    I’ve always thought that I didn’t like green. Apparently, I’m quite wrong. Who knew? When I look around my house, I don’t see a lot of green, but when I started scouring my blog, green popped up everywhere. Then I looked at my wrists and noticed the green Apple Watch band {note the olive green embroidered top} and the green bead bracelets {gifts from The Hubs}.

    Hey, y’all, hey! How’s your 2024 going so far? To watch the news, you’d think 2023 had a meeting and was like “Yo, it’s time to square up” because 2024 came in kicking butt and taking names. I hope this isn’t a sign of things to come because *whew* I’m already over it. On a personal level, things are exhale a giant of sigh of relief I came in to 2024 waiting to have a breast ultrasound because my mammogram showed “areas of concern.” Talk about stressed. Thankfully, it turned out to be nothing but a bunch of cysts, but the waiting… I’m glad it’s over. Other than that, things…

How’re things in your neck of the woods? We’re doing well here. The heat has subsided to a small degree, so we’re all a bit more comfortable. We’re at about 90something degrees, which is a far cry from the triple digits we’ve been dealing with over the summer. I also found the most stunning black…

    As usual, I’m late. I don’t really have a valid excuse. Especially since I look forward to these monthly blogging parties. It’s so fun learning more about my blogging buddies beyond our outfits. Although I do love a good outfit post, because a girl can always use the inspiration.
