There was frost on the ground this morning which means muddy little paws…
Anna waiting for Miss Ellie to return from her walk.
How was everyone’s 12-12-12? Blaine had a board meeting and we joked about how 12 board members were meeting at 12 noon on 12-12-12! Me? No meetings for me today. We did have a Christmas dinner to attend for one of our local banks. That was about it and…I’m not complaining one bit!
It was a consignment/thrifty day…
…minus the jeans and tank. Once a year I make a big purchase of tanks and basic t-shirts in red, black, white, turquoise, etc. – winter colors. I try to buy good quality because they are going to be worn through all the seasons. They will get a good workout and need to hold up. Fall/Winter, I use them to layer under pieces. In the Spring, some layering with blouses & light blazers. Summer they can stand alone or with an added scarf or piece of jewelry.
Last Spring, when Sarah and I headed up to buy these basics, we caught a sale at Forever 21. The tanks were long enough for me – not easy to find. One thing she and I both have noticed is how the tanks ride up. Ugh! So disappointing! They are fine if you are using them to tuck into your pants/skirts. I’m thinking they will be used for jammy shirts here shortly. Pun definitely intended!
Sorry Heather! No self-portrait today. I will keep trying!
