hey there

now that i can wear ripped jeans, i wear these constantly...

shirt: thrifted, jeans: opal, bracelets: assortment

please excuse my little absence here.
i am house sitting and caring for the babies like a fiend, 
so the blog has (unfortunately) taken a back seat.
...i am not pleased about this.
i also just chewed off my fingernails and cuticles without even realizing it.
i guess that is what they mean by a (horrid) habit? 
goodbye pretty purple nails, hello nubbins.


things have been a bit crazy around here as of late.
i am trying to figure out whether or not to move...
i love my little home here, but my roommate leaves this week, 
and i have not found someone else to move in.
and let's be honest - a nanny doesn't exactly make the big bucks :)
so the online apartment hunt has commenced.
moving is stressful.
i know as soon as i have a plan though, i will be elated - so i must hang in there! 


on a more positive note, i think i found a new favorite shopping destination.
seattle friends, have you been to oh bella on roosevelt?
it is the most adorable/magnificent consignment shop! 
be warned: your bank account may disagree.
i might have purchased a few small treats for myself to "alleviate stress"...
thrifting is an acceptable (and less expensive) form of shopping when stressed, right?

a little positive message for myself,

and for you if you are stressed this week, too :)
