Optimistic Monday

June 24, 2013

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend!  I had a pretty relaxed one.  We didn’t do much during the days because it’s so darn hot and humid out.  I walked early in the morning on a shady path and didn’t really care for it too much.  I dread the hot and humid Texas summer.   We did watch 2 movies in the evenings.  On Friday night we stayed in a watched Les Miserable on DVD.  On Saturday night we saw the new Man of Steel movie at the theater.  

Goals for last week:

1.  Multiple blog posts
Yes!

2.  Multiple videos
Yes!

3.  Mail a few packages
All are packed up and ready to ship.  They should be in the mail by the time this post goes up.

4.  Walk 3 times
Yes!

These are my crazy and colorful new running/walking shoes.
They are the Asics Gel Noosa Tri 8 and they match EVERYTHING!

5.  Finish up thank you cards
Not yet, still have a few more left.

6.  Make appointment for showroom visit for master bath remodel
Yes!

7.  Look into cooking class to maybe take with my daughter(s)
No, we just don’t seem to have any extra time right now.  We’ll have to resort to YouTube or Pinterest if we want to try out a new recipe for now.

Goals for this week:
This is a hard week for me to set goals so I’m not even going to.  I have college orientation with my daughter 2 days.  Then I will be watching my son play in a golf tournament for 2 more of the days this week.  That means I’ll be doing lots of walking while trying to stay cool in the Texas heat.

I also have an interior designer coming over on Monday evening to look at my master bathroom and help get the ball rolling on my remodel.  I am SO excited to get a new bathroom.  I’ve never liked the one I have since we moved into this house 7 years ago.  I plan to get TONS of cabinet space to store my obsession with makeup and beauty products.

Have a great week!!

Happy new month friends! I’m sharing a cute outfit Happy new month friends! I’m sharing a cute outfit that’s perfect for a summer day of running my errands. My new large terry cloth tote is so fun and unique. It’s great for travel or even a day at the beach too.

Anybody traveling for the 4th of July weekend? We’re going to our usual destination where we hang with our kids and grandkids to enjoy the celebration which means I will be busy today getting ready to go.🎆

😎 Be sure to check out the fun quilted tote. Comment for the LINK.👜

Thank you @seamariedesigns for the beautiful bag!
Dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in one of Dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in one of my favorite vacation places wearing one of my favorite dresses with my most favorite person in the world. 

Scroll to the right to see the back of this gorgeous pleated dress that packs into a little pouch making it travel friendly. It’s currently on sale too!☀️

Comment for the LINK.

The maxi dress has a raw hem so it’s super easy to cut without having to get it hemmed. That worked out perfectly for me and my petite 5’1” height. I cut 3 inches off the bottom of the dress and now it fits me exactly how I like it. I love the color too!

I’m loving the back of the dress so I thought I’d share it in a video when we were walking back from the restaurant after dinner. The restaurant is called Hacienda and it’s by the marina in Cabo. We’ve been going there for years. This trip we went there for brunch too and it was excellent! Highly recommend this restaurant for breakfast, lunch or dinner if you’re ever in Cabo.
Beach vacation makeup is all about looking fresh, Beach vacation makeup is all about looking fresh, glowy, and effortless. ☀️🌴

*Let me know if you want DETAILS on what I used.*

Whether I’m spending days or nights by the water, I skip the heavy, full-coverage products and reach for lightweight favorites that let my skin breathe while still giving me that healthy, radiant glow.

Think: sheer coverage, a touch of bronzer, creamy blush, and plenty of luminosity. The goal isn’t a perfect makeup look—it’s looking like the best version of yourself while enjoying every minute of vacation.

Are you a full-face-on-vacation girl, or do you keep your makeup light and simple when you’re at the beach? Tell me below! ⬇️

We always have our favorite restaurants that we go We always have our favorite restaurants that we go to when we’re in Cabo. Toro is one of them and I finally started making my husband take a picture out front these last few years. Swipe to see the previous years and read the captions for each slide to see what I love about this restaurant… ➡️

(Separate picture captions is a new Instagram feature if you didn’t already know that)

I love that they have live music playing out on the patio almost every time we’re there. The band was exceptional this time. They played cover songs and sounded amazing.🎶

The food is excellent. I love that they have some vegetarian options. I always get their delicious beet salad. This time I also got the vegetarian empanadas and had a big scoop of mashed potatoes which were heavenly with crisped parmesan cheese on top.😋

This outfit checked all the boxes for my flight to Cabo, brunch and a few hours of looking at real estate. 

@coldwatercreek has some great options for layering any time of year. And I must admit, I’m kind of obsessed with this linen jacket. I might need to add another color.😉
I’m going on vacation to Cabo, but I could also go I’m going on vacation to Cabo, but I could also go to a garden party, a bridal shower, date night or even wear this beautiful ruffle tiered dress to a summer wedding. Talk about versatile! I played it up with some fun colorful accessories too.

I’m a petite 5’1” and am wearing size small, so it’s longer on me. Dress gifted by @maggylondon 💗

I’m 61 and I love wearing a good midi or maxi dress. If that’s your thing too, be sure to follow because I have a bunch of new ones coming up here on my page.
