On this day

shirt forever 21 | skirt Loft | shoes Target

I ended up in an unforeseen situation in which wearing heels and a skirt was not a good idea. So naturally I wore this outfit on that very day.

Just imagine me in front of an office building with a baby strapped to my front, looking down at a box on the ground that was full of computer parts. Pure entertainment for the people watching me in the full wall windows, I'm sure.  After about 10 minutes of that circus, a kind soul offered me help. He made my day by picking up that box, and then one upped me. He told me I was gorgeous. That's not a word you usually just throw around, ya know? It just made me feel great.

So go tell some wild Mom she's gorgeous. Girl needs to hear it, I'm sure. 

Awkward and Awesome Thursday!

shirt and heels: target, jean leggings: forever 21, watch: meggie's love, necklace: american eagle

Awkward:

-Thinking you're part of a conversation that you're actually not. I'll just go run away to my bike now, thanks.
-How angular/ungraceful my Zumba moves are. I'm great at the robot?
-Listening to my backyard neighbor blast his own flavor of backcountry rock music. But he's not there. So just for me then? Okay.
-Not knowing what you want for a hair cut when you sit in the chair. Uh, I have no plans. Ever.
-Tripping on your own heels at work, then laughing at yourself. Then realizing no one saw you but now they are watching and wondering why you're laughing.

Awesome:

-Not caring how bad I am at Zumba and going for the first time last night. Zumba > running. Any day!
-Getting my watch from Meggie's Love. I love love love it.
-The cut of this shirt, which is why you were quite very blessed with a bum shot. Yep.
-My neighbor's friend's explanation of Zumba: "it's just like school dances" only it's not. It's way better.
-Still getting a fabulous hair cut and color even though you have no plan. Which is why I return time and again. And for the laughs.
-"Just a Kiss" by Lady Antebellum. Can't stop listening to it.
-The mystery date that my Mister has planned for us tomorrow night. I'm supposed to wear comfortable and pretty clothes. Any guesses what it is? I have ruled out hiking, sky diving, and meeting Kate Middleton.
-Our dinner which was cottage cheese. With a dash of pepper. We're 80. Oh wait, was that awkward? Let me introduce you to my box of All Bran.
