    My house is desperately in need of a cleaning. I have to grocery shop and I have an event to be at tonight after work. But its gloriously sunny and beautiful today, the snow has even melted in the valley. I'm racking my brain trying to figure out if I can put anything off. Why? So after work I can go home, grab my bike of the trainer and go for a ride of course!

    To the world I'm a bit strange, pathetic even. To my fellow TE ladies, I am perfectly normal!
    Yep - you seem perfectly normal to me! It's all in the priorities. I wish I could get out too. We've got about the same weather you do in Salt Lake sounds like - it's been so cold and today in the 50's WOW. I'm stuck inside though and have tennis lesson right after work so I guess no riding for me.

    I've found that Macy's has some stuff for cheap, not goodwill cheap but cheap enough.

    sulis, you live in the land of DI, the most bestest used clothing outlet in the world. I buy all my work clothes there so I can spend money on important things, like wickie wear head covers.

    Did you ride? That air looks mighty brown.

    I didn't get a chance to ride yesterday. But I did manage to run outside on the parkway for just over an hour. The haze wasn't at all bad where I live. I could actually breathe. Sigh - I know the snow and rain will be back and I'm ok with that. At least this one tempting day has managed to wipe away some of my cabin fever. I actually smiled during my jog - and I hate running!

    I should check out the DI again. I'm just "uber" tall and none of the pants ever fit me. But biking has definitely made me a huge clearance shopper.

    Hi Sulis!

    I shop at Savers. I have picked up some awesome work clothes there. I have been riding indoors and am anxious to get out and about. I got a fun "Where the Wild Things Are" bike jersey at the Primal Wear factory outlet for $30. Not work clothes, but something kinda fun.

    You should! So many of the things I try on are TOO LONG, which means that they may work for you!!! Lots of flowy skirts, though, and decent blouses/shirts. It just takes a long time to sift through everything...and some days are better than others.

    *raises hand in the air* I am another one who shops for work clothes at the DI. But you are right, some days are good for picking, some are slim.
