WORKING OUT. not always fun. But good for you. Recently I've been trying to get into shape but also I've been really trying to feel good about myself and my body. One thing I've been thinking about is what I wear when I work out. I basically look like a slob. Gross old TShirts, old, pilly, work out pants. The clothes that you wear have an effect on how you feel, and you confidence for sure. I need new work out clothes! I don't like the way spandex and other sinthetic fabrics feel one my skin when I sweat. I like cotton! very simple, yet chic style

Retail Therapy




After a stressful day at work I made an unscheduled stop at target.... I know, thats probably not the best idea, especially for a gal who can barely pay her rent, but I spent a grand total of $22. And for those $22 I got two pairs of shoes, two red wire baskets, a spray bottle (for our new cactus named Helsico) a tin bucket, and a rectangular tin that I'm going to use as a herb planter. everything was on sale or in the $1 section. I got some white canvas vans-like slip ons and some silly red jellies (that were about $4!). I think it was the most budget friendly unnecessary shopping spree I've ever committed.

PS sorry the picture is sooo lame. I took it on my bed while I was in it... I'm feeling quite lazy.

Heaven is a Place on Earth!



I've come home! This weekend I was looking for a desk for my long awaited craft nook. And i stumbled upon the Holyoke Flea Market. Its Huge! Imagine a very large warehouse stuffed with about 500 vender's selling literally everything. It was wonderful! I've been looking for a good flea market since we moved out here and I have finally found one. I was also successful in finding a desk for only $30. I think I could have paid $20 but i'm a horrible haggler. the guy realized this and i think he felt a little bad so he threw in a free chair (which I don't want or need but it was nice anyway). The desk needs a coat of paint and is a little beat up but its perfect.


Sorry the picture is a little out of focus.
