the blues

I guess you are what you eat...and you are what you wear.  It's appropriate that I'm wearing blue today since that's how I'm feeling.  It's September and as much as I'm obsessed with fall fashion, it's bittersweet for me.  I'm excited to wear all my new fall clothes, but it means that I'm returning to work.  I haven't worked in almost 17 months.  Being home with my kids an extra 4 months has been a blessing.  I'm dropping them off for a half-day of daycare tomorrow.  I know my son (4) is excited (he also starts school part-time!), but the little princess... well, she's a princess.  It's going to be tough, but I know a lot of women do it.  At the same time, I'm excited I'm going to have a whole 3 hours to myself tomorrow!  It's probably going to consist of a little bit of shopping, you know, to ease the pain.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Labour Day weekend!

Okay, I'm really getting the hang of this wearing shorts business, but making sure I'm kept warm (because it's not that hot out) by pairing them with sweaters or, today, this Madewell chambray shirt (that I'm obsessed with btw).  This weekend is a long weekend and it's supposed to be beautiful out, so this will pretty much be my go-to outfit.

Happy Victoria Day (i.e., May 2-4) weekend my fellow Canadians!
