Money's Too Tight to Mention



When I was a freshmen in college, we were having a recession, Ronald Reagan was President and that fall, this song seemed to be the song playing on our floor in Arnold Hall.  

It's pretty apropos lately, too.

This Charming Handbag


I have broken down and ordered myself some calling cards.  I've been thinking about it for a while and I finally pulled the trigger last week.

These are the modern square calling card from Pixel Impress over on Etsy.  Pam is a friend of a friend and I am so glad she's making these for me.

Of course you all know that now I have to buy some sort of a card holder to put the cards in and then I'll but the card holder in my handbag. I think the main appeal of having calling cards is that it's one more thing that I can put in a handbag.  

Kate Spade is the leading card holder contender right now.  My ability to spend money is staggering!

Happy Monday


Hi!  I hope everyone had a great weekend!

I enjoyed my family and the Jake very much and my soon to be new nephew, whose name is Liam, has been outfitted with a proper nursery outfit from Pottery Barn Kids. 

Sunday I didn't feel good and woke up with a stomach ache sometime in the night and was squicky for most of the day.  Around 3 I went to get my toes done and am happy to report they are now presentable. 

I have court today (every Monday's business, I suppose) and then a blessedly appointment free week.  I am getting a facial tonight (YAY!) and I can't wait.  I am blessed with the most incredible facialist (and dear and darling friend) and seeing her is always a quadruple treat of happy for me.  And it is very good that I'm seeing her because I am having head shots taken on Friday. 

I know that some people enjoy having their pictures taken but I rank it right up there with trying on bathing suits and root canal.  I am determined to take a decent picture, though and the photographer is going to do my makeup which also makes me happy.  I need a head shot for work (more later) and she's going to do some fun shots, too, and I hope some of them will turn up on the blog. 

So thanks to everyone for dropping by, let's hope for a great week!

Happy Friday!


Hi! 

It's Friday. 

Isn't that a wonderful sentence? 

It's.  Friday.

Yay!

Just a quick post to to tell y'all to have a great weekend.  My sister, brother-in-law and charming nephew, the Jake, will be visiting me this weekend and we are doing small child oriented things.  This is always interesting for me, since I rarely do small child oriented things.  We're supposed to have great weather, so I think it will be fun.  Oh, and don't ever tell the Jake that I referred to him as a small child.  He's 7 1/2.  That's old. 

So have a great weekend and enjoy the beautiful fall weather.  Drink a toast to John Lennon on his birthday. 

And I'll see you on Monday.

October 9 would have been John Lennon's 70th birthday.

Rest in Peace.
