80-20 Living: Hanging In There

Hi there. So Fiona decided that it is not time for her to go yet. Her demeanor and behavior vastly improved after her last draining. We are still taking it day by day and her paws are joining her tail in becoming hairless but she's excited to see people again. The GH had a medical procedure last Friday so it was a pretty chill and uneventful weekend around here. I have been focusing on the never ending tasks of cleaning and decluttering. It never ceases to amaze me how much dust can accumulate in such a short period of time. Ah, the joys of living in the desert. Speaking of which it is actually supposed to get cold this weekend! Highs in the 50s, woohoo! Maybe I will get a chance to wear all of my extra warm sweaters at least once this season.

In two and a half weeks I will be back in Las Vegas celebrating the 21st birthday of the first child in my group of high school friends. How have 21 years gone by so quickly? My Mom managed to snag the two of us tickets to see Cher on the 31st and we will all be doing high tea at the Mandarin Oriental on the 2nd. I haven't been out to a club in Vegas for a few years so that part should be interesting. I will also be missing Jennifer a lot, since she should have been there too. The older I get the more it seems that with celebration comes sadness. Loss seems to be felt more keenly during times of joy. And now I will stop being philosophical and get on to last weeks outfits.

January 9 - Dresses with pockets are the best!
