You can say what you will about Tuesday, but one thing’s for sure: it’s not Monday, so at least there’s that.
I slept fitfully last night; waking up for no reason an hour after I’d fallen asleep, and then couldn’t get back to sleep. Then cue the panic about only having a few hours of sleep left before the alarm inevitably ruins your life.
But The queen. She can fix most anything. She was pretty much the reason I managed to wake up and make it to work. I’m running scarily low on my supply of her, though, and need to replenish that “forthwith” as professionals in my world would call it. She’s still the perfect combination of smokey and sweet, bracing but gentle. It occurred to me that as I amass more and more tea, I seem to want each one less and less as it becomes old. Or maybe that’s just the way I am about a lot of things. Like the timolino? well I obviously need four or five of them. Want to start incorporating running into your life? ok, sign up for a marathon! Like hoodies from Lululemon (yes, a phase from a few years ago) then own one in every colour. But Queen has withstood the test of time, at least so far, and I love her for it. It’ll never get old, or so I’m hoping.
A good Tuesday to all of you. As early as tomorrow afternoon, the weekend ahead of us will be closer than the one behind us. Woohoo!

Hahaha, I laughed at the Lulu comment. I have probably 6 of them, which I still wear to and from yoga and such. But I haven’t bought anything from them in over 2 years. They are not the company they once were.
I’m entirely with you on the decline of the quality of clothing at lulu. it’s really too bad. And because of that (and the fact that it’s not really acceptable to wear lulu to work), I haven’t purchased anything from there in a while, either.
I’ve recently abstained from Lulu as well – I used to be huge on their clothing, loved every bit of it. Last thing I bought and probably ever will buy is a pretty flower spring jacket last winter that was on sale. The zipper tends to jam up, and the fabric is very flimsy and thin…it feels like something I would have paid maybe 75% less for than what I did. Definitely not up to par compared to the other Lulu clothes I own.
I used to adore their headbands and nothing worked better, but the newest one I have is awful and won’t stay on my head. :(
I know. Quality has really gone out the window. even their hoodies used to be so much thicker and more flexible. Now they’ve added all sorts of cheap fabric to the sides. Their clothing is neither as functional or as flattering as it once was. It’s too bad.
Agree with both you ladies, although I do like the scuba hoodie with the ribbing on the sides. I’ve been hard pressed to find other clothes replace the lulu pants I will have to replace soon. So far I’ve found a couple brands – Public Myth and one that I can’t think of the name on right now. All made in Canada. Also, if you need just a plain yoga pant – TNA still makes theirs in Canada as well. Have yet to try the crops, but want to. With all the heat that Lulu has taken recently press wise as well, I cannot continue to support a company with a founder as obtuse as he is.
100!!!! I must try this now!
