Perhaps the only thing I will miss about winter...the boots.

There is a plethora of things I will not miss 

about winter, such as...

the cold, dry skin,

not being able to get outdoors, the ice, 

chapped lips, the freezing wind,

the absence of green grass, the short days,

the constant need to stay backed

up to my heater...this list could go

on and on.  

But one thing I will definitely miss 

about winter is my boots.  Being kinda tall, 

I sometimes have trouble with

my jeans being too short. With boots...this 

problem is solved.  My jeans could come up

past my ankle (which reminds me of my nerdy teenage years before they made longer jeans...the word "high waters" comes to mind.  HA!), but with knee boots...no problem.  

I have been loving the layered look on Pinterest

lately and love how an Oxford shirt looks

underneath a sweater.  Like this...I just think

it looks very spiffy.  

I also like the look of a necklace over 

the ensemble like this...

Here is my take on it...

At least we are on the downhill slope of

winter.  Spring has started and the time to

 hang by the pool is near. 

 Then I will 

be complaining about the grass 

growing too fast I am sure but right now, 

I am ready to mow and sweat 

and then complain

about it.  :)
