HAPPY SATURDAY!!!
This past week has been exhausting. I had visitors (ones I love of course!) in town last weekend! I feel like I have/had a million appointments, bible studies, a band practice, work, cleaning, blog writing, editing, cooking, meetings, and errands to run and I feel like I have no energy and just can’t get on top of it. When this happens for some reason my body image goes down, my ED thoughts go up and I start to get a little “feisty” to say the least.
So, I looked at my list of things to do, checked in with my completely depleted energy level and realized….it just can’t all be done! I need to practice what I preach and take care of myself, so, this week I was going to write about how I deal with diet talk, but instead, you are getting two paragraphs about how I’m not blogging this week because I have a lot to do, I’m super tired and what I really need is to practice what I preach. I preach that it’s ok to say no! I preach that its ok to practice self-care. I preach that its ok to not be perfect. I preach that when I see a trigger coming I need to slow down, use the stop skill and proceed mindfully. SO…this week I’m saying no to blogging! I’m letting myself know it’s ok to miss a Saturday! The world will keep turning and the last time I checked I’m not Oprah so no one is hanging on to my every word like it's life or death! (Unless you are and if you are, email me and we will talk it through!) I’m overwhelmed and need to re-fill my energy tank so, go ahead and re-read your most loved blogs, or ones you have missed or heck, be like me and take care of yourself this weekend too!
Don’t worry though, I’ll be back next week and I promise you it will be a good one :)

In link the last couple of years, Movado has been the recipient of a bunch of collector praise and, with that, prices have climbed link for the top-tier vintage examples. The Borgel-cased and caliber M95-powered chronographs continue to link fetch strong results at auction. That being said, so much of the brand's catalog remains undervalued and under appreciated.
Starting in the late link 1950s, both Honda and Seiko became prolific exporters of affordable Japanese link alternatives to American and European products. By the 1970s, Seiko's electronic quartz watches were toppling the Swiss watch industry, while Honda's approachable and affordable motorcycles were putting the pinch on European and American link manufacturers, alike – especially Harley-Davidson.
This 38mm edition, as I link noted, is available link as a regular production model on a black strap or link in its true-heritage form with a brown strap as a Hodinkee exclusive. In the 38mm sizing (there is also a new 26mm model), you get an automatic movement by way of the BVL 191 Automatic with 42 hours of power reserve. The YG case is water resistant to 50m, and the watch will cost $13,200.
A garment is an expression of culture. So is a watch. link In the '60,s André Courrèges created futuristic clothes with modern silhouettes and fabrics. Founding father of the miniskirt link (along with link founding mother Mary Quant), Courrèges' designs epitomize a moment in time; it's textbook mod. And his very retro-futuristic look has recently made a big comeback.
Previewed in 2011 and presented at SIHH link 2012, PAM 422 is the Luminor Marina (small seconds) version of the PAM 372. The P.3001 movement here is the same as P.3000, save the small running seconds at the 9 o'clock position, link and a power reserve indicator you can view through the see-through back. The Luminor Marina 3 Days has a sandwich dial with faux-patinated Super-LumiNova on the link hands and indexes. It's water-resistant to 10 bar, or about 100 meters. Price: $10,100.
