WEARING A CLASSIC JACKET

Buchanan County is a very small county without a lot of entertainment. However, over the weekend, I got to attend a wonderful theatre production of Beauty and the Beast put on the Theatre Guild of Buchanan County. The Guild is fairly new to the area but they have done about 5 or so productions since they were organized. This is all local children and adults who are doing the performing which was wonderful to watch. It had been a long time since I had seen Beauty and the Beast but it all came rushing back to me as I watched the play.My son and his family and I all crawled into the car and went to the 3-hour play. I was the one who crawled into the 3rd-row seats and that was not a pretty sight. There is no graceful way to get in and out of the 3rd row since there are car seats in the middle row. My Energizer Bunny Friend’s daughter was in the play and she was a wolf, and fork, and a villager. I was really impressed with the level of talent from our local residents, especially with all of the singing and dancing. It was just wonderful to see the auditorium packed and I heard that it was almost sold out every performance. Emersyn declared that she wanted to do one of these plays before long. We already have a famous actress who came from Grundy, Jayma May, and who knows if one of these children I watched will become the next one. Are the rest of you having weather like mine? One day I am wearing short sleeves and the next day I am wearing a coat and freezing to death. I just recommend that you wear a jacket that you can take off if the day warms up. This navy blazer/jacket is one that I have had for years. When you buy a classic you will be able to wear it for a long time. This was one that I bought from JC Penny and I love the striped lining inside. When I roll the arms (which is often) the stripes show and give it a unique detail. I love a jacket or a blazer because they hide a multitude of sins, especially in the area around your middle.

I am not even bothering with my Plunder jewelry today. It is like playing Russian roulette trying to figure out if the item is going to be in stock or not. I can’t wait until the new jewelry finally launches on the 16th!!! Instead, go to Alex and Ani and grab a few bracelets OR better yet, join me in my Rodan + Fields business and earn your own bracelets for FREE.Speaking of FREE things because of Rodan + Fields, check out my Kate Spade blue handbag. I have been carrying a different handbag for the biggest part of the winter but I am ready to make the switch. I love this handbag because it is such great quality and it has a ton of room. It also came with a matching iPad carrying pouch and Joe looks really cute carrying his iPad in it. Lol! Especially since it is a floral print with the solid blue trim. He is secure in his manhood so it doesn’t phase him in the least. It is like when I wore sparkly reading glasses and he would borrow them when we went in restaurants. The waitresses always had a comment to make about his glasses but it never bothered him in the least. He would just ham it up and act silly with them. Lol!

You can’t miss the white stitching on these Vigoss jeans. These are my bootcut jeans and I feel the need to wear them on occasions. I am normally all about the skinny jeans but the bootcut is great for balancing out larger hips. You wouldn’t think that by adding just a few more inches to the width of your jeans at the hem would make that big a difference but it truly does. I added my wine colored Isaac Mizrahi ankle boots to this look to keep in the same color scheme as the top. I never thought that I was brave enough to wear a bright colored shoe but I have found that if people are looking at my feet then they aren’t looking at my double chin. Lol!!!I was reading an article from CNBC today about fears. It was talking about what holds people back from success. I admit that I have or had SEVERAL of these. Here is the list:

1. Fear of inadequacy
2. Fear of uncertainty
3. Fear of failure
4. Fear of rejection
5. Fear of missing out
6. Fear of change
7. Fear of Losing control
8. Fear of being judged
9. Fear of something bad happening
10. Fear of getting hurt

For me, when I started the blog, it was 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, and 10! Wow!!! That is 6 fears that could have and probably should have stopped me from even trying. Now that I also have an online business with R+F the fears that I had were 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8. Don’t let FEAR keep you from starting a new chapter in your life. If you join me as a Rodan + Fields consultant I don’t just throw you to the wolves, I will train you and help you understand the business. I will talk to your prospects and help you with social media. My job is to try to give you every advantage that I can to make sure that YOU succeed. I would LOVE to talk to you about the products which can change your looks or the business which can change your life. Email me if you would like to learn more and we will jump on a phone call. PLUS, as a sign-on bonus, when you buy one of the business kits then I will gift you this Spring Renewal set that is a retail value of 217.00 if purchased separately. It contains 3 of my favorite products from Rodan + Fields. These are all FULL Size and they are AH-Mazing! The doctors have said that if you could only use one product for anti-aging that it should be the Intensive Renewing Serum.
