Jeez I'm bad at this...

Well.

I'm home from England living in Texas with my family for now. I'm heading to Florida soon to be with my new man. More on him later.

I've been finding some pretty sweet shit at the thrift stores here. Mostly clothing.

Found my Halloween costume. A fur hood, an amazing sequin dress, some sexy winter boots from ebay and a homemade muff!

Okay, So I know only Amy and Mike actually read my blog (and I'm sorry it's been so long since i have posted) and this might seem like I am asking you two for these things--but i'm not, I'm just keeping note on the things for future reference.
