birthday stitch fix

Its been a long time since I'd ordered a Stitch Fix box, I'd kinda forgotten about them. Then I saw Football Fan's post about her box and realized that none of my clothes fit anymore and I'm the worst shopper in the world. I can drive to Salt Lake with the intent of shopping all day, spending some major cash and come home with exactly nothing.

All in all, disappointed in this box. I thought since my stylists name was Jennifer too, she could maybe read my mind. In her defense, I did ask for a cute dress to take to the Galapagos Islands with me for on the ship for dinners and such. 


Maxi Dress - super cute and a fun criss-cross back. Maxi material just doesn't work for me though, clings in all the wrong places. I tried this on on a "I'm feeling mostly skinny" day and I can imagine pulling it on after 2 weeks of vacation. Its going back to where it came from.

Necklace - LOVE except it's like "all dressed up and no place to go". I can imagine wearing this like next to never to work. Although I really liked it, I decided for $32, it also should return to it's motherland.


Printed skirt - gag me with a spoon. clingy, weird shape on me and I would never wear it. Going back
Red top - I really liked this one too, but in the end it came down to was I going to spend $100 on 2 shirts and the answer is no, I didn't. I think if I had a dressier office dress code, this would have for sure been a keeper. This one also was sent back.


Black Top - this picture totally doesn't do this top justice. Its full of detail and varying lengths. The back is semi open with the same fund detail. I'm fairly certain I do not own a bra that I can wear with this shirt, but at the time of sealing the return envelope that meant nothing to me. This baby is staying with me. So work....get ready for me to be fancy!

If you wanna get your Fix......use this referral code, you get something, I get something and I'll love you forever!

    I really like that first dress! But I love your explanation of an "I'm feeling skinny day" because if it's iffy then, after you've had lasagna for lunch and a cookie for dessert (oh wait, that was just me today?) you dang sure won't like it!

CARRY! On Monday my phone rang with an unknown number, I don't usually answer these, so I guess since I was really over the place of employment project I was working on I decided "what the hey" "Hello" "Is this Jennifer blah blah blah?" [ah, crap] (see here how I'm protecting my PII) "Yes, it is" "This is the Sheriff's Office, calling to tell you your concealed carry permit is in" "Great!, I'll be out to pick it up today!" And now, I am officially licensed to conceal carry......and put a rush on that Dirty 30 list item to find a pretty gun and a super cool shoulder sling! And yes, PII....that's what working for the federal government will do to your blog.

What i'm loving wednesday: winter

Image
[Linking up with Jamie at  This Kind of Love for What I'm Loving Wednesday!] One kind word can warm three winter months. ~Japanese Proverb I'm LOVING..........Winter I love winter! but I hate shoveling snow. As it snowed around here (finally AND 2 days in a row!), I thought about my hatred for shoveling snow....I think if it were either light before I went to work or after I got home, maybe shoveling wouldn't be so bad. So snow and winter go hand-in-hand, how can I love winter if I don't like shoveling snow?   Playing in it of course! Christmas markets, throwing snowballs, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, sleigh rides, hot tubbing, cabins and fireplaces, hot snock-o-late, big snowflakes, crisp untouched fields blanketed in fresh snow. It's a clean slate and I love it! Have a great winter and enjoy all it has to offer! Here is a picture I took a while back my way home from snowboarding at Beaver Mountain, Utah (a great little ski area btw). This is...

Losing the farm

Image
When I tell people I work for the Farm Service Agency, I either get a knowing nod like "oh you are one of those government employees" or I get a "what do you actually do?". I've started leading off with working for the US Department of Agriculture because most people have actually heard of that that. We are a small agency within USDA that administers the farm subsidy, disaster and some insurance programs of the Farm Bill. The farm bill is made up of 15 different titles addressing different areas. The 15 titles or parts of the Farm Bill are , the ones that are bolded are the only ones that I directly work with through FSA. Commodity - provides income support to growers of select commodities Conservation - provides funding for farm environmental stewardship thought programs that improve management practices, retire less productive land and protect natural resources Agricultural Trade & Food Aid - funds US agriculture export a...
