It was Ladies Night!!! \u00a0Cool Beans! \u00a0Everything the ladies purchased was an additional 30% off the already marked down items. \u00a0They also had a wine and cheese bar AND CUPCAKES!<\/p>\n<p>The cupcakes were full sized cupcakes with a TON of frosting on top. Mmmmm!!! \u00a0And I did not have one. \u00a0I had already closed my food diary for the day and could not justify that many calories. \u00a0I DID however have a half a glass of wine. That is low in cals and I was able to justify those calories! \u00a0 \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0But, I digress&#8230;back to the shopping.<\/p>\n<p>I found a cute pair of just above the ankle boots. \u00a0Kinda a softer version of a combat, lace up, leather boot. \u00a0Black. \u00a0They are cute, cute, cute and they make my feet happy. \u00a0I bought three pair of socks (exciting, I know) and a suitcase! \u00a0We needed another suitcase that would fit in the overhead compartments on airplanes. \u00a0We found incredible sales last night and saved over $70.00!!! \u00a0We were pleased!<\/p>\n<p>So, four more days until we head north but I am wearing my new boots today! \u00a0Here is a pic of the nice man how poured me my free glass of wine last night.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/?attachment_id=1951\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1951\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1951\" alt=\"IMG_20131010_184736_246\" src=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_20131010_184736_246.jpg\" width=\"3264\" height=\"1836\" srcset=\"http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_20131010_184736_246.jpg 3264w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_20131010_184736_246-300x168.jpg 300w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_20131010_184736_246-1024x576.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/w0ep.us\/TM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/IMG_20131010_184736_246-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s Run: \u00a0Rest Day Tomorrow is the last &#8220;long run&#8221; of my marathon training. \u00a0In four days I will (with my husband) be boarding a plane for Maine! \u00a0Hey, YA!
