Well, we’ve got that over with! The Fourth of July, I mean! My poor Jack is scared silly by the fireworks, and people here love to shoot off those things. I’m pretty sure many of them were actually illegal in our state, but you know how that is! But, in happier news, July 8th was …
But, when I do… I wear something pretty doggone good! OK, technically, this may not be considered a neutral outfit. These are shades of sage green, but they’re pretty close to neutral in my closet. I think a neutral wardrobe is classy and rather timeless. I love seeing others in neutral colors. I also realize …
About Style Imitating Art… Style Imitating Art comes from Salazar, Terri, and Shelbee. You can think of it as fashion meets art museum! Style Imitating Art 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. Every other Monday one of the three …
Number 6 As I said in my Songful Style post (here), June was one of those months that just didn’t want to give up! It has fought for every minute of every day like there’s no tomorrow! Of course, there was the Summer Solstice, so we did actually have those longer hours of daylight. I …
10 on the 10th! You know how some months just seem to sprint by and others take the scenic view? Well, June definitely took the scenic view! But, July 10th will be here soon. This month, I’m using the “Would You Rather” format. I think it’s a fun way to learn about people. I was …
June is a good month, right? Here are a few interesting tidbits for your next trivia game! June is named after the Roman goddess, Juno, who just so happened to be the goddess of marriage, childbirth, and love…hmmm…in that order, do you suppose? Believe it or not, March and June end on the same day …
It all started in February… The kids bought Nigel a subscription (not sure that’s the right word) for his birthday. Basically, Storyworth sends you a question a week, a day, a couple of days a week, or a month. You respond to the question. Your responses are kept somewhere…haven’t figured that one out just yet. …
I hope it’s been as glorious in your part of the world as it has been in mine! We did have several days of rain and gloom, but the last few days have been sunshine and warm temperatures. Honestly, if it would stay like this for the next four or five months, I’d be happy! …
10 on the 10th! When I was teaching, I’m sure I regularly got on my students’ nerves! One of my pet peeves is grammar…specifically, the incorrect use of it (not that I’m entirely exempt from that). My kids would habitually ask, “Can I go to the bathroom?” Now, I want you all to know my …
Say what… If you think I’m going to bemoan the fact that it’s already April, think again! I’ve always liked April for many reasons. I think the biggest reason is because it’s when Spring starts to really appear here in the Midwest. Another reason is my mom’s birthday is in April as is my oldest …
