Wisteria Blooms

Dear Brianna from Adventures of the Southern Wife, it was so nice meeting you and your husband!  I had so much fun photographing you guys!  You can view some of their photographs here on my facebook page or on Brianna's blog here!  Dear Contessa, you gave us a good little scare jumping behind the wall into part of the attic.  You are one curious kitten that's for sure.  don't worry, she was out within a few minutes, with a little help from Joe.  Dear EVO, thanks for contaminating your pet food with salmonella   You shut down your plant to decontaminate and now I have to suffer with kitties having upset bellies with different food.  that may mean cleaning the cat box four times in the middle of the night.  If that's what it's like having a sick kid, I'm opting out of that job.  lol  Dear Summer, I'm not ready for your unruly heat...  it's just miserable...  Dear Bathroom, I'm sooooooooooooooooooo ready for this project to be over.  So close!!!  Dear ShoeMint, I receive countless emails from you and finally decided to give your shop a try.  We'll see how these work out for the summer.  Dear Stomach Virus, thank you for plaguing both of us earlier in the week.  It was really great fun in our household on Monday and Tuesday.  Please don't ever come back and visit, thanks a pant load.

Many of today's dresses show a lot more skin today than I'd care for.  That's just not my style.  I sometimes wonder what happened to the classic modest, elegant dresses that were once around.  You know the ones that were similar to the 1950's style: hourglass in shape, fitted body with small shoulder, small waistline, full skirt and high heels.  Mikarose is perfect if you are looking for a modest and stylish dresses or any modest apparel for that matter.

Today Mikarose is giving one lucky reader a $50 gift certificate to go towards anything in the shop.  They just got a new line of dresses in too!  To enter, visit the raffle copter below.  Winner will be chose next week!   This giveaway is open to US and Canada only.

Good luck :)

Friday's Letters & Friday's Fancies Week #58: spring showers

Dear FedEx, why do you always provide inaccurate delivery dates?  It causes me more anxiety knowing that the package may or may not be there on the date you provide online as the expected date of delivery.  How am I suppose to plan to sign for a package when I'm not sure what date you are really going to be delivered on?  However, I do like that you deliver 'faster' than you say you will.  I'd just rather you be accurate, I don't like knowing the worst case scenario.  Dear DSW, thank you for providing coupons all the time.  Oh and carry NineWest.  Most comfortable shoes ever...  Dear Bathroom, you are so close to being finished.  It's been 3 long months and am anxious to use you again!  Dear Stickygrams, how am I only suppose to choose 9 pictures from my instagram account?  That's merely impossible.  Dear Norman (the cat), a few days ago you were playing with string and decided to chomp it off.  Mom and Dad ran around the house chasing you to get it out of your mouth before you swallowed it down.  Mom to the rescue, snagged it from your chompers!  I think you are banned from playing with string, even under supervision!  Dear Pollen, please go away.  I'm tired of the sneezing, scratchy throat and puffy eyes.  thanks a pant load.

there is never enough time in the day...

Happy Hump Day!  For the last several weeks I have had too much work on my plate and not enough time in the day to dedicate to my blog.  With working a full time job, disastrous house full of renovations and trying to maybe start a second career it's been hard to keep up with everything.  The husband can attest to my business as of late.

The biggest is my venture out into the photography world on my weeknights and weekends.  Weeknights I've spent retouching photos in the office and weekends photographing.  Any free time during my workday I've been reading articles or watching webcast.  That left this lil' ole blog in the dust.  Don't worry I'm still keeping it around!  Give me a few weeks and hopefully I'll be back into full swing of things.

It's been exciting, challenging, nerve wracking and exhausting all in the same...  Who knows what the photography will turn into.  It may continue as a hobby or who knows maybe a career one day.  For now I will leave it in God's hands to lead me to where I need to go.

So for today, I will entertain you with some extreme cuteness.  If you don't like cats, you'll just have to think they are cute anyways. Good day!

Dear Weekend, I have two photo shoots scheduled and am uber excited and a little nervous.  Dear Weather, please cooperate nicely...  I wouldn't complain for a few clouds, you know God's natural sun filter.  Dear Ants, just because it's warm out doesn't mean you are welcome in my home!  Green friendly way to remove you...  vinegar + water seemed to do the trick!  Dear Target Buyers, please stop purchasing so many cute fabrics and pieces!  You get me in trouble at home.  Dear Husband, I need a taser.  thanks a pant load.
