Today was one of those days. Where you just are and you're not self conscious and you love life. Where you feel fulfilled. We went to a brunch at one of our favorite places and while it was a surprising disappointment both food and service wise the conversation was great, and I just felt happy to be right there in that moment.
Then it was off shopping. I picked up a nail color for my first 5 lbs (not met yet, I don't think, but G's to hold onto it for me), along with baubles, and an ink well taper holder (on clearance at Anthropologie), and a jacket at Ann Taylor that was $195.....I got it for $25! It fits okay now, but it's a size 8 and will be much better in a couple months. I've been avoiding shopping lately because I'm positive the weight is coming off so I don't want to buy anything that will be useless or have to be sized down in a couple months, nor do I want to buy anything too small and then stress about fitting into it. But this I could get into and then get it zipped up so I figure it's fine, especially for such a simple cost.
Then more coffee with G while we discussed the direction our home is going to go in. It's a huge topic right now since a lot will be acquired while he's gone, and I want us to be in agreement so he doesn't come home and think, "Where did my home go?" We discussed possibly buying a ladder to actually paint before he leaves, along with a bunch of huge projects we're undertaking, like possibly building our own bookcases instead of buying the IKEA ones. And building a bed base to attach a tufted headboard to.
You know who has a very nice low-price tufted headboard? Target. Take a look. Don't want to discourage your DIY but they do have one that looks high-end at a low end price.
ReplyDeleteYour day sounds lovely.xo
The jacket sounds really nice - how about a photo? One for now and one in a few months to see how gorgeous you look then??
