The first step

The first step is admitting I have a problem.
At some point this year I sat down and decided that I was going to bring my blog back to life and not abandon it like I had been.
But here's the thing. Once you start a bad habit, it's a pretty intense process to brake it.
I'll sit down to write and realize that CRAP, I haven't checked my Pintrest for half a day. People can post a lot of things while you sleep.
Or I'll dress nice for once and decide I should take a picture but realize quickly that I don't know what to do with my hands. So I go to pinterest and check what the ladies are doing with their hands in their pictures and OOH, cookies! I'll make those.


We're seeing a pattern here, right? PINTEREST and ADD are taking over my life.
In a good way, for the most part. It gives me ideas and makes me want to cook delicious dinners for my family and copy fashion bloggers and their saucy outfits, but it has also made me neglect the blog.

So here's an outfit. Because I actually got dressed AND put makeup on. And my inlaws backyard makes me look like I'm a decent at taking weird pictures of myself. and my dress has pockets, so my hands are taken care of.

Lets try this whole writing a blog thing again, shall we?

scarf- Kohl's, dress- Shade thrifted, belt-Kenneth Cole-Plato's, tights- Ralph Lauren TJ Maxx, boots-Target

Stores need to calm down!

I stepped into Target the other day
and found bikinis, shorts and tank tops
taking over the Women's department.
Why don't stores let us enjoy each season as it passes?
I hate winter and all,
but when it is snowing outside
and I'm wearing snow gloves and a marshmallow coat,
the last thing I'm considering is
fitting my large pregnant body
into any article of clothing that shows more than absolutely necessary.

So, Target,
Please let me try and enjoy wearing sweaters,
and covering my body from the cold weather
and stop reminding me that
1) I don't fit into bikinis
2) there is no sun outside to even try and wear one.

You know your husband loves you...

When he gets you a Snuggie for Christmas,

WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN ASK FOR IT,

after he recently declared to you that if you ever bought one

your marriage would end.

You also know you love him,

when you let him borrow it once in a while,

and you are willing to cuddle while you each wear a sleeve.

Love is a nasty and beautiful thing.

I'm a genious.

I made a discovery.

I can now wear jeans I haven't been able to wear for years.

Jeans that stopped fitting me but can't seem to get rid of...

Now since I'm pregnant I can just wear them with rubber bands!

Just wear flowy shirts to distract others from it.

and...BAM!

You got yourself a new wardrobe.

Plus, they most likely won't judge you if you're pregnant

because they'll think they actually do fit and sympathy

will be the only emotion they'll have towards you.

Being pregnant is pretty great.

Good Vibes Surround Me

Yesterday I found 2 CUTE shirts for 5 dollars.

Don't even ask me how.

I think it was my lucky day.

Or maybe it has something to do with the fact

that I visit TJ Maxx religiously.

...

But since I don't want to rain on my parade,

we'll just call it the luck of the Irish.

or Venezuelan.

This is What Happens When I am in a Good Mood

So maybe I just purchased this.

And maybe I am really giddy about it.

I mean look at it. And PLEASE look at the price tag.

It might make you jump up and down.

Or a desire to copy my findings might overtake you.

Just get it in a different color. They have a few.

I want it. All of it.

Yes, please.
