Apparently we spent this week just living our lives instead of taking photos, so you’re getting an assortment of images that weren’t necessarily intended for publishing (except Friday’s - I posted that one on the socials).

No photo, but it was a long church lady day - long service & then a council meeting. I still got to have lunch with Dad & Sue, so that was nice.

My Be Real for the day - back at work after vacation. Boo hoo!
Tuesday, August 12th
I bought these yoga pants for loungewear & decided to wear them to work before I messed them up. Look at that extra high waist - it’s almost up to my boobs (full disclosure, when I sit down it acts as a sort of secondary bra).
Wednesday, August 13th
No photo.

I finished that hideous square that I had frogged. This is a little better - still not as pretty as I would like, but at least it doesn’t make me cringe.

A Fast Fashion Tale of Woe. This was supposed to be linen. A friend asked if it was 100% badly printed on nylon and I said YES - it’s like wearing one of the flags we put on our door. Oof. (Also, if you embiggen it you'll see that it has these little white buttons instead of the hardware I was expecting for the straps. I'm going to be looking for some fun buttons to replace them with.)

Another BeReal - I’m sharing because I was impressed that I actually vacuumed the floor. Go me!
Our household is very close to being illness free! Dr. M still has a cough, but he hasn’t needed cough syrup in a couple of days. Will I now get to stop talking about our health? One can only hope (although of course I’ll report the results of my upcoming CAT scan).
I really like that jumpsuit. Never mind the fabric; the pattern and colors are wonderful. I like that area rug, too. It's very Mondian-like. I wonder if the manufacturers did that on purpose? It sure is good to hear that you and Dr. M are approaching full health. More of that, please!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the rug. Sue was getting rid of it not long after we moved down here & I was like GIVE IT TO ME. Ha!
DeleteI'm glad you're both feeling better. Why does it always take so long for a cold to leave?
ReplyDeleteI don't know, but it's very rude. Sort of like DT!
DeleteThis is why I don't buy clothes online sight unseen or tried on. And I had that reinforced when I bought a pair of capri leggings to support Haris and the medium I ordered and that's what the size was on the tag was more like extra large and they would not accept a return. I donated them to SHARE.
ReplyDeleteYeah - this is the second time I've been burned. It doesn't help that I still haven't figured out what size I am.
DeleteIf those overalls were supposed to be linen and they're not I'd send them back! But I suppose they came from China or some other not-easily-returnable place? I've bought shirts made with that crap nylon fabric before. Disappointing!
ReplyDeleteExactly - slow boat from China & no responses to my emails to them. Lesson learned!
DeleteYou look good in the yoga pants.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
