So little to post today

Got some more chores done yesterday... still no pictures of the items I bought in Atlanta. I'll take that picture today when I get home.. would've done it yesterday, but I forgot my camera. The third bedroom is basically cleaned up so Garrett has a place to sleep and the rest of the house is, well, passable. :) If it were renaissance time, it would be immaculate, so there you have it. 
I hope to get the Christmas lights up tomorrow morning and then I'll be as fully festive as I'm going to get. 


My outfit today:


What you see: 
Jeans: Levis, not sure where I got them or what I paid....
Pullover: LSU
Shoes: Madeline, c/o Overstock, $20


What you don't see:
Sweater: Prive, Dillards... Cashmere purple sweater... nice... I just don't feel like taking my pullover off yet! :)


Today is what I'd call a "be glad I'm showing up and not going postal on all of you" un-fashion Friday :)

Brrrrr....

Yes, I am officially in hibernation mode. It took all I had to get out from under the covers this morning and bundle up to walk Jax. There was a pretty good layer of frost on the ground this morning and as far as I'm concerned, that should mean everyone gets to sleep for an extra hour or so! Jackson had to wear his coat this morning, and after he'd eaten his breakfast, he was still cold! This is him lying on my bed while I got ready.... and he's shivering. I took the picture with my phone and apparently the computer refuses to recognize that I rotated and saved the picture so that it would be upright... so excuse these 2 sideways pictures. Stupid computer. 

So, once I am ready, I move Jax to his bed, so he can jump down whenever he is ready... This is him after I set him on his bed and opened his window....again, forgive the sideways view....

And here's me.... I am wearing my fabulous grey boots... these were one of my last purchases before I started my blog... they are Calvin Klein. I found them at TJ Maxx on a random trip. I spent more on them than any one item I've ever purchased at a discount store, but they were so unique, I just had to have them! They are a distressed grey leather and really comfy. :)


Today:
Skirt: White House Black Market. Had for several years. Really is kinda big now, but that equals comfy LOL
Grey Shirt: Banana, $15
Sweater: Old Navy, $9
Boots: Calvin Klein, TJ Maxx, $99
Necklace: Big Lots, $5

Gosh dang... I don't like any of these pictures!! Ugh.... Oh well, you get the point of the outfit. Sheesh. I'm going to have to do something about the lighting/my camera...

When Will I get it done Wednesday??

I was so unproductive yesterday. I am pretty sure I was a grizzly bear in my previous life because about all I'm motivated to do when the days are short is curl up and sleep. I walked Jax in the cold drizzle when I got home yesterday, gave him his much needed bath, and that's about it. I haven't worked out in ages and I gained a pound over the weekend! Arg!! So, today, come hell or high water, I'm either going to workout or hang Christmas lights. I'm giving myself a choice but one or the other must get done. :) 


It's pretty chilly out and I wasn't ready to take my jacket off when I was taking my outfit pictures this morning. I'm not loving any of the pictures, everything looks a bit rumpled, but I also don't feel like taking more pictures, so this is it today!! 


Pants: JC Penny, Worthington, $14
Blue Top: Banana, Clearance, $10
Sweater: St. John's Bay, JC Penny
Shoes: Coach, via DSW several years ago

Tuesday Snoozeday

I so did not want to get out of bed this morning. The temps are dropping and I think my jet lag finally caught up to me. I am really sleepy this morning. Trying to drink a lot of water and wake myself up. Of course, the fact that the heat is on in my office and it's so nice and toasty isn't helping me snap out of my sleep zone. :) 
I figured the facilities people wouldn't turn our heat on in the building until later in the week when it gets really chilly and since I froze to death yesterday, I thought it would be smart to wear a bulky sweater today. Of course, when  arrived, it was about 85 degrees in my office. So my best laid plans went awry.


My outfit today:


Pants: The Limited; Haven't been able to wear them for so long. I can't even remember when I got them!
Sweater: Loft, $30
Bracelets: Loft, Clearance $5
Shoes: Antonio Melani, Dillard's Clearance, $34

Here we are again....

Seems like I always find myself in the same spot on Mondays... trying hard to pretend like everything is going to be okay and then by about 9 am being desperate to get out!!!!!!! I just keep praying something is right around the corner. I'm thinking the first opportunity that presented itself probably isn't going to happen, so I'm just hoping there will be something else really soon. 


Anyway.... it's rainy here today and supposed to be this way tomorrow as well; I've got tons to do this week, from running errands at lunchtime practically every day to getting some good workouts in to unpacking and cleaning the house up before company comes this weekend. With so much to do, it should make the week pass by quickly!!


My outfit today:


Navy dress: Banana $35 This is a recent "cheat" purchase I got when Mom was in town for T-Giving
Sweater: Willi Smith, TJ Maxx, $10-15 I think
Necklace: Can't remember where I picked it up!
Shoes: Nine West, Clearance, $20


Technically, these shoes are grey and black, and I'm wearing a navy dress. But I think it goes! :)

Atlanta!

I did a tiny bit of shopping in ATL- I'll take pictures of what I got one night this week and post it on here.
