So What?

So what if I didn't get everything done on the list I made today at work?
So what if the twins went to bed an hour later if it meant taking Cherub in the jogging stroller for some QT with him and a family (foster though it may be) dinner with John and the twins, and they enjoyed a beautiful WA spring evening in the backyard with Jill while John grilled?
So what if I'm going to bed later than I planned if it meant watching "The Office" with John?

What matters is that we had a lovely evening with happy twins. Let the madness of their case swirl around us.  Their lives will be peaceful and happy.

I Won!!!!

I won a Shabby Apple dress in Betty Beguiles give away!!!   Today brought some foster care news that was unexpected and unwelcome, so this bright spot in the day is most appreciated.

Check out Ms. Beguile's blog as well as Shabby Apple.  Still need to figure out what dress I'll pick.

Woo-hooooo!!!!!!!!!!

Shabby Apple

For anyone who loves pretty dresses and finds it difficult to locate pretty AND modest dresses that drip with style, check out Shabby Apple.  They have a new line out called Skyscraper.  It is hard not to drool over these dresses....and the shoes that the models wear.  I really like this one. I really like all of them.

I promised myself that if I keep up my exercise and healthy eating and get through the 1/2 marathon, I can get a pair of Mary Jane high heels--green, preferrably. Or maybe a pair of beige heels.




It's funny how things get done (running wise) when I have the motivation of a new pair of shoes (TJ Maxx, here I come.).  My rule is  that when I buy a new pair, I have to get rid of a pair in my closet.  I know just which ones, too.  There will be lots of shopping in my closet this summer--wearing cute summer clothes (hence, lots of running and weights so that I actually CAN wear them) that I haven't worn in a couple of years, and having a dress shortened so that it doesn't scream 1998, but rather classy chic and always in style.
