April 2018

So yeah, still a slacker of a blogger here. I've spent the last hour trying to figure out how to get my free audiobooks off of the Overdrive app on my phone and onto my desktop. After a bunch of random clicking and mostly fruitless Google searches I think that I've managed to get those books onto my desktop iTunes. If the word free caught your eye and you are interested in YA audiobooks, just google Audiobook Sync. Every week they offer two free audiobooks that you can keep. In an effort to make the most of the free things offered by my library I also downloaded my five free songs of the week from Freegal using my library card. So all in all it has been a productive, and slightly frustrating morning. And I have waited too long to run my usual Monday errands without melting into a puddle since it is currently 98 degrees outside at 11:54 am. Add to that the fact that I own a black car and have no covered parking and it's probably 130 degrees in my car right now. Oh well, I guess I'll wait for the sun to set before going anywhere today. In the meantime here are the outfits that I wore in April and a couple of things that I bought. Yes, I did a tiny bit of thrifting a couple of weeks ago and I enjoyed it immensely.

Three Weeks in September

Hi there. With this post I will actually be caught up with outfit posts for the first time in weeks. After getting back from Vegas I have socialized every weekend but the last one, and for somebody who is as much of a homebody as me it's been fun but sort of exhausting. And in two weeks I am going to take my nieces to visit my Aunt and Uncle in New Mexico over Fall break. I think the next vacation I take will be an at home affair.

I noticed when I was looking up the "last seen" for what I wore the last three weeks that I tend to wear the same outfits withing a few days of each other. I'm not sure how this happens. Maybe some outfits subconsciously lead me to other outfits? I'm not sure why it happens, only that it happens with regularity. One of life's little mysteries that I never would have wondered about if I hadn't started this blog. And on that note, onto the clothes.
