Opulence, Elegance, and Ruin

Utility is when you have one telephone, luxury is when you have two, opulence is when you have three – and paradise is when you have none. ~ Doug Larson

I’ve spent the day hiding from the distractions of the outside world, I know, one day I am going to have to face that five foot nothing bundle of energy known as my mom. Don’t get me wrong, I spoke to her briefly this morning when she asked me to transfer some money into her checking account, the thing is, she needed the money because her doctor told her to get a hearing aid. I transferred her the money, now I’m just scared she’s going to hear the sullen comments I sometimes say under my breath. Besides, I can hardly say I am hiding, I’ve spent the morning catching up on that five loads of laundry and the last of the holiday detritus, so can’t I get a momentary pass on family? Yeah, that’s what she said too.

I visited Uber a couple of times this week, you know me, always late to the blogging scene, so I am sure you’ve seen all this loot before. But there is something so, what does my besty Draakje Dailey always call me? yeah, that’s it “Arty-Farty” about it, I just couldn’t pass up blogging it. I kinda like being able to find items from multiple designers at one location and they inter-connect (in my mind). I reckon I like the way this one turned out and I hope you do too. (Some Photoshop was involved, but not much). I hope your weekend is of the opulent kindOutfit:</
