They'll be peace when you are done

Lots of blue and white and green sparkles today, which is good.

These bracelets make a little tinkling sound when you wear them. Which I love! When I was in high school, around Christmastime, I would tie a jingle bell on a ribbon to one of my shoes and wear them every day. I wonder how many teachers I really annoyed, but I loved walking the halls and hearing the jingle. I guess some things never get old!

I need to talk myself into spending the money on a haircut in the next couple days. I got out of the habit with house buying, and that's been good for no one. Time to get back in the swing on that one.

See the awesome unfinished edge on my skirt. I just sewed a line around it, rather than actually hemming it. I love the strings hanging down, and the fact that the cut is not completely straight. A little edgy, eh?

Happy Friday!

I'm gonna soak up the sun while it's still free


Can you see how I'm still working on the cheesy factor when taking pictures of myself? Oh yeah. I could maybe tone that down a bit.

This outfit was all about the H & M, that delightful store found in large cities around the world. There's just something so compelling about it. And what I'm wearing even includes H & M clothes from different locations.

Type 1ism of the day: it turns out that I've always loved "beach towels." You know the brightly colored ones with pictures of fruit, cartoon characters, or the ocean. Well, as I was getting out the shower this morning and drying myself off with my Koolaid towel (which I collected enough Koolaid points to redeem!, circa 1995), I love beach towels! They are perfectly Type 1!
