It's Okay ...

 

... Kitty is home!!

 

 

I was so upset last night when I went to bed and woke up this morning dreading my morning routine because Kitty is normally a part of it.  Just the thought of putting on my makeup and her not at my feet or up on the counter drinking water from the sink was enough to make me call in sick but I got out of bed ... went into the bathroom ... and then ... here strolls in a sleepy Kitty.  Seriously I pinched myself thinking I went back to sleep.  How?  When?  Where?  I picked her up and hugged her (she doesn't like to be held but whatever make mama sad you are getting a hug).  So I got ready thinking the whole time ... was she just hiding in the house somewhere?  She couldn't have been ... I searched EVERYWHERE ... a MILLION times.

 

I went downstairs and Paul was making coffee ... he acts like nothing is new ... so I say ... what the heck?  How is she back?  He's like oh I got up and slept on the couch with the door open ... she came home at about 3:30 am.  She came up to the door and gave one meow and I woke up slid back the screen and she came right in. 

 

 

Thank goodness she is home!

I guess she had a night out on the town ... good thing she is fixed!

Also, no more leaving the door open Paul!!!

 



Waiting for the Other Shoe to Drop

Have you ever just had a feeling something bad was going to happen?  Honestly, I've tossed and turned for nights ... had weird dreams ... and just had an overall feeling of doom.  Weird I know but I just couldn't shake the horrible feeling and then it happened ...

our cat is missing!  She's an indoor cat and has seriously never ventured outside more than a few steps.  Well somehow earlier today when Paul let Daisy outside Kitty must have slipped out and now she is gone.  I've walked the entire neighborhood looking for her and even check the road for fear of the worst.  No sign of her.  So I put up some signs in our neighborhood and I am hoping someone calls and says they have found Kitty.

Right now I am so upset.  What if she's gone for good?  It's such a sad and horrible thought.  

Seersucker Obsessed

So I am currently suffering with an obsession for a J Crew Seersucker Pencil Skirt.  I saw a cute outfit on tv with the skirt and thought OMG ... I have to recreate it.  I have the shirt equivalent to said outfit but alas no seersucker.  So I have been on the hunt and I found a skirt on ebay ... sounds great right?  Well I feel like the seller is asking a bit much for a USED skirt.  She wants $40 which isn't horrible for a J Crew find if the great find was actually at J Crew and/or at J Crew Factory.  But regardless it is still cute and what I have been obsessing over so I thought ....  maybe I could validate the purchase with coming up with a few more ways to wear it.

So what do you think?  I should buy it?

What are you currently obsessing?

See Spot Fun

Gingham, Stripes, Polka Dots and Bold Colors - OH MY!

 

So I started off with a polka dot pencil skirt and chambray top and thought ... I can do better than this! I love polka dots so I thought why not give them the props they deserve and try to make a fun statement while I was at it.

What do you think?

I hope you all have a fab weekend!

It's Okay Thursday!

 

It's Okay ...

 

to take a break from blogging ... kinda like Spring Break for the mind.

 

to feel guilty when you don't blog ... it's natural ... because we care!

 

to have seen Sally Hansen Nail Effect French Manicure and what them to go on sale at Ulta!

 

to be obsessed with this watermelon licorice I found at the Dollar Store.  Seriously sooo yum!  I hate that waxy taste of Twizlers ... this kind has none of that!

 

to not want to wear any jeans unless they are skinny jeans ... seriously I think the reason why I have never worn/liked to wear jeans is because I didn't know how fab skinny jeans were ... I think they are amazing and look amazing on me.

 

to have been in like a zombie like state all week from lack of sleep due to Downton Abby marathons everynight - we have officially seen EVERY episode and now hurry up with Season 4.

 

to never read a magazine now without trolling for blog post ideas.

 

to have moments when I think my wardrobe is fabulous and other moments when I think I hate everything I own.  Don't we all?

 

that my friend mentioned the pool the other day and I can't even wrap my head around that yet ... seriously is the 30 degree mornings finally over?  I know it sounds crazy to complain but 30 in the morning then 90 in the afternoon is not cool!

 

to have no weekend plans and totally digging it.  I just want a weekend of naps and relaxation!

 

that I taught our cat to drink out of the bathroom sink.  Seriously she is a diva about her water dish - she won't drink out of it - just the dog's dish which is basically the same as hers.  Anywho, I figured Kitty Priss couldn't snub fresh water ... she loves it.  However, she has failed to realize that all sinks do the same thing.  She will only drink from the master bathroom sink ... sigh.

 

to be totally happy that Mad Men is back on Sunday!  Love it!!!

 

So what's okay with you today?

 

Ugh Monday

 

So I am at lunch reading Marie Claire and sipping on much needed coffee. Don't judge me on the size - I had a reward so I just had to get the venti!

I hope you all had a nice weekend. Paul and I watched basically all of season 1 and 2 of Downton Abby - we signed up for hulu plus just so we could catch up. Loving it and yes we are cool like that showing up super late to the party. We tried put it on hold at the library and we were like 282 in the queue! Insane! Unless season 3 happens to be on demand we will be waiting awhile cuz we are 51 on that queue - why aren't all the seasons on hulu plus isn't that the purpose of hulu let alone hulu plus that you have to pay for?
