i can't reinvent myself
and
even if i could
i really don't want to
~as it sounds like a lot of work~
but
coming out of winter's suffocating hold
is making me believe
that to some degree
i'm a very different person than i was
a few months ago
~~
actually
in all honesty
~because of the way the universe works~
i'm probably
not even the same person
today
that i was yesterday
am i
?
well
whatever the case may be
all i know for sure
is that my new orange and white
polka dotted purse
is making me feel new and alive and sassy
~~
so come on spring
i'm tired of bulky sweaters and boots and gloves and snow and cold and muck
go ahead
kick winter's butt
~please~
*
oh, and if you want to feel sassy
too
i just got this purse at target for $10.00
wow
do i love a steal
*
If a $10.00 orange and white polka dotted purse from Target doesn't make a woman feel new and alive and sassy, then nothing will. Think I'll go put my boring black purse on the top shelf of the closet right now.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it amazing how here in WI seeing some dead, brown grass makes us happy and excited?

Beth, I think you've started something! I'm going to pull out my hot pink plaid Target purse today! How liberating!

ReplyDeleteI always LOVE that look on your face! Cool purse. First I thought of the pretty spots on the giraffe. Then I thought of little caramel squares melting on a hot summer deck all yummy and gooey....OOPS sorry I digress. Cool photos and great purse!
ReplyDeletethat purse puts an extra "s" in sassy! :-)
ReplyDeletelooks like you are good to go for awhile yet ... it will come
ReplyDeletethat purse simply shouts "spring". have fun with it.
ReplyDeleteand yeah, we cannot be the same, day in and day out, with all the influences in our lives, we are bound to be affected. sometimes good, sometimes not...
I think you may have solidified my waking thoughts for the day... despite what I see around me, my soul is longing for spring and I may just start getting springy... despite the gray and fog and overall dreariness :)
ReplyDeleteOrange and white polka dots... are so you :)
Polka dots NEVER fail, do they?! with your cute self!
ReplyDeleteYou are sassy! I'm so sick of my winter wears! Love the polka dots I wish Target was here :(

target needs to hire you as their model. you are working it!
ReplyDeletekt
your more than welcome to kick winter this way some cooler weather would be nice.
ReplyDeleteDear Beth...thanks for pampering me with soup and warm hands to massage my cold feet (if only we didn't live so far apart)....
ReplyDeleteI've missed out on so much, but I'm back again and I love your purse. Funny I always thought a purse is a wallet not a handbag...hihih. See still learning every day. Just as much as we change every day. I wouldn't want it any other way. Gladd you brought it up lovely lady.
Hugs Dagmar
Beth....I seem to be bringing more and more polka dots into my life...they used to be so "cutesy" but now that are so mod, so kitchy...and oh how I miss Target...living in the kuntry like I do, I save alot of money!! But oh when I go to the city....I can spend hours and buckets of cash in Target! YOU make that purse so adorable!
