Look, I have hair!

These are the most recent pictures I have, I took them yesterday. I was stunned to see my image with all that hair!! You might even think this was an intentional hair style. It's a little bit curly but it is too short to see. I am also amazed that my eyebrows are visible with out any extra makeup. You'd be amazed at what eyebrows do for your face; you don't realize until you lose them!

You can see from the following pictures that snow has arrived and the days are shorter, it is difficult to get photos after work.

I've pulled out the boots, hat and gloves.

Many thanks to my readers for your continued love and support through prayers and well wishes. I had my post radiation CT and bone scans and the metastatic cancer is still present but, it has NOT spread. My doctors define it as "stable metastatic lesions". I take my blessings as they come and live one day at a time. I continue to receive monthly infusions and will indefinitely to keep the bone metastasis stable.

Minty

I quickly threw this outfit on one morning last week to take my daughter to school. After I looked at it more closely I really liked the way it came together!

The mint cords kept me warm during this non-spring weather we are having but also keep everything looking fresh. I took pictures first with my Hunter's as I originally wore it and then took a shot in the house with my nude heels, more refined!

I picked up these pretty earrings from Target and they added a nice bit of sparkle.

My hair has since fallen out and I will post any old photos I have to keep up with the blog...and then you'll see me sporting hats and scarves and wraps, I just need to figure out how to make them look right and make the most of it! Thanks to everyone for all of your continued support, prayers and encouragement.

I can't stop wearing these boots!

For me, Hunter wellies bridge the gap between function and style perfectly.

But, I've been wearing them longer than it has been fashionable to have a pair in your closet. I just love now when I need to put on boots to go study a stream or get through some mucky field, I look so stylish.

And, I can promise, I will still be wearing them when it is no longer so hip!

Scarf: NY&Co-thrifted

Shorts: Love or Hate?

I can't decide if I love wearing shorts or if I hate wearing shorts. 

Or maybe just short, shorts?

This post and in the previous I'm sporting shorts-they seem like such a likely choice in the summer time. For  style this season there are so many choices: madras, classic twill Bermuda's, patterned shorts, leather shorts, scalloped shorts and even jorts!

However, I think I would rather just wear a skirt. And I think that decision comes from how I feel about my self in shorts. 

I'm a little critical and self conscious. My legs are too pale, uneven tone, bumped, scratched, bruised...the list goes on and on. 

But, I don't think I'll stop wearing them maybe, just not post them here!

My daughter took this picture and said "I'll tip it so I can get the pretty yellow flowers in" so I just had to include it!
