my blog

I think my muscles have finally recovered from climbing. Thanks for all the kind words, ladies. As you all probably know, doing physically challenging things does not come naturally to me! It was fun accomplishing something when I went into it not really knowing how good or bad I would be. I sucked less than I thought I would- yay for that!

In other news, I have been slowly trying to upgrade my wardrobe this past year. I typically try not to spend more than $15 on a shirt and $30 on pants, so it means being sale conscious and keeping my eye out for versatile pieces. After my sister Kelli visited me and Becki in Colorado last year, I remember admiring how well her outfits matched. I started making an effort to buy things that might coordinate well with other separates, rather than buying whatever caught my whimsey on that particular day. The result? I own a lot of black and gray and white. But it's good! They go well with my former wardrobe- colored checkered and flower-patterned skirts and random boho shirts. My wardrobe has diversified. Life is good.

And can one ever have enough pajama pants? I think not. However, I have noticed an upgrade- goodbye Old Navy candycane-laden flannel p.j. pants, HELLO (!) Victoria's Secret pale blue thin cozy cotton pajama pant bottoms with lace. Although it may sound like I've turned into a vixen, I assure you they're very comfortable yet pretty yet appropriate. Because that's the kind of girl I am.
