Lot-O-Pink

If pink could breathe and were a man, I probably would be married to it by now! It is one of my many favorite colors and I was happy that it was finally chilly enough to wear my new blazer.

With fall coming and it getting dark earlier, leaves filling my yard and gusts of wind that can lift a 300 pound man off his feet, I felt refreshed with all of my pink on today :O) Whoever says bright colors are only for spring and summer...poo on you! You'll see me "bright" year round.

Blue: Take Three

Three days of blue? I didn't even realize I had so much blue stuff!

These shoes were a lot louder than I expected. They photograph as a deep royal blue, when they are more like a bright purplish-blue. Ah, well. I still love them and they are very comfy.

Welcome to My World!

First off, please excuse my background. My husband snapped this picture quickly (in the kitchen) before I headed out the door to work!

I am on an extremely tight budget. My husband and I have two toddlers, Alexa, 2 and Nathan, 3, so we really don't have much wiggle room when it comes to our budget. The idea we came up with is we each get a $300 "allowance" each month. We can do what we want with it, with no questions asked. No one needs to guess where a majority of my allowance goes! This pretty much forces me to shop lots of sales! Welcome to the world of the Penny Pinching Princess :)
