Mission #8, Day 5
This is the last nautical look for Mission Week. This dress was actually my mom's and she gave it to me a year or so ago.
These photos were taken last week--when everything in my life was "normal". I don't want to be dramatic or cause a scene like those annoying Facebook people looking for sympathy and attention but today will go down as one of the worst days in my life.
I don't want to say more than that right now. I am very lucky to have the support and love of my family and Patrick and the health of my children.
I will continue to post, I think, at least for now. As ridiculous as it may sound, blogging is kind of my outlet. Although I have thought numerous times over the past few days about giving it up for good or at least for a while, I don't think that would make me happier.
But bear with me. I think I'll post pictures, but I don't think there will be words with them. At least not until I can wrap my head around a few things. I will still be looking at everyone's blogs, but forgive me if I don't comment.
I appreciate everyone's patience and understanding at this time. It's a long, hard road ahead, but I know that eventually, I'll be ok. I just need some time. And if anyone wants to be the first to link up to Mission Week, the link is below.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
