road to recovery.

a big thanks to all you lovelies for the well wishes.
finally got some meds for the sinuses,
and i'm feeling better evvvry day.
took it easy this weekend, and i should be back to
somewhat regular posting this week.

relaxed at my mom's place while waiting for mini-he on sunday.
always enjoy this time to chill...do my nails, catch up on some reading with a (huge) cup of coffee, and just enjoy the silence.
i love poking around my mom's bookshelves. she reads a lot of political books, but every once in a while i find a gem like...this scrabble dictionary!
so all my words with friends friends, beware.
i'm beefing up my game.

color combos...
a new found personal favorite: the coolness of blue and purple.
on my nails: the always feisty tangerine and teal.

that's a word?!
the always challenging 'q'

    So glad you're feeling better! I feel like I've missed so many of your posts!!! i apologize. I love your relaxed look here, and I love the orange and blue nails! Mine are pink with mint and yellow right now :)

    And SCRABBLE!!! I LOVE scrabble! My colleagues and I got really competitive last semester and would have 10-20 games online going on. We all LOVE Q and Z and X. Oh man. Goooood times.

    Yay, I'm so happy to hear that you're feeling better. I adore these mani shots. One of these days I'm going to treat myself to some shave ice. Now that the weather is warming up here I might just have to do that.
