28. Find a style.

I think I lament about my lack of style at least every six months on the blog.  I need to figure out my style and I need to get clothes! I’m so tired of feeling frumpy and unattractive.  The problem is that I need to figure out my style and I have no way of figuring out how to do that.  There is a mom at school that always looks so cute.  Maybe I’ll ask her where she shops?

I’m home today with Lucy.  We think she has Hand, Foot, and Mouth.  She was accidentally exposed to it last week and I thought we were in the clear and BAM-101* temp and a scratchy throat.  So we’re sitting at home.  I rented Winnie the Pooh from Redbox and she seems to be enjoying it.  I got her a peanut butter chocolate shake and she took two sips and said that she was done because it hurt .

With my unexpected day off I’ve set up a new bank account for us, scheduled my annual for my week off (joy!), signed Lu up for swim lessons, signed myself up for a gym around the corner (for $14/month!!!!), and folded literally 4 weeks worth of laundry (it was insane!). At least I got to catch up!

Poor Lu though, I wish she felt better .
