Random Wednesday

When I went to take these pictures, and got the tri-pod out, Baby Fox, ran to where I normally take the pictures, pushed all the strollers and toys out of the way and posed for the camera...he's such a ham!

Okay and now onto my outfit. You've seen me wear this shirt before, but I haven't done an official outfit post on it. So here it is.

Sweater - Old Navy, Pants - Ann Taylor Loft, Belt - White House Black Market (old), Necklace - Target, Boots - DSW

 

And now onto some Random Things:

Microwave Saga - They told us it would ship in two weeks, we finally wrote them and said we never got a shipping confirmation, they wrote back and said it wasn't going to happen for another 3 weeks at minimum. So we went out and bought a cheap microwave, we just couldn't do it any more...seriously, two weeks is one thing, but 6 weeks...a whole other story! It was so glorious to have a microwave again...I commend people who don't have one!

 I've been wanting to start a Valentine's project now for a week, but haven't mustard up the energy to do so, it just involves paint, what could be harder, nothing, so I'm going to start it tonight...by telling you guys I'm making myself accountable, so maybe, just maybe I'll get it done!

I got 7 hours of sleep last night and it was glorious! Note to self: when you get more sleep, you actually wake up refreshed and not ready to go back to bed. Must do that more often...

Speaking of sleep...you know you blog too much and stalk too many people when you start having dreams about them being in your everyday life. For example, last night I had a dream that I went to a mom's group and sitting there was Shanna! Just to let you know, she was just as nice in my dream as I would imagine she is in real life, and equally well dressed. I think she was wearing a red blazer and some sort of colored jeans and boots.

Happy Hump Day, I only have one more day left of work, woo hoo! Off on Monday, off on Friday, three day work week, I'll take it!

That Time I Wore Make-up

Okay, so it's not full on make-up, but it more then I do on a normal weekday. My thoughts on not wearing make up during the week, 1) I work with engineers, they could car less about what I wore or if I had make-up on. 2) I absolutely HATE taking it off, especially if it's a gym day, I don't want to be one of those girls who goes to the gym in full make up, but I'm too lazy to take it off. Plus I need to find a new eye-make up remover. I typically will use a waterproof eye liner, which always proves hard to remove, any of you have suggestions? 3) I wake up at 4:45am everyday, I get tired and sometimes rub my eyes...rubbing eyes with eye make up on is no recommended. Bottom line, don't get used to seeing me with make up on. But...I did actually go through a whole compact of foundation/powder from Mac, before it either broke or I lost it...so I'm getting better then in years past...I'm growing up...and stuff.

I decided to try out colored tights and the belt over the sweater thing, mostly because this dress is sleeveless and I really like it and wanted to wear it to the birthday party we went to on Sunday. That and my comfy jeans were dirty and I didn't feel like wearing my slightly uncomfortable jeans which requires me to wear really tall shoes so they don't drag on the ground to a 2 year old birthday party.

 Please excuse the lack of water in the fountain (no excuses we just took the water out because we weren't using it enough and it was starting to grow things) and the no plants in the background (just got our backyard re-done and need to save up money to buy the plants that go with it - you know how it goes with home improvement)

So it's not a lot of make-up, just enough to make me look put together and not tired, IMO of course

Dress -Old Navy (similar), Sweater - H&M, Belt - Target, Tights - Loehmann's, Boots - Jessica Simpson
