An unusual Monday

Have ya seen my latest feature??? well check out my friend Yolanda at Diva in Deep Thought. She did a post about the color mustard. In her post she did a roundup of her fav outfits in the blogosphere.. and I was included in the ranks! Thanks Yolanda!

SATURDAY: This weekend has been a whirlwind! What started out as a busy weekend has turned out to be a busier week.  I did a nice photoshoot for my cousin (Godbrother) and his wife on Saturday. I'll post the pics on a later post. Then I stopped past my mother's house because she wasnt feeling well (more details on this later).  Then I stopped at my Aunt's house to pick up some cleaning supplies. And then I went to a birthday party a day early, lol. Yea, my friend Jamaica was having a bday party for her son. I went on Saturday, but the party was on Sunday. too funny! Here is what I looked like running around the city.

 Check out what Im using to tell time these days. Hubby snagged this exquisite time piece for me while we were on our anniversary vacay.  I had this watch on my Christmas list.. and I was gonna hold off and wait until then to wear it, but he said I could rock it now.. im sure there will be plenty other gifts under our fat tree, lol!

 

 My BFFs will be ecstatic that I have traded in my ultimate favorite watch in the whole wide world (black patent Casio Baby G-Shock) for this delightful white Fossil watch. Dont get to excited, you may see the black one again. I adore that watch. It was the first gift that Hubby ever got me.

 SUNDAY: I had planned to attend a wedding with Hubby, but my mother called before noon and wanted me to take her to the ER. What started as conjunctivitis (pink eye) about a month ago had gone misdiagnosed. When we got to the ER she was in severe pain. After they gave her medication for pain, she had to get a laser procedure to relive the pressure in her eye. This ordeal took all day, but atleast by the time I got her home and settled she was feeling much better (minus a little nausea from the pain meds). It was rough. But mom had some serious breakthroughs on healthcare and support from doctors and the medical profession.  She had a different perspective. I guess you could say it was an "eye opening experience"
There wasnt an outfit to show for all these errands.. sorry.

MONDAY: I HAD TO GO TO WORK! aaauugh! Yup, on my usual day off, I had to trek into work for a training. Luckily I knew about this training before I left for vacation so I was refreshed and well prepared to attend the training. Which was pretty good. Although I had to leave a noon to take Mom back for a follow up appointment. She is doing excellent! And we enjoyed a great lunch after the doctor's visit.  I still got home the same time I would have if I stayed at work all day.
