Running around casual wear and some body musings

A rare share of my weekend clothes.  I got up early on Saturday morning, got in my workout, dyed my hair, fed the kids and then we were OFF! I have been trying to switch my workouts to be in the morning.   Not only do I dislike working out…I dislike getting up early at […]

Easy, breezy

When I got up on this morning and looked outside it was really, really windy.  The weather gods were blowing in a warm front, and there was a heat advisory that day. Even so…cold office. This outfit marries the two a bit.  It is nice and comfortable, but can be made cooler by taking off […]

I have committed a fashion faux pas, apparently.  White jeans before Memorial Day.  Is that even a current faux pas?  If people can wear pajama pants to the grocery store, you would think I could wear white jeans before Memorial Day.

I am in a quandry.  I apparently can’t go window shopping without buying the window.  Often I want to just go try on clothes because I like clothes.  I think to myself, “Don’t buy anything today!”  I can usually manage to not buy.  Unless it is jeans.  For some reason I have a hard time […]

All or nothing

By on September 14, 2010

Perhaps it is my Type A personality.  Perhaps I just need a routine in my life in order to not go off my rocker from a crazy schedule.  One thing is for certain…I can’t just “exercise whenever I have time”.  That time will never arrive, I can guarantee that. I started my exercise routine on […]
