I’m Out of Control

Doodles the cat is loving the warmer weather and suns himself every chance he gets. So do I, but not today. Today my sister-in-law and I had a special day together. We went for a manicure and pedicure together, and afterwards I introduced her to my favorite new clothes shop, called “Wow”, where be both did a lot of damage. My brother loves her new outfits. My husband will have to wait for me to surprise him with one tomorrow. He will get to see his surprise tomorrow when he takes me to Palm Beach for a day of shopping and wining and dining. I also have a hefty gift card to use at my favorite store. I’m out of control and loving every minute of it!

Aww, thank you! My modeling days are long over, but it was fun while it lasted. For some reason, we haven't bothered taking many photos when dolled up and out.

You are getting royally spoiled and isn't it just wonderful? I felt that way in my young adult days in NYC when I would spend many Saturdays running around the shops in Manhattan.

@DianneN When we go out and my husband stops at a bookstore, I look around to see if there are "more interesting" shops, he can search for books as long as he likes.

@kobesbuddy Ha! My husband used to come into the fitting room with me. I haven't let him do that for years! If I like something, I will come out to let him see it. I trust his taste when I'm not sure. I rarely listen to the saleswomen, but if my husband or a customer says something, I listen to them.
