Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by the creeping crud. I'm pretty sure my husband shared whatever illness he had earlier this week with me. I'm sniffling, headachy, and nauseous. Instead, I'll show you the very warm cat curled up on my lap. He's a sweetheart. : )

Today's skip day is brought to you by pure ditziness. You see, I sat down and sewed. And thought about what picture to take...and never actually took it. Oops. Instead, here is Abby, helping me sew.

Today's skip day is brought to you by an afternoon and evening spent at the office trying to close out a project. Instead, let's examine the surprising good pizza the hubby and I had for a late dinner.

Today's skip day is brought to you by the 4 hour nap that ambushed the dragon household this afternoon. Well, that and the fact that afterwards we made soup. During which I took lots of pictures of the soup, but none of the house. Oops. You'll never guess what kind of soup we made though.

Today's skip day is brought to you by a last minute, late night brainstorming session for a project at work. Instead, let's look at the tasty CSA veggies the hubby picked up tonight. It's our last week until the winter shares start. : (

Today's skip day is brought to you by overtime and the sheer tired of the week. This is about as far as I made it tonight--the couch. I blame Jack though. Clearly he was pinning me down.

Today's skip day is brought to you by a big, fancy awards dinner. I was nominated (though I didn't win) so I spent the time to really look fabulous, even getting my makeup done.

Today's skip day is brought to you by a hubby who stayed late at work and a whole lot of house cleaning, recipe sleuthing, and other weekend preparations. Even dinner tonight was simple.

Today's skip day is brought to you by an after work networking event. Instead of hanging out at home, I was wearing a suit, drinking punch, and mingling. Not my favorite way to spend an evening, but I thought I cleaned up pretty well.

Today's skip day is brought to you by le tired. After a very long day yesterday, I am clean tuckered out tonight. And so, instead, lets look at that huge bunch of flowers I bought yesterday, before I broke them up into arrangements. See why they had to come home with me?

Today's skip day has no excuse. I got tired. I got settled. I kept meaning to grab my camera. But then, apparently I didn't. Very sad. Very true.

So, since I showed you my cute new dress yesterday, how about I show you my cute date today? Isn't he adorable?

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by a long day. Work, followed by a meeting, followed by a late dinner, followed by bed.

Instead, let's look at this picture from last weekend, from a vacation day. The hubby and I got dressed up all cute and went out to dinner. This is my new favorite dress, with my awesome red shoes.



And it's sort of house related, because that gorgeous background? That would be our deck and our backyard. ^_^

Today's skip day brought to you by the most wonderful exhaustion that comes from an afternoon spent paddling and floating down the river under the summer sun.

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by a serious lack of short term memory and taking pretty much the exact same photo I took on Wednesday. Which should tell you how happy I am to have my closet back! Instead, let's talk about what else came in the mail this week.



It might look familiar. : )

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by lovely, lovely overtime. Although, when you get down to it, there is a certain therapeutic quality to playing with computer models into the wee hours of the morning.

Instead, can I talk about my outfit from yesterday and how freaken cute it is? It is. Also, that would be my tetris necklace with a very "refined" outfit. I believe that is called "style". ; )

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by a late dinner with the hubby. Instead, let's look at this wonderful weather we've been having.



I wish summer would never end. Or, more to the point, I wish winter would never get here. This last winter was so gloomy and gray that I am relishing every bit of this sunshine even as I mourn for its eventual decay. It's complicated, this relationship with the seasons.

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by sleep. Having made it as far as dinner, it's absolutely bed time. Instead, let's ponder the wonderful greenery in full display outside. : )

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by work. I was at work so late today that I am pretty much falling straight into bed. In the meantime, here is somewhere I plan to spend some quality time this weekend--my craft room!

Today's skip day is brought to you by le tired. Also known as the-project-at-work-that-has-me-pulling-my-hair-out.

Instead, let's look at this pretty photo from yesterday. Sunlight in the bedroom. Gray and yellow walls. A made bed. New pillows. Much more relaxing. ; )

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by a wonderfully lazy Saturday. The hubby and I stopped by the drycleaners, had a wonderful brunch out, and spent the early evening doing not much at all. Then we headed out to see Sita Sings the Blues and watched some more LOST. Somewhere in all that relaxing I thought I had taken my house picture. Only, I hadn't. Oops.

So instead let's see something I think would be amazing in our master bath. This sink I saw at our local artist's collective tonight. The cats are voting with me on this one.
