Sleepy

Hi all my fans! ;-)
Tatiana is at home in bed, flipping through the latest ELLE magazine and watching Jay Leno. Jennifer Lawrence is on the cover of ELLE and also Leno's guest tonight. Tatiana thinks that Jennifer is a very good looking girl. Some people look so much better in a picture than live.
This morning for example, Katie Holmes was a guest on LIVE with Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan, she does not look that great at all but made up and photo shopped in a picture she can actually look deceivingly pretty.
Speaking of tv shows, one of Tatiana's dream jobs would probably be to take over the job of either Kathie Lee, Hoda Kotb or Kelly Ripa. They seem to have so much fun, while in New York City of all places. Dream job in a dream location. And Michael Strahan is a giant teddy bear, Tatiana loves him as the new co host. You might wonder what Tatiana does watching the TODAY show and LIVE? Well, they come on at 10 and 11 am and that's when Tatiana usually wakes up, she doesn't like to jump out of bed as soon as she opens her eyes, unless she really has to be somewhere. Instead, she cuddles with Chhaya, watches tv with one eye and drifts in and out of sleep until she finally gets up and gets her latte somewhere. And she likes Kathie Lee and Hoda, they are fun to wake up to.
This was Tatiana's delicious dinner for the evening. Fruit plate - blueberries, strawberries, bananas, apples and Tatiana added cottage cheese on top. 4 %, Tatiana does not like the low fat or non fat foods, neither the sugar free foods.



Speaking of food. Thanksgiving is soon. Tatiana does not understand all the hysteria about NEEDING a turkey on the table. Sure it is a tradition in this country but really? Is is THAT important? Thanksgiving is supposedly about giving thanks but it seems to be more about the food and what deal you might score at some large chain store like Best Buy or Wal Mart.
Tatiana would never camp out some store for days in order to get some gadget. She would maybe camp out for some rave tickets though......
Seems like Thanksgiving is about gluttony big time. Tatiana thinks that turkey is tasty but hasn't had any in years. The poor turkeys are so mistreated their whole short life and shock fed hormones. How else do you think they get so big in such a short time? And that is what people want to eat.....HAVE TO eat, a bird full of growth hormones and probably antibiotics too. The best thing would be to get the turkey from some farm that raises them as "nice" and clean as possible or you can get one from Whole Foods, Tatiana fave store btw. Tatiana likes Whole Foods more than Nordstrom or Saks. Whole Foods is the best.
And what about all the places that feed Thanksgiving food to the "homeless and needy"? Turkey. They are already feeding a ton of people "in need" in Anchorage, some of them probably show up at the shelters so they don't have to buy their own Thanksgiving food, they don't want to spend their own money. After watching some the folks getting their free meals on tv today, that is the assessement Tatiana made. Seems like some of them were there for the free food and they will go back tomorrow and the next day and the next.......although they can afford buying their own food.
And maybe you shouldn't be popping out a kid once a year if you can't feed yourself? How about that?
Sure, it is important to feed the needy, hungry and homeless. Tatiana believes in helping.
But some people don't want to help themselves. Or don't do anything to improve their situation, sometimes make it worse. How is having a baby going to solve any problems? And if you think you have problems and a difficult economy having one kid, wait until you get another one -or even better a few more! Party time!
Tatiana doesn't think that turkey should be pushed so hard for Thanksgiving. They are always advertising that they need more turkeys donated to the shelters this time of year, how many turkeys do they need? It seems to never be enough. And if you are needy and homeless then whatever they serve at the shelter should be good enough. Eat potatoes and veggies and be freakin' happy and give thanks! Tatiana is happy when she eats her potatoes and veggies.

Winter

Here are some winter wonderland pictures from where I live. I took them yesterday afternoon - one of those beautiful sunny winter days.
The road leading up to where I live.....



Snow covered backyard.....



Home Sweet Home.....





My Weekend

The weekend is almost over.....it's Monday tomorrow. How was your weekend?
Mine was great! I worked Friday and Saturday but not today, Sunday. More about work later.
Yesterday I met up with Lexi at our usual spot, Veronica's. I love their salad and soup, really good. This is what I looked like yesterday. I love my boots, I got them at Kitson in LA in 2006 and they still look nice. The jeans are from a Miss Sixty store in New York City and I got those in 2004 and they still fit! πŸ™‚
And the shirt is new, from Victoria's Secret, got it in Vegas last month.





Today I woke up around 11 but I lounged around in bed for another hour cuddling with Chhaya. Then I drove into town to do some errands. In the evening I had friends over for dinner. Fun!

Getting Coffee & Music



Tatiana is at Coffee Roasters getting her daily latte addiction taken care of. She is also downloading two songs onto her iPod, Diamonds by Rihanna - fave song right now, it is SOOOOOO good and Dirty Dancer by Enrique Iglesias.
Rihanna is on tour right now, Tatiana wishes she could go and see her live. As you might know by now, Tatiana LOVES Rihanna. Really! ❀



Check out these beautiful and talented ladies.......no wonder dancers are so popular and also envied by many (unhappy and insecure women). HA!



Besides that, it is Friday and sunshine outside. Tatiana is going to take care of a few quick errands and then take Chhaya for a walk in the cold.
A goofy pic from the couch last night, Tatiana lounged around on the couch for a few hours before something finally happened and she made money. Boring but relaxing at the same time. Some guy came up and asked for a dance while Tatiana was under her pink blanket on the couch.



Work

It's a little after 3 in the morning here and Tatiana recently got home from work, it was an ok night, worth driving to work for. Tatiana is warming up with a hot cup of Earl Grey tea, it's only
22 degrees outside........brrrrrrr! The bed looks really inviting but first there will be some face washing and face cream application.
Speaking of work.......Tatiana was actually booked at Heartbreakers in Williston right now for little over a two week stay. But she decided to cancel that booking. Why? Well, Tatiana decided that she is not in the mood to travel so soon again, she recently got back from South Dakota and Vegas. She wants to be home, relax and enjoy time with Chhaya. Also, she wasn't in the mood to go back to Williston right now, it is so boring there. Nothing to see or do during the day besides the coffee shop, grocery store and the gym. Tatiana doesn't want boring when she can have exciting. So......a few days ago Tatiana started planning another work trip and yesterday she got her plane ticket and booked a room to stay. Now this place is big, fun and offers everything at Tatiana's fingertips.
So Tatiana is happy that she decided to go there, she has been thinking about going to work in this place for a while but didn't do anything about it. Well, enough of the thinking.......it's time to get things done. Where is Tatiana going? As usual, she won't say until she is there,
it will be a surprise. You know the drill......keep on reading!
Well, it's time to wash away the mascara and go to bed now. Good night!


Hair



Got my hair cut today......FINALLY! Me and Melissa, the stylist, think it has been about 16 months since I last saw her for a cut. No wonder the last two inches or so of my hair looked so thin and ratty. But she took that off and I also had a deep conditioning treatment, sat under the dryer for 20 minutes.




And here is the results......not that you can see really because my hair is wet, I never blow dry my hair. I picked up some hair, skin and nails supplements when I was in Vegas. The bottle is called
MAXI-HAIR . I am not that good at taking vitamins, so far I have taken four capsules of those.
Besides that, a girl I work with said that when she was pregnant back to back with three babies, she ate prenatal vitamins and had hair down to her knees. The pregnany won't be an option for me, I will stick to the occasional supplements. I do think that my hair was much nicer a few years ago, it was fuller and better looking. Oh well.
