My Week According to Instagram

Another week has passed.  And I've actually been a good girl all week when it came to blogging.  Everything came out on time.  I told you, I just have to get back into the routine of things.  And getting a head start by at least having the photos ready certainly helps matters.

I've spent a good portion of my evenings this week with R.  We don't really do too much but lay about and watch films.  But I love his company regardless.  Wednesday we did go out drinking with some of his mates.  Other than that, we've spent our evenings in.

1. Last Saturday's outfit for a cookout at my brother's house.
2. Good hair day that didn't last long thanks to the humidity.
3. There's a ladybug pin on my hat!
4. 1850 dream house for sale about 10 minutes from where I live.

5. I want a man to throw me around on the dance floor like this.
6. Finally did my huge pile of hand washing.
7. Monday's outfit.
8. Too hot and lazy to wear my hair down.

9. Shared this outfit post on IG.
10. Sent out some letters to my penpals.
11. Wednesday's flapper-ish outfit.
12. My old timey camera mobile cover came in the post!

13. Robert Taylor was this weeks Style Crush.
14. Shared this post via IG.
15. Made myself a tasty cocktail Friday night.

Today I'll drive my mum to church, as she has recently broken her leg.  Afterwards we will head back to her house for food and games.  She said she's planning on making chicken kabobs with cheesy potatoes for dinner and apple crisp for dessert.  She sure knows the way to my heart: chicken and potatoes.  It would only be fully complete with s'mores and mint chocolate chip ice cream.  Oh well, can't win them all.  I'll just have to win at Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock and Trivial Pursuit Genius Edition.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend and an even better week ahead!

My Week According to Instagram

I know, I know, I know...  Where the bloody hell have I been?!  I'm so sorry...  I actually took the time and edited over 100 Instagram photos from the past couple of weeks, put them up here, and wrote the whole blog entry.  Then went I went to post it, I lost everything and was too frustrated to go through all that again.  So I am skipping those two weeks and picking back up on this week.

One thing I must share since I'm not posting those photos is that the guy I met at WWII Weekend and I are no longer seeing each other.  I was really sad at first, but now I've realized it happened for a specific reason.  If I would have never met him, or if he would have never split up with me, then I wouldn't be where I'm at at this moment, nor whom I'm with.  I feel the pain was worth it in the end.

1. Watched On the Town for the first time. Such an entertaining film!
2. Last Sunday's outfit.
3. Monday's mixing of matching florals.
4. Gorgeous gloves I got from the lovely Eccentric Owl. She's such a great penpal!

5. Recruited penpals. I'm bringing handwritten letters back.
6. Cocktails with a friend at a pirate themed pub.
7. "When the Right One Comes Along" from Nashville.
8. In love with Wednesday's outfit. I must wear it again and take outfit photos.

9. Wednesday's hair. I have a bit of a fingerwave somehow happening.
10. One must wear a Captain America plaster when they cut themselves on Fourth of July.
11. A patriotic pinup.
12. My Fourth of July outfit.

13. Friday's outfit. It was too hot to bother with anything too fancy.
14. Oh Benny...
15. Finally watched Mr Selfridge and loved it!

I've had some really busy weeks lately, which has been a wonderful change.  I've been hanging out with lots of different people.  Last weekend I went to Gettysburg for the 150th which was really neat to see.  There are photos on my IG account and there will be a post with photos eventually.

I'm writing this post a day early, because I'll be too busy this weekend to get it out on time and I feel terrible about being so far behind in blogging.  Saturday (aka today as I'm writing this) I went to my brother's house for a cookout with my family and a new fella.  Afterwards he and I will be going to a party at his mate's.

Today I'm going to church with R to hear his band play and then going to the Conrad Weiser Homestead with him whilst he takes pictures.  After that I get to go to Shupp's Grove with a friend from the library I volunteer at.  I've never been there before but apparently I'll love it.  There's all sorts of antiques and vintage clothing and whatnot.  Hmm...me, be interested in that...?  Never...

I'll leave you here for now.  Until next time...Which won't be nearly as long I promise!

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!
