Real Mannequin

This picture was taken last Christmas at Chinook Center. There are several of these all over the mall in different costume. I can't imagine doing this line of work. These people are expected to stand still for at least an hour or so. Would you be interested to be dressed up like this?

It's a good thing it's Christmas season... the mannequin's costumes were decent and wholesome.... if it's Halloween, we might see some daring and sexy costumes.

Maximizing room space

I went to a client's house about 2 weeks ago to do their whole family's taxes. Parents and children and even grandparents. Their home was well decorated and the space were really maximized! And I was amazed at the siegel literature displays they've got on the kids' bedroom. You'd think that you will only see these display stands at the mall, but no, it actually looked good in their bedrooms. Too bad I didn't have the nerve to ask them if I could take a picture of their bedroom.

Weight loss update

Now that tax season is less than a month away, I can't wait to go back to the gym. I missed my Zumba class.

The good news is despite my not going to the gym the past 2 months, I was able to keep my current weight in check. Thanks to Adapexin-p. I only take it every other day.

I've lost a total of 20 lbs since my diet last summer. And I intend to work on losing another 10 lbs. I know it's a slow process, but as long as I get to keep the excess weight off, I am good.
