i got dressed today! (hee hee)

This morning I went to a political meeting about education reform, public land use and immigration.  I have strong opinions about the first two issues and purposefully stay ignorant about immigration.  My current senator is Aaron Osmond and State Rep. is Ken Ivory.  I am pleased with the conservative way, in true repbulican platform, they are approaching giving power back to the locasl in education.  Sen. Osmond has some great ideals on empowering local elected boards to run local schools. A truly innovative idea modeled after something he has seen in Australia. Ken Ivory is working on reclaiming our claim on state lands and use of them.  Oh, idealism.....

Thus, I got dressed today!  I have "fresh" hair--so happy with it!  It has two colors of blond weaved in between my brown weith a pixie cut that I can wear messy and cute!  If you live in the Salt Lake Valley and are looking for a hair dresser, I would recommend Alicia Eby at Amber Rene Salon.  Tell her I sent you so I can get a referral discount! 

Cute fabric hair flower I made, if you want one...let me know!  I have a few extra:)  p.s. the flips are a gift from my cousin in Austin, TX.  they are SO SO SO comfortable! 

outfit 45--argyle $1 thrifted sweater

this sweater was only $1(--maybe it looks like it--?)

i loved it because it is a thin sweater, with a hood and a classic argyle pattern

"pink and power brown" is one of my favorite color combos! 

however, next to my face, beige is not a good color, 

thus, i added the scarf to help maintain the healthier tones of my skin:)

i was excited, too, because my socks are pink and brown argyle,

"and then i am thinking oh, my gosh, it was like, perfect, because you know the pattern is there and repeated in the other place and it gets me all happy with repitition" 

fluttering hand motions inserted all along that exaggerated verbalism....brought to you by teaching jr. high all day, oh--they wear off on ya a bit:)

without the jacket and a little closer view, you can see the cute floral print and ruffles of the skirt. 

the pink t-shirt is okay for the summer but it is too casual for normal school wear. 

HOWEVER, it was 79 degrees in my room,

BECAUSE my room has been turned into a computer lab and has 28 computers for test taking

AND the air conditioning broke.....blech,

79 degrees plus 7 classes of stinky teenagers, does NOT a happy teacher make:)
