I forget that I'm a real mommy......

My best friend Bearmaiden has tagged my son as the Moon, and how dark it was literally without him this week. I have realized that I miss my shadow when he's not around and how boring it is without him. Even though I have been very busy, I had missed him sorely. So when last night he came back from his mini vacation and I saw him My heart started beating happily again. I love my son and all I can say for all my friends out there that know me, I'm not a very affectionate person but my Moon makes me melt and I become all mushy. In the world of Shoefly today (as bearmaiden calls me) all is well as my Moon as come to shine in mommy's world again.

The economy is bad but..........

What is a girl to do when she sees something as beautiful as these:



She buys them! That's what I did yesterday. I was minding my business,having a sister bonding day and there we are in the Macy's shoe dept and I see these beauties staring at me( yes I know that shoes have a hypnotic effect on me).these are Michael Kors and they just were so different from your usual summer sandals, very classy and elegant. To top it off they were 65% off, yes 65% PERCENT OFF!. so I picked up those bad boys and they're all mine......

Then I come home and realized what I did so I pick up my knitting and excitedly start working on my lacy dress because I have to to keep myself entertained so I don't go back and go on the hunt for more shoes. I don't know if I loving my lace work, but I don't like to quit so I'm going to give this another couple of rounds before I throw in the towel on this one. I have ripped this piece a couple of times but I 'm getting the hang of it and I do love the dress.

This is the start of the bodice part and I can't find to many knitters that have tried it. So it's hard to find help or ideas.
So let me know what ya 'll think about it.........
