One Stripe to Live


I have been a naughty blogger lately. I don't mean to, but life just keeps getting in the way.
I have been busy and very stressed out.  I'm afraid that the company I have worked for and loved for the last 12 years may close. Nobody will actually say the words. But all of the signs are there.
Our youngest son is a Sr. in college and we are paying for his education..  I had hoped and prayed they could hold on. I guess only time will tell.. Unfortunately it's on my mind every minute of everyday.
So the bottom line is I am stressed!!  I'm sure I'm not the only one out there that feels that way.
Thanks for listening to my rant!  I am scared and can only hope for the best.

I thought since I was such a naughty blogger my convict striped sweater would be appropriate.
I will be linking up to Spunky Chaeteau for Thursdays are for thrifters

I will also be putting up the next Trending link up.  Hopefully tomorrow.
This week will be scarves!
I love them and have quite a collection. I'm thinking of incorporating my collection into the post.

So ladies, pull those scarves out And celebrate being a girlie girl.

This is a totally thrifted outfit:
Sweater  2.50
Tank      2.50
Pants      2.50

  3. I have missed seeing you on the blog. There are so many companies at risk today. I will hope for you that it does not happen for a while.
    Love this outfit. The pattern mixing is perfection.
