Hoarse


My little illness has taken a turn for the worse once again, I am now completely without a voice! That should make for an interesting afternoon at work trying to play with the kiddos.
Husband and I had a coupon that expired in a couple of days though, so we decided to go make use of it last night and went out to eat. I love dressing up for date nights :) I get to wear something a bit different-more geared to what Sean likes. It was funny, we were sitting across the table from one another just chatting and all of a sudden I realized that I couldn't really hear my voice anymore...haha, whoops! Maybe I've been talking too much when I should have been nursing my aching vocal chords..


I thrifted these boots last week! My current pair of fall boots are falling apart on the soles, so I knew I needed a knew pair-but I hate how expensive boots can be. So I've been scouring thrift stores for the past few months on the lookout. I was so happy when I found these! They are leather (much better quality than my current pair) and I paid $3.50 for them! I felt like I was stealing as I walked out of the store ;).  They have more detail as well, which I love! I wish they had a flat sole, because then they would be more versatile-but I can't complain.




 




Well, I'm off to get a flu shot in preparation for a winter working with small children. I've  actually never gotten a flu shot before so I'm slightly nervous (I am one of those people that really hate needles and pain). But I suppose it will be worth it to not come down with that nasty virus like I do every year!

God Bless, and I hope you all are staying well this year!

I'm so sorry you're sick. I've got a bug too and it is the worst.

I can't believe you thrifted those boots; they are really gorgeous. I love the two-tone look.

Oh no!! I'm sorry that you're not getting much better. Drink lots of tea and get a good night's rest! :) At least you look really really cute, right?! That bird print is seriously adorable, and I just love how colorful your outfit is.

I hate that you've been feeling bad. Hopefully that shot will make you feel better! But on the bright side, at least you can wear your cute new boots while getting stabbed with a needle! (I'm anti-needles, too!)
