Ahh March. I want to like you, but honestly, I’m usually just holding my breath until we get to April, or even May, or even June. Plus, you’re a bit of a tease. But then again, who am I to talk? But really, I am simply not cut out for cold weather, especially when little glimpses of Spring are dangling in front of me. You’re simply just too cold for me. So, I’ll wear green on the 17th and smile, but I’ve already made it through frigid January and February, so really I just want you to be over asap. The end.

photo credit: kevindooley These little Christmas villages are precious. My mother collected these as I grew up and added to it each year. Now we have a miniature Christmas world sprawling underneath our living room tree each year. The grand kids will sit down with their hands in their chins and look at it for hours. Ok, well maybe minutes.

Do you have a great event planned and you do not have what you need to wear. Do not despair! The choice of evening wear in plus sizes has never been greater with the growing number of specialty retailers targeting women who are full figured. If you need a bridesmaid dress, ball gown or a complete set of wedding dresses you can find a lot of options. Before you go to your local mall, you’ll need some guidelines to buy dresses in plus sizes.
Many special events dresses are made by special order only. This means that you will be measured for your dress, and the store will place an order with the manufacturer. Typically, the retailer will request a deposit of up to 50 percent, and the rest for when you get the dress.
Although for some special requests, evening dresses in plus sizes can be ordered and received in less than a month, you can expect a wedding dress for the bride or take six months for delivery. It is therefore essential to plan ahead.
If you do not have time, there are many options to buy dresses off the rack. The stores that cater to women will have different styles of generosity. You can also try searching online retailers, and many people who specialize in size clothing. If you are looking for a specific kind of dress, consider browsing the racks of vintage clothing shops or consult with a dressmaker who can get you designer plus size clothing.
As you sift through the options of clothing, keep in mind the three C’s in the choice of dresses – cut, color and comfort. First, find a style that is flattering to your body type.
Next, consider the color. Maybe you need to get the color scheme right for a wedding party. If you have a free hand to choose the color you want, you can choose a dark color, which will give the illusions of a slimmer body.
Finally, comfort is extremely important because you will probably spend several hours wearing the dress. Try a dress and wear appropriate clothing and see how they fit and feel. If you have to drag strips, or suck in your stomach, you probably have chosen the wrong size and style.
So go ahead and look forward to the occasion. With a little planning, you can have a look that is perfect, giving you confidence at any event.

Mmmm! Ruby red grapefruit – one of my favorite things. The perfect accent for a Saturday or Sunday brunch.

Nothing like a bright orange shower curtain to get you in the mood for a little bathroom and shower remodeling. I’d love to update my bathrooms with anything from brand new Walk In Showers to steam shower units. Ahh! I’d say the money for the remodel is more than worth it. A nice, hot shower is one of the most relaxing parts of my day.

Dogs make some of the best pets for children. They’re playful and full of energy – the perfect thing for kids with worn out parents. I’ve heard that golden retrievers are great for families. My personal favorites are bulldogs, miniature dobermans and little miniature teacup poodles. I also know people who have enjoyed pet ferrets, iguanas and other Weird Pets. Read some fun pet stories and decide which pet YOU want.

When it comes to relaxation (an essential part of self help and therapy), there are quite a few options. A spa getaway, a tropical vacation or even relaxation hypnotherapy can help minimize stress and tension. What are you waiting for? Look into a timeshare, or just get a flight and get packing…

I just love crossword puzzles! I also love board games, party games and other things like basketball, flag football and bowling games. If you like flag football too, learn some cool flag football plays.
