Sometimes I get frustrated with things. I've got it pretty good, I realize that, but I do get annoyed at the money I spend flying down to Florida to see my husband Jason, the time I am missing with my little family, and the pounding head aches I get from staring at line drawings all day at work. My last few hours with Jason are always hard as I feel like I'm on this weird roller coaster because I am overwhelmingly sad and happy all at once, and I really don't want to let that sad part out at all. It has been 10 months now and I am still not used to this whole thing, nor will I ever be, but I am strong, and I carry on. Our last day was spent shopping together, (I love shopping with Jason, he is the best stylist ever, and a lot of the dresses you all have commented you love were his choices for me .... including this dress and the ice cream print one from yesterday. Did I mention we shop on Modcloth over Skype? Yeah....) eating Pinkberry, walking Raynor, and stopping by this little lake as our last stop before I flew out. Florida really is beautiful with tons to do, and it is always extremely hard to leave and come back to Harrisburg.
So you'll note no bag here. One great thing about having Jason around is that I don't really need a bag. When we went shopping, I didn't take my bag! We have the same credit cards, so why bother? Plus, this dress has pockets big enough for my cell.

Beautiful outfit girl, the pictures are beautiful wtih the light. So I don't quite get the whole story, but I do hope you have a fantastic time in Florida and are happy when you get home... and I'm totally lost as to who Jason is haha :)

Oh man! These dresses are so great! I don't know which one I like better, the scottie or the cones... I am rather new to your blog, and so I have to ask, and I'm sure you get this all the time so I'm sorry! Do you live apart because of a job?
ReplyDeleteYou two have such good taste! I especially like your jewelry today, that bunny and bow ring are so darn cute!

Such a lovely outfit! That dress color and pattern is just so much fun! You seriously have the cutest style!
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine having to travel and live apart as you and your husband do, and I admire your strength. And I love that your man helps shop for your clothes too! My husband has better taste than I do and always picks out the best stuff (if not a little low cut ;)
ReplyDeleteYou're a really pretty girl. I love your style ^^
ReplyDeleteAre those little scottie dogs I see? Hehe! Your dress is so cute! And you husband totally should get points for saving you from carrying your bag around. Isn't it super refreshing to just go bag-less now and then??

Ahh, I LOVE the dog print...so adorable! I can't imagine how hard it must be for you and Jason to be long distance like this! I hate when my hubby is away for just a few days.

ReplyDeleteYou have some seriously awesome happening like your hair cut and perfect ability to choose an awesome dress! Oh, and your husband sounds like an absolute dream boat!

Such a cute outfit ! Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving your sweet feedback.
ReplyDeleteIt must be really hard to stay apart from your husband. I wish for you all the best and wish that very soon both of you can get together and stay in the same place. My mom and dad stayed separately for 10 years due to their jobs but now they are together .
Have a nice day!
love,

Jason sounds like a really fun hubby! I'm sorry you're feeling frustrated lately, I know the feeling of seeing someone special with that happy you're there, sad you have to go emotions. It's hard! But it sounds like you have the routine down.
ReplyDeleteallisoncelestia.blogspot.com
That last day sounds wonderful, but so sorry you have to go through missing him! I have had long distance relationships before and they definitely can be tough! But from what I have learned, the first few days back are always the hardest, and then you get back into your own independent groove and work on planning the next time you'll see each other! But still- UGH!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, SO cool your hubby has such great taste! The dress is adorable (the previous ice cream one too!) I am sending positive thoughts your way!
Happy Friday!

When I actually do go shopping with Scott, he tells me which dresses he loves! And I shop at Modcloth once in a while, but not over skype. We do the email back and forth thing or gmail chat! Oh, I wish I could say it gets easier, but I think the take-away is that you just appreciate each other that much more and it always feels like a "honeymoon"? -
ReplyDeleteAwww, I looove that ModCloth dress. I have been admiring it for a while. :) You look really cute!
ReplyDeleteYour dress is so so so cute! Your man has great taste. xx
