Missed it again

So I missed Insta-Friday again. But rules schmools. Here's a little Insta-Late.
 
But first, I have to tell you that my real computer is broken. Sad. This one I'm using at the moment is like 6 x 10 inches. It's my "to-go" laptop, and works fine. But my regular baby has been at a repair guy for nine days and he has determined it needs a new motherboard. How dumb is that. I don't even really know what a motherboard is. Sounds expensive and important, hence the title "mother" in the name.

Broken computers make me not want to be on one. I feel pouty and uninspired and annoyed that technology is supposed to make my life easier but usually just makes it more complicated.

Don't worry. I'm sure I'll be back into my usual blogging deal any day now. In fact, a Mentoring #3 post will be up at Casey's any minute. I'm excited for that. February is going to be super fun too. I'm opening a little *shop* soon on the blog, which I can't wait to share. And I have two guest posts on love and marriage happening elsewhere next month. {Not that I feel I have much of anything down pat in that area at the moment. Lord have mercy.}

But for now, here's a little shallow nonsense via Instagram, all in the category of my style lately.

1. Date shoes. Dorothy meets Anthro. A gift from my cool dad for my birthday.


2. Target + turquoise + $5 = comes home with me.


3. Wearing #1 and #2 above, with my pretty friend of about 12 years. 8 of us, on the town, acting like grown-ups. For the most part.


4. School drop off, taken by a passenger. Is your steering wheel like as cold as ice in the mornings? I guess it's because I park outside, not in a garage. And, well, winter.


5. Rockin' my leg warmers. A gift from my super cool friend Jenn who lives in NoCal and only likes cool stuff.


6. 2nd day of the no-heat curls. Every time I do them, I can't remember what I did without them. Except for not like my hairstyle very much. I remember that.


7. Yellow umbrellas make any grey day a little brighter.


I hope you're having a great weekend.

  7. Stopping by from Casey's blog. Just wanted to let you know I enjoyed your post and TOTALLY related to your childbirth experience. I had natural with both my children and I will never, ever forget the pain and fear that came along with it. It was earth shattering! and then the most amazing gift of all.....my beautiful children:)
