Well let me ramble...

Hello!

Oh goodness

what a week, what a silly busy week I've had

and by week I am counting my last seven days.

Oh wasn't the mad hatter tea party fun?

I'm afraid I was only able to visit a few parties

given we were out of town, I lost internet service all of Monday,

and I've been working late every-night for work

but oh my what lovely party guess you all were to my very own unbirthday!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!

There are quite a few things I want to share with you today

but given I have to get ready for work

I will type as quickly as I can

and just see how much I can manage to say

before time quickly creeps up on me

SHOES!

As I sure you all love them as much as I

I thought I would share a few of my favorite pairs that I currently own.

Sadly I lost 3 of my favorite pairs to my Puppy a while back

oh there is simply nothing like the loss of your favorite shoe

none the less 3 pairs!!!

Plus in the last year I had to throw away 2 pairs of shoes

that I have had from high-school that were my very very very

most beloved shoes! CRY!

Also the last 5 months have been very interesting

for I have not owned a single pair of black shoes

I can't tell you how many times I have gotten all dressed up

only to realize I had no appropriate shoes!

Not that I have not been looking!

But I don't do open toe shoes at all and I live in my heels so they must be comfy

But yesterday I purchased

these cute Mary Jane double strapped heels from on-line Target

I fret a bit because there is not yet any reviews

but I LOVE my last pair I ordered from target

(the red pair above)

And I was quite desperate because I have a wedding to attend in two weeks

and the bride just changed her colors!!!

My dress was to be pink

so I just purchased this pair a few weeks ago

oh-well they have proven already to be a great asset to my wardrobe

Quite honestly my shoe collection is pretty small

My husband would argue this point

but I have only 4 or 5 more pairs more than what I show here

I have no sneakers... I tend to like white Keds

but they always fall apart and get too dirty for everyday wear

So I think I might try Kangaroo shoes or Saddle shoes in the future

both of which I wore as a little girl

The last to pairs I want to share are what I refer to as my Holly Hobb Shoes

The heels are from Ross and the Mary Janes from Marshalls

neither very practical I have found but cute none the less

On a new note

I don't often share what I'm reading or what movies or tv series I;m watching

but a very ironic thing happened the other day

Two of my library holds came in

and unknowing to me the plots were exactly the same

The first was Finding Neverland

as I am switching gears from Alice in Wonderland

to Peter Pan for my next art series

& the second, Dream Child

Both movies are about the origin of the beloved children's stories

Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland

However I was quite disturbed to find out that our beloved Lewis Carroll

may have had an even more twisted mind than just telling nonsensical stories.

While J.M. Barrie was inspired by children's playful imaginations

well I am indeed running out of time

I guess you should rent the movies to see the comparison yourself or

just read this and this.

Please do stop by Friday if you can

I'm going to be sharing pictures from the maiden voyage

of our new airstream!!!

Hope you are all having a lovely week!
