Spring Finally

Blessings To All,

Wow is all I have to say.  I have not blogged in two months.  I am busy as usual.  I have been occupied with getting my offspring off to adulthood. Yes, my only daughter will be graduating from high school next week.  Her plans after high school are to attend college here at home and work in retail part-time.  My daughter is an artist by heart.  She paints, draws, plays guitar, and takes pictures.  Sounds like a jack of all trades; right? Well, I am trying to guide her the best way I know how without forgetting she will be an adult in a couple of months.  The hard part is trying to define the relationship of child to adulthood; while the adult to come is still living under your roof.  The only thing I can do is pray for wisdom during this transition.

It looks like spring is finally here in the big city; however, mind you, we had snow last week. I don't know whether to wear my mink jacket or windbreaker.  It has been really hard to dress with this flip floppy weather.  That explains why I have a slight sore throat and my co-workers have called off sick as well.  Just like life, we are not in control of the weather.

I have been playing around with the directions on how I want this blog to evolve.  Between planning for my daughters life journey; I am also helping my middle sister plan for her upcoming nuptials this fall.  Busy, busy, busy.  I am going to leave you with some of my favorite spring looks.  Until next time, many, many, many blessings.

Is Blogging Dead?

Hello To All. I have been missing in action from this blog since 2015.  I am the type of person that gets bored with things quite quickly.  I have a question for you today.  Is blogging dead?  There are millions of blogs out there covering everything from fashion, food, homes, wine, and etc.  With the fashion piece, Instagram has taken over the need to post a  blog about what a person is wearing and what the audience should buy. However, is it quite necessary to share with the world everything that a person does in their life. I am signing off with this open ended question; should you leave things to the  imagination?  Ponder on that question; will you. Until next time, many, many, many, blessings!

Happy New Years 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                               . Blessings to All,  It has been a long time coming for this post. The last time I blogged was back in May 2014.  Fast forward to January 1, 2015.  I am very happy to see another year.  I am so glad that 2014 is in the past.  Today is a time to look forward to new opportunities.  On my agenda this year is to get better and wiser.  I am on the path of eliminating baggage out of my life. I am very much interested in the minimalist movement.  A minimalist voluntarily simplifies their life.  It can include buying less things, reducing consumption, working less, and even eliminating toxic things from your life.  I always admired the Japanese culture.  They practice minimalism; however some may argue that is due ...

Dooney and Bourke Florentine Smith Bag in Royal Blue

Good Morning All, I have been enjoying this nice Chicago weather we have.  It has been around 70-80 degrees for almost two weeks now.  It is kind of creepy.  I went to Culver's yesterday to get one of my favorite treats, a three scoop lemon Ice and while in the drive through I see a big bumblebee.  Spring is definitely in the air.  I am waiting for the ball to drop.  Will we be getting 6 inches of snow in May?  Anyways, I got a new bag.  Well, I exchanged a bag that I had bought about two months ago for this bag.  It is the Dooney and Bourke Florentine Smith Bag in Royal Blue.  I had purchased this bag in white/tan for the spring and had a change of heart.  I like white bags; however, they don't wear well.  Eventually they will get some kind of color transfer from denim or they will yellow overtime. I have a Chloe and Marc Jacobs bag that did that.  Well, the bag in my opinion is not royal blue in person.  It is ...
