Day 89 of #tracywearswool. And I am in the mood for singing… and for Spring in the Pacific Northwest.
We have had some absolutely gorgeous days — up into the 80’s and then down into the 40s. Crazy, so it is best to dress in layers in this neck of the woods.
Spring is sprung, the grass is riz, I wonder where the birdies is?
They are all out here in Portland. Singing their songs, cheering us up.
Sing a Song is a great song by the R&B band Earth, Wind & Fire. It was released on the 1976 double live LP, Gratitude, and it spent two weeks at number one on the R&B singles chart.
And… it’s catchy! Have a listen:
And, Yay!! I found the clicker to my Fugetek tripod —I thought I left it in Portland, but it found its way in my travel kit!! Now, I have two… so I can leave on in the car for travel! Best $20 ever!
For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — Same dress. 100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.
What’s in store today:
It’s a beautiful day, and we have a wonderful drive along the Columbia River to Portland, with a stop in Scappoose at the best Goodwill. And maybe the drive-through taco place!
I’ve owned this baby blue chambray linen button-down shirt from JJill for about 5 years. It has been darned numerous times and is now tattered and threadbare. And yet — I can’t seem to part with it. No special connection — I just love it.
Picked up these CRAZY LuLaRoe leggings at the Goodwill today, and had to swap out my black ones…. I just adore them. Super soft, and fit like a glove.
If you are up for fun and feeling daring, you can get some new LuLaRoe leggings for $15 — random choice/mystery prints!
I am starting to think of what to wear for my 100-day celebration outfit!!
Tutu and Tiara? Pearls and Chucks? Clown Barf? Out of my comfort zone??
We will have to see!!!
Thanks for joining me on day 89 of #tracywearswool.
Stay tuned for the next 11 days!
Be well, and get out there sing.
–Tracy
