My Sweet Life...

It's not because I'm a newlywed. I promise! I have the best husband... this is the wonderfulness that I come home to... love, love, love.

My husband knows my habits well. I feel so loved. I'm so thankful for my life today.

Vent.

Does it ever get done?! Even with a vacation full of planning, creating, making, designing, is it possible to say, yep, I'm done? I feel so overwhelmed. Sometimes, I wish I could leave it all there and truly be done. I don't feel creative. I don't feel like it's possible. Even if I throw myself into it wholeheartedly, it never gets done. 9-4? Not on your life. More like 8:00-7:30 and on weekends. I chose this.... better buckle down and get started. Only 12 more hours until I am there again... and I haven't even started tonight's load. How can someone even have a family with all this?!

Daydream blog believer

I read fashion blogs often. Mmmm...let's say daily. I feel weird sometimes because I like clothes so much. I feel like the only way to get out how I feel about it is writing a blog. I feel like I'm a minority in my circle of friends. Not that it's a bad thing... Sometimes my husband talks about music the same way I talk about clothes.... it's hard to get all the emotion about it out because it feels like I'm just talking and people think I'm crazy. I think I love my clothes the way a lot of people love their pets. I love when a fashion blogger posts about buying clothes at
- Wal-Mart
- Target
- Forever 21
- Thrift stores
- Vintage Stores
- Ross
because everytime they do... I feel like they know. They know what it's like to get excitd over an accessory. They know what it's like to not be rich. They know what it's like to value a dollar. They know how I feel. I tell Joe all the time, "Man, if I met that girl, we'd have so much fun together and we'd be immediate best friends."


But, when I read fashion blogs, sometimes I day dream... I dream about what it'd be like to have a wall full of shoes. I dream about having the perfect pair of skinny jeans and not feeling bad about the cost. I dream about my next thrift store junket...

But for now... I'm a realista-fashionista-teacherista :o)

Does anyone ever really NEEEEEED a reason to dress like this?! I think not! ;o)

So, I wore this to church Sunday and it was inspired by THE Kandee Johnson. If you haven't read her blog, check it out. She's so positive and upbeat. She constantly makes me laugh and feel good in my middles.

Model Shoot? Or... DL Photo Day?

Who really likes taking their pictures for their driver's license? Let's be honest, if a police officer is looking at your id, odds are you are not going to be cute or happy. Dang it.

Last time I renewed my license I went after school. Annnnndddd.... we'd just been on a field trip. I though I still looked put together but after the photo was printed, I see how the lady at the DMV failed to tell me my hair was messed up. Thanks, awesome lady. Thanks.



Hooray! Good news! I got married! Hooray! Good news! I get a new driver's license photo! SCORE! When I got up today, I said, "Shoot. I be takin' a photo today. I be lookin' fly. Lemme get this hurr curled pretty. I gotta make sure my makeup be lookin' right."






When all was said and done... husband man told me I looked very pretty and said, "Get your camera!". That man is made for me. <3


I'm a big weirdo and I love it! Be yourself!



Today, when the lady called me to pick up my new, winning license she called for "Mrs. Coatney". That makes my face and heart smile.
The end result:


Next time you take your driver's license photo, be prepared. Be very prepared....
And as always,

I heart hats!

I love hats! I try to wear them as much as I can in summer because, as a teacher, you don't get to wear them to school. Lucky me, my husband let me wear his hat.

And, yay for my strawberry earring with my beetle earring! Plus, a special thanks goes to my teacher friend, Jennie, for my super fun Hello Kitty kids meal watch!



Do you wear hats? Do you love hats? Do you think you look silly in hats? Try on a hat today!

And as always,
