Whimsical

 I spent HOURS organizing my closets last night! I should have been working, but I thought it wouldn't take long (Ha!). It occurred to me that I'm just a touch of a clothes hoarder(yup, just a touch). The thing is, I am loyal to my clothes, once I have bought you, you are my cozy friend and even if you sit in the back of my closet for five years, I couldn't possibly contemplate letting you go! This skirt is one of those items. I don't think I could tell you when I bought it...it just seems it has always been in my closet. I still love it though...it's....whimsical. Something about it just screams romance and poetry to me. So I donned it today and am pleased with my choice. Not only is the skirt "whimsical" but also extremely comfortable, this was welcome while I sat in Pittsburgh traffic this morning and then in a training all day! I am happy to report that I did in fact throw out some items last night (well, they are waiting to go to Goodwill and find a new home). It gave me some ideas about the closet staples I have and how I do keep organized, so I'm thinking eventually there will be a whole page dedicated to that!(more to keep me in check in than anything else). But for now...enjoy my "whimsy".

I was on my way to work this morning, and it is a lengthy commute to job #1 office, when I came to a red light. So, I stopped of course. Next to me was a large truck, and as I was sipping coffee singing along to "mmm Bop" (yes, that's right, mmmm Bop....I'll wait while you laugh, but don't lie you know you like it!), I noticed the driver of the truck was staring down into my car...at MY legs! You see as I'm driving in my car all by myself, I don't pay attention to how high up my skirt may ride because, well, it's just me in there. Turns out it had ridden up pretty high, so high it was just shy of revealing what I ate for breakfast! It wasn't revealing what I ate for breakfast, but it was showing a lot of leg. That man was ogling my legs! he noticed that I saw him and continued to stare. My first reaction? "Ew trucker man, I am not an object for you to caress with your eyes!" (this statement may have been followed with a graphic gesture of some sort...but I'm a lady. Ha!) My second reaction? "that's right big daddy, get an eye full, this body gave birth to three children and I'm still yummy." (OK so I'm not competing with any hard bodied 21 year old, but I'm not so bad considering!). I guess I should have been ashamed of my second thought, but ya know what? I'm owning it. Stare away boys, someone has to!
