We finally did it. A month after Stevie’s actual heart-iversary, we went to Disneyland to celebrate this little heart warrior. It was kind of fitting, actually, since we went during CHD Awareness Week. This was something Paul and I talked about doing while we were still in the hospital. Stevie was recovering, lying in the…
February 14th. Halfway through the month! Near the beginning of Spring! Today marks the end of CHD Awareness Week, and a little “holiday” known as Valentine’s Day. It’s hard to ignore Valentine’s Day. As hard as you try. And trust me, I really do try. I’m just soooo not a fan. Probably because I eat…
Pleather leggings. How do we feel about these? I was very shy to wear them at first because my husband had a rather… unique expression on his face when I brought them home. And I didn’t just buy one pair, I bought two. He cringed and said they looked like I was wearing someone else’s…
I have been into Abercrombie & Fitch once. The music blaring from the store is enough to keep me away. But I was sucked in by the $39 denim sale. (Actually looks like they are still on sale, #damnthisshoppingdiet!) These jeans looked super super skinny on the shelf, so I bought them a size up.…
Sometimes a little trip to the country is good for the soul. We get to see family and friends, we get to enjoy the big beautiful outdoors, we get to eat 5 Guys with fry sauce, we get to jump and run and play and laugh. Happy. Headed home…
I’m so excited to have a guest post up at Clothed Much! I talk about what brought on my no-shopping resolution. (It’s not temporary insanity like you were thinking.) Hope you’ll take a moment to check it out! __________________________________________ Pink Cardi: H&M (Similar) Gray Jeans: Gap (Similar) Double Sided Scarf: Handmade Boots: Rocketdog (Similar) Watch:…
February is full of hearts. Pink hearts, red hearts, candy hearts, chocolate hearts. But there’s another type of heart that plays an important part. Confirmed: I’ve been reading way too much Dr. Seuss. This post is not to show off my rhyming skills, but to remind you that February is Heart Health Awareness Month! CHD…
Sometimes Daddy is off work for a little while. And sometimes the sun shines warm and bright on our patio early in the mornings. And sometimes we eat Cuties. And sometimes, all those things happen at the same time. And it is bliss. The really cold days were rough on my bougainvilleas. Hoping they recover…
I woke up early. 6am. I stumbled to the bathroom as dim sunlight peeked through the curtains. Crawled back into bed. I stirred around for awhile. My back was aching and the sciatica in my left leg was starting to act up. I turned on a heating pad and proceeded to burn the uncomfortable feeling…
When I first got this poncho a couple years ago, I wore it with dark jeans and brown flat boots. I felt like Princess Leia fighting for the rebel forces, minus the braids and the laser gun and the Hans Solo. Not quite as cool. So I never wore it in public again. I guess…
