with you. See how everyone looks up when you walk in the restaurant.

Sounds great y'all!

How about adding trying out new things in the kitchen, too? Something you always wanted to try but never made the time for it or were just a little too intimidated?

That could be for another month or something. Maybe?

I don't have any make-up on yet but I need to shower and go get supplies so I WON'T walk out of here with a bare face!

Sounds like a lot of fun. I'm in.

I need a new suit, but I will try to make it a very pretty suit, but I'm sorry, it can't be sexy.

On the new doo....oh boy, that will be hard for me. I can do a cut/color...but new, oh boy.

I love cooking, so the kitchen will be fun, too!

When I get some time I am going to tell you all about the house we are trying to buy down south. You are just not going to believe our good luck in finding it...nothing fancy, but character up the ying yang.

Good idea Charlotte - March could be Cuisine Month where we try a new recipe every week. I like it. I know that the crock pot isn't exactly gourmet cuisine, but there are a couple of new recipes that I would like to try.

Now Josie, why can't you be sexy or get a new haircut? Step outside the box girl. Of course you can get a new cut. If you don't like it, give it a month or two to grow back.

BTW, do any of you have an Aero Garden? Been wanting one but would like to hear about it from someone who has tried it.

Thanks Chai!

Yeah, it would be fun!! And I can finally get that recipe posted that believer asked for ages ago! LOL! I haven't forgotten!

I've seen the ads for the aero garden. Looks great.

Made me think about Back to the Future II...LOL!

Just needs to be bigger and suspended in the ceiling!

Now Josie, why can't you be sexy or get a new haircut?


Because my husband likes long hair. I have been wanting to maybe try shoulder length, though. I think shoulder length can be very refined, as well as sexy.

On the suit, it's funny, because I once told Mimi we are opposite sides of the same coin. She was becomming sexier and wilder, and I was trying to become more refined and polished. LOL

I need a new suit for job purposes and can not spend any money for fun clothes right now anyway.

But it's all about changing it up, you are right, no matter which direction that takes you.

You Rang???

Well, I got outta bed today and did a little walk up the driveway this afternoon. That's major progress for moi!

Hmmm, I made an effort to do up the new do this morning, too, just because. Put on a little rouge and some lipgloss, and cleaned up my brows. Now, I look real pretty sitting up in bed.

I also ordered an egyptian cotton 1000 thread count duvet for my bed. It's light blue, with subtle stripes, to compliment all the brown in my room.

I'll let you know when I start cooking.

ohhhh....I am so glad you are not limiting to Plan B Goddesses.....I want and have been striving for a month to be a Plan A GODDESSES....so count me in.....lol....

So lets see....

Mascara and lipstick on....check
New outfit.....well not the top, but new jeans on...check
(had to buy new clothes this weekend since I've lost 20 lbs since DDay...1 sexy outfit, 1 nice outfit, 1 casual outfit, new socks, new undies and bra set....LOOKOUT WS NOW....)
New Do....hmmmm....make appointment today....
Pedicure....new 2 wait another week or 2 (old one isn;t old enough yet)
New Makeup....does it count if you are putting it on everyday for the first time in years???

New experience I want to try??? Bikini wax.....

There you go sister Goddesses....you should think of something for YOURSELF that you have always wanted to try (bikini wax, facial, a massage...call your local tech. school that teaches massage therapy...they offer massages at a much lower rate...my mom teaches at one and you can get an hour masssage for $25....)....
and then we can all hold each other accountable to make sure that we try our "experience".....

Well, hubby's been couching it on and off, to give me plenty of room to maneuver in the bed at night, which is a blessing right now, but we're together right up until I slumber so I'm rubbing and touching and laughing and listening.
