  • Yesterday, we went and saw Ponyo.  It was delightful.  I didn't even get ill watching it. (I have all but abandoned watching movies in the theater as I get motion sick watching them.)  I highly recommend it as a sweet feel good movie.

    I also stopped a Penney's and got a few pairs of pants for work as <gulp> I will be starting up in about a week! 

    We also stopped at the ultra-estrogen teen accessory store, Claire's.  Wow! It sure is shiny in there. Dh and Nature Boy were good sports to go in.  Dh tried on some rhinestone studded headbands and Nature Boy picked a huge garland of pearls to throw on dh and add to the look.....It was quite amusing!

    I was looking for something very specific at Claire's, hair spins, and I found them.  Have you seen hair spins before?

    They are basically a bit of bling on a spring that you twist into you hair.  Since I have very dark hair, I thought that hair spins would be quite pretty in my hair.

    The report is that they are quite pretty in my hair indeed.

    I also had the luck to find some Hello Kitty barrettes.  You may or may not know that I am a Hello Kitty fan.  I like to think of myself as a tasteful Hello Kitty fan.  My barrettes reflect my choosing of subtle Hello Kitty items.

    See? Cute + not over the top = tasteful. 

    And I got them for 50% off as part of a buy one/get one promotion.  Actually, several HK items were just plain 50% off, so I may also have bought some earrings, but I will never confess to it!

    And speaking of cute Hello Kitty, when searching for hair spins online, I even saw these....

    Honestly though, I have no idea when or where I would wear such an item...But they sure are cute!  However, they do have the potential of being over the top.

    K....my morning farm chore calls...Must let out the chickens. And then perhaps I will even have some breakfast!
