It was so very cold & windy outside when I took these photos that I forgot to 1) Take my hands out of my pockets, 2) Take any close up shots, 3) Properly anchor my tripod, so it blew over the SECOND I let go and turned my back. Everything is ok though, because it toppled over into some nice soft mud. Everything still works and is relatively clean. You can tell it is very windy because OMG MY HAIR. It’s exactly the right length to look SUPER CRAZY when it’s windy but not yet fly into my face. Which I think is the worst length because I almost never self aware enough to know that my hair looks crazy.

A nice middle aged guy at work told me he ‘liked my mocassions’ I almost said ‘actually they are boat shoes’. But instead I said ‘Thanks!’. I love it when middle aged guy complement something I am wearing it seems so out of character for them. But they also seem to love my red boots, and an awesome pair of metal rainbow-circle-earrings that I can’t seem to find any pictures of.

I’d pinned a pair of pink little-girl boat shoes really similar to these some time ago. Then I spotted these on Amazon (because Amazon creepily always knows what I’ve been looking at lately) and I meant to hit ‘add to cart’ so I could leave them there for a little while and think about it wait for them to go on sale. Instead I hit the ’1-click shopping button’ and the shoes were on their way. Curse your convenience Amazon.  When I got them and had NO idea what to wear them with. After the nice complement I’m pretty sure I am wearing them ‘correctly’.

I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. Curly-haired-boy and I spent a good deal of it curled up on the couch watching Downton Abbey, which is AWESOME. My mother told me so. But really, who believes their mothers when she talks about TV shows? I will put more faith into the next things she suggests.
