Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday
Today we officially open the pool for the season and despite the cold temps, Pool Care Specialist will be onsite to reassemble the parts and add the necessary chemicals. Every year I think about purchasing a better pool cover so that the water won’t be too dirty when opened in the Spring. It’s been over 10 years and I still haven’t gotten it but thanks to the mild winter it doesn’t look too bad and by Memorial Day weekend it will be sparkling clear.
We definitely will be getting a new Solar Cover because there is nothing worse than jumping into cold water!

Hello Friends and Happy Monday
After a wonderfully warm weekend the temperatures have reversed course and fallen back into Autumn, dropping down into the 30’s and 40’s! Yesterday I was in shorts preparing for the pool opening and today I am wearing fall clothing – this is crazy. The forecast calls for 80 degrees by Thursday so we will be going from sweaters to sleeveless tanks in less than a week, I don’t remember Spring temps being up and down like this – do you?

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday!
It has finally happened, Winter is officially over and based upon the temps for the next few days so is Spring! If you live in the MidAtlantic area you know that we went from the cold-in-the-low 50’s on Saturday to the hot-in-the-mid 80’s today, all I can say is “bring it on”! I love the warmer temps, not intense heat but warm enough to wear only one layer of clothing and a wrap dress is perfect. If you follow me on Instagram you know that I twisted my knee doing Zumba and haven’t been able to wear heels, needless to say, I’m not happy. I did pose in them this morning but had to go straight to the flats to lessen the pain.
What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods?

Hello Friends and Happy Thursday, hope your day is going well.
Having Tuesday off from work has me a day behind mentally which may not be a bad thing because tomorrow is FRI-YAY!!!! It was somewhat depressing reading through the blogs last night, seeing all those beautiful and colorful maxi dresses and wishing for warmer days instead of dealing with these cold Winter winds. This morning we were greeted with snow showers…really Mother Nature – c’mon Spring!
In these pictures I may be smiling but I’m definitely not excited about these outfits, I want to shed the layers!

I had hoped that tomorrow the weather would be warmer but most likely it will be a “50’s Friday” Oh well, the temps will eventually increase but until then I will be wearing clothing from the winter wardrobe.
Have a fantabulous afternoon and don’t forget to check out the FB Page “Bloggers4JCPenney” – there are some great new postings.

Hello Friends and Happy Monday, I hope you had an enjoyable weekend.
I had an online weekend…reading and commenting on Blogs…updating status’…tweeting….Instagraming…Sverving…and…creating a Facebook Campaign, “Bloggers4JCPenney“. There were several bloggers who liked the concept and submitted their posts, I hope you’ll check it out and do the same.
Saturday, I received my first Influenster VOXBOX, and will be posting a review later this week. Sunday, I went to church, wore green and cooked CornBeef, Cabbage and Potatoes for St. Patty’s Day. Tomorrow #1 son has an interview at Bank of America, he and I will be meeting his DVR job coach at 1:00. The job market is tough made even more so when you have a disability so please say a little prayer for him.
We were all hoping for another warm weekend but it seems like ‘ole Man Winter is back for one last hurrah! Wednesday is officially the first day of Spring so I’m mixing in a little bright colors with today’s all black outfit.
Are you planning a special “1st Day of Spring” outfit or will you wait until it gets warmer?

Getting ready for the warmer and brighter days of Spring!

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
Believe it or not we got snow flakes this morning, it was nothing major just some spritzing, but I do hope it was the last for the season. I feel sorry for hubby because the year after the big snow storm of 2010, he used his credit card to purchase a snow blower from Sears…it’s been sitting in the garage collecting dust as he continued to pay the high interest charges!
It took me a little longer to dress this morning because what was forecast on Sunday changed and it was too cold for my dress. I ended up grabbing this two-tone skirt and polka dot top then added a little bling to jazz it up. I didn’t wear hubby’s watch to work just used it for the pictures, definitely too much.

The grass is getting greener – next week is Spring – please no more snow!
Are you a minimalist when it comes to jewelry or do you like to Bling Bling?

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
3.13.13 and it’s still Winter but Spring is right around the corner and I’m frantically trying to wear as many of my winter clothes before it’s officially over!
You may remember when I wore this skirt with brown booties in November (here), but today I chose to wear it with beige pumps to lighten it up a bit.
I would also like to thank my Bloggy friends who co-signed on Tuesday’s Testimony, when we are of one accord blessings pour down like rain!
Don’t ever be afraid to testify – you never know, it might help somebody!
I love this brush suede skirt because it’s style is fashionable for a woman of my age and it fits to a “T” with a perfect length. So glad someone donated it to the GW Boutique (Goodwill). I am going to say the same for these pumps which are also classic in style and just the right heel height because I might cut back on higher heels…NOT!
