Mid-Week Update

I've been a bad blogger...I can't believe it's already practically the middle of the week! So much has been going on and swirling through my head that I have thought about blogging for the last couple of days but have never gotten past the thought process to make it to typing...ah well. I have a whole bunch of posts to put up this week but I guess this post will be a jumble of randomness...please excuse me if I ramble...

First off, I've been dealing with an issue with a friend/acquaintance/not- sure-what-to-call-them and it's been majorly stressing me out. Recently a lot of tension and competition has developed (for them, not for me) and it has been accompanied by insulting comments. The relationship is such that I'm pretty sure I can't bring it up without ruining the relationship and as much as I have not enjoyed the last couple of weeks, I can't break this relationship up without it affecting a number of other people's relationships. Does that even make sense? What to do? Anyone have any advice?

Next, people at work have been incredibly grumpy lately...not sure why...maybe because summer is ending? I thought fall was a happy time of the year! To compensate for the stress and grumpiness, I have been thinking about eye candy like this:

mmmmm....I love the leaves and acorns but I would probably adjust the design a little bit on the acorn design as I've never liked the look of the lariat style on me. Maybe I could get it as an early birthday gift for myself? :)

The husband and I tried out a new couple's small group this past weekend. Not really sure what to think about it yet, it's pretty small, just a few other couple's but I'm hoping I'll get the chance to meet some people and make some friends. The night ended with us being rushed out of the house because someone parked in front of us needed to get out. This, unfortunately, resulted in my cell phone falling out of my purse and not going home with us, which caused us to drive all the way home, all the way back and all the way home again...in the rain, totaling nearly 2 hours of driving! It was a fantastic way to start the weekend, you can be sure.

Sunday night I got my boudoir photos back...needless to say the hubby and I went to bed quite late that night. :) I know I said that I would post more on my outfits and maybe even post some pictures after I received them back but is this something that any of you would be interested in? I was telling one friend about it and I offered to let her see some of them when I got them back and she wasn't interested at all soooo...yeah. Maybe everyone else feels the same way?

Tonight, I went and saw the movie Julie/Julia with a friend. I've wanted to see it since it came out but ten bucks a ticket just seems like way too much money to pay to go to the movies (times 2 if I dragged the hubby along). However, I hadn't seen this friend in awhile and she wanted to see it too, so we decided to met up and splurge. It was just as good as I'd hoped it would be. I read the book years ago and, while I loved the story, didn't like how the author swore so much in the book. I felt that it detracted from the story, so I was pleased to see that it was minimized in the movie. It was great to see the friend, she is getting married next year with a vintage 40's theme, so I am very excited to help with the planning and see the wedding come together!

Oh and for all of you who loved my shoes, I have a little shoe post coming up that you'll love! Ok....enough rambling for tonight, I promise much more cohesive post(s) tomorrow!
