So lately i have been a little obsessed with this new blog i came across a couple weeks ago, building season is crazy busy for me and sometimes i just need some down time during the day to float off into lala land ... as cleaning is simply not a fun way to do nothing - firstly cause it is doing something... so i read blogs and this one includes a bonus, these is music steaming in the background (oh my i might be tired - what i meant to say was "there is music streaming in the background")and it is light and easy to listen too, sorry cleaning but i will see you later!! I highly recommend you check her blog out, her photography is amazing, her little ones are beautiful, and the colors... ohh the colors, i would dress like her little girls everyday if i knew i could pull it off at my age... hee hee (rubber boots included and if you lived were i live you would be wearing them too!)

and while checking out an older post on her blog of her "nella's birthday" I came across a hair cut that I think I will be showing my hair dresser - the lady in black - I like the bangs... although a "p" (dare i say it... okay here it goes...) maybe a perm is necessary too!! i will keep you posted, as i tend to chicken out when it comes to perms!! (photo via her blog - I have never posted anything I found from someone else - is that okay... I hope so!... I give her all the credit for the photo)



I used to sew - even in high school i would sew dresses and then attempt to wear them to church, they were usually way to big as i thought i was "big" back them - now some many pounds later and boy do i wish for that figure... hmmmm... okay i'm having a moment - but as my mom always says - "one day our bodies will be perfect"... for me i think of a body minus over 2' of abdominal scars... i wish i could get over that some days - you know to be honest i think about it almost everyday... why do i do that to myself??... well i think if the nerves were not damaged and the pain would go away it would be much easier to not think about it... but when you sit for your job, any pressure makes an odd sensation on a waist with no feeling, do you have any idea what it feels like to have an itchy tummy and not be able to itch it... sorry i was feeling sorry for myself... bad bad me...



I am thinking of sewing dresses again to eliminate the "band" on my waist... so i picked up my new friend "Mayley" , seen above, and her and i are going to get creative! i drank four cups of coffee yesterday afternoon from S-Bucks and Tim's so i was not felling very sleepy last night, and oh what ideas i had for all sorts of fun dresses... i have some great ideas... and cannot wait to put some of those ideas to life! Today i was lala landing it again and went to the v.secret website for inspiration - both for hair and for shoes, and clothes... my "shopping trip" was successful and i ended up attempting to order this first dress only to be charged almost as much as the dress for shipping - so i have decided to try my hand at it first... the skirt could be difficult but i have crocheting connections!!

this one is my fav...



i have boys... so i will add some straps...
