I’m not a heel person, because I trip on flat surfaces and heels usually make me want to take them off, throw them against a wall and put on slippers. That aside, I found these cute kinda low heels by Sofft or is it Softt?) on Zappos and ordered them along with a [...]

I’d seen this photo of Madonna aka Esther
(pay attention, Beyonce or Sasha Fierce or Rainbow Sno-cone, whatever you’re calling yourself) and it reminded me of something else.
I couldn’t put my finger on it, then it came to me.

oh no you didn’t

Dear Beyonce (aka Sasha Fierce),
Stop it. What in the name of Wham are you doing? Did you somehow acquire a time machine and go back to 1992 and steal the motorcycle bustier from George Michael’s “Too Funky” video? I’m on to you, Beyonce.

RIP: my Molly Ringwald sweater

Last night I discovered my Molly Ringwald sweater was shrunken beyond small. At most, I may be able to wear it as a shrug, but I’m not holding out hope. This is a depressing day.

Trip wrap up

I’m back from the trip and taking today to relax a little and just hang out around the house.  Back to reality and Andrew climbing in our bed at night.  I thought y’all might enjoy a trip wrap-up.
We left Thursday at noon for Birmingham and thanks to Melissa’s lady (GPS) we didn’t get lost.  It [...]
