What did the Momma Tomato say to the Baby Tomato?

Ketchup!!! Which is also what I need to do with my blog. I am completely out of the habit of taking pictures and posting. Which speaks to the fact that I am busier/more involved on the work front these days!


Here are a few outfit pictures to catch me up some...

This one makes my office look like it's falling over....

 Alas, eventually I hope to figure out a good picture spot. Until then, I'll have to keep experimenting.

Playing Catch Up

Having to catch up with the blog... I find it's hard to get pictures taken now that I'm out of my daily routine in the old office. That and I haven't found a good picture spot here yet. I'll keep working on that. 


In the meantime, here are two outfits, one from Wednesday of last week and today's. I have to tell on myself, these shoes are new and they are FABULOUS!!!!! I found them on White/Black's website early last week and they were on a decent sale and I just thought they were really unique and I was betting with the platform that they would be pretty comfortable too. I was right! I'm super excited about these!

I just thought the morning shadows on the building next door were really pretty!

And now back to the outifts....

Hopefully I can get settled and back into my outfit picture routine now!!


Here's yesterday's and today's outfits:


Monday: 


Dress: NY&Co, $12
Cardi: JCPenny I think
Shoes: Nine West

Today:


Sweater: NY&Co, $9.99
Pants: Limited from Marshalls, $10
Shoes: Kenneth Cole, $35

Look at that awesome office in the background!!!

Extreme office makeover!

And the after.....


Looks like a whole new place and I LOVE IT!!!!!

The new gig!

The first week in Music & Dramatic Arts flew by! It was definitely trial by fire, but not in an overwhelming way, I just quickly learned that no one knew/knows much about the things this position does and is responsible for so even on my first day I was having to field questions I really didn't know answers to. I decided to create flowcharts for each of the concentrations within the curricula, which map out the courses students have to take each semester. That helped me tremendously to begin to feel more comfortable with the course advising aspect of the job. Everything else is learning by doing. Trying to figure out who teaches what instrument for music, etc... It'll come along, it's a learning process.


One of the top priority items for sure was "fixing up" my office. It was a horrible light blue color with nothing on the walls and no decent furniture. Mom came down for the weekend and was my busy little worker bee and without her help, this project would've been really miserable!! 


I'll post these outfit pictures not to really focus on the outfits, but so you can see the office in the background, since I didn't take the "before" pictures. I'll have to steal some of those from Mom.


Here's my first days' outfits/ the sad looking office in the background...

Pulling up to the building on my first day:

 My second day. Hoping I look so pale tired because I'd just finished re-arranging some furniture... I'd like to think I didn't leave the house looking this washed out!

Notice the sad blue walls and lack of well, anything!

 Even my fab scarf didn't help the surroundings! :)

 The view out of my window

Decisions, decisions.... no one really liked the darker paint sample, and even I was a little hesitant but I went with my gut and I'm so happy I did!

The last day

Of course, who would've thought that my last day would go smoothly? It didn't, but there is no point dwelling on the ridiculousness of it all....


Here's a "happy shot" of me on the way to work for my last day in Science:

 I ended up making that day a half-day and it was probably for the best. It was a Friday and it gave me a 2 and a half day weekend to be ready for my first day in MDA!
