This post is rather pointless but I'd appreciate a visit anyway
Posted by Kristin on Tuesday, May 28, 2013.This is really just a bunch of ADHD ramblings thrown together to make a post. Because I have a headache. And I left my ibuprofen at work because I was digging around for it due to my left hip deciding to quit working today and I forgot to put it back in my purse.
I have three skirts, a top, and a brief foray into jewelry making to blog about at some point, but I don't think my neighbors would appreciate me knocking on their door with my camera and a load of clothes asking for a photo shoot. So they will have to wait. At this pace, I'll be blogging about my cute summery lobster skirt in November. My new camera does have a delay on it, but I don't have a tripod and I don't trust Phoebe and a camera. It would end badly. So I either have to suck it up and buy a tripod or find a human.
But onto happier randomness!!! Is anyone else addicted to "Arrested Development"? I'm about halfway through the new Netflix only season...and I have fallen in love. Oh, not with the show. It already had my love. But with Lindsay's jacket...
Just look at that jacket! It is a Chanel-inspired navy plaid jacket with this wonderful ruffle trim. And the red rosette pinned to the side is the proverbial cherry on top. I forgot what was happening in the show because I was so distracted by this jacket. Oh, and her hair. Love Portia's hair. I would do that same cut except I have about a gajillion times more hair than she does. I'd probably come out looking like a Shih Tzu.
I would attempt to create my own jacket, except it would take me months to put together and I currently have three dresses and another coat on my to do list. Not to mention actually making some things for my etsy store...turns out I have to start saving for a new sewing machine. Based on the $10 I just made by doing some alterations for someone, I am only about $590 from being able to afford the machine I am currently lusting over.
I'm still going to add this jacket to my future escapades pile.
Oh, and about the new blog header. Sorry. I know it is kinda stinky. I don't like my blog design. I have a design in my head, just no computer skills to make from my brain to my screen. I could pay someone to do it but I don't have a bazillion dollars. Don't tell me it doesn't cost that much...I'm entering two months of no income (public school teacher who works for a system that only pays for 10 months - yay!). Therefore anything over $100 is like a bazillion to me right now. My newly earned $10 may have to go towards food or utilities (nah...I'll skip a meal to work towards that new sewing machine!).

Ha! You crack me up,Creative Girlfriend! Yes, I'll admit the hair style is cute and the jacket is very American chic --> but, really, you lusting over a sewing machine -- well, that's just to much! Hope you're feeling better soon. {Don't skip a meal, that will only make your head ache more.}

Ahhh...the new sewing machine. I dream of a machine that doesn't sound like a train. One that can manage to sew a seam without getting its tension all out of whack. I get so tired of it working one minute and then spitting the thread back out at me the next. I think my machine causes my headaches....
