Hope you guys are having a great week. Mine happens to be fairly stellar at work. And personally, a bit rocky. But I am so tremendously grateful for this little blog and this little life carved out here in Oklahoma. I seriously have reverse Seasonal Affect Disorder – I don’t know anyone else who gets happier with the end of Daylight Savings.

As a side note – no, I promise I am not goth – but my fabulous coworker and friend commented to me today how I always wear black. Or rather… her words were “black is a serious part of your color palette.” Plus, I am seriously often rocking the messy bun. The above reminds me of the look I go for every day at the office.

This beautiful quote (found here):

It doesn’t make sense to call ourselves ugly, because we don’t really see ourselves. We don’t watch ourselves sleeping in bed, curled up and silent with chests rising and falling with our own rhythm. We don’t see ourselves reading a book, eyes fluttering and glowing. You don’t see yourself looking at someone with love and care inside your heart. There’s no mirror in your way when you’re laughing and smiling and happiness is leaking out of you. You would know exactly how bright and beautiful you are if you saw yourself in the moments where you are truly yourself.

This new collection at Target has me feeling all cozy and warm inside.

I just bought these boots. I have had them in green for over five years and they are seriously comfy. Did I mention they were on sale???
