This week, Aubree challenged her readers to wear something they’d either thrifted, free~piled or got for cheap and since I love a good sale, this was a relatively easy challenge for me. Just about every outfit has an article of clothing that was either gifted or purchased on sale. I […]
I was never a Seinfeld fan until it went off the air and I started watching it in syndication. I just didn’t get it, a show about nothing? Not funny. I was wrong, it is. But I digress. Do you remember the episode where George says if you look angry […]
There is no story to go with these wedges. I saw them, I wanted them, I don’t wear them. That is all. Well, no, that’s not all. I don’t wear them because they cut off the circulation in my legs because I tie the straps so tight. I tie them […]
The hubs never ceases to amaze me. Today I was sitting on the sofa, working on my notebook, when the hubs walked in and said “Stand up”. Now, anyone who knows me, knows I immediately went in to “You don’t tell me what to do” mode. I stood up anyway, […]
I’m sitting here watching the news coverage of Hurricane Irene and the one thing that strikes me is the stupidity of people. Governors in 10 states have already declared states of emergency and/or ordered mandatory evacuations, yet, there are people who are adamant about remaining in their homes. What? One guy […]
I’ve enjoyed this challenge so much. Seeing the pictures that others have taken, makes me want to do better, aim differently, focus on one feature and just have fun. I’ve also learned a lot from the various tips and suggestions that some of you have included with your photographs. Thank […]
One of the things that first struck me when the hubs and I visited Missouri for the first time was incredible amount of parks ~ 2 large parks, 1 water park and a series of smaller community parks. Not only were there a lot of parks but just about every […]
What I Wore Wednesday Tunic ~ HSN Skinny Jeans ~ Deb’s Bangles ~ Everywhere Sandals ~ Family Dollar I love the tunic, I just don’t wear it very often because I don’t know how to wear it. It’s long and came with a gold rope belt which looked a lot […]
Our dog, Squeekerz, waking up from one of many naps that he takes during the day. This photo is my entry into this week’s I Heart Faces Photo Challenge: Pet Week. I HEART FACES PHOTO CHALLENGE RULES Photo challenges are open for entries on Mon & Tues (until 9:00 pm CST). To […]
A few weeks before we left Pennsylvania, my mother called me up and said “As soon as you arrive, we’re going to this shoe store. I found the perfect pair of shoes for you.’ She went on to try and describe the shoes to me and to tell me how […]
Welcome to the final edition of the Crazy Days of Summer Photo Challenge! I just found out that I was mistaken, there’s one more week left. Yay! So be prepared to read this exact same post next week but with different pictures… I’ve enjoyed this challenge so much. Seeing the […]
I’m sitting here in the living room, The Golden Girls playing in the background, knowing I should be in bed sleeping but I can’t. There’s too much going through my head. Today is the first day of school for the younger three kids and the day we move the oldest […]
