Who loves ya, Pretty Baby

So, tomorrow is the 4th of July, and I have 4 days off!!! Today, I am waiting for the pool repair guy, since I have a leak. I hate waiting for sevice people. First, they give you a time range for arrival (9-11) and then, I'm never sure that they will actually show up, since I have been burned before. Well, let's hope that the lure of $1500 will bring them around.

Remember the rug I got the other day? Well, here it is in all it's glory, in the library/dressing room. Doc said that Elli loves laying on it.

When I went to Kansas City, I left a pile of my dirty laundry on the floor near the hamper for Elli to lay on. She loves to climb on the laundry while it's waiting for the washing machine - she must like to smell our scent. Well, she chose the rug over the laundry pile today. Baby steps toward not being a gross dog. Speaking of gross dogs, here's a picture of my other two pets - Kenni and Jackpot.


Kenni is my min pin (miniature pinscher) and Jackpot is my 15 year old dalmatian/lab mix. Kenni is, and has always been, a royal pain. He lives here because he went through three homes, and he would have been put down if not for us. He is totally hyper and has zero impulse control. But he does okay out in the yard with Pot. Jackpot turned 15 on St Patrick's day. She is still going, although she has bad arthritis and can't see or hear too well. But she is Kenni's constant companion. I try not to bug her by taking tons of pictures of her.


So tonight, I am going to go see Jersey Boys. I saw the stage show in Las Vegas last summer, so it will be interesting to compare the two. I have assembled two casual outfits, but haven't decided which one will be the winner. First, we have a pair of pleather leggings, which i paired with the tank from Stacy's Closet that I got the other day. For cover, a satin jacket made by Fire LA. The leggings are from Nordstrom.



The other option is also a pair of leggings from Nordstrom. They are olive green with gold embossing, and are made by Hue.


I think I got them at the same time, during one of the Half Yearly sales (which begin again next week). For a top for this look, I went with a gold tunic that I got at Salvation Armani some time. I will need to wear a gold tank under it.


I haven't decided yet. Tomorrow, you will get the see the winner, all ironed and accesorized up. I usually do better with work clothes. When casual time comes around, I most likely just grab a pair of shorts and a top. But seeing as how I never go to the theater, I figured that I would give it my best shot for a change. I wasn't a particular fan of the outfit I had on yesterday, but it got a LOT of compliments, so I guess the beauty was in the eye of the beholder, for sure. Well,stay tuned for the big reveal!! P.S. Today, I am linking to www.vodkainfusedlemonade.com for Tres Chic Thursday. I am not really tres chic, but I guess I will try anyway. Go on over and find some cute new blogs !!!
