I know my last entry was such a long time ago and I've been a bad blogger! One of my very best friends has been going through quite an ordeal this week. She had open heart surgery and she's only in her 30's. She was born with a congenital heart defect (bicuspid valve) and the aortic stenosis had become so severe that the valve needed replacing. So, she went under the knife last week and I have been visiting her in the hospital nearly every day since. Heart defects are one of the most common birth defects and heart disease affects women more than most people think. She did fine in surgery and was actually allowed to come home today! So, I'm so glad things are going well! I was very worried about her going in (tried not to show it), but am so glad things are going well and I see her improving every day :)
Needless to say, I've been behind on blogging. I have not, however, been behind on dressing. I had a lovely exchange on the
Effortless Anthropologie Trade Market. I purchased a
Precious Materials Cardigan (been chasing it forever and a day!) and when I got the package, I also got this cute little blue plaid top as a bonus! I'm so lucky! It's super cute!

Today is probably the hottest day of the week. I sucked it up and turned on all of our window AC units, driving up my electric bill this month. But since I'm in charge of that bill and chose not to roast, it's okay. I refuse to be hot anymore. Anyone else in the middle of a heatwave?
