MYkind: today’s outfit.

This is what I wore to run errands, which is what the entire day today consisted of. We’re going through some family things (I’ll share more later) and when the going gets tough, I run errands for people. It’s my gift: the ability to run errands like none other.

Adding that to my business card now.

MYkind: today’s outfit.

This one is George’s favorites. Clearly, he’s thrilled. (Also, I’m aware I’m holding him like a toddler. He loves it; I promise.)

I wore this to the E.R., where the doctor informed me that I couldn’t hear out of my right ear because there is a hole in my ear drum. Which is fantastic news.

No, really. It’s great news. This means when Ken asks me to do the laundry, I can say “What?” until he eventually tires of repeating himself and he breaks out the detergent on his own.

Best curse ever.

look! an outfit!

I’ve been seriously slacking on showing you guys my outfits ever since the dreaded 30 for 30 (I’m saying that with sarcasm, but it’s semi-true how much I hated that challenge).  Anyway, it’s surprisingly hard to take pictures of yourself and I also sort of hate it. Any other ways to document? Think, friends. Think. Perhaps we can invent a telepathic wardrobe or something.
