DELETED!!

Funny story time...

Once upon a time there was this girl {yours truly} that decided she was going to work on herself, and try really hard to only see the positive of every situation, to find happiness, and love herself.  She worked really hard to do just that.  She read, studied, meditated, churched it up...tried just about anything to see the positive in all things, and find happiness and just be a better HER.  She truly wanted to be a better person.  Guess what!  It worked!  So much so, that she found out someone had deleted her on facebook!  The person said she was "too Pollyanna'ish and chirpy!"  Can you imagine such a thing?!  Ok, Ok, so I know the facebook world is not real... but, when you realize someone has deleted you... OUCH!  That kinda stings.  At first, I was kind of offended.  How could this person reject all my hard work!  Really?  But then, still seeing the positive in all things ... she came to realize ...
                                                     it. was. a. compliment. 
All that hard work HAD paid off.  She was happy with herself.  She got a good chuckle out of it and moved on. 

curious and curiouser

                                               Not even sure if that's how you spell curiouser
                                                                     - or if it's even a word -
                                                                                                             but I like it!


Have you ever noticed that when someone is mad at you they just ignore you? 

Just curious (and curiouser!) what not speaking is actually going to 
              accomplish? 
Honestly, I used to be that way too, BUT now, I'd rather talk, talk, talk...   
                                            get in out in the open and MOVE on! 
                          Life is just too short to not speak to someone you LoVe!

Moral of the story...   
                                           Ignoring = BAD     ~     Talking = GOOD

                                        SO, get out there and TALK!

'bout DONE!

So, this is my first post into the blogging world ... deep breath ... here goes!

                                                               On February 1st,
                                  my daughter (the LoVeLy and tAleNtEd ASHLEY!)
                 convinced me of the "benefits" of taking the 30 for 30 challenge. 
                                        Much to my chagrin, I agreed. 
                                                                 I was a nervous wreck! 
                                                          I mean...
                                                 I REALLY, REALLY
                                                             like ALL my clothes
                                                        and
        only being able to choose 30 pieces total to mix and match for a            
                                     ~full  ~
                                                                                          30 days... come on!  

                         That.is.a.big.challenge!!

Yes, every single day I have cursed taking this challenge..no lie.  But, here we are on day 24, and it's getting easier.  Not saying I'm eager to do it again any time soon, but I've learned a lot.  Mostly that I really don't know how to mix and match!  I've always considered myself a fashionista.  Always loved, loved, loved fashion.  But, reality check...I'm boring!  {gasp}  I know, I know, I was shocked too!
