New Friends

I have been posting outfits for the past who-knows-how-long, actually I could figure it out, I'm just too lazy to do it. This is what I've been wearing...and old pair of workout pants that I've cut off one of the legs to fit my cast and then comfy clothes...

Last night I actually got dressed up and went to dinner with friends, but of course forgot to take an outfit post when I got home...This is actually what I wore:

But I finally got to add my coat that I bought at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale in July of 2014!!!

Yes it's blurry, yes they really are that much taller than me, yes the girl in the middle is slouching. Good news on the coat, they have one very similar* on sale! Only $34, but it says sale ends today! It's super warm, and soft, great peacoat in my opinion. So glad that I got to take it out on it's debut outing, even if it was just 54° out.

Anyway, today is one of those days where I went to write a blog post and came up completely empty so I went to pinterest to find a quote...this one spoke to me. I am not a writer...hence why I'm an engineer and use words like hence in a sentence twice. I don't have eloquent words flowing out of me...so I figure take this quote how you see fit in your life.

Right now in my life, this quote feels like it applies to friends. I have been having issues finding friends in my mom life. I feel like it's so hard to find them once you leave college. We moved out here with a really good friend and her husband,  I don't know what happened but now we rarely talk...anyway...after we stopped hanging out as much, I really thought there are other people in my life that I really love spending time with, so I made an effort to hang out with them, text , call and really get to know them. I am so happy that I went out of my comfort zone and "took another shot" at making friends. You are never too old to make new close friends and make new memories with great people, who I wouldn't have probably gotten to know so well had that negative thing in my life happened. Do I miss that person? Yes terribly, but until she's ready to get over her issues, I'll be here with open arms, but won't be dwelling any more or letting the negative things affect my life.

Wow that got a little more serious than I thought, based off a random quote I found, and probably doesn't make sense to you, but hey, I feel better. So thanks for listening/reading my random rant of the day!

Happy Hump Day Peeps! I have 5 more days of this pink cast of mine! Woo hoo! At least I hope, I really hope I'm not that person that they say...oh so sorry, you're in it for another week...NOOOOO!!!! No that won't happen, it can't happen, Mama has Christmas shopping to do!
