Remix 25: Some flower power

Day 25. Don't I look worn out and frazzled? Well, thats because I am.  For 3 nights now, I have woken up at almost 3am on the dot each night. And not been able to get back to sleep. Work Stress  I call it.
So today I work from home review focus on prioritizing my work and what needs to get done, and get real about the stuff that I have been saying is urgent but really can wait.  Truth is, I feel absolutely fried right now. Just like a crispy piece of bacon.   The tennis court is an appropriate photoshoot today, just reminds me of how I 've been running around chasing all the balls that are dropping!! This outfit was thrown together and  do love the colors and I love this old dress, it's me and my hair that looks rough!!

Remix Items: Flowered dress, green sweater, black boots

Hopefully maybe I made you smile, at least with the bacon comment. I feel too tired to be funny right now. Instead I am going to have a nap!! Toodle doo ladies.  Oh yeah. Did you know Today is Colette's Bday?? Colette from Statements in Fashion??  You might want to go on over and wish her a good one- she's gettin to be an old lady after all :P

  2. Sorry about your fatigue. The same thing has been happening to me: waking up in the middle of the night and unable to get back to sleep. Of course we pay a price for it the next day.

    Get some rest. And pretty outfit, BTW. It's exactly what I would build. The belt is special.

  24. I see your comments on lots of the blogs I visit. You are always saying you have too much grey and black in your remix. Then I visit and bam! Color. Bright, beautiful color! And it looks wonderful!
