It's Gonna Be A Good Day

Here is the view that always makes me smile as I come around the curve. That morning smile always lets me know that it will be a good day. So much hope, so many big things in this view. (also so much traffic...)

Inspiration

Yesterday's post inspired me to get a move on some (by some I mean one) of my goals. I'm wearing my fashion scarf today. I watched the video my mom sent me with all the different ways to wear a scarf and I decided to go with the "infinity" look today. I like it! That makes 2x out of 5 with the fashion scarf and I plan on wearing it again on Sunday. It'll add some pizzazz to my outfit then!
