Tammi's World

Favorite

Like most of the country last night, I watched the Superbowl.  I will say this much, I do love the fact that it's not such a late night event out here in LaLa Land. Made this morning a lot easier.

Anyway - it's a huge event for me.  I love football, and I'm the only person I know that watches commercials on a regular basis. Last night? I recorded the game, just so I could go back and watch the ads again.

And while not blown away last night I did have a couple that stuck out for me.

First, and dare I say favorite?

I don't love smart mouthed kids, but I do love this commercial!!

And  I loved the Snickers ad.

I hated to Go Daddy ads. Period.

So you tell me.....which one was your favorite this year?

Learnings

So I got home late Sunday night.  It was a great trip. I did not have one bad day. Not one.  A few days sittin' in the sun, got a little color finally.  It's hysterical as my guys think I got so dark. They have no idea.....lol.

I did develop a real fondness for Mango Coladas. Holy Moly! Those are some good drinks.

I brought the guys a gators tooth.  Seems to have gone over well. Most of them want to make it into a necklace.  I just thought they'd find them interesting.

Me? I went shopping. See, I'd gotten into a real funk this year. Gaining weight hasn't helped and I'd started to dress a bit like a prude. That is SO not me.  Well, there's nothin' like shopping with someone who knows you, really KNOWS you, to help get you out of the funk.  It worked.  I feel great.

Now, I'm pretty sure it was that along with the human contact - hugging - along with a few compliments that did it.  Seriously - I've said it time and time again, let folks know if you like something, if they look nice. It matters. It really really matters.  Out here, I don't get any of those.  And I never realized how much I miss that.  There is nothing like a compliment to make you walk a little taller.

Anyway - I have some new clothes and a new spring in my step.  A smile on my face and some memories to get me through the next year.

The only problem is the new shoes I bought hurt my feet.  I tried 'em on. Really I did. They felt great when I bought them. But this morning? They feel about 1/2 size too small.  It makes no logical sense.  I just figure it's this place. 

I guess California doesn't like me much more than I like it.

And it's taking it out on my feet.........
