Busy, Busy Bee

Yep, that's me. Things at work had gotten really slow over the past year and I got . . . well, kind of lazy. I enjoyed the extra time I had to facebook and blog. Well, all of a sudden, we've gotten super busy at work and *gasp*, I no longer have all the time I need to feed my facebook and blog addiction! 

Added to that, I started a really good book  a week or so ago and since then, I've been reading it and the sequels in every spare moment I have at home. I tend to do that. When I've found a book (or series) I really like, I can't stop reading until the story ends.

Anyways, I totally forgot about EBEW's Maxi challenge, due to my Little Missy getting tubes in her ears. So, I wore a maxi dress to work on Wednesday. As I was leaving the house, I grabbed the wriststrap to my camera and do you want to know what happened?  It slipped out of my fingers and crashed to the floor. (If my sweet husband happens to be reading this, I'm sorry!! I was rushing out the door all while juggling my gym bag, the diaper bag, my purse and two kids!) Anyways, it's definitely out of commission now. When I turn it on, "Lens Error" flashes at me.  So, my co-worker snapped this quick picture with my cell phone so that my maxi dress would be documented. =) Aren't you so happy? I know... you were thinking that you don't know how you'd get through the day if you didn't see my maxi dress!

On a slightly related note (related only in the sense of how hectic my life has been lately), I was rushed to get out the door this morning because my Little Man was acting like he was going to be sick again. So I just hopped into one of my go-to outfits.  Basically, when I don't have time to think about what to wear, I go to these skinny jeans, a pair of heels and a flowy shirt. Today, I added a cardi & belt because they were sitting there. On the floor of my closet, right in my line of sight.  Yep, I still haven't had time to properly organize my closet. I'll get there, my friends, I promise. One day.

And this, my friends, is what my co-workers get to see all afternoon when I spend my lunch break at the gym.  Sweaty hair? Check. Smeared makeup? Check. Red face? Check. 

Oh yeah... I look good!
