its been a long day.


no outfit post today..
i am wearing a dress today but no makeup and my hair looks like a bird's nest. 
so please come back on Thursday & i will look presentable.

but.
i was tagged by two beautiful ladies with a tagging game/quiz.
so i will entertain you with those, or i will try too.

first one is from the beautiful Marisa of ShadesofMonet 
(i <3 her. i believe that we are related someway, somehow.)

10 things i heart. no particular order

1) my husband.
    Robert the Magnificent.
    the man is truly amazing to put up with my personality & shopping habits for the last 9 years.
i love you booby.
  

2)  My Family.
     i really have no idea how i was so lucky to be given two wonderful parents that love me more than
     i can imagine.  plus, i have an amazing brother who drives me around because i am to scared to drive.

  
  
3) My best friends.
    I am not going to lie. i have many acquaintances/friends, but not many "friend"friends. 
    i only have myself to blame.
    i am horrible at meeting new people & most people usually get the wrong impression of me. 
    so thank goodness for my 6 best friends, because they made the effort and made me become 
    friends with them & never left me behind.
    my high school bff's
(mess, bert, and roy)

college bff's
(mosstang, misty, and jennifer)
                                 

4)  Cleo, my best BEST friend.
     she is my pound puppy. i use to be so scared of dogs before her. i was so scared of dogs that i didn't 
     go near her for the 1st month of having her, 
     but she changed my heart quickly with her loving licks and sweet eyes.
     i know she will not be with us much longer. (she 15 years old) i have no idea what i will do 
     when that day comes. i love her more than anything in this world. she has changed my life for the 
     better.


5) Dresses.
    i LOVE dresses. 
    i love all styles, all colors, and all era's of dresses.
    right now at the moment i love 1950's dresses, peter pan collars, and floral dresses. 
    i want these two dresses. please.





6) Books/reading
    thanks to my father i am a huge book nerd. 
    my favorite thing to do is go to the bookstore and sit there for hours and scout out different books
    that i want to read. 
    just a FYI, my favorite book is The Giver, by Lois Lowery & 
    my favorite authors are Margaret Atwood & Jane Austen.

7) Mail/Packages.
    i love sending & getting mail. 
    it is the best thing in the world,to go to your mailbox 
and see that letter that you didn't know that you 
    were getting. 
i <3 all my Pen Pals so much. xoox.

8) Pie/Cobbler
    it might be the Southern girl in me, but i LOVE pie/cobbler.
    no matter what season it is i love eating it. 
    cherry, blueberry, pecan, & blackberry are my weakness. 

9) Dr. Who. & British Literature Romance Movies.
    again, i am a HUGE nerd. i can not help it. 
    there is nothing to explain except it is a guilty pleasure. 
    i will be getting this Etsy find in the near future. 


    Etsy
    



10) Art.
      Painting was my saving grace in college. 
      I had the hardest time passing classes due to being dyslexic,
      but Art was always the one thing i knew i could pass & excel in.
      I get lost in Art. 
i love the Museums, i love Art History lectures, & i love painting my own creations.

  20. Love all of these, especially getting packages! Mail not so much. It seems as I get older, then less fun mail is. Getting bills isn't my idea of a good time. Now, ripping open a package, that's a totally different thing!
