My Gratitude List for October 3, 2010.

Today I’m Grateful For:

  • Desere coming over for coffee and a chat.
  • Spending time in the sunshine-  as my friend Samatha said- it’s like a familar arm draped over your shoulders.
  • The smell of banana crumb muffins coming from the kitchen.
  • Fresh grilled shrimp.
  • New plans and ideas.

Lovin’ Those Stripes

Filed under: Shop til ya Drop,Things I Love — gardener @ 11:06 am

I have been admiring this sweater for quite some time online but was hesitant to order it because I wasn’t sure if I’d like it once I did.   I also hate the idea of paying full price for something, especially if I know the chance exists that I can get it for a better price, so I waited.

I was also hesitant about ordering it because horizontal stripes are known to make you look larger and if there is anything I don’t want to look- it’s larger.    I went back and forth on that idea for a while, or at least until I got an email on Thursday that they were on sale.   I ended up ordering this sweater, plus another one with the only difference being that it was blue and white striped.     In addition to the sale price, I also received an additional 25% off.   It was a deal I couldn’t pass up.   

I really hope they fit and look great on me- but if not, I know I can always return them to the store I ordered them from.  The great thing is that I can actually return them to the store as opposed to sending them back via the mail.   I’m assuming that isn’t going to have to happen though.
