I have done three of these posts in three days. I am trying really hard to catch up. In real world time, it is actually WEEK 16, not WEEK 7. I have finally gotten a good system down, but in order for it to work, I need to catch up. This is the week after the week in California. I notice three things. I am kind of slob, which I know is related to travel recovery. I really want to warm clothes like I did in California. And the lightening is incredibly unpredictable this time of the year.

This is the first travel experience. I had to resort to some selfies which I am not that get at. The fun thing was that California meant I got to wear warm weather clothing which is always fun for a Northerner. I love California.

It is great to get some new clothes into the rotation. This week, I actually felt like my clothing made sense. I even repeated several pieces, but they look different paired with other garments. Things are coming together. I am kind of amazed at how different I can look day to day.  If you want to follow the action day by day you can Instagram @talesofastitcher.
