all the leaves are brown and the sky is grey

wool coat
song of the day: 'california dreamin' by the mamas and the papas
yay! i actually listed a few things in the shop today!! i think i deserve a treat. anyway, i listed these two coats and the tapestry one that i showed you guys the other day. go on over to check them out when you have a chance. no pressure, or anything.
so i thought i'd kinda give an update on my mom. she's doing much better! i spent the night in the hospital with her on friday and stayed through most of saturday. when we went up yesterday to visit, i could already see so much improvement. she has been sleeping better so i know that has a lot to do with it. she was way more alert and joking around. she still can't sit up by herself, but is already working with the physical therapists on a bunch of different exercises. there's still so much to overcome, but i am greatly encouraged with the progress she's made in the last week. i knew she was a strong lady, and my stars, she's just proving it to me by leaps and bounds!

It's so hard to go through parents being sick. I fully sympathies but it's so amazing that you are able to be there with her through the entire thing. I give her my best wishes and am sure everything will turn around.

Oh and PS your coat is so fabulous!

So glad to hear your mom is doing well! She sounds like an amazingly strong person.

Love your dress, and love it with both coats. You temptress you! I'm going to resist even looking in your Etsy shop to see if they're still there, or I might be in trouble.

Lovely coats, the tweed is so fabulous I can't get over it!! You are super sexpot in that dress!!

Your mom sounds like a real fighter, I'm so glad that she is doing better and I wish your family the best in her recovery.

These coats with this dress made my heart stop and my knees weak.

I think I love you.
