Let's Get Physical

Today's Fashion Challenge couldn't have come at a better time.   Today is all about showcasing a new(er) piece.  Luckily for me, I have been lusting over this cargo vest from Old Navy forevah-evah.  Especially when I saw it on this girl:

Angie from The Hotness Your Momma Warned You About

I swear sometimes I think we were separated at birth.  This girl will make you giggle till your sides hurt.

Anyway, I ordered this vest over a week ago and it just arrived in the mail last night.  I could not be happier.  I cannot wait to remix this vest all up and through the fall season.  

So, I've talked before about people who just don't get my style.  Today, it was not about my outfit, but my headbands.  I swear I was called Olivia Newton-John about 45619 times today (hence, the song and title choice for today).  Or I got the "didn't feel like doin' your hair, huh?"  Um, actually I put a little more pizazz into the hair laziness today.  Notice--I added an accessory in my hair.  Jerk.

Anywhosie, I am beginning to fall in love with this little slice of heaven I found to take my pictures in.  This is a little park on my way to work.  I have gotten great shots with trees, lakes, gazebos and now flowers just from this sweet little spot. 

It also helps that the sun showed its face again today.  Here I have been longing for the fall, and just as predicted, the second it gets chilly, I start missing my sunshine.  P to the S--let's take a moment to oh and aw over my pursed lips only a true hag could pull off below:

Pat's sister came over tonight with her mans and her kiddos.  One of the greatest thing about being with Pat is definitely his family.  I love to hang out with them and our kids are about the same age, so even in the frantic chaos, it is totally relaxing how they entertain themselves. 

Did anyone else know that Jupiter is now in retrograde?  I have only recently been tempted to research these phenomenon.   Supposedly, this means that this is a time of introspection.  It is a time for finding your inner peace and where emotions are most sensitive to coincidence and reason.

It is also a time for those who are really meant to be in your life either grow a stronger bond with you or resurface.  I have been lucky enough to have such a great experience with this recently.  I was so happy to be contacted coincidentally by several friends randomly reaching out to me.  One, in particular, I am very happy to be reacquainted with.  Bitch, you know who you are.  I love you.
