Week 110! Y’all, we had another tornado warning just the other night. I had Nigel get into his wheelchair, and we huddled in the hallway. I threw several throw pillows on him and pulled a featherbed out for me and Jack. The storm passed quickly and wasn’t near as bad as the last one. But, …
An update… I have my docent graduation tour prepared and have been practicing like crazy on Nigel. I go over it almost every night in my head, too! I’m hoping to go to the museum this Friday to make sure the items I’ve selected are still on display. They are always opening new exhibits or …
Style Imitating Art… Welcome to Style Imitating Art which comes from Salazar, Shelbee, and me. You can think of this series as fashion meets art museum! SIA challenges people to find inspiration in different art works, create looks based upon that art work, and share them with the curator for that piece. Shelbee is this week’s curator …
Hello, friends! I hope your week has gone well. Mine has been a flurry of appointments and shopping with my oldest granddaughter. We shared a delicious piece of cheesecake at that one restaurant (you know the one). Sometime this summer, I’m going shopping with my youngest granddaughter. I know exactly which store we’ll be entering. …
Week 109! How’s the weather in your neck of the woods? Summer has arrived regardless of what the calendar says. It’s been warm and a little more humid than I like. My flowers are growing well even though I’m in a losing battle with at least one bunny. Some kind of bird has decided one …
It’s time for another Global Writing Challenge prompt. Our current membership consists of MK’s Adventures in Style, Deb’s World, Women Over 50 Living Well, Suzy Turner, Once Upon a Time Happily Ever After, Rosie Amber, and me. Sue chose this month’s theme as it is her Word of the Year. I must say, she has definitely bloomed throughout the year. If …
I can’t believe we are already on the tenth of June! It honestly feels like we were just celebrating Nigel’s birthday in February. Life seems so much brighter these days. It’s funny how that happens. Nigel is now off the major pain meds, and the loopiness is gone (thank goodness). He still gets up several …
Welcome to another edition of Style Imitating Art! If you’re new to the blog, or just need a refresher, Style Imitating Art is a really cool idea pairing fashion with art. Last year, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that art, and share them on …
The 10 on the 10th is coming up. If you’d like to play along, I’d love to have you join in on the fun! There will be a link party, too! The lineup… From her Style Tips Series, Angie at Your True Self Blog has a new one to share: an easy way to dress up a black tee. It …
Week 108! We are now two weeks post-op. Nigel had his first appointment, and it went so well! He’s thrilled with the way his left hip is responding. Actually, I don’t know which one of us is happiest! He’s even beginning to talk about vacations next year! Friends, that’s a big one because he’d convinced …
