Hello, Negativity? This is Kate. I’m kicking you out.

SHEESH I’ve been a downer lately! It’s like I took every good thing in the world and decided I hated it!
In an attempt to be more positive, I have a list of things that are making me happy today!!!
- I just had my eyebrows waxed. Unibrow be gone! I look like a new woman!
- I’m getting my hair done tonight. I’m thinking lots of sexy red and keeping the length. Va-va voom!
- It’s about ten degrees cooler than average here this week. So far this has been the MOST glorious year in Phoenix!
- In just over 24 hours I’ll be on my way to the airport to pick up my girls to start our rockin’ vacation!!
- As a thank you for doing him a HUGE favor (and being the best admin in the history of the world for the two years I worked for him) my former boss (and dear friend) bought me THESE!

I refer to them as my “everyday Manolos” even though they are my first and ONLY Manolos and I’m a wee bit scared to wear them. Maybe when I go to see Sex in the City this weekend I will don them!
- I went to the gym last night and I feel SO much better today because of it. I will never go a week without going to the gym again. Even if I have to wake up at the butt crack of dawn.
- I just had a delicious turkey sandwich with avocado for lunch.
- I got a new covered parking space at work . . . away from the outdoor smoking area I was planted next to for the last month. It’s sad how happy this makes me.
- It’s JUNE! I love June.
And with that, I am off to find more things to make me happy, despite sitting at work freezing because the air conditioner is turned up full blast. I’m convincing myself that I LOVE THE COLD!

Holy…24 hours?? Man…I have to pack.
Those shoes are D. Vine! You have to wear them this weekend. Be not afraid, you will look smashing in them. With your new sassy Red hair? Shut up - you are a smokin’. That’s why your name is ‘Red Hot’…duh.

Um, those shoes? Are amazing. Have a great girlie weekend!

The new parking space is definitely something to celebrate–who would want to walk through a cloud of smoke everyday on their way in and out of work? There is nothing good about having your hair and wardrobe smell like smoke if you’re a non-smoker.
Have a fun vacation!!!

You own Manolos?! You are my hero. I think I would be a little bit afraid to wear them too but I would pretend that I wasn’t and wear them anyway.

How do I sign up for a boss that buys me shoes?? That seems TOTALLY up my alley!

Your boss… is so random. I mean, FABULOUS shoes. But… um… what boss buys shoes? Yours, I guess. Hahaha. Love ‘em. If I ever saw a pair of shoes that could kick out the negativity, these would be the ones.

Good for you…that was a great list of things to be happy about…and those shoes totally rock!!!
June 6th, 2008 at 9:02 am
Ok can I be you? Because I want someone to buy me Manolos!
June 7th, 2008 at 8:28 am
Fabulous shoes. Hilarious that they’re from your BOSS. (look out!)
LOVE the new attitude. You go, girl!
Oh, and add to MY happiness list that you recognized my back yard in those photos on my last post…and COMMENTED on hanging out there! Very cool (in a Twilight Zone kind of way…)

Hi, I just linked over while browsing and I LOVE your happy list. And I especially love those shoes…maybe you should consider working for that man again….

Those shoes would do it for me. Wow!
Also, Hi!
