So, clearly…
I love mint.
I love polka dots.
I love pencil skirts.
Yep. I feel like I wear these items alllll the time. Like HERE, HERE, and HERE (and a million other places on this here blog).
But hey – if you know you love it, stick with it, right?
In other news, husband gets back tonight from a long-as-death business trip. Long-as-death being 4 days… which felt like 15. WOOF! I loathe business trips, particularly when HE is the one going on them and I am the one being left behind (sniff*). And this is the part where you say to the computer screen ‘Oh wah wah Shannon. Four days ain’t nothin! How bout’ you pull up your lady britches and stop being such a baby, mmmmk?’
However, in his absence I DID manage to go to Cross-Fit three times (did I tell you I was doing that? More about that tomorrow for Fitness Friday) and get my nails shellac-attacked! WOOT! I suppose some good can come even from the terrible injustice of being abandoned for the good part of a week while husband goes cavorting with a bunch of ‘business folk’ (womp- womp).
Btw, last day to enter the Albion Fit Giveaway! Don’t miss the chance to win some cutie-patootie workout clothing. Ay-O!

Oh, by the way… I’m featured as a Julep Look of the Week right meow. Check it out and then buy allllllll their nail polish, cuz it will blow your mind. No. Seriously. More pics/details to come on the outfit I’m wearing. Woot!
Have a ‘Thankful to have the Husband Home’ Thursday!
Thanks for read-ink.



You look great! I know how you feel. The hubs is going on business trip next week for 2 nights away. Not so bad, it’ll only feel like a week.

I think everyone needs a polka dot pencil skirt in their lives. So cute! How do you like Cross Fit? I’m interested but a little afraid, haha.

Seriously, I don’t know how military wives can handle their husbands being gone for months at a time. I hate when my husband goes away for a couple days! Love your blouse, the little gold buttons are a nice touch!
