October 16-31 Outfits

 I actually wore real clothes some of these days too but no pictures. These are October 20, 21, 22, and 23.

 Half marathon outfit. Man that belt makes the outfit look less cool

The teal top and the color blocking top are new. The purple top is a little wide but it was the smallest size they had. I started buying tall tops online at JCP hoping they'd work. 2 of 4 worked.

September 1-15 Outfits

 I only took my picture 1 time using my tripod and good camera. I miss the days when I took pictures all the time like that.
I wore the same shirt on the 3rd and the 8th. That's becoming one of my favorite shirts.

9-10

 I had on my turquoise shorts

the 9/11 picture is actually a screen  capture of myself right before my dancing video.

August 16-31 Outfits

8/16, 8/19, 8/20, 8/22 (Ella is in 8/20 outfit)

 No repeats in this collage. Yay.

8/23

 I rarely wear these shorts. I need to be braver and wear them more.

8/24, 8/27/ 8/28, 8/30, 8/31

It looks like I wore the same top 2 days in a row but really I am missing a day of my daily picture. 4 different shorts out of 5 pictures. Not bad.

July 16-31 Outfits

I barely ever take my daily picture. I take it with my iphone now instead of my good camera when I do. I'm a real slacker.

 There are many days I'm in my workout clothes all day. I really like a few of my workout clothes like those pants on 7/20 so maybe I should just take my daily picture in those workout clothes.

I wore this to a play date. I was so hot that I was always pulling up the skirt. That's happened the last 2 times I wore it. I guess I need to wait until it cools off a little.

7-23, 24 26, 27

 This collage shows 3 of my 3 new workout tanks I bought in the past few months. I want more new tops. The capris are also new.  The top is blue on the 26th but the picture is bad.

7-28

Ella and I sort of matched. Ella's purple was prettier. We both had on black spandex shorts.

November 16-30 Outfits

I got dressed more than this but again I'm a picture slacker.

11/19

 I wore my shooties!  I don't actually like these jeans but I wore them. They are bunched in the back because that's how they are made. They have creases like they drag and bunch up but it's part of how they were made. Stupid! But I didn't notice when I bought them.  They are from 2008 or so.

11/20

11/21

 This long sleep faux wrap is pretty nice. Easy for nursing.

11/23

I didn't actually get dress but I took pictures with Ella for her monthly photos so I included them.

11/26

 Look at that picture on the right. Ella's leg sure slims my waist line!

11/28

I sort of coordinated with Ella! She has green in her shirt. That big purse is my new "diaper bag" and I wear it across my body not just on my shoulder. I love it. I just got it. Ella helped pick it out. It's great not having a diaper bag slide off my shoulder.

Ella likes to steal my remote so it makes pictures difficult.

I liked that  I got to wear skinny jeans + boots again. Sometimes it's cool enough. So I guess that's my favorite outfit. But I actually like  them all but the one where I'm just in a nursing tank.

VS Yoga pants. AE shirt

I cleaned up a bit for my parents visit. I should have cleaned up more but instead I talked on the phone to my mom and watched TV. I did push some boxes from the floor into the closet (top and bottom picture on the right show the progress).

For lunch I had potato chips and thawed out stuffed pepper soup. Man that soup was good. I forgot how good it was. I think it was tastier now when I didn't spend all the time cooking it.  I took the container out of the freezer the other day and then had it thaw in the fridge. I heated it up on the stove. I added some water because it seems it gets extra thick after I freeze it.

I cooked dinner too.  I didn't want to cook. I think I'd rather clean than cook.

Shirt: AE, Pants: Express, Necklace: Charlotte Russe, Jacket: NY&Co, Purse: Target

I hung out in bed in the morning like always. Poly always hangs out with me. I think that's the only time of the day she pretends to like me.

I went to google for lunch. We tried the newer cafe that I hadn't been to.

I got Pizza Hut for dinner. They messed up my order and sent my pizza out on a delivery. They offered me the wrong one but I didn't want stuffed crust. So I waited for a new one to be made. While waiting the TV was on and I half listened but clearly didn't pay attention because after about 5 minutes I realized it might not have been in English. After another 5 minutes I confirmed it was not in English. It was in Spanish and it was some version of ESPN.

My feet hurt. My left foot hurt because of my toe. My right foot hurt because of my plantar fasciitis.

Google for lunch. The Mexican cafe is my favorite. Their cheese is awesome.  They have other foods that vary like burritos but I love the chips n cheese so much.

Yellow Skinny Jeans

I've had yellow skinny jeans for a little over 6 months and have only worn them a few times. Granted in the summer I wore mostly shorts and they were also too big for awhile.  The outfits to the left are actual outfits I've worn with my skinny jeans.  Well the white tank top outfit is actually just  me trying on new clothes I bought at the store that day.  What outfit is your favorite? Mine is the bottom right with the orange and yellow but with the white cardigan so it's not so orange/yellow.

The trouble I have with my skinny jeans isn't so much what top to wear with them but what shoes. (I mean I still have a little trouble with what shirt to wear but not as bad as when I first got them.)

I tried doing a google image search for some ideas but most of them are impractical. I want to wear shoes with my skinny jeans that I can handle walking to and from Target in. The dressy pumps shown below might not be comfortable enough for that.

Below I tried a few different shirts, some different accessories, and different shoes.  What do you think? Would you wear bright yellow jeans in the fall?  I feel like I should be wearing more fall colors like browns and mustard but the only colorful jeans I have are bright yellow so that's what I'm working with.  

I miss being able to go out on my front porch and leave the camera there while I took some pictures.  Each time I came back in the apartment today I felt odd leaving my camera out in the hallway so I brought it back in half the time.  I was uneasy most of the time. Good thing I took a few pictures with each outfit because I was not smiling in half the pictures.

Shirt: American Eagle, Pants: F21, Sandals: Kohl's, Necklace: Sears

I didn't wear the outfit for long because as soon as I started cooking, I got sauce on my clothes.

I woke up close to 9am. I started waking up at 6am but kept going back to sleep.  I went to sleep so early that my body just wanted to wake up.  After I got up, I blogged and cropped pictures for 2 hours.   I had a few draft posts but needed the pictures to go along with them. I took care of those. I also cropped pictures for my calendar site. Now September is updated. I still have to finish October.

Dave was home sick but he spent most of the day in bed.  I watched some TV. I ran.  I called my mom to ask a quick question about hot sauce and then talked to her for over an hour.  I went to Safeway.

I cooked Stuffed Pepper Soup. It was good.  The rice was my least favorite part. I should have made more rice. I forgot how my mom used to make extra rice that I'd put into the soup. I also like my soup thicker than normal so I didn't put as much water in when making it.

We watched TV.  We went to sleep at a decent hour.

7.28

Shorts and shirt: American Eagle, Sandals: Kohl's, Necklace: Charlotte Russe, Pants: F21, Jacket: NY&Co.   In the 2nd outfit, I think my pink necklace would have been better but I only changed real quick and wasn't thinking about jewelry.

I hit snooze for 1 hour.  I always hit snooze. I forgot how I always hit snooze when I worked too so I should quit feeling bad.

Dave cooked breakfast. He woke me up saying it was almost ready.  I ate 1/10 of what he made for me.  I do not do well with eating in the morning.

Then it was computer time.  Then all of a sudden Dave says it's time to go and we head to the farmers market and a few other stores.  We bought red potatoes and bread at the farmers market. We saw a lot of other things we'd like but we have tended to buy far too much food at a time then not cook it and waste it so I wouldn't allow that this time.   We then headed to Target, a specialty foods store to find oil, and a bigger Trader Joe's.

We went to Sweet Tomato for lunch since In N Out was packed.  We were both unsatisfied.

Then we went home and watched TV.  I fell asleep. Dave fell asleep first though.

I woke up after an hour and took a picture of Poly. Then I went back to sleep for another 2 hours. I only woke up when Dave was quizzing me about what to do for dinner. He kept making me think so I was getting awake.

We went to In N Out and then to Best Buy to get a new hard drive for the computer that records TV shows.

Then we worked on doing computer stuff after.

The night flew by. I think it was the 3 hour nap.

I did almost nothing in the apartment to clean it up. Only made more of a mess.  I stayed up late just wasting time because I wasn't tired from my long nap.
