Saturday started as usual – feed and play with the dog, head to yoga, and then had tea at the local cafe with my mom and hubby to talk about our week. Ran a few errands. My sister and my husband’s friend came over and we hung out until the evening, when we headed to…
You know those days where you hate everything in your closet and you hate your hair and you just look at your clothing and get frustrated and consider going to work in sweats? Yeah, that was me this morning. I got a coupon for J. Crew and ordered a dress from them. It arrived yesterday…
