What are you *wearing* today?

72 degrees It is supposed to be 10 degrees cooler this weekend so
perhaps I can wear my new green wool coat. I began the day with a much
needed 90 minute massage since I've been suffering with lower back pain
for the past 5 weeks. I picked up my glasses, bought more groceries and
did some things at home before I went to work. I had seven students stay
this afternoon; usually I've been averaging 20–30.
brown cotton v neck fitted long sleeve tee from Saks Real Clothes,
velvet trim at the neckline and sleeve edges
caramel SRC slacks
tan socks with Sesto Meucci brown moc croc loafers
Desmo chocolate woven leather hobo bag
topaz drop earrings, thin gold bracelet and watch
tan washable suede barn jacket in the morning

Cloudy and in the 30s now with some wind and sunshine later. We had
our first snowfall of the season last night, about a 1/2 inch on cars
and grass, and there's still some left on the cars this morning. The
Engineer and I were out for dinner last night and it was beautiful to
be out in the snow...even if November is a bit early for snow for DC!
Today we'll have Thanksgiving dinner with one of his cousins and her
family, then we'll go to see some friends, where I'll stay for the
evening and, as he doesn't have to work tomorrow, he'll head over the
Blue Ridge for the weekend (I'll join him tomorrow).

emerald green and sapphire blue, beaded at the (v–neck) placket and

Happy Thanksgiving to all celebrating today!

For the first time in years, I'm going to be the guestess rather than the
hostess!
Embroidered black velvet DKNY dress (this dress but in black:

Red turtleneck bodysuit;
Red Wolford tights;
Franco Sarto black suede knee–high wedge boots (but also bringing black

Antique round gold art–nouveau locket––a gift from my father to my mother,
with Dad's photo on one side and a movie–star–like photo of my gorgous
mother on the other)...
Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

I gotta tell you, it is a real pleasure being the guest for a change. My
house is as clean as it was this morning, and I am thankful that I'm not
looking at a fridge full of leftovers.

I am not sure I have one but if I find it, I will email you and send it
to you

exciting.

Makeup, it takes believing in. Like a magic carpet, it's belief that
makes it fly. Otherwise, it's just a rug.
If you believe in it, makeup has a magic all it's own.

BLACK FRIDAY 2005: Houston is alternating fog and mist and in the
mid–60s. Tossed out the abundantly collected trash about 7:00; either
my neighbors didn't have anything yet or they were also in big–trash
mode. Called the Farm about 7:30 in the morning and found out what was
going on there (trip to town, a usual chore). Finished off all the
scanning and staging for my DVD photo album (136 files so far, but I
decided I needed picture #137 of me doing the photo album!) except the
stuff Mom's sending as hardcopy photos (WWII–era photographs, I hope
she's got the negatives if they get lost in the snail mail... won't
matter once I get them scanned, of course!). Usually would have
showered about this time but I did it last night. Assessed the fairly
empty refrigerator and went to Kroger to correct the matter: two trips
in with groceries and pop. After all that grocery shopping, I had to
go over for tortilla soup and a small order of beef fajitas (haven't
gone over since Sunday for various reasons). Now listening to Darlene
Zschech's second solo CD on my PC speakers, they're too good for their
usual diet of corporate conference calls; good if you like her style
of music (contemporary praise & worship, she's the worship leader of
Hillsong Australia). For the day:
Gray heather T–shirt
Black shorts
[when out]
Reebok BB4600 high–tops (black/white)
(slightly different than the pair in the photo)

walmart and target broke ths stranglehold and monopoly that toys r us
had on the toys market but also the selection and variety of toys at
walmart and target since has been limited and not as creative or
original.
so interesting to see what would result from walmart vs target when the
dust settles.
will target or walmart become the next "ross" when all is said and done

58degrees I cooked turkey soup with the stock I made Friday and then
made donations to the thrift shop and a neighboring high school. This
afternoon I'm going to see Walk the Line and then continue the holiday
madness when I get home.

A casual day. Overcast, cold & damp outdoors.
Brown stretch twill Eddie Bauer pants (found for $9.99 at Ocean State
Job Lot in RI.)
Black turtleneck.
Purple, brown, black and off–white hand–knit sweater from Norway with
pewter clasps, found for $15.00 in vintage clothing store.
Purple squooshy soft & plushy chenille socks. I am so hooked on this
kind of sock.
Dark brown leather Born clogs.
(Sorry, can't help reporting the prices of my "finds" and telling you
what great bargains they were!)

Woke up this morning to find out that my DR's appt had been cancelled
because of the weather...she has to drive about an hour to get to work and
we had near–blizzard conditions last night that made today's roads kind of
hazardous...I will be catching up on my weekly celeb tabloid mags today and
tonight I will be watching tv with my parents. Such a terribly, tragically
uneventful life I lead... (lol) It's in the 30's here in Minnesota with
snow on the ground again...
*Camel colored sweater (Field Gear by Marshall Field's)
*ankle length black skirt with beige and cream swirls across it (Cato's)
*black ankle length socks (Target)
If I go outside any today, I will put on a brown leather jacket (Lane
Bryant) with beige Uggs and red chenille gloves (picked up at Walgreens for
$2.99!!).

ON THE 15th ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST EPISODE OF "THE SIMPSONS": Up
about 6:00 after sleeping a whole bunch. Made shopping run #1: went to
a ginormous new H–E–B that replaced the old one to the South, then I
gassed the car ($2.299/gallon). Unloaded the car and made a dumpster
run (should have done it yesterday with the door–to–door pickup but I
didn't). Then, out on shopping run #2: took a medical insurance check
(90% of an Rx I filled the last week of December) by the credit union
and went to Best Buy to use up a Christmas gift card that arrived in
January (BBC 3–DVD version of "Chronicles of Narnia"). By then, it was
time to go over to the Mexican place for tortilla soup and chicken
tacos. Came home, did some bookkeeping. For the day:
White T–shirt
Dark gray sweat pants
Nike Air Trainer Escape sneakers (blueprint)
http://sneakers.pair.com/l/airtesc6.jpg
FWIW, I suspect later on in the day, the gray sweats will be replaced
with blue shorts as it's warming up significantly.... I'm not as crazy
as the H–E–B bagger who was wearing shorts when the outside
temperature was in the 40s!

Stevie, your posts make me feel so old and conservative...LOL. I mean, I
don't have the slightest idea what this thing you wore even means except
that I assume it's a pair of jeans:
"joes jeans in socialite in hendrix with the deconstructed sections
and rainbow embroidered pockets".
Smokey

Hey Smokey
it's a pair of exceptionally expensive jeans.. that are faded blue with
deconstruction–– means worn, frayed edges and even a shredded section
near my left knee.
the Hendrix has fun embroidery down the seams, hems as well as on the
back pocket (rainbox in multi hues) and also on a couple spots on the
front.
you can check here for the

to see the different views: front, back, side etc
and I did not pay that price for these...
the Raw Seven Cashmere hoodie can be found on ebay and also was on
Nordstrom.com.. it's a cashmere cardigan embellished with tattoo like
designs on sleeves and back

Ah, thanks! I'm definitely too old and conservative for the style –– but
glad to know what the style is.

Telecommuting today. Did get up and take a shower, but currently I am
wearing my big soft terry–cloth cow–print Nick & Nora bathrobe (a great
deal at $12 from Loehmann's a couple of years ago).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CHRIS SQUIRE OF "YES:" Got up at 6:45. Caught up on
bookkeeping and wrote a Farm letter (haven't done that in a while).
Mailed the letter and went by the credit union with a check, then I
took my broken glasses to be fixed (they ordered a new part). Since I
haven't had an eye exam in a while, they had an open exam slot this
morning, and I planned my FSA for a new pair of glasses in 2006; I'll
be having an eye exam followed by a late lunch. For part #1 of the
day:
Dark green T–shirt
Light gray heather sweat pants
Nike Air Deschütz sport sandals (black/blue/yellow)
http://sneakers.pair.com/l/desch6.jpg
For part #2 of the day:
Swapped out sweat pants for:
Gray heather adidas shorts, black stripes
