CHRISTMAS IN PURPLE!

Image
I've have suddenly become obsessed with purple! It began innocently after  I retired a few years ago! I even wanted purple hair but was too chicken to try it!!  I am on the hunt for a mixed purple and grey wig! I haven't been too successful find purple clothes that I like.  My goal for the new year is finding  fashionable purple clothes!  I have to buy a new Christmas tree this year.  I discovered that my dog Milo chewed off  the plug connections for  my old pre-lit tree.  I thought he was just having fun playing with  the  branches!

Tokkoro.com It has been too hot this summer!  The temperature has soared past ninety for the past 2 weeks. My container gardens are flourishing, Thank God! They  love the sun and heat if I keep them  watered twice a day!  I am loving my air conditioner so,  I get back home from running errands as so as possible. This hot weather made me recall an argument  me and my mom have had for years.  Which is  cooler in the summer dresses or shorts? I say it depends! The fabric, color,  and style of the  dress is important.  The dress must be made from  cotton gauze,  rayon, or cotton blend fabric. I say yes, dresses are cooler. I know the crinkle gauze dress has a wrinkled look. But the dresses are dainty and feminine so I overlook the crinkles.   A lot of my friends like linen but I don't. It's hard to keep from looking like a rumpled mess. I don't like to iron clothes.  Linen clothes...
