pillowcases_pillow_smSays it all.

There is nothing like a night off from mommyhood, wifehood, businesshood.

Nothing like getting human with makeup on and your hair in something other than a pony tail. Getting dressed in something that makes you feel good. So that you remember you are a person and not a machine.

And nothing like a night to escape the madness with some really good friends.

The key to keeping sane is some time to do things at your own speed and for yourself.  Because you’re “no good” to anyone if you aren’t good to yourself too.

Aren’t these pillow cases the best??

    P.S. I love your blog design. I have been trying to figure out how to do something similar and get a more magazine style but so far I am pulling my hair out. I think tonight I will have the excerpts concept pinned down…but that’s it! AWESOME JOB! IT ROCKS!
