26 Days

Well, I survived Valentine's Day sans Lake, it was tough, but I really do have great friends & an awesome brother, sister in law & god daughter! I spent the weekend in Little Rock with my brother's family & I even got to babysit little Maryn on Saturday night so that my brother & sister in law could go out for Valentine's Day. Last night I got back from Little Rock & went to have dinner with some of my best friends at Brasserie Pavil. A very yummy french restaurant here in SA, it was so good! We had a super fun time & I'm convinced that we had way more fun than anyone else there! haha.


Lake is doing well in India, I'll see him in 26 days, which can't get here soon enough! I leave on March 12th at 1:15 p.m. Lake & I are planning on going to Delhi to see the Taj Mahal & maybe to Singapore right before I come back on the 20th. The next big feet that we need to make it over is being away from each other on March 1st, which is our 2 year anniversary. I guess we'll just celebrate Valentine's Day, our anniversary, & Lake's birthday (March 24th) all during the week while I'm there, that'll be fun! :o)


As far as my fashion challenge is going, it's been really fun actually! I'm enjoying trying to figure out new ways to put stuff together, so definitely enjoying being creative! I've only run across one top that I couldn't figure out & plus I thought it was a little too tight on me, so yeah, of course I'm only one week in, so we'll see how it continues to go.......

The Great Fashion Challenge...

so Lake's gone & I'm really sad & it's been really hard, so I'm not going to focus my blog on that. All I'll say is that we're both missing each other & we both can't wait till I go visit on March 12th, I'll see him in 32 days! :o) He's doing well & enjoying his adventure & I'm so happy that he's having a good time.

Here's a link to some of his pictures:

So, I left work early today b/c I was feeling awful, migraine, coupled with stomach ache, along with an itchy throat left me exhausted & just not feeling well, at all!!! I left after my 3rd period class was over, so around 11:40, I stopped at Target to get a heating pad & then got a sandwich at Cosi & came home to rest. I tried to nap, but it wasn't really happening, so I decided to go through my closet & get rid of old stuff that I don't wear anymore & donate to Goodwill. While I was going through my stuff, I kept hearing Lake in the back of my head saying you always go shopping, you have so much stuff! I was looking at my closet & there's lots of stuff that I love & I know why I bought it, but I just don't wear it too often....so...here's my plan.......

I'm going to go through my closet, one top at a time & make an outfit out of it, if I can't make an outfit "work" then I'm giving the top to Goodwill for someone else to fall in love with! :o) I figure, it's a win win, someone gets a new top for an awesome price & I have more room in my closet......for more stuff! haha j/k, well, sorta ;o)

Well, I'm off to build my first outfit for work tomorrow. I figure I'll also boost my creativity, which is also fun! So that's what I'm doing while Lake is gone......along with working out, watching my shows, keeping the house clean, cooking, & hanging out with the girls! :o)

Little Rock & Maryn time this weekend!

Happy Valentine's Week everyone!
