Heyyyy, friends!  Thought I'd hop in and share this outfit I pulled on earlier this week, 'cause I'm lovin' it! I did a serious clean out of my cardigans at the beginning of the year.  Some had seen their better days and some were not right for the Texas climate (vs. Florida).  This cardigan was "binned up," although I love the color, as my extra weight "fluffed" it out too much-Ha!  Since I've been losing weight recently, (I'm on another weight loss journey in preparation for my daughter's wedding this fall <3!), it got dug out from the bin and put in ..read more

Hey, friends!  I'm back again with another mention of our recent vacation (See my first What to Pack post).  Below are a few things I was glad I brought along.  I'm always trying to pack "perfectly" for each trip and these items didn't disappoint. 1.  Belt Bag You may recognize this from our Key West trip.  I didn't bring a regular handbag at all and only carried a tote in the airport.  I used this as a crossbody and shoulder bag, and around my waist and hooked my sandals on it when walking on the beach.  Plus, I was able to purchase a few souvenir pins ..read more

Back Street of Old San Juan (t-shirt/ shoes) Hey Friends!  (If anyone's out there!) I needed to go back to visit my Key West post to see how I should pack for this trip--which was helpful!  So, decided to pop in and do an update. The Background Darling Husband and I celebrated our 40th anniversary in January.  We knew we wanted to get away to someplace semi exotic!  Traveling can still be a bit "iffy" for Covid testing, etc.  So, we decided on Puerto Rico, since it's U.S. territory and there wouldn't be any difference in regulations.   Fountain near w ..read more
