Well my computer messed up last night and I was unable to get my post done for this morning… Lucky me, my husband knows a computer guy and took it over this morning and got it back late this afternoon.  Fifty dollars later and we are up and running!  Yeah!    

I love a Boucle jacket!   You wouldn’t know that about me as I haven’t worn one yet on my blog… I purchased this too small in preparation of my weight loss from Chadwicks, two years ago!  I wore it open then… 

There is just something so classic and feminine about this  style jacket.   I have to say it really speaks to my feminine side.  The edgier side said, ” Add brown jeans with zippers running down the side!”  I’ve talked before about these Diane Gilman Jeans and that the zipper was covered and cold against my leg, so I wore tights.  Not this time and they were just fine!  

I have to say this coloring really looks good on me and is one of my favorites.  My most favorite thing is these shoes.. They are slingbacks and I hope to get lots of use out of these in the future.  Can you see me wearing them with a dress or skirt?  

Dear Readers, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  Mine is going to be full of taking extra photos for the blog in preparation of my week away.  I am also going to try on things and finalize what I am going to pack!  If you are in the north and had those blizzard conditions I hope you are hibernating and having quality family time!!!!

Gratitude:  Grateful that my husband jumped right on getting the computer fixed quickly.  Connor and I are grateful for a surprise day off from homeschooling since we had no computer… I am grateful for the funny conversation with my daughter when talking over things I plan to take on the Cayman Islands trip,  as she mentioned, “Mom you are really good at adding color, but you totally forgot to stock up on the basics!”  You see I bought Capris in bright colors at the end of the season last year in my goal size but didn’t get my favorite brown or basic black… In my defense I did get white!   I am Grateful that when I ran to Sam’s Club today that I bought the basics mentioned above and a bathing suit too!!
