Alas, the curse of the computer

Well, it happens to all of us:
THE CURSE OF THE COMPUTER.
Yep, my laptop is acting so funky, I cant even sign on.
So....Dragged out my sons' hand me down, and am using it.
So.....I am behind on posting.

And of course, I work retail.
2 retail jobs.
And yes, whew it's gotten busy at both.

So here's a few pics of me from the last week or so..
I have been keeping up on facebook, so fill free to add and visit me there.
Until then, I am thankful for this "back up" computer..

Just thankful


I have been posting something I am thankful for everyday on Facebook.
When times are rocky, its nice to remind yourself all that we do have.

I feel so blessed to have an amazing son.
Friday was the last home game, with him as the Drum Major.
Words alone cannot tell you how that kid moves me.
He rocks my world!
I look forward to seeing how he shares his joy with others in his path.
Thank you Dolan!

Catching up..



Here's yesterdays outfit-this is the first time I have worn this "caplet" that I made.
Next one, I need to make larger, but this is how I learn when I made up patterns.




And here I am today.
This dress was to the floor, and oatmeal.
Nope, I had to dye it and cut it off!
Its so nice and warm and cozy, plus
I couldnt resist showing off one of my lovely vintage slips!
 I love these boots, they remind me of "hippie" boots that I never had growing up.

Thankfull for comfy dresses


What do you wear when you work 2 jobs?
Yep, comfy knit dress!
And my killer cowboy boots.,
I love these boots.
When I was little, I had a pair of red ones I wore all the time.
I have been thrfiting for another pair, so I can paint them,
sooner or later I will find them!


And this dress, I bought it, thinking I would chop it off and make it a skirt.
But, it has been so awesome as a dress, it will stay that way.
One customer commented that I looked very "artistic" yesterday.
(must be the print, not that I am a funky dresser! LOLOLOL)
